Items that can be worn on the head do come in handy. Some allow Alucard to absorb HP from certain attacks. Others can shoot some of his statistics up, allowing him to have greater attack or magic power. Still others can prevent certain status changes.....like "poison". And of course, there are those items I fondly call "gag items", because they really don't seem to serve any real purpose in my eyes.
