1 dc was not noticeable lol
you bought a power ring over a d ring because in total, with the complete set upgraded (2x d rings -> p rings.. claw neck -> g bead etc) you would have about 5-15 or something more dc, which was slightly noticeable.
"and any spells will be easier to balance with lower stats as theres less of a range the formula has to work for"
Ive no idea what your on about here really... less of a range the formula has to work for?? makes no sense at all.
There really is no difference from low rate to high rate, it can all be sorted and balanced, its down to the server maker.
The only real issue is pot regeneration, where at level 40 pots will regene nicely, but with like 40k hp the pot regene is still the same speed, thus takin forever to fill 40k hp
