Pathfinder Unchained / Innate Item Bonuses

Rings

Source Pathfinder Unchained pg. 159
Rings work in much the same way as wondrous items.

Removed Items: Remove all rings of protection, and add the deflection bonus specified on Table 4–12: Rings to all other rings.

Multiple Rings: Note that deflection bonuses granted by multiple rings don’t stack. It’s up to the GM to decide how to deal with this, with two main options. The first option is to follow the rule outlined above and charge the price increase for each ring—consider the additional cost the price of essentially getting a third ring slot. The other option is to make the deflection bonus granted by rings (and the associated price increases) optional on a ring-by-ring basis, allowing characters to avoid paying twice for a non-stacking bonus. Doing so adds additional bookkeeping, however.

Table 4–12: Rings

Starting Price	Deflection Bonus to AC	Price Increase
0-1,999 gp	-	-
2,000-7,999 gp	+1	+2,000 gp
8,000-17,999 gp	+2	+8,000 gp
18,000-31,999 gp	+3	+18,000 gp
32,000-49,999 gp	+4	+32,000 gp
50,000+ gp	+5	+50,000 gp
