How good of an upgrade is
Ashen Band of Vengances
, considering it has no strength for a Ret Paladin.
Varitul
is my char. I realize it would probably be a upgrade over my 219 ring, but if I were to get The Lady's Promise from H HoR, would it then be better, or its upgradable counterparts?

Wait for the STR ring if that's what you want. Switching rings (at this time) costs 200G.

The ring is very good. Use it. As far as I know, there is no set date on the str ring, and that might end up not being so awesome if they put ArP on it. And 200g is pocket change.

Actually I did the math and if they ever did give us a pure ring it would look like this at i277

Oh noes muh strength! So spreading out the stats is actually giving ret a free 84 stam after ret weights are all applies. (original gives 1,942 this gives 1940)

Well, I was close. They decided RET should tank now and gave more itemization to stam.
/facepalm
THIS IS WHY AGILITY GEAR IS BETTER YOU #$%^ERS. BECAUSE YOU DO THIS! THIS IS WHY WE CANT HAVE NICE THINGS

Actually the strength ring is better for warriors and death knights, paladins don't because we require less agi per crit %
Don't give blizz a reason to nerf us.

Im hoping for a buff to DStr.

That would be a DPS buff, though. And even though our gearing is all kinds of messed up we're somehow more or less where we should be DPS wise. I doubt Blizzard is going to tinker with a DPS system that works to fix a gearing system that is kind of limping along any time soon.

They could just nerf agi and buff str for us. Keep us pretty much the same but not getting in !@#$%fights with druids and rogues. Come out with 3% less crit but 150 more AP. SOMEHOW!

Ah, with a nerf to agi. Regearing like that will shoot our crit to hell, but as long as we crit enough to get AoW procs every 15 seconds (so like... 3% minimum?) that would work pretty easily.
I'd rather they just keep crying though, their tears make excellent polish for my ret gear.
