Should I get Pontiff's left eye?

You should get Pontiff's Left Eye if you use fast, multi-hitting weapons (like twinblades or daggers) against groups, as it provides HP recovery on successive hits, but it's generally mediocre for slow weapons or single targets unless you're aiming for the trophy/achievement or exploit its "mega heal" bug by hitting multiple enemies at once. For general PvE, other rings often offer better consistent healing, but its potential for massive heals with groups makes it situationally strong.

Is Pontiff's left eye good?

The Pontiff's Left Eye ring in Dark Souls 3 is situationally good, offering small HP regen (around 30 HP) with successive hits that's powerful with fast weapons (like Sellsword Twinblades) against groups or bosses, but generally weak with slow weapons; it has a notorious "mega heal" bug where hitting multiple enemies (even just two) with the final hit can heal thousands of HP, making it potentially game-breaking but inconsistent. It's best for builds focusing on rapid attacks, especially dual-wields, or for players seeking the achievement, but otherwise outclassed by other rings for general utility.
