I'm confused about why there are uncommon magic items that set Strength (Gauntlets of Ogre Power and Belts) and Intelligence (Headband of Intellect) scores to 19, but not other ability scores. Constitution has a rare item (Amulet of Health). Charisma, Dexterity, and Wisdom are completely missing. Can anyone shed any light on why there aren't items that cover all ability scores as uncommon magic items available? And, don't bother mentioning that Ioun Stones are available. They're very rare. Considering characters have ASI's to do this, why are these items so bloody rare or missing in the standard rules?

Idk. That is a question for WotC.
