Are rings really heavy!!! accessory slot limitations need to go. dev read me now

Accessory slots restriction is important for strategy purposes. Its much more interesting you having to pick what to wear carefully instead of just putting stuff at all slots.

The slot cost increase would also be a good idea if done correctly. It would keep balance incase a low rank player equip a high rank accessory...if the dude want to equip an extremely high accessory he will have a penalty due this.

However, the correct way of fixing it would be increasing slot cost as you rank up, in order to players to be able to equip the very same amount of accessories of his rank at any time...If you can equip 6 r10ish accessories at rank 10, you should still be able to equip 6 r50ish accessories at rank 50...and if someone wanna use all slots he just equip lower rank accessories with lower slot cost.

Least make equipping 4 slot accessories better than 3 slot. Example raise the accuracy bonus of electrum rings to 7.
3x7=21>>4x4=16 instead of 3x5=15<<<<4x4=16

i dont mind it personally saves on my inventory space which is limited enough already. But if your thinking why can't I wear these logically due to a weight standpoint, youcan actually carry loads of accessories you just cannot equip them, perhaps equiping more than the set amount would drain your magical power since they are magically imbued with power.

yea, i suggested more slots as you rank up in my initial post. No matter how many slots or anything of the sort you have you'll always have to select carefully.

Yes i know you can carry loads of accessory's as i stated in my initial post about fitting 100 items in my pockets, but thanks for the creative thought.

and for being logical, i was trying to be extra sarcastic as i know sarcasm doesn't translate well through text.

This I find a very nice way to do it. Lower level jewelry would cost less slot points since you have less available and higher ones would cost more since you gain some when leveling up. So you'd be able to choose if you prefer to equip more of lesser level or less of higher level jewelry but they would need to balance them carefully.
