I agree with the durability thing, since a lot of items seem to have 2 total durability, but as for the ring being handed down....I think you're just thinking too much, and that's not good for anyone. Perhaps no one in their family invested in the charm skill when they were wandering around, saving the world with the ring on like we would do. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
