Allow wearing simple helmets with animal-themed capes.

Animal capes are, arguably, coolest looking pieces of clothing in the game but they're severely underused (except maybe bear cape for early mining) because both their stats suck and they occupy two slots. Allow attaching simple non decorated and non face-covering helmets such as bronze or steel ones to capes (like how it works with fishing rods) which will give the cape armor value of the helmet.

Bump cuz you just added a new cape which will probably be very aesthetically pleasing yet useless.

I am fairly certain I have not even seen noobs wearing them, not even temporarily - at all.

Bump cuz its as useless as I thought it would be.

EDIT: also 1/1 gilding slot in w16.1 seems like a bug.

I don't get why they don't just let you put the hood of them up or down like the druid's cloak, and the cape part houses your gilds where the hood houses the innate stats like the strength of the bear cape.

Maybe this but keep the visual of animal head being on the character head.

i actually disagree. i like the look of the cape part against my non-matching hat. omega bonus points if the head part is draped over my upper back.

They have the technology to make us both happy.
