Ring of kinship/Classes

As of 19 July 2010, the Ring of Kinship can be customized to specific roles which assist a player by giving certain bonuses when exploring dungeons. There are twelve roles, divided into four categories: Melee, Ranged, Mage and Skiller. The player can only use one role at a time, with each role having the ability to be upgraded up to tier 10, similar to items in the Dungeoneering skill. Every time the ring is upgraded, it requires a specific amount of Dungeoneering tokens, shown below. This is a members only function; non-members receive the "You must be on a member's server to use this function" message in their chat box if they choose the "Customise" option. Also, even though a role might be selected and "in-use," it MUST be worn like most other rings to receive that bonus. Furthermore, each player has the option to reset their classes. This will reset all roles and refund all tokens, however this can only be done once.

Magic

Blazer

Chance of dealing 50% additional damage over time with elemental spells.

Details: When the effect is activated, you will see a small white aura on the monster with rocks flying up, dealing 10% (rounded down) of your last hit every game-tick up to 5 times. This effect can carry over to the next activation. The effect is especially useful against stragglers, as you don't need waste a spell on them since they will die soon, allowing you to attack something else.

Example: Assuming every cast activates the effect, here is how the damage would look like. Brackets indicate simultaneous damage. Each spellcast takes 5 game ticks.

252 (Fire Surge), 25, 25, 25, 25, [25, 144 (Fire Surge)], 14, 14, 14, 14, [14, 189 (Fire Surge)], 18, 18, 18, 18, 18

Tier	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
Chance of dealing extra damage	5%	10%	15%	20%	25%	30%	35%	40%	45%	50%

Blaster

Chance to slow your opponents' attack speed and snare them with elemental spells.

Tier	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
Chance of slowing/snaring	12%	14%	16%	18%	20%	22%	24%	26%	28%	30%

Blitzer

Chance of casting elemental spells faster.

Details: On success, the ring allows elemental spells to be cast 1 game-tick faster. That is, 5 ticks to 4 ticks or 3 seconds to 2.4 seconds. On tier 10, the average casting speed is increased by 25% (5/4 casting rate), making this class slightly more powerful than the Blazer class, albeit at a much higher rune cost. See the talk page for analysis.

Tier	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
Chance of faster casting	10%	20%	30%	40%	50%	60%	70%	80%	90%	100%

Gatherer

Chance of extra resources (no experience for extra resources), Damage reduction upon failing a skill task (Same percentage for both).

Tier	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
