[QUOTE="BloodPrincess, post: 5466375, member: 6670011"] oh, i am not denying they have their own slots, but they are actually covering each other, so by the sounding of the rules, if you cant use a magic shield and magic bracers at the same time even though they are only in the general vaccinty of each other why can you use a magic ring even though a magic glove could be completely covering it.
