Aiming or Timing? RotR is a funny weapon. I've not done any serious research into it but it always seems to be the only offensive attack that will punch through the combat/spell protections of enemy mages, liches, vampires (bodhi) etc. This excludes area offensive spells.

For this reason, i always carry it around (two of them if i don't feel like roleplaying) as a backup weapon for those times when nothing else seems to work. As for the aiming, the only factor that should affect this is standard spell targeting issues (invis, sanctuary). Timing is the critical part. The bolt from the ring is painfully slow moving and usually requires a second thought as to when the perfect moment would be. After all, you've only got one shot.
