You could add a skill for certain guilds that allows you to wear up to x amt
of rings and gain y amt of benefits, depending on % trained. Just make it
fackin' expensive to get more than 3 or 4 rings, and put limits on stacking.
Really, would +4str/+5con/+4dex/+3avoid, solely in rings, at the cost of 5 or
6m exp, be that bad or out of tune?
In otherwords, lets say you train the skill to 30%, that would allow you a 3rd
ring slot with max +1 benefit. 40% would allow max +2 on 3rd ring. 50% would
allow max +3 on 3rd ring. 60% would allow max +3 on 3rd ring and grant 4th
ring of max +1.

Only your first two rings can stack, just like normal. No other rings are
stackable, they must benefit different stats.
I don't mind the -11 out of 11, was just a quick and spastic idea to make the
multiple rings idea work. Just curious..with all the whining for an overall
bat uptune, how is limited use on multiple rings a bad idea?

Anything that gets significantly better the more exp you spend on it,
especially if it costs a lot of exp, ends up being mostly an uptune for
highbies. Do you need to make the power gap larger?

Now, if only alchemists, with their specialized knowledge of forging rings,
got the skill... Sure, I could see that :)
