Or should all have a full list the Headband and the Cloak (+2,+4,+6)?  I was considering that the first would be the most fair in relation the power levels of other items  but I'm sure you guys have different, more informed opinions that could help me.One final question: What about the Rogue's sneak attack and the Undead?  I'm running an undead-heavy game that would practically obsolete rogues.  I'll note WotC did publish a Bardic feat (Requiem) that allows their music to perfectly affect undead in Libris Mortis.I have, so far, found no way for rogues to get the full sneak attack bonus in E6 against undead without writing in a house feat.  Have you guys found any better solution?  Perhaps rogues are simply meant to be obsolete or at least limited in this kind of world I'm envisioning (but I sure hope not).Any help would be very, very much appreciated.</blockquote>
