TOTALLY AGREE! This whole idea with slot cost is some misundestanding! I just pay 90k for lv.41 INT rings to find out, that because of this ridiculous slot cost I am able to equip only 3 and received 1 (ONE!) INT more.

not to mention, that all my classes don't use earing slots at all. i also have to choose between necklace/ring gear if both of them having beneficial stats for my class.
