Hero Head Gear

The default hero's head gear says "+1 Items attribute (stackable)", but it doesn't show +1 on the attributes/skills screen. Anyone know whats up with this? is it a bug or do I need to do something to get them the +1 bonus?

You'll need to put a rune into it and it'll show a +1 to whichever attribute the rune belongs to.

For e.g.,

Before (on Koss)

+1 Item Attribute (stackable)

= +0 to neither attributes

After adding +1 Swordsmanship rune (on Koss)

+1 Swordsmanship (non-stackable)
+1 Swordsmanship (stackable)

= +2 to Swordsmanship

Without putting any rune into it, the headgear basically works like a non-attributed headgear. Hope this helps.

If you add a rune to it it will give you that +1 plus the bonus from the rune. For example if you give Olias a necro rune of minor death magic on his head piece you will get +2 added to your death magic.

When you salvage the headgear for the rune on a hero hench, you get the "50% failure chance" message. It's BS, right? The headgear will never be destroyed, will it? And won't the rune always be salvaged?

So far all my salvages were fine. I think they should just take out that message as to not confuse players.

Yep. Can't destroy hero armour
