headgear question - Guild Wars Forums

s t e e · Apr 29, 2009, 11:22 PM // 23:22

Hello everyone.
I have noticed this in hero armor and in pre from the armor from yakkington where the headgear armor says +1 items attribute. What dis this mean? Does this mean whatever weapon your wielding, that attribure gets +1? If so what about offhands, do they count. Or do you put a rune on the headpiece. Please som1 explain.

\

Thanks guys

It means if you add a +1 Strength run it would be a total of +2 to strength. If you added a +2 Strength rune to it the total would be +3 and so on. Goes with whatever attribute rune you put on the headpiece.

.

Above explanation is right on...just wanted to add that this is the first time this type of headgear ls available in pre-searing. great for folks that are leaving a toon in pree or working towards the defender title. Kudos GW!

That said, I wouldn't get the headpiece if I were planning on leaving pre. The mini EQ pack is a better choice as a better headpiece can be purchased from a Merchant once you leve pre and the mini-pack is a bit pricey (2.5k).
Well worth the 50 flowers.

No it refers to the rune you put onto it.

For example; if you have a necromancer armour and you put on a +1 curses rune then the headpiece will add another to curses so the hero will have +2.

The +1 Item's Attribute will trigger with the curses rune so will add 1, plus the 1 you get from the rune itself.
