We dont use the rules in the MiC on pg 233 that allow you to either combine multiple items (of the same type - like feet slot or ring slot)?
If not, how about a small compromise? no adding 2 effects together like dimension stride boots and boots of springing and striding, BUT stat enhancements (only a single stat per item) can be added to an item for example, Dexterous Boots of striding and springing (6).
That way we can customize out of every melee character having only the +6 str belt, and allowing people to try out some of the other cooler items.
Suppose this should have been in the proposals section… oh well!
