[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 4010708, member: 18"] This is an absolutely horrible and cretinous idea. This isn't World of Warcraft, for god's sake, WotC. I don't want to be concerned about "filling my slots", and even bloody worse, I don't want the dreadful idea that magic items only work when you reach a certain level in my game. As for "willing suspension of disbelief", really, that's a non-point. If your suspension of disbelief is shattered by flaming idiocy, just being "willing" isn't going to make you believe again. Magic items in D&D have never had, nor should ever have, strict level limits. It's particularly stupid with rings, given the obvious LotR business, and it means that you're effectively "not allowed" to create weak rings in any official-compatible product, which is just mind-bending. One ring at level 11 and two at 21 just adds to the stupidity. I wouldn't mind if WotC suggested that rings start to be awarded at level X, but that they don't work? Screw that. Hopefully a "real magic items done right" book will be one of the things out in the first six months, instead of this junk. [/QUOTE]
