-The '''macabre finger necklace'''<ref>{{source ref|0.30.1|art-data.txt|1296}}</ref> is a mediocre [[amulet]] on its own. Often, just wearing an [[amulet of reflection]] or [[amulet of regeneration]] is better than a 3rd mundane ring. However, it really shines when you already have 2 great [[artefact]] rings, and need resistances (or want to wear a 3rd great ring). Also, if you're desperate for a resistance, and are unwilling to swap one of your rings out, this amulet can be useful.
