The Problem:
Beast protection as a stat is far too restrictive for vanity, many potential outfits, including those gained from killing the very beasts you’re protecting yourself from, cannot be worn without hindering the stat.
I believe the scope of what can be used with it should be increased.
Additions:
1: Event items in full, there is no point in vanity you are punished for wearing.
It isn’t like you can’t get the same effect out of a suit of iron armor, so it isn’t really a limited time stat buff or anything even remotely like that.
2: Beast drops, especially from the dark sea and far reaches.
There is no purpose in hunting for vanity items you are punished for wearing.
I believe this would greatly increase the scope of potential hunting outfits.
