Well that makes sense, because that's why i try hard to, or almost as a rule, stick to circlet type headgear. So it makes sense. I never understood how people could look at that flying helmet harlequin crest look, yes the stats are good, but it looks like a bent shaped toilet seat cover on the characters heads... the game is also about aesthetics... and circlet types can get damn good stats, even at medium levels. I stick to that.
