Think I'd welcome them giving the elemental gorget/obi treatment to various accessories in general to consolidate needed inventory space.
For example: Loquacious Earring + Barkaro Earring + Choleric Earring + Crematio Earring + Digni. Earring + Friomisi Earring + Etiolation Earring + Calamitous Earring
...could turn into an earring with HP/MP +50, +10% Fast Cast, +10 Magic Accuracy, +10 Magic Damage, +15 Magic Attack Bonus, Magic Crit Rate +10%, Increase Magic Crit Damage, Conserve MP +5
And in general I'd say people would look to that as the "nuker" earring while similar could be done tailored more toward curing, enhancing, pets, ranged, and melee. Such would also help to push people toward their related content, even if only temporarily. Unfortunately, I see pushback between thoughts of OPness and the already mentioned "I like old things being useful!" rhetoric, too.
