Early game gear tends to be lacking in style. Unfortunately, the Adepts Hast is a BBI item and cannot be gifted to another player. U might consider buying one of the circlets or cowls for sale at the Black Cat in GS or from Medalin (the blond chick in the party dress).

Ah I read somewhere that it is a bitterblack armor lvl 1 drop. Need to find one of those! I'll wander BBI until I find one

The chest at Midnight Helix has good chance of BBI Armor Lv.1. It's the first chest after crossing the bridge that goes over stream of poison.
Save scum if necessary.

BTW If you are Post-Dragon right now you could simply take a quest In Aid of the Emerald King II from the BBI harbor notive board. The reward is this hat.

K. In that case you could increase the chance of getting this item as fast as possible.
1. Purify as pure blue Vocation, Arisen and Main Pawn.
2. If you badly need it you can cheat the system by creating a checkpoint before obtaining the very first BBI Armor Lv.1. If you won't get Adept's Hat on 1st purification just load a checkpoint. Rip and tear, utill it's done.

Say I have the BBI Armor lvl 1, and save in front of the lady, cant i just reload from there and get something else? Or is it predetermined as soon as I open the chest?

1. Consider Bitterblack Armor Lv.1 a token, not an item you have to unlock. It's a token you use to pay for unlocking a position on a loot list, along with Rift Crystals.

2. There is a sepearate lists for each BBI Novleties Lv 1, Lv.2 and Lv.3, Gears, Armors aso, hardcoded into a game files. And technically you may get what you want on 1st try or on 100th. What you want to do is to create a permanent save (a checkpoint save) before your position on the list gets RNG-ed. And if you don't like what you got, you load.

3. It, your position at the purification list, is RNG-ed the moment you pick up the very first token of a given type. You can discard as many tokens as you like but you will still get what the list wants in the same order. It depends on the total amount of time that has passed since either you entered the BBI or started the game - hypotheses vary- and because it depends on a timer you can manipulate the list.

BTW The gear, armor and weapon lists have branches, sublits, the three colors of three basic Vocations. The purification results depend on the color of Arisen and Pawn Vocations. Just mind that you can technically have 3 color party and get items randomly drawn from 3 sublits. So,if you want to maximize a chance of getting an item from a Blue sublist, and Adept's Hat is blue sublist exclusive, you want to be pure blue.
