Ribboned Pig Headband

The pink pigtail-ribbon headband that has been a Henesys quest trophy since traditional MapleStory. Iconic first-real-cosmetic status symbol.

Liven's take

The Ribboned Pig Headband is the reward for completing Estelle's Special Sauce, the classic Henesys sauce-delivery chain. Mechanically it's a respectable mid-game hat: +26 Weapon Defense, +7 MaxMP, +2 Accuracy, and 7 upgrade slots at a level 27 requirement. As a fashion piece it's been iconic since traditional MapleStory. If you see a level 27-40 character with a pink pigtail-ribbon hat, they did the sauce quest.

The item slot for the Ribboned Pig Headband is Hat, so it competes with your normal defensive headwear. That's the tradeoff: this hat is worn for the aesthetic (and for the memory of the quest), not for its stat sheet. If you're building for pure combat efficiency, keep your Pilgrim's Hat or Bamboo Hat.
