It's a trade-off

Do you want more AC/AGI, or more invent space? It's the same idea as wearing a tsack, a b12 or a shield

Having less options available to us doesn't sound like a good thing to me.

yes because stacking 2 hussar wings effectively doubling your agi seems good.

Hussar wings are good, maybe too good, sure. But gildable capes have the potential to be even better and ant wings are pretty easy to gild as well

Idk man, like I said it's a trade-off based on what you think you'll need

Also top lol if 2 hussar wings are double your agi

Being able to wear them in two slots is a cool idea but the more I think about it the more I realize it makes the game more unbalanced.

2 hussar wings might not double everyones agi, but it is still a considerable amount of agi gain compared to having an item in that slot that provides 0 stats. It allows you to completely negate the negative effects that heavy armors bring and allows for far more powerful characters early on in the world.

It's cool to have a lot of agi from gear but it really makes no sense to have two pairs of wings

I think the more things that are required in order to pvp, that you wouldn't use otherwise, the worse off pvp is. Forcing everyone to have a backpackless inventory of water skins and food whenever you're outside in order to not get dunked by someone who does makes pvp seem more and more exclusive for tryhard sweaters, and anyone who isn't just has to roll over and die.

Regardless of everything else I think ant wings should still be able to go in the backpack slot because hussar wings and ant wings together look sikkk

-1
being able to wear ant wings instead of backpack is actually great for crafting. I can use containers to keep the reagents, and have one more gilded item on me.

I agree with jordan, it's a good trade-off.

How about instead you disable the ability to use 2x hussar wings or 2x ant wings?
Either ant wings + hussar; cape + hussar; cape + ant wings (though this is pretty much 2x capes or 2x ant wings).

Oh and N.O.M.A.D. new META.

I feel like a lot of the -1s here are coming from ppl who don't rly realize it's not a choice. I mean, unless you count "do you want to do the obviously correct thing or not" as a choice
