Hi guys, I took the time to make this original list of all the helmets and their socketed effects. Please enjoy my hard work to further improve EotA!

Cost: 5950 gold/5 crystal

Plate Helm

Drains 4 points from a random attribute for 10 seconds.
*Kingsguard Great Helm
Aura: 20% damage increase (non-hero).
*Templar’s Helm
Buffed enemy units take 15% of their health in damage.

Nice, I waited for this. :D
Would be nice if you could add the casting type of every helmet: Aura /Hero Target/Self-centered AoE/etc.
And additional mechanic information like the random stat debuff, if it refreshes the duration of old instances.

The 3 agi for nearby enemy heroes sounds extremly weak.
75% heal reduction could be imba depending on its casting type and duration.

Dekar: the ultimate ocean themed hero should buff and depend on spawn waves!
DarnYak: why is that
Dekar: WAVES
Dekar: :D
DarnYak: i was afraid that was the answer

Mistake, it's supposed to be for any nearby enemy unit.
75% heal reduction could be imba depending on its casting type and duration.
It's a Menace, meaning that it's a passive aura. The range of the aura is pretty short, so you need to be close to the enemy units.

I updated the wiki with information that's mostly copy-pasted from what DarnYak wrote in the item tooltip. [[Items]]/[[Category:Gems]]
Look at each individual gem to see how it upgrades a helmet.
Since it's on the wiki, feel free to correct any mistakes.

Good work with the wiki there.


I already wondered about this as pure magic damage increase didn't exist before:

Dragonscale Mask
*Dragontamer’s Mask
Magic damage increased to 40% (up from 15%).

Wiki now says something more reasonable:
Dragonscale Mask: Increases magic damage reduction from 15% to 40%

Probably the best item against DW-type heroes now, the magic equivalent of the Knights Armor ( if the wiki is correct ).

Having tested this in game the other day I can confirm it is a 40% magic damage reduction.
