Merry Christmas. The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, Fulton, and the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

Depending what you're doing and what your role is - Asylum Surgeon or Superior Leviathan + Vigour (as a switch when using ultimate abilities). If you're risking a lot and aren't confident staying above 0 hp during whatever you're doing then use Ring of Death instead of Asylum/Leviathan.

Ring of Wealth is a waste as you can simply use Luck potion now (gives the same effect).

Ferocious and Slayer Rings can both be added to Slayer Helm and are only necessary when slaying.

You can carry rings such as Tokkul-Zo and 6th Age Circuit in your inventory when you need a teleport, and Explorers Ring is only really necessary during herb runs, the other effects of it are negligible, just like the other rings you have mentioned.

Yes they all have different effects, but that doesn't mean you should be able to wear them all at once. Having more fingers than the number of rings you're using isn't valid reasoning for this, by that logic we could fit into multiple layers of Armour too. I think that it's better that the game requires a situational preference, rather than 1 set up for everything.

Having 1 additional ring slot (and most likely restrictions on what types of rings can go in that slot) doesn't create a universal set up, particularly for half a number of other rings you didn't mention that have niche uses or are used by mid-low level players who don't have any number of the higher level rings you mentioned, or other items that make those rings redundant for high level players.

If we could use a second ring, those players might bring a ring of devotion along at gwd, or a columbarium ring for vyres, or a ring of life when bossing, or the asylum doctor ring for some mystery meat. The explorer's ring is also useful for its free alchs, or making extra runes when using the wicked hood daily.

Furthermore, other convenience items (bonecrusher, charm imp etc.) were converted to pocket, and even toolbelt items to save inventory space. Being able to wear a second ring would be along the same principle. It's also less like wearing layers of armor, and more like wearing one boot or glove. The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, Fulton, and the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.
