How many of you choose to wear a square helm? The stats are pretty good and it has ext range 3 but overall elysian and woven grass have better stats. The only problem is that elysian looks like %&^! and woven grass has no graphic. I have all 3 and I find myself wearing the square helm just bc it looks better. I wish there was a way that we could customize our woven grass helm to give us the graphic of the square helm.

I like the square helm graphic, but the stats on my woven grass are so much better that it's not even a choice for me. If I need the focus effect I have a supple scale armband (it's a #@$^ing bracer, why is it called an armband?!)

Elysian is just fugly.

I need an Extended Range III item... Either Supple Scale Armband or Square Helm. IMO, by having another Woven Grass Bracer, Bracelet of Sense, or other Bracer I can benefit more than having Supple Scale Armband and Woven Grass Headband. Square Helm looks better also. This is my reason for keeping the Square Helm.

I want to beat the wis out of bracelets of sense with a nerf stick and then beat sta into them.

Oh wait, that's a bracer of fortitude...

I have way too many bracers... Rowyl's (upgrading to woven grass as soon as my MQer gets the faction >_< ) for dot click, Coldain Military for EA3 focus, Supple scale for ER3 if I need it, Bracer of the hidden that I swap in to keep see invis up as a junk buff (never know when you'll get dispelled), and a bracer of hammerfal for summoning hammers with if I'm with a puller that ran out of range weapons and occasionally to litter around.

I don't have the bracer slots for a lame stat bracer like the bracer of sense (not like the straight wis is all that hot IMO anyways, give me hp or even mana please).

The ER3 focus is nice, but the only times that I find that it really helps is for quadding (esp. if I get out the Lumi) and a very occasional hard pull. The rowyl's is useful nearly always for the mana free dot; and the Coldain Wristguard is also useful since it increases our dot dmg/mana ratio (it works in conjunction with the rowyl's bracer).

Okay..

I see what this thing looks like on the fancypants luclin graphics (sig above, eqfashion.com) but I can't seem to find any screenshots of what this thing looks like on a wood-elf male in old-school graphics.

Could someone either post a picture or point me in the direction of one please? I'm trying to decide if I whould put the time/energy into getting one of these.

Either one of these or a Dain crown, but we've killed Dain 15 times in the last 5 days, and I don't think he's ever going to drop his crown, and I'm not 1st in line for one.

The dain crown doesn't have a graphic until customized... and the customized one looks just like the one in his sig with the old models (velious plate helm). Square helm is just a plain plate helm on old models.

Using Square Helm here, but the only other thing I have is elysian and it is so ugly. I got lucky with some of my old gear, I already had some of the stuff they gave good focus effects too. I have been wearing square helm since several months after velious came out.

Totally off-topic, but I just realized the "flight attendant gave me wings" helm looks like that Romulan insignia from Star Trek.

Silly,

WG hat is a headband, not a helm.

I would like a small little green headband graphic, but tis fine as is.

actually, i find it's more of a golden color. it does have that graphic tho.

i find it much easier to keep my verm/SS bracer combo and keep square helm for ER3 than to switch out for SS helm and have a crappy supple armband.

just imo tho. if you have a coldain wrist, it's even easier to replace verm.

"i'm 9 years old and the flight attendant gave me wings!"

Bwahahaha!

I had square helm showing as the customized helm with old graphics at one point, but I've had my graphics so messed up in so many ways... can't reproduce it right now unfortunatly.
