Item stacking rant

[Loren]

Two enormous cauldrons do not work together. Yet an hour ago my guy with an enormous cauldron found a wineskin in battle--and they do work together, he's making 150 supply.

Why?!?!

[Shovah32]

Because the effects dont stack, just like putting 2 water bracelets on a mage wont confer +2water magic(unless there is an item between them)

[Nick_K]

Yup, duplicates of the same item won't work, although there's what appears to be a bug with this for commanders capable of carrying more than 2 misc items.
Otherwise you'd never need to forge a treelord staff (2 thistle maces would be just as good) for example

[Wish]

yeah, however similar effects from different items do stack. a summersword+wineskin+cauldron is worth 250 supply.

fireskull combined with that fire helmet gives you +2 fire. throw in that flaming eye artifact and its +3 fire...

but two flaming skulls - no dice.

I don't care how many cars you have you can still only drive one at a time. That's why.

[Shovah32]

but these arent cars, these are cauldrons of broth
