1. I still don't get why people make such a big deal of the danger level. That aside, I've never noticed an increase for merely carrying items (though that might be due to me not bothering to carry much excess weaponry or armor). AFAIK, rings and amulets don't affect it at all or only by a minute amount.
see the +10 flaming valpurium sword discussion from the weekend.
