New zOMG Integrity / Abuse Rings


Integrity Ring / Abuse Ring
User Image User Image

Hey there everyone! Earlier today, it appears as if two new rings have been granted to some users that play zOMG. Those two rings happen to be Integrity, and Abuse.

Now at this moment, a user can only have one of these two rings. The Integrity Ring was given to users who had at least one level 10 ring and had no rings above CL 10.0. The Abuse Ring however was given to users who had at least one ring "illegitimately" over CL 18.0. Because these rings are soulbound, it's very unlikely that a user will be able to have both of these rings unless the soulbound is removed at a later date.

At the moment, not a lot of information regarding these new rings are out, however it's clear that the Integrity Ring raises most stats quite a bit and that the Abuse Ring reduces stats a lot. Below is a list of the increases/decreased stats of the two new rings. Please note, the following may not be 100% accurate but are definitely close.

Integrity Ring Stats:
Accuracy: +30
Dodge: +30
Willpower: +30
Speed: +0
Weight: +35
Max Health: +0
Health Regen: +8
Luck: +8
Stamina Regen: +0.8

Abuse Ring Stats:
Accuracy: -20
Dodge: -20
Willpower: -30
Speed: -0
Weight: -25
Max Health: -0
Health Regen: -50
Luck: -5
Stamina Regen: -5

From what I know, these rings cannot be obtained if you haven't had a ring CL 10.0 or above yet seeing as how they're soulbound and all CL 10.1+ rings will be removed soon in preparation for Deadman's Shadow.

Rings, Glitches, and Integrity


Greetings zOMG community!

As everyone knows, the intended maximum level for the game is 10 both for players and rings. Unfortunately, we've had a couple glitches in the game which, when combined, allowed players to gain access to rings which were not intended to exist. Using these glitches also allowed these players to exceed the maximum intended overall level or reach level 10 with some extra powerful rings and a level 1 fleet feet, etc. Lamentably, we've been incredibly short on resources and haven't had any development time to patch up the glitches. Fortunately very few players took advantage of these glitches to illicitly gain such rings. Still, we're sad if even one person is taking advantage of these glitches and gaining access to something illegitimate. We, as designers of the game, feel that this is not honest or fair behavior.

In addition, players who can instantly reach any level up to 18 have the ability to bypass any future content we create. This is a tremendous obstacle to new areas and new encounters. There's no way to balance a level 12 zone if people can start directly at level 12 rather than working their way through the zone. Thus, for game balance reasons as well as glitch exploitation, a remedy was necessary.

Various measures were discussed including banning accounts or removal of gold, total charge, orb, and loot gains made while in possession of illegitimate rings. We settled on a very lenient policy of allowing almost everyone who has exploited the glitches to keep their account and all gains from these rings except for the rings themselves. We're taking the following steps:

  • The glitches that we know of to get rings over level 10 have been fixed
  • Rings which have been gained illegitimately have been removed
  • All those who were in possession of an illegitimate ring have been granted a new level 1 ring: Abuse Ring
  • All those who had at least one level 10 ring but were not in possession of an illegitimate ring have been granted a new level 1 ring: Integrity Ring

Once again, I'm glad to say that only a very small percentage of the zOMG community engaged in the dubious behavior of gaining rings over level 10. We're proud that the community as a whole share our goals of a fun and fair game. We hope that you all enjoy the new Integrity ring. And to everyone: we're already in the testing phase of the new area so hold tight. Deadman's Shadow is approaching!

Edit: The ring deleting and granting process is slow and it'll be running through tomorrow probably.

Well I found mine by looking in my inventory. But if you have one, it should be in your backpack ^^. As far as I know, it may take awhile before you get granted yours if you don't have it.

From what I know, these rings cannot be obtained if you haven't had a ring CL 10.0 or above yet seeing as how they're soulbound and apparently all CL 10.0 rings will be removed soon in preparation for Deadman's Shadow.

* Please note, this article may be modified as new information is released.

What exactly does that mean?
Like.. the rings that we've worked to get to 10.0 are going to be unavailable?

I'm not entirely sure if this is a rumor or not, but I'm trying to gather as much information on this topic as I can. I think that duplicates of 10.0 or above will be removed. I'm sure to get more information on the topic soon ^^, this was quite rushed as I was trying to get the info ASAP.

This may be a silly question, but is the Integrity ring better, worse or the same than the Fitness ring? I'd just like to know if possible before I chuck orbs into it like crazy whee

The Integrity Ring is better than Fitness, however the effects can be stacked on top each other if you wear both ^^.
