How does game decide which ring to replace

[zad48231]

When I am using tele ring, I right click it in my bag and it always swaps itself with the ring on the right, I use it, then right click the ring I was wearing previously which is now in my bag, and it swaps back with tele ring. A simple thing that probably everyone does no problem. For this reason, since it always seems to swap with the one on the right, I wear my rev on the left, so the tele will swap with the other ring and rev stays active while I'm teleporting. This always works and is never a problem.

But, I often switch between MC ring and PDR ring, and when I right click either of them, they always seem to swap with my rev instead of each other, regardless of which side my rev is on. I can't think of any time I'd want to make that switch, so when I'm switching between PDR and MC rings I always have to left click the ring in bag then click the ring on body.

I'm just wanting to understand a bit better about the code behind the right click feature and how it decides which ring to swap with, so I can maybe do things differently to improve my efficiency in switching.

I know it's a very minor thing, but during war it can be life or death if you take an extra 1 second to do something, so any improvements are valuable

I too have been experiencing this when I swap my 'SC' rings (one exp, one crit strike, another pk), it always swaps with the PearlRev and thinks I wanna attempt to play with double Vanquish rings lol.. no ty

It’s always been this way but not sure about the coding. It works out perfect like you said to wear rev ring on left so all times your more safe.

I think that it defaults to right hand side and then avoids switching with an item of the same name - not entirely sure how useful that is..

Yeah the left ring was always the 'safe' ring when fast switching so i always equip rev ring to left as i know it wont get swapped when using tele rings etc

That's useful to know, I tried with a different MC ring and it worked the way I'd like. Shame my 2 rings that I use most are the same name, I have some others I'll need to work on now
