"Should of never gotten rid of stat helms in the first play imo. Stat armors would've been interesting. "

They removed the helm stats so as to make helmets purely cosmetic, as they're supposed to be, given that helmets are placed in the "Appearances" section. As someone who likes fiddling around with their Warframe's appearance until they look just right, having to choose between a particular helmet for its stats and not its looks irked me since I didn't want to gimp my stats in the process of looking good. It's shallow, but as much as people (including myself) like to say that gameplay is more important than graphics, it's ultimately what you SEE that attracts you to something initially, and I enjoy the game more if I enjoy what I see. Having to wear a helmet that's ugly to me just so I get a particular bonus goes counter to that enjoyment.

If I want stats, I'd do it via the actual Mod system we have in place. Cosmetics should remain purely... well, Cosmetic.
