Dumb question - how do I use a ring?

Gimli · 09-22-2002, 11:28 AM

I found this ring that casts mage armor once a day. I can't figure out how to use it. It won't go into a quick slot. I can wear it but not use it. If I select that character, the manual says on P 13 I am supposed to see a "Use Item" icon (it says there are 3 item buttons, F9-F11). But I don't have a use item button for that character, and pressing F9-F11 doesn't help.

How do you use such an item?

PS - it does this whether it's being worn or not.

Right click on one of the empty options down at the bottom of the screen, it's usually a spell option for me (on the bar where you click to cast a spell, or hide for those who know can). This brings up a list of new short cuts you can place in that empty spot. Choose the one that looks like a big bag, that's the use item icon. You should do this for all your peeps.

edit.. and you have to be wearing an item to use it's spell casting abilities.

Cool, thanks - was wearing the ring and couldn't use it no matter what I tried and my Bard needs the AC badly! [img]smile.gif[/img]
