22 Wisdom[edit source]

I think it is worth noting that this amulet cannot help a character get to 22 Wisdom, as it ceases to function once Wisdom reaches 21. If someone were to attempt to combine this amulet with a Wisdom of 20 and the +1 Wisdom from the Hag's Hair, for example, they would not reach 22 Wisdom but stay at 21. The fact that it can technically increase Wisdom to 21 is misleading and ultimately a pointless feature since a Wisdom of 21 has no actual benefit.
