Best melee helm...

Recommended Posts

So I've been training slayer recently and have decided that I need a helm besides my slayer helm. Wondering what is best? I'm looking to do barrows, but would prefer something that isn't a barrows piece ie. torag's

 

Money's no matter. Have a nice big cash pile to work off of...

For melee, veracs or neitznot are usually best(haven't played in a while though honestly).

 

If you're taking a lot of damage use veracs, if not neitznot is better offensively.

 

If you're interested in killing the corp beast I believe figther hats have the highest stab, not sure on that...

 

Also, if any helms have been released in the last few months I know nothing whatsoever about them.

If training Slayer, don't use anything other than the Slayer Helm/Full Slayer Helm. If not slayering, Helm of Neitiznot is usually preferred for most things.

It's slightly situational

 

Veracs gives great defense, while also giving a prayer bonus.

Helm of Nietiznot gives a prayer bonus and strength bonus, giving the defensive stats around that of rune

Fighter Hat gives a +5 attack to all melee stats, making it the best helm for stabbing

The Warrior helm gives +5 to slash, and gives more defense then the fighter hat

the Dwarven helm, from the quest, A grim's tale, gives +6 crush bonus.

For slayer, the slayer helm is obvious, but if you don't have that, at least get a black mask, focus sight, and hexcrest to melee, range and mage in respectfully on slayer tasks

although damage soaking might change the usefullness of neitz aposed to aother helms.

unless he's bossing, the soaking has no effect

OP is asking about helmets for slayer, only DKs hit over 200s (and those aren't even the ones most people do for their task)
