Which sylph ring is best for DAs?

Title. Is boss or max/min critical ring better? Why do people say min critical is better? I have the zero gratias ringthat gives 15% critical already but only 107% boss and 50% critical in total so not sure what to pick.

Boss damage can be sourced from Nebs/Potentials and does end up hitting diminishing returns. Min/Max crit damage can only be sourced from certain skills and is really useful if you have a decent crit rate. If you're bossing with SE in your party, go for crit damage.

Depends, if you boss alot, go for %boss. Aim for crit if you want to be able to kill mobs faster. PDR is also helpful for bossing but normally you start maxing this out after you have a high % in boss.

I have about 124% boss, but I would still like to hit harder on bosses, so I went for the crit ring. My crit rate is similar to yours.

I chose the thunder (critical chance) ring because my critical rate is sitting at like 45% right now and i still have a long ways to go before 100% crit.
However, in the long term, bossing damage and minimum critical damage is probably a better choice =)

minimum critical damage, because maximum critical damage does nothing if your max crits already hit cap.

and iirc DA already has a good amount of PDR so i don't think PDR is a good choice for the sylph ring.
