update!
Hurray they updated it and put in the correct info, thanks Nexon!

original post:
Anyone there at Nexon able to tell us whether or not the ring of torment will reduce % damage taken, as is described on the main site for marvel? It would appear to be a falsified description of the item's true effects. The items true effect is to grant a skill that reduces your damage by 30% but granting an exp buff for +15%.

    It's misleading, there's an image from the ring and it says that it reduced your OWN damage by 30%.

    the main website for marvel machine states it reduces "damage taken" by 30%." but that is a completely false statement!

    Turns out it is a cash equip ring that buffs you with +15% exp but reduces your damage by 30%. It is improperly worded on the main site of what it actually does lol. Got excited for nothing.

    [Updated January 16] The Ring of Torment Coupon: Gives a ring that reduces the player's damage dealt by 30% while granting a 15% base EXP increase.- from the main site

    I believe it reduces your damage by 30% but you gain a base increase of exp by 15%, at least that's how I interpret "damage dealt", otherwise it'd say "damage received."

    technically if what they're saying is correct, its a sucky p2w item cuz you do less dmg but in exchange for 15% exp
