ST Rings/Earrings

After lots of farming runs in ST with my guildies... I came to the conclusion that earrings drop so much more often than rings. I got 5 toons and if you check their magelos, all of them have ST earrings, but only one ring on the warrior (which happens to be from Sleeper himself).

Master of the Guard drops 2 earrings, 1 for caster & another for melee. The warders drop both a caster & melee earring, but only one very rare all/all illusion ring (which I've never seen from over 20 kills). Sleeper drops an Earring (which seems to have a higher droprate) & a ring (lower drop rate).

My suggestion is this:

Make the MotG earrings equippable on both ears & fingers, BUT AT THE COST of 20hp/mana. Call it "Amulet" instead of "Earring". So instead of a 490hp/mana/end earring, it'll be a 470hp/mana/end amulet (ear/finger)... reasonable suggestion, right? :idea:

-edit- the clicky effects can also be removed to further balance with the slot/equip flexibility.

Oh forgot that there's another ring that drops from the warders, but it's a war/pal/sk only ring, and that one I've never personally seen drop also.

Ok - changed the MoTG Rings to be usable as ring/earring.

While we are at it, i also changed the Warder dropped resistance Stones to be Range AND Face.

That's great! But, no penalty? I was expecting a very slight hp/mana nerf :-)

And the stones now face usable... WOW, just WOW, you guys are too kind!

If you insists i can make special ones for you with -20 hp/mana. If not, we leave them as they are ;)
