LOL yeah, winning a coin flip isn't too hard. This probably makes you a ~3% underdog against an equally geared barb with a 5bo 2soc visionary. It's not easily noticeable, but the helm is still garbage since it's worse than a common shopped helm that every BvB now has. Congrats on being unique and winning 47% of your duels instead of 50%.
lol you obviously don't no me...and everyone else posting here saying this helm is no good...does not understand bvb..
every build ive made I stayed in the top 5 on the realm with...meaning there was only 1-2 barbs JUST as good not better but right up there with me..
this helm holds up beyond fine vs 2 soc 5bo's and 650+ def 5bo visionarys..why? because I built it right..bvb is about finding the perfect ar-def balance with just enough damage-life..
the reason this hat is GFG is because on top of having a gfg ar-def balance you can have an extra 10 deadly strike that kicks in consistently threw out your battles...witch btw is HUGE
as far as understanding why 47x defense 1 soc 2 barb combat is better then 2 soc 4xx def no skill...I don't expect you to understand that u have to really understand bvb to get that type of logic. Because in bvb not everything is what it seems..for example. The damage u receive from a jewel may not be as powerfull as the damage you receive from a skill on a item..its just how the game is...its the same with base defense...like I used to use a ZERO SKILL 504 def 2 soc helm...no skills at all....zero..and I did gfg vs all visionary barbs..this was before all the overpowered insane ones were out..but it held up vs 5 bo 2 soc and 4xx+ def 5bo's because BASE DEFENSE works better then defense received from a skill...just like damage from a skill works better then damage from a jewel. Get what im saying? so an extra 30ed jewel in a 2 soc ds helm..would not be better...the damage/ar I recive from the 2 barb combat makes the barb solid when u build it a certain way with the right amount of masteries...etc...its melee math. Doesn't always make sence..but I tested it out with a 422 def 2 soc 10 ds helm..it has 25 base life as well...this did ALOT better...
and base defense is huge.....like I just mentioned...getting defense from the actutal helm..is way better then reciving it from a helm with 2xx def and 3 shout or iron skin...its strange and doesn't make sense but that's bvb..just another reason I love bvb hahah
