| Field | Value |

| Stage | Mid raids (AQ) |

Who needs the item
Hit rating on rings is scarce in Vanilla, yet hit is exactly what melee lack before the cap. Ring of the Godslayer covers part of the hit cap while also adding crit and strength — an ideal offensive finger slot for warriors and rogues heading into BWL.
For the "melee warrior and rogue" role this item is a clear step forward, worth keeping Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj in your weekly rotation until you move on to AQ40 gear.
Farming it on x5
Ring of the Godslayer is farmed by clearing Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj. On an x5 server the raid goes faster, meaning more attempts at the drop than on classic realms.
How to speed it up:
- Agree on loot priority — every melee DPS in the raid competes for a ring (finger slot) from this boss.
- Until you get it, use dungeon and reputation alternatives to keep your stats respectable.
- Consistent full Ruins clears directly raise your odds: the more you go in, the more chances at the drop.
Bottom line
Ring of the Godslayer is a benchmark item for its slot at the Mid raids (AQ) stage. Coming from the accessible AQ20 raid makes it a convenient target: a 20-man is easier to assemble than a 40-man, and the boost to your role is tangible. For a guild learning Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, hunting this item is a good reason to sharpen the fight and gear up the group.
