Helm | Yes | Yes | Dogma, Mesoranger, CZak | Dogma has non-chaos-able 6MA |
Overall | Yes | Yes | Mesoranger | Helm + Overall Mesoranger = 10MA => average 5MA each, not considering scrolling (20+-INT each is easy to get tbh); |

Earrings | Yes | No | Scrolled earrings, Mystic earrings | The second-last deal breaker |

Eye | No | No | Mystic (1MA, 1 slot), Goggles, whatever you could find over the years | Not sure if Mystic is pot-able. |
Face | No | No | Mystic (1MA, 1 slot), crafted face paints, Reverse DB mask etc. | Ditto above. |
Nett | 8 items | 6 items | Empress > Tempest if you're rich. Empress // Mystic/Rising sun but Tempest not fully compatible | If we're ever getting those Rising Tempest set items... I wouldn't get them other than for looks (13 items!) |
