Path of Exile is a free-to-play game in the dark fantasy genre released in 2013. Players have the option to choose from seven different classes of exiles, all of which offer a unique experience and different base attribute alignments, being Strength, Dexterity and Intelligence. The only class that has all three basic attributes is the Scion. In Path of Exile, players roam a procedurally generated landscape inspired by classics such as Diablo and others. In this game, items are randomly generated and have storage capacities called "gem sockets", which contain skill gems. These gems can be attached to casings of armor, weapons, and even certain types of rings available to the player.

Anointings are another type of upgrade available for your exile. You can use them to provide buffs to your exile by modifying certain items. There are 13 different oils that can be used in Path of Exile, and up to three of them can be combined at any time to create an anointing. One of the best ways to apply ointments is to put them on rings, which you can equip two of at the same time. Here are the seven best ring ointments in Path of Exile.

Choosing the best anointings for your PoE rings

When anointing your rings in Path of Exile, be sure to research the boons you receive. Also, check again to see if you miss the chance to anoint your rings with a more beneficial enchantment. Without further ado, here are the seven best ring ointments in PoE, listed in random order.

The final anointing on our list is one of the most impactful. When applied, the Meteor Extra Meteor Tower buff will drop an extra Meteor on your enemies.
