What helmet should I use!
Morion or Sallet with Visor (the one w/o maille under it)

Edit: Adding the open face Sallet.

More edit: Its to be used with a Thick Gothic Plate with Bevor.

Sallet with visor so you look like a proper Gothic knight!
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

Sallet with visor is your only choice. I still have this set in my inventory.
Another helmet which was actually worn with bevor is Chapel de Fer, but it only offers 47 protection and looks a bit ugly :).

PS Hmm... 47 + 6 = 53. Not that bad, actually.

PPS Another thing is that such a plate armor doesn't fit to your sword :P.

no visor = can show off a moustache. w/ visor = Look like a total boss.
Also, I have declared myself #1 NA hybrid thrower
Formerly known as Marathon.
As an NA admin, I am the most laid back and concerned with the ~fun of the game~ above all other factors. I've also been super inactive since Summer 2012. University takes most of my time, but I still find some time to play when i can.

I beg to differ.

Also it's kinda weird when I see someone in plate armour, without a helm.. it's like WTF is this guy thinking?

1hit deaths in the head are no fun.

Helmets are for the simple minions.  You are the hero and dont´t need one.

Yup, just ask BKS Rhade and his Milanese with no helmet stunt that he pulled many a time. He was a hero who died repeatedly to everyone and their mother shooting at his head. Way to go, turning yourself into a bullet magnet...
