[edit] Festival hats
Festival hats are a type of special headgear handed out as a reward during seasonal special events.
While you are able to attach runes to them (not insignias, with the exception of the Dragon Mask and Demon Mask), these headgears are not meant to have any functional value because they have an armor level of zero. They are merely collector items, for fun and for looks. (An exception was a monk farming build based on Spirit Bond, before it was nerfed, where having the lowest armor possible was an asset.)
Most festival hats cannot be dyed. Currently, the only exceptions are the Dragon Mask, Imperial Dragon Mask, Lion Mask, Jester's Cap and Tengu Mask.
Like all armor, festival hats are always customized and cannot be equipped by anyone other than the character who originally obtained it.
Event headgear may be copied from one character to another on the same account by a festival hat maker.
