So, last year normal players who didn't waste hundreds of dollars down the drain could get up to two legendary masks.
I believe this year, with more masks being added, the number should double. Four available Legendary Masks and two chances to get an item that will turn your legendary mask into an exotic mask that can be infused. The exotic item changer will change the look of the mask from cardboard to the actual thing. Think the skeleton mask but for raid and strike bosses.
Think about it, you can wear an actual Atheon head or Oryx's head. You can wear the actual Traveler on your face.

Better imo is as others have suggested that masks go over whatever normal helmet you have equipped. That way you still have the light-level and perks of the helmet butvthe look of the mask.
