yeah got one of those outcomes yesterday in the region “bonus” cache.
the suffix of the ring was different which should make the ring different and each of them “unique”.

Same I have a 585 priest still rocking a 538 ring thanks to “gem studded” garbage.
Unique equipped has never made sense to me.

Yep and this kind of thing is not new. The heirloom rings from the WOD shipyard are the same (there are 3 but you can only wear one).
A Gem-Studded Ring isn’t the same thing as a Gem-Studded Ring!
The ring is the same. The secondary stats are different. But the ring is the same.

Yep, IIRC they all start from the same base ring and have a chance to roll different secondary stats (with different names) when you loot them. But they’re still all considered the same ring.
they are the same item modulo the secondary stats.
Coming from Diablo, it’s taken me years me to sort out the endless restrictions in this game.
Soulbound, Bind on equip, can’t wear gear cause it’s not your armor type. Can’t have two identical rings. Trade item with x amount of time.
Back in my day, a Barbarian could use a bow and WW at the same time all with gear another person got from a boss and gave to you.
This game is layers of complexity to a new person
There are Gem-Studded Signets that you can equip with Gem-Studded Rings.
Personally I think it’s silly that we can’t wear 8-10 rings. After all we do have 10 digits on each hand well, I guess depends on your race. Don’t trolls have four fingers?
