Just be sure to swap out for a more practical amulet should a situation that calls for one arise, and make sure to put your least critical ring in the last ring slot, as that will be the one to unequip when you remove the necklace.

*If eight rings are not enough for your [[octopode]], this amulet allows you to wear '''nine''' rings.

Desirability

The macabre finger necklace[1] is a mediocre amulet on its own. The additional ring slot could be worth it, but simply using a mundane ring is generally worse than an amulet of reflection or amulet of regeneration. It really shines when you already have 2 or more great artefact rings, and need extra resistanecs/another great ring in other fields.

The last ring slot will automatically be removed when you unequip the necklace. If your third ring is cursed by Ashenzari, you will not be able to remove the macabre finger necklace.

History

  • The warding ego was removed from amulets in 0.18, leaving the macabre finger necklace as just an extra ring slot with rN+.
  • The macabre finger necklace was added in 0.14.
