    Sure. Fact is, the rings purchased with tomes should always have been done this way. You should be able to equip all gear slots with the same class of gear. Rings being exclusive means you can ever only equip a single ring from that class. I would keep dungeon (including coil) drops unique but those that you purchase with tomes there's no reason why they should be exclusive.

    Now, how about you explain your elitist views that people who don't do coil are bad players with a sense of entitlement.

    Not only did I not say that, I didn't even imply it. There are many reasons why people don't do Coil, skill is only a partial reason. There are many people who have defeated turns 1, 2, 3 and even 4, yet when you see them in DF, it's like they are new to the game. You can even see my achievements on my lodestone page, I'm not elite so I don't believe I can hold elitist views, lest I be a hypocrite.

    Somewhat to the point of your i110 crusade, one can pug all turns except turn 4 with reasonable success so, I believe those who aren't trying Coil right now are either one of two things. Lazy or liability.

    I'd also like to counter your argument. I believe the reasoning to making rings unique is to gate players from achieving the max item level easily. It's somewhat of a push to get the player to do other content in hopes of getting that item they need. Tome gear is too easy to obtain so it stands that it shouldn't be allowed to fill up all slots. Then again, one can get i110 on everything else without really trying any of the other content so I'm not sure what SE is doing.
