[QUOTE="Storm Raven, post: 2774144, member: 307"] I didn't, I was just looking at the item. It doesn't work. You don't gain a caster level with the ring. You don't actually gain the ability to cast the spell any more than using a potion gives you the ability to cast a spell. It merely stores the spell, and is command activated to boot. The stat enhancing items are use activated, making them radically different from a [i]ring of spell storing[/i]. If the item said "you gain an enhancement bonus to your casting ability that allows you to cast X extra spells" then you would have an analogy that works. But you don't. The stat enhancing items say "when in a character’s possession, it adds a +2, +4, or +6 enhancement bonus to her [specified ability] score." The only listed limitation to this increase is the [i]headband of Intelligence[/i]. There is no limitation of any kind listed for any other consequence of an increased ability score. If there was intended to be a limitation for feats, then that would be included. It is not. Therefore, your argument is merely an attempt to extrapolate an exception into being a general rule, which is an illogical method of rules analysis. [/QUOTE]
