Or you could always maybe parse on like eps during a trial? With dia and decent gearing you could still cap Ratio and if it's a mob with low lvl difference your Cratio wont vary much so you will still have a not huge difference for pdif possibilities. Idk going to bed.

If you can get say like idk 20-30 SA jumps on lvl 0 mob I think I should be able to do something to help figure out a more percise jump formula

Anyways I'm giong to bed will look at it when I get up.

Has anyone considered that it effects the enmity loss on jumps?

I'm actually more inclined to think that it only affects Jump itself.

Either way, the likely answer is hidden effect: wastes an inventory slot.

I did testing on this ring like 5-6 years ago and found that it didn't increase damage or crit rate, but since I was testing on EP robber crabs, I narrowed down the results to the following:

Increased Accuracy
Increased Attack

Both are hard to test and I'm pretty sure Jumps have a native acc bonus associated with them(they buffed up Jump accuracy back in 2003.) It's probably something minute like Attack+5 or Accuracy+10 on Jump or something minor.

Since its a level 50 Ring, Im going to suggest it may have the same type of effect as the AF feet.



From Wiki:
Enhances Jump Effects
â– Grants a 10% attack bonus to Jump.



I'm willing to bet it has the same type of effect, but with a smaller bonus.
Maybe like 3%.

A percentage of your total attack added would be a very small number anyway, so what the above poster says is probably correct.

Honestly, has anyone figured out what this does? Probably still junk, but just wondering the application of it.

According to the Famitsu 2013 Premier Guide:

HP 75% or less and TP 999 or less, raises Jump attack power. JP wiki references the drachen greaves, so it is probably the same power as them.
