Default Fissure Helm

I'm planning to get the Foe helm pretty soon and i am confused on which one to get. Right now i am using swords build but probably in the near future ill probably change to axe. So what do you guys think i should do. Get the +1 swords helm and when i do go axe forget about the helm or get the +1 strength helm or the +1 tactics helm. This player is for PvE only. Also what are the crafts for the helm other than 15k,15shards,15 ectos and 50 iron.

THanks

Get a +1 weapon skill helm. Just get it in the weapon you best like using.

Thats the same reason why I get my helms with tactics or strength. I use all weapons and I'm also picky on how the armor looks.
I cannot wear ascalon helm with my luxon 15k, its just too ugly. If i buy a weapon helm then that 3x15k + jade + material for each helm.

Thats a lot of money. So i just go with +1 tactics or strength and max out my weapon points.

Definitely do NOT get a strength helm. Tactics might be ok for PvE only, but generally you want your helm to match your highest attribute. If tactics is usually your highest, go with that. Otherwise, get one for your favorite weapon and then just buy 1.5k helms for the others. You can always choose to hide the ugly helms.

if you're thinking of pvp'ing anytime soon (and being taken seriously) you'll need to go for the +1 swordsmanship (Although even then swords aren't used hugely in HA).

Actually the strength helms are ok...but be sure to pick the platemail strength helm ...it is superior to the brute helm in everyway....and if your strength is high enough get a sentinals helm

As you may have discovered with this thread...

It really depends how you play your warrior, what you do in game and so on...

so ignore EVERYONE here and think for yourself about what YOU need,

i dont care what anyone else says on the matter, i would have Strength or Tactics, because they would be of the most use to me.

Strength as i use Sentinals 95% of the time would be best for me really...

Yet there is someone saying DONT GET STRENGTH! 3 or 4 posts up...

so in short... look at your builds your equipment and your attributes and decide for yourself



Have Fun.

Obviously if you know you are going to be using axes soon and are going to be using them for a while, get an axe one.

Use a cheaper sword helm in the meantime and hide the skin. Also, what's stopping you from buying a second FoW helm? If it’s the money and the materials, just farm it. If you are capable of making it there to get the first helm, you shouldn't have much problem taking a week or even two to get a bit more for another helm...

Probably the best advice you'll get.

Personly i would advice to get different helmets so you can easily change to different builds.

but when going for fow that can be a bit expensive. (or just take 1.5k and dont show it)
