Pathfinder Unchained / Innate Item Bonuses

Wondrous Items

Source Pathfinder Unchained pg. 158
Most items that grant bonuses to statistics fall into the wondrous items category.

Removed Items: Remove all amulets of natural armor, cloaks of resistance, and items that grant enhancement bonuses to ability scores.

Altered Item Slots: Remove the belt and headband slots. For the remaining items in those slots (those that do not grant enhancement bonuses), move all belt slot items to the body slot and all headband slot items to the head slot. This alteration reduces the total number of magic item slots, and does mean that some items that could normally be worn in tandem can’t in this system.

Ability Changes: If the table specifies that an item grants enhancement bonuses to ability scores, the wearer can change the associated ability scores by removing an item and then putting it back on. This causes the new bonus to become temporary for 24 hours. All items capable of granting an Intelligence bonus increase the bonus of a preset skill, just like a headband of vast intelligence. Amulets of mighty fists and bracers of armor follow the rules for weapons and armor; this means it is possible to make more powerful (+10 equivalent) amulets of mighty fists and bracers of armor than before.
