so this in your left slot would be as if the ring in your right slot was also put in the left slot

This was the hold-up with Shav's Revelation which was a new hot unique back then. It would just double the "granted" mods that the item gave you and was totally busted.

Sounds like this works pretty much exactly how I wanted, although mine was going to spawn on any ring base and only dupe if your other ring was the same base. I thought that was a cool mechanic for trading them around. They just gave this one a blank base.

It needs the blank base - part of how we were able to get this version working is it can't grant any stats of it's own, so any implicit it granted wouldn't actually work. This item is treated as the other item, instead of itself.

So I assume that annointing it just does nothing? Shame that the mirrored tag wouldn't prevent it with the new oil announced.

Really neat to hear you have the ability for an item to act completely like another one now. I wonder what possibilities this opens.

Trying to annoint this ring will fail (rather than applying an annointment that the ring can't actually give because it's busy pretending to be a different ring).

Very few. This isn't something that can be done generically, and rings were the only safe item slot to do something like this on other than main-hand/off-hand, and that would need limited to weapons.

Hm, so does this mean that if you had a Vaal gem socketed in your ring, you would get 2 instances of that Vaal skill, and it effectively has slotted the same item into both slots?

No, the socketed gem is a separate item - this only reflects the ring, not what's in it.

So if Rings are the only safe slot that works, would it be possible to make say an Amulet that either mirrors or does something like copy one Suffix/Prefix from each ring slot?

Not in any way similar to how this works, this works on the level of the item, it can't do only part of it.

An amulet that reflects one ring slot is probably possible (but obviously no stats that care about being in the right/left ring slot would work in the amulet slot, so it's mostly just a worse version of this item) This actually doesn't work without a bunch more work - rings work if you have two of them, but there are several things that wouldn't work if you had 3, and a bunch of unique ring things internally have to care about which ring slot they're in as a way to let you have two of the effect, which aren't obvious to users that's what they do.

What about a pair of 'handshoes'... gloves that mirror your boots. Works in German at least

Too many stats granted on those slots that either can't work or become broken if you can suddenly get them from two sources. Rings are safe because they're all built around having two of them.

Will a ring with “when socketed in left side” give a left side buff or right side buff if the mirror ring is in the right side slot?

The ring in the left slot is in the left slot and will gives bonuses as such. The ring in the right slot is in the right slot and will give bonuses as such. This is true regardless of which ring is really that ring.

Sorry I am daft but let's try a specific example.

If you equip Viridi's Veil and Kalandra's Touch in the left slot and a magic ring in the right slot does "take no Extra Damage from Critical Strikes if you have a Magic Ring in left slot" procc? I presume not.

No. It doesn't change it's own rarity, just what it gives to you.
