[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 3221661, member: 18182"] While a helm obviously sits in the "head" slot, other magic items aren't always so straightforward. And all you guys know it too! Yes, most of the information in the beginning of the new format could be gleaned from the existing paragraph format . . . duh . . . but the whole idea is to make it easier to glance and quickly get important info rather than re-reading an entire magic item description. Hmm, a lot like the spell format oddly enough . . . Sometimes I think people like to complain just for the sake of complaining. (not sure why that surprises me here on the intertubes) In the WotC thread some poster actually in all seriousness accuses WotC of a sinister plot to waste valuable space in an effort to destroy fun and steal our hard-earned money (I'm overstating what I read, a bit). Sigh. I don't mind of course if some folks don't care for the new format versus any of the older formats . . . it's just that the histrionics and made-up reasons to complain just get to me after a while. Anyway, I like the new format! [/QUOTE]
