Partners in Crime: the Deadmines Ring and Its Missing Half

The first ring many players get in World of Warcraft: Forever drops in the Deadmines, and it is half of a set. The other half needs level 60 and has not been found. Together the two rings, Partners in Crime, make a strength build that pays off at the end of the game, so a Deadmines drop stays worth keeping.

First Mate Band

Drops from Mr. Smite, the first mate in the Deadmines, and requires level 17. Its current stats are in the card above; they have already changed once during the beta.

Band of the Better Half

Requires level 60 and makes your attacks 1.2% less likely to be dodged or parried (some tooltips show this as +12 Expertise). Its source is unknown. The name and the set suggest a pair: someone connected to Mr. Smite, and players expect a level 60 dungeon or raid boss.

The set bonus

With both rings you get extra Strength, and your melee hits can make you Angry: +50 Strength for 10 seconds. The exact numbers are in the cards above.
