Mo.Co Ring Reset Explained: Power Loss, Season Plans

ECHO Gaming Staff April 17, 2025 Gaming 29 days ago

    TL;DR: Smart Rings vanish—or drop to level 1—when an Elite Hunter season ends. That could strip up to 50 % damage, crit and cooldown gains. Supercell may offset the loss by boosting weapon, gadget and passive caps next season, but it hasn’t shared firm details yet.

What Are Smart Rings?

Smart Rings are slot‑based items that drop once you unlock the Elite Hunter Program. They grant chunky perks—think +50 % primary‑weapon damage, +15 % attack speed or cooldown cuts—and scale up to level 100. The catch? They’re marked “temporary gear,” so they don’t belong to you forever.

The Reset Question: Why Worry?

Supercell’s support page spells it out: when the season flips, Smart Rings reset. That likely means two things:

Your current Rings disappear or revert to level 1.
All the damage, crit‑rate and utility they gave you also vanishes.

If the Corrupted Cave or late‑game Rifts were tuned around Ring bonuses, players could struggle to clear the same stages on Day 1 of the new chapter.

Possible Safety Nets

Supercell has not confirmed its plan, but there are a few ways it could soften the blow:

Raise gear caps. Bumping weapons like Technofist from 30 → 40 (or higher) would shift the power grind to permanent items.
Add new Rings with balanced numbers. Fresh mechanics each season keep builds fresh without runaway stat creep.
Retune enemy health. Lowering thresholds in early weeks lets everyone catch up before difficulty climbs again.

Season Length & Power Creep

The current chapter shows “???” for an end date, but most fans expect a quarterly cadence. A three‑month cycle keeps the grind meaningful without feeling rushed. The risk: if caps jump 10 levels every quarter, weapons could leap 40 levels per year—raising questions about long‑term balance.

Community Voices

Reddit threads and Discord chats echo the same concern: a hard reset might push casual players away. Content creators have suggested shifting part of the grind toward Chaos Shards—letting hunters choose which item gets a level jump—and adding more permanent progression paths to smooth seasonal cliffs.

Verdict

Smart Rings are a thrilling power spike, but their seasonal expiry is the game’s biggest unknown. Until Supercell details how gear progression will scale, every Elite Hunter should prepare for a Day‑1 damage dip next chapter and keep a stash of Chaos Cores ready for the next climb.
