Defense is not a thing that matters on this helm

Are people really that dense ?

since theres no resist on a BVC helm... what are we limited to here? Vs hamerdin and druid. and the AR is really only need for the hammerdin so there is really 1 match up this thing is worth keeping for.

Pick 3 (prefixes) of:
2 barb
Visionary
Attack rating
2 sockets
All resist
Single resist
Enhanced damage

Pick (suffixes)3 of:
Strength
Life
Dex
Frw
Life rep
FCR


So basically it’s 2 barb / 20 FCR / 30 frw / visionary / 2 socket

Which is 3 prefix and 2 suffix. Meaning you can pick 1 suffix from the list at the bottom. Genenrally 20 Dex is considered best. Then life. Life STR.

Bottom line is that this circlet has one wasted mod (i would argue two). A true trophy bvc circlet would have life and dex instead of strength and frw. While it is probably amongst the best bvc circlets in d2r, it doesn't meet the lofty standards of the trophy room.

Frw is by far one of the desired affixes.

But yes STR could have been Dex or life which would have been preferential over STR
