Heavy Plate Helmet

A high-tier protective helmet which protects the entire head. It costs High Quality Metal and Sheet Metal making it fairly easy to acquire near monuments and dungeons. The Heavy Plate Helmet will cause a user's view to be diminished to a small rectangle. Due to heavy plate armour suffering from increased fire damage, it can be countered by a flamethrower or incendiary ammo.
