Helms of the Valorous - Available Now in Lohner's Emporium

Equip your heroes in the adornments styled only for the most brave and valiant of adventurers. The Helms of the Valorous collection contains 5 premium cosmetics - one hat each for Bardin Goreksson’s Ironbreaker career, Kerillian’s Shade career, Markus Kruber’s Huntsman career, Sienna Fuegonasus’ Battle Wizard career, and Victor Saltzpyre’s Bounty Hunter career.

• The Lost Helm of Karak-Hirn - Ironbreaker Hat: I don't know. Can't put a thing down for five minutes without someone stealing it and putting it up for sale…
• Gladiatorial Gaze - Shade Hat: There's no mistaking the gilded mask of one who pledges themselves to Eldrazor, the Lord of Blades.
• Sneaker’s Helm - Huntsman Hat: Some hunters believe that adopting a fox as their totem makes them sneakier. It certainly makes them look distinctive when seen.
• Tri-Skull Crown - Battle Wizard Hat: A Bright Wizard seldom has a shortage of skulls close to hand, although most will need wiping clean first.
• Tax Collector’s Cap - Bounty Hunter Hat: Always have a dagger close to hand. You never know when someone's going to seek a rebate.
