* Attention tanking warriors *

This piece is the best helmet you can get pre-raiding. A mass of stamina and great defense make it ideal for those around level 57-60.

The mats are getting very cheap on the AH so look to pick them up and spam your trade channel to find an armorsmith to make them for you (you may need to give them a tip for their service since the recipe for these is difficult to obtain).

I see:

Enchanted Thorium Helm
Binds when equipped
Head Plate
526 Armor
+12 Strength
+25 Stamina
+12 DODGE RATING
Durability 80 / 80
Requires Level 57
Equip: Increases defense rating by 13.

This "Dodge" is added ?

This is a great helm to be sure. For defense purposes, this helm is way ahead of GolemSkull and Helm of Awareness. The high Stamina bonus will also come in useful in the upcoming group pvp settings.

That doesn't mean the helm is good for its cost, however. The same goes for all enchanted thorium armor. Consider how difficult Arcanite bar is made, and how rare several of the elemental trade goods are found, the reward can hardly justify the effort.

Average on Kilrogg server:

6x Arcanite Bar = 180g (30g each, lowest I've seen is 25)
16x Enchanted Thorium Bar = 48g ( 3g each, lowest is 2g)
6x Essence of Earth = 48g (8g each, lowest is 4g)
2x Large Opal = 2g
1x Azerothian Diamond = 18g (lowest is 14g).

So the total cost for the average is 296G, let's make it 300G even for the highest, where you can get the mats most of the time without looking for bargain.

If you have time to check AH and get the lowest possible, the cost is: 201G, let's make it 200G for the cheapest possible.

So price 200-300 isn't so bad for the end-game helm, specially if you don't have time to run for instances, if I make it, considering the price above, I won't sell it LESS than 300g.

What you guys should take into account: This clearly is an item your guild should be helping out with gathering resources. My guild build 3 (among other stuff),and everybody spent some time farming for it.

One was made for me (protection/offtank pala) and this one is clearly better than awareness or golem.

Poeple always complain about the price of this helm... all i have to say is that this is the best non epic buyable tanking helm for a warrior.It has nice stats (same as valor helm) plus 13 defence .... it competely worth the 300g to 350g......

Best Blue helm in the game for a warrior.
And actually looks pretty damn good (atleast on undead).... Looks a helluvalot better then most helms atleast. Ill post a screenshot in the next day or so.

And anyone who thinks Golum Skull helm is a better helm, only thinks that because this one cost 300G to make.

Quit being lazy and go do some farming nubcake.

I've seen one person who has this helm (horde side), and to ive started to gather the mats for it, but im getting second thoughts cause you can just get helm of valor easier (lets be honest)

6 Arcanites, cost around 20g each, so about 120g.
6 Essences of earth, 5g each, so 30g in total
16 enchanted thorium was 15g
2 Large opals cost about 2g each and
Azerothian Diamonds cost around 6g each

So, in the end, you spend over 175g on my server for one of these, but it feels like alot more.

I think ill sell the mats and keep the arcanites for a reaper or something, but this helm isnt good enough to spend that kind of money on. Blizzard need to put in more epic recipies for the crafting professions, enough said.

for PvP the Valor is probably better then this one.
but for endgame tanking, Valor isnt in the same league as this helm.

I've read 3-4 request for where to turn in the quest to get the plans for the helm. Instead of an answer, I've read countless post about the materials needed, it's stats, whether it's better for tanking or pvp'ing, pst's on every server known to the game, but not one post about the location for turning it in. This is not to say that the above info wasn't appreciated, but it does no good if you can't even create the item because one lacks the plans.

So with all of that said (written), could someone please idnetify the location to turn in the quest?

how do u get the plans for this piece?

Becoming Main Tank for a guild is a lucrative position for a warrior, often he is first in line for epic set drops in high-end raid instances. A warrior who is commited to doing this should make no compromises with his gear. Although this is in upwards of 300g if you bought the mats completely through the AH, its almost free if you go to the trouble of farming them. If you can mine, Rich Thorium Veins will provide the Arcane Crystal, Thorium Bars and the gems. Anyone can go to Silithus or wherever and farm earth elementals for the Essences. All that is left is to enlist the help of some alchemists for the Arcanite Transmutes and an enchanter for the Enchanted Thorium (3 dream dust + 1 thorium bar = 1 Enchanted thorium bar. Get the mats and many enchanters will make them free of charge.) and you have the best non-epic tanking helm you can get. Consider the fact that someone is often going to ask you what your armor and def stats are when they are determining who is going to be Main Tank. You want every bit of defense (especially after the 1.7 defense nerfing) and armor you can get to seperate yourself from the pack.

If you've got a decent guild who help out the tanks a lot then this thing isn't too hard to get made, AND it pwns valor for tanking.

Let's see.

MT of our guild lent me 6 arc bars, I'm a miner and get free transmutes from guild so all I need to do is farm some crystals to pay this off.

if your guild runs MC you will know that the guild bank accumulates ALOT of essences. 6 essence of earth is nothing, got them for free :)

All my dream dust was donated by mates/guildies, I mine the thorium myself and having it enchanted is free.

Gems were given to me by mates/guildies.

MT has the plans and isn't charging me for making it.

Total gold spent = 0

Good guilds *FTW*

I recommend you be 59-60 to solo this.
Go to Dire Maul North side.
Walk to end of tunnel. Wait for Ogre with dog to walk away. Run down ramp and jump on ledge next to ramp "Left side". Do not run all the way down.
When you are on ramp follow around till you are near another ramp going down. Safest way is to jume between the ledges. If you fall be careful walking around as not to aggro mob in center of pit. "Have a 60 warrior and have done." Walk down ramp and open door at bottom "assuming you have key" Follow tunnel and you are in library. If you accepted quest person you need to talk to will light up on mini map.

I need some of that.
it actually looks pretty good, ( unlike most sets )

Let me start by saying this helm rocks. However...I upgraded Golem Skull that drops off Phalanx in BRD with this helm...Really the only reason I did was because my alt has an Arcanite timer, and I was able to offset some of the cost. I also had the leggings crafted as well, which I recommend over the helm if you're on a limited budget, because of the availabilty and ease of farming Phalanx. The leggings are an even bigger upgrade over any pre-MC/BWL/ZG instance drop or quest reward when it comes to tanking. The chest in this "set" (no bonus, which should be changed imo) is also nice, but Kromcrush's Chest in DM North or Ornate Adamantium quest reward from Fordring are arguably just as good or better.

Bottom line, the leggings are the best value in this "set" of armor and the helm is nice if you have the gold or means to get the mats. The chest is merely a waste of gold.

Stick wit hthe golem skull helm unless you can afford or gather the mats for this, they're almost the same item, stam increase and +2def is nice though.

Sorry for getting off topic, what glove and feet is that char in that picture wearing, the silver ones.

The plans were a pain to get, hard to get groups to do Urok so good luck. Helms is def worth it to tank with, better than Golem helm if you have the mats, kind of expensive if you have to buy it. Gives a nice boost in HP.

Got the first half from Urok yesterday... luckily i have the gems needed... but 6 arcanite bars!
Damn it... dunno if it's worth the price to make it...

It's white. I'd post a screenshot, but I don't have anything to convert tgas.

an alternative to the enchanted thorium helm:
Elmo Crânio de Golem less armor, 7 less stamina, 6 more strength, 2 less defense. but its free, and a very common drop too.

alternative to enchanted thorium chestpiece:
Peitoral Ornado de Adamântio more armor, 4 less stamina, 12 less strength, 2 more defense. its free. its a quest reward. the quest starts with three quests from tirion fordring in the EPL.

there are some common drop leggings out there that aren't bad, but enchanted thorium leggings beat most. the leggings are the first piece i'd buy. probably the only piece too. not enough armor on the chestpiece, and the helm isn't enough better that golem skull to warrant 300g. if you have the money, go for it, but i don't
