Desirability
The mask of the Dragon[1] trades the 3-4 AC from a normal +2 helmet for a bonus +3 slaying. It also gives a nice willpower bonus, and see invisible is convenient to have.
For melee and ranged fighters, it's usually worth using over a plain helmet. Even for casters, the willpower can make it worth using (in lieu of another hat of willpower). You can often find better randart hats/helmets out there, though.
The mask covers your face but not your head, so characters with horns will still be able to use their auxiliary attack, making it a great fit for Minotaurs.
