Hi, you might not read about this in other people's games faq or walkthroughs, it's not a real biggie, but if you care, here's what i discovered :-
Most of the Rings of Protection +1s +2s in CoK (might be those obtained from 'Random Magical Treasure' roll spots) are bugged, in that :-
1. They only provide AC Bonus, but internally their Saving Throw Bonus was left set to '0'. You can view/rectify this with GBC>Editor.
2. Some of their earlier ideas on the game value of such rings inconsistently implemented and you may get a Prot +1 (AC-Only) worth 10,000 Steel in CoK, while a Prot +1 (AC & Saves) found in DKK worth 5,000 Steel. Two similar bonus rings can have different values : A Prot +2 (AC-Only) obtained as Random Magical Treasure in CoK worth 2,000 Steel, while another similar Prot +2 (AC-Only) worth 15,000 Steel. This is very bad. Very incosistent.
What led me to discover this was the Ring dropped by Myrtani, right at the end of CoK. I checked the ring internally and it was a proper Prot +3 (AC & Saves), value set to 20,000.
If you have more information on this, please let us know.
