Glove of Storing (L-Hand) & Locked Gauntlet (R-Hand)


Rules Questions

Shadow Lodge

Can the above be done? The Glove of Storing says "A glove of storing uses up the wearer’s entire hands slot." and the Locked Gauntlet doesn't mention a slot, I suppose because it's not magical?

I'd say you can. It's only wondrous items that take up slots, not armour.

If you can conceivably wear the "clothing" under the "armour", it can take up the same "slot". A glove underneath a gauntlet makes sense.

If it were a gauntlet on another gauntlet, I'd argue against (if it were on the same hand, at least - on two hands is still okay, obviously).

A locked gauntlet isn't a magic item, so it doesn't prevent the use of magic items that use the hands slot. If you wanted, you could wear deliquescent gloves and still use a locked gauntlet while gaining the benefits of both (bonus against disarms and weapon treated as having the corrosive property).

RAW, you can even wear a glove of storing and a magical spiked gauntlet on the same hand (say, as a combat cleric or oracle using a heavy shield), since the gauntlet is considered a weapon and not a slot item. The glove of storing is to readily switch between fighting with a weapon and casting, while the gauntlet makes a decent back-up in case you're disarmed.
