Man I gotta tell you this got me excited when I read it.  Blizzard had announced that they would add in a 4th ring option to the Ashen Verdict’s reputation rewards.  Currently the only DPS ring available is mostly aimed at rogues and hunters, with DPS strength based rings for DPS warriors, death knights and retribution pallies.  Well the wait is over finaly as Zarhym, an official poster on the Blizzard forums made this statement.

Here are the stats for the strength-based melee DPS rings coming in the next minor patch:

Requires The Ashen Verdict – Friendly

+91 Stamina

I don’t know about you melee dps, but this makes me pretty damn excited, even the lowest level ring for friendly is going to give me a mega strength boost on my DK…expect to see some bigger dps number from melee in the coming weeks and we upgrade our shiny new rings!
