Best for
Hood is a basic armour choice when you need extra Toughness and have few alternatives. Its only benefit is a defensive stat increase, so it does not require a particular team or attack sequence.
Best users
Use it on a fighter who needs defence until you obtain armour better suited to their needs. There is no special interaction with a named character.
When it is useful
Choose it when you want a straightforward defensive bonus. If a fight instead calls for resistance to Stun, Poison or Bleed, Hood cannot provide that protection.
Best pairings
Keep the accessory slot available for the resistance or offensive bonus your fighter needs. Bracers offer the same type of Toughness boost; use whichever gives the better bonus at your current fusion levels.
