Platinum helm

From DoomWiki.org

(Redirected from Platinum Helm)
The helm has been discovered in the Winnowing Hall. Baratus benefits from it the most.

The platinum helm is an item in Hexen that increases the character's armor class. Its appearance is that of a horned helmet. The Fighter receives 3 points of armor, the Cleric receives 1, and the Mage receives 2. The item can already be found in the prologue map Winnowing Hall, but it has not been placed in a visible spot there.
