We don't know if it's a matter of 'the ring refuses to be equipped, becoming too small to fit on your finger', 'You put in on. You hear a loud voice declaring you unworthy. You pass out.' or more a 'you've put it on, but lack the ability to master it and draw on its power'.Once we know what power level rings have, and how the level limitation is explained in game, then we'll be able to let rip. Until then we're just speculating.And limiting the items to one attack bonus, one AC bonus, one Save bonus, no stats buffs but you can still equip and use other cool, optional seem to be a huge step forward in my opinion. The +2 sword had to stay, and we already knew there were similar pluses for implements. To make sure that these can be exactly countered by two other slots, and no more, seems quite fair to me.But again, we need to know more about what the items in the 'optional' slots can and cannot do before we'll know how much they can affect combat. Furthermore, I'm anxious to know how WOTC intend to prevent third-party publications from breaking these new rules and redecorating the christmas tree.</blockquote>
