Re: Question about path boosters.
 

The Ring of Wizardry definitely boosts all the magical paths in my games - I just checked. Except Holy/Unholy, I assume although I haven't tested it.

The Staves of elemental mastery only boost the elemental paths. There is a unique robe (wishable or kill the bearer) that only boosts 'sorcery' (Astral/Death/Nature/Blood), like the ring. I forget what the Sword of Many colours boosts.

Of course, I could be wrong if the RoW boost in sorcery isn't cumulative with RoS boost in sorcery, as I don't remember which one I put on first... Btw, having 2 of RoW only yields one boost right? I remembered being unhappy to try out that combo only to find my Vamp Queen not getting double boost.

In Dom 2, the RoW boosts all non-holy paths. And, as Zen has repeatedly stated in various threads, duplicate magical path boosters do not add together, and I think the devs consider the RoS and RoW as the same item for that purpose.

Re: Question about path boosters.
 

Hrm. The Ring of Wizardry and Ring of Sorcery stack. As do using two 'different' Staff of Elemental Mastery or a Sword of Many Colors.

Re: Question about path boosters.
 

Ring of Sorcery does improve sorcery even if a Ring of Wizardry is also worn. I just double-checked and they do stack in sorcery paths.

Cool. I'm happy to be wrong. That'll teach me to repeat what others tell me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Zen, when you tested the staves, did you try it using the Nat? Just curious, since they're 2H.

Re: Question about path boosters.
 

Yes. They do stack, but not if it's the same brand of Staff of Elemental Mastery. The Sword of Many Colors also stacks with either Staff.
