Ninja Hood

A Ninja Hood is a Hat-class piece of armor found in Golden Sun. Visually, the Ninja Hood resembles a grey piece of soft headwear surrounded in a blood-red aura.

Basic Description
A Ninja Hood increases the wearer's base Defense by 28 points, and also increases base Agility by 20 points. It is bought for 2800 coins while its resale value is 2100 coins.

In Golden Sun, the Ninja Hood is acquired randomly as a prize from Tolbi's Lucky Medal Fountain. Like all Spring Prizes, the player can potentially acquire multiple copies, though the amount is left to chance. As a hat, it can be worn by all Adepts.

Analysis
The Ninja Hood is one of many pieces of equipment that can be won at Tolbi's spring and used to upgrade the party's equipment. Its fairly significant boost to Agility is quite useful to an Adept with a naturally low Speed rating. When comparing the Ninja Hood to the other two pieces of headwear, it is in-between the Adept's Helm and Glittering Tiara as far as Defensive power is concerned. Being one of the slower party members, Garet benefits more from the Ninja Hood, while Isaac benefits from the Adept's Helm, which allows him to better make use of Ragnarok. Likewise, Mia benefits more from the Ninja Hood's Agility increase, than from the Glittering Tiara's ability to inflict Delusion.
