Well I suppose any person could wear 2 of more of each item.
But bracelets also coincide with gloves. So it would have to be a completely separate bracelet slot. Which would then make prices rise even further on onyx bracelets.

Now, amulets would also be affected by this. UNLESS you can't have 2 of the same ring -type or amulet on.

I could think of one or two combinations of different amulets that would be nice, but there isn't as variety in neck-wear compared to rings. 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.

I support one on each hand, along with an idea. You could have a ring on every finger (excluding the thumb), but you could choose two - when not in combat - to "activate." This means that only two would have the stat boosts, but all of them could be worn in case you want to change the stats and.. stuff.

I think that two rings would be a great idea, two slots in the ring place (I wear 2 rings on one hand, rl).
I'm not sure if it should be limited to one combat and one support though. I think any two rings could be used together as long as they are not the same ring and the bonuses don't stack.
But perhaps I am not understanding which rings you are calling combat and which support. Slayer and Dueling rings would seem to both be support rings but I often use them together for teleporting and banking. It would be nice to be able to wear both so as not to use up and inventory slot.
There are other examples of two support rings or two combat rings being used together. It may be that in the use of combat rings you might not be able to take the bonuses from both rings if they overlap, only the higher bonus of one of the rings may be counted if each combat ring gave the same type of bonus. I haven't really thought about that but just an idea that came to me so that wearing two combat rings would not be overpowered.

By combat ring, I mean any that has stats like Fremennik or imbued rings from MA, but doesn't do anything else (like the explorer ring).
And that's not a bad idea.

I agree with this idea. It would be nice to have a one-click bank to Castle Wars, and also be able to wear a Beserker Ring when I need to. ;)
Perhaps the different rings could be set up to only go in certain slots, and the "support" rings could be used for one slot and the "combat" rings for another.
Then again, this is the sort of dichotomy one faces when deciding which Magic Spellbook to use- the utility of Lunars, the versatility of the Normal Spellbook, or the sheer power of the Ancient spellbook. Perhaps having to choose which ring to use and whether or not to sacrifice an inventory space for an extra makes setting up your combat gear all that more interesting? ^_^
Something to consider, but I don't think having two Rings, one support and one combat would be that OP. Besides, with the Combat Update we have fingers! Only makes sense we should be able to use some of them. ;)

At least lunar magic has spellbook swap :p 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.
