April 24, 201510 yr Is it just me, or does it seem like there aren't as many unique/enchanted rings and belts as other gear in the game? That might go for hats and helmets too. I'm now at party level 11, pretty close to the end of the main quest. I've done every side quest I could find. I've gone through 5 levels of the Endless Paths and finished the first set of Warden bounty missions. At this point in the game, I've either found or bought way more unique weapons and unique armor than my party can use. It's stacking up in the stash box. On the other hand, half my party is only wearing one ring because I've found very few special ones. Same thing with belts; half my party isn't wearing anything in the belt slot, for lack of anything decent to loot or buy. This feels weird for a party that's getting close to ending the game. Maybe I've just been unlucky hitting the loot tables, or the good stuff is buried down in the last few levels of the Endless Paths. But it sure hasn't been that way with weapons and armor.
April 24, 201510 yr I found few rings and belt. However, Defiance Bay is full of merchants that sell them. I've loaded up my full 6-man party quite nicely from the merchants.
April 24, 201510 yr I'm drowning in rings, but not that many belts. Belts are probably best had from vendors, I'm not sure if I've found more than 1 or 2 "in the wild".
April 24, 201510 yr There's a fair few. Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)
April 24, 201510 yr I like it that way though. Makes that +10 deflection ring *really* worth something, or that blunting belt *really* awesome. I don't want to be flooded in shiny baubles.
April 24, 201510 yr Author Hmmm.... I must just be unlucky in the loot drops then. And maybe I should revisit Defiance Bay. I think I was probably ignoring rings in merchant shops at that point in the game, because money was still tight and I was prioritizing weapons and armor. I just assumed there would be lots of desirable rings dropped as loot, and that's what I haven't been finding.
