A '''Leather Helm''' is piece of [[Armor]] for the [[Hammermage]] faction, worn in the head slot. All enemies capable of dropping combat equipment have a chance to drop Leather Helms, provided that the player has progressed through the main story to the point where they have chosen a [[Faction]], as before this point only non-faction equipment can be received.

Players who have chosen the Hammermage faction are able to receive Leather Helms in {{Common}}, {{Uncommon}}, {{Rare}}, or {{Epic}} [[Rarity]]. Players who chose the [[Guardian]] or [[Cryoknight]] factions will receive Leather Helms much less frequently, and only in {{Rare}} rarity, as these items are intended for other factions to use with the [[Infusion]] system to make {{Epic}} rarity shields for their own faction.

Leather Helms are also able to be crafted by the [[Stonemason]] profession, at an item level up to the stonemason level of the crafter. Different level ranges of Leather Helm require different variants of the materials, but they all require 4 [[Flint (Etched)]].

==Variants==

The visual appearance of a Leather Helm is dependent only on its level. Leather Helms crafted by the Stonemason profession use different variants of the materials for each different visual appearance of the Leather Helm.

==Combat Stats==

As a piece of Armor, Leather Helms have resistance stats for all 6 damage types. The total resistance of a Leather Helm obeys a rigid formula with no variation:

:<math>\text{Strength} = 6\times L + 90\times R + 10 </math>

Where

*<math>L</math> is the Item Level

*<math>R</math> is the Rarity, expressed as number of stars

This total resistance is divided up between the 6 damage tpyes with some variation for each individual value. Since the shield is for the Hammermage faction, the [[File:Arborae damage icon.png|18px]] Arborae resistance will be on average 20 points lower than that of the other damage types. see [[Armor]] for a more detailed explanation of how resistances are calculated.

From this formula it can be seen that each increase in Rarity of a Leather Helm is equivalent to 15 additional levels. Thus a Leather Helm at level 0 {{Epic}}, at level 15 {{Rare}}, at level 30 {{Uncommon}}, or at level 45 {{Common}} will all have exactly the same total resistance of '''370'''.

The Leather Helm is able to be dropped by any monster that can access the [[Equipment drop table]].
