Sakura dana or Widows cap is usually better than Headgear for hackers, because for the most part hacker abilities have low IS costs so the reduction is very minimal.

I'd go with the %acc shades if you're dueling, the cost reduction shades if you're PVPing. SSR shades for PVP too.

Yeah, I agree with Bay on the hat. The Threadbare bandana doesn't look like a bad choice either since it's almost a better version of Sakura, minus the IS regen. I think that one would depend on whether you'd rather have resistance or IS regen, since that's the main thing your sacrificing.

For glasses, I'd wear the white ones, but that's just cause I'd rather have the accuracy.

Also... I thought Patcher's headgear had resistance for all 4 classes?

Depends on what other clothes you have, but as far as hats go I always go for a WM cap or Sakura Bandana, any others I save for pretty specialist loadouts or circumstances. For the glasses I use the White Silver shard glasses mostly.
