Pillars of Eternity headgear

Headgear are a number of clothing items available in Pillars of Eternity, consisting of a variety of helms, hats, and hoods. They use the Head inventory slot. There's no actual mechanical difference between the different types of headgear and they don't provide direct increases to damage reduction or deflection.

Common headgear types

 * Helmets:Helmets come in many forms, from the humble padded cap to fully-enclosed steel great helms. Different cultures tend toward different styles of helmets, but outside of regimented armies, the type of helmet an individual wears often comes down to personal preference.


 * Hats:Hats come in many different shapes, sizes, and a wide array of colors. Dyrwoodans are known for their modest, rustic hats while Vailians are associated with broad-brimmed hats featuring a variety of exotic plumes.
 * Hoods:From the hunters of the Dyrwoodan wilds to cowled wizards with a flair for the mysterious, residents of the Eastern Reach appreciate the warmth and anonymity provided by a hood.
