The patch on the 13th introduced the Anti - Magic Belt and the Anti - Magic Necklace. The Anti-Magic Necklace can be purchased for 350 PC Bang Feathers, and the Anti-Magic Belt for 320. Much like the Protection Necklace provides AC-1, the Anti-Magic Necklace offers MR+5%, while the Anti-Magic Belt provides the same +400 weight limit increase as the Protection Belt.
When the Protection Belt first appeared, player reactions were mixed. Some compared it to the Troll's Belt (which increases weight) or the Spirit's Belt (which increases MP) to adjust their gear, while others maintained their existing setups or used the Protection Belt to fill empty slots and complete the Protection Set. While the previous Protection Set focused on maximizing AC (Armor Class), this new Anti-Magic Set focuses on maximizing MR (Magic Resistance). Here is a summary of potential accessory setups to use with the new Anti-Magic gear.

1. Full Anti-Magic Setup: Pair of Anti-Magic Rings, Anti-Magic Necklace, Anti-Magic Belt
Pros: Highest Magic Resistance
The Full Anti - Magic setup involves wearing all Anti - Magic accessories. You gain a total of MR+20 (MR+10 from the ring pair, MR+5 from the necklace, and MR+5 from the set bonus) along with the belt's +400 weight capacity. You can further boost your MR by adding items like a Magic Cloak or Magic Defense Helm.
The downside is a lower overall stat ceiling compared to other gear. You lose the stats and HP typically provided by necklaces or other accessories, and if you were using a Spirit's Belt, your MP will decrease. In Lineage, where field hunting is common, replacing all Protection Rings—which provide AC—with two Anti-Magic Rings can make you feel weaker than before because your stats are concentrated entirely on Magic Resistance.

2. 1 Protection/3 Anti-Magic or 3 Protection/1 Anti-Magic Setup
Pros: Affordable
This setup uses Protection Rings for AC and the rest of the Anti-Magic set for AC-1 and MR+15, or one Anti-Magic Ring and the Protection set for MR+5 and AC-3. If you are a regular PC Bang user, you can acquire this without extra cost. Since it balances both stats, it offers a reasonable level of psychological satisfaction.
However, the overall stat ceiling remains lower than other gear. If you were previously using a full Protection setup, the shift from AC to MR might make you feel weaker in actual field combat.

3. Cost-Effective Setup: Anti-Magic Ring, Protection Ring, and a choice between Orc Fighter's Necklace and a Troll/Spirit Belt
Pros: Affordable
This setup uses the Anti-Magic and Protection rings—which have no substitutes outside of extremely expensive gear—while using budget-friendly, mass-produced items for the necklace and belt. The Orc Fighter's Necklace, dropped by common monsters, is the cheapest option and is widely used for its decent HP bonus.
For belts, the Troll's Belt and Spirit's Belt are the most popular. Thanks to being featured in various PC Bang events, they have become relatively affordable compared to their high prices in the past. If you have the budget and need them, they are worth purchasing. However, if you are lacking in other areas and need to upgrade, going to a PC Bang to earn an Anti-Magic Belt is also a solid choice.

4. High-End Setup: Anti-Magic and Protection Rings, plus Stat Necklaces and Shining Belts
Pros: High stat ceiling
This method uses an Anti-Magic Ring for MR, a Protection Ring for AC, a class-specific stat necklace, and a Shining Spirit or Soul Belt. It offers the highest potential stats but also comes with the highest price tag. Unless you are prepared to invest heavily, this setup is rarely necessary.
Opinions on Shining Belts vary. For 'Old' or 'Normal' grades, the Spirit's Belt is the most popular, while the Body and Soul belts are relatively less favored. However, many argue that if you are crafting a Shining Belt, the Soul Belt is a good choice because, unlike other belts, the Shining Soul Belt provides both HP and MP recovery ticks. That said, some argue that the +1 HP tick is harder to notice than MP recovery, making the Shining Spirit's Belt a better choice, so choose carefully.
