Helmets

All 40 Helmets in Valheim, with weight, biome tier and what each one is made from. That is 40 of the 899 items catalogued here, split by kind so a single page does not run to hundreds of rows.

Valheim has 40 Helmets. They run from Hood of Oden at biome tier 1 to Hood of the Vanguard at tier 8, which is the order the game unlocks them in: gear is gated by materials, not by a level. Every entry links to its own page with the recipe or the creature that drops it.

Helmets FAQ

How many Helmets are there in Valheim?

There are 40. Each one links through to its weight, its materials and where it comes from.

What is the earliest Helmets in Valheim?

Hood of Oden, at biome tier 1. The latest is Hood of the Vanguard at tier 8. Progression is gated by materials rather than a quest log, so the tiers follow the biomes.

What tier are Helmets in Valheim?

This category spans the progression, from Hood of Oden at tier 1 up to Hood of the Vanguard at tier 8. Tier here means the biome the item belongs to rather than a quality grade, so it is a reliable guide to when you will get something and a poor one to how good it is against a specific target.

How many Helmets are there in Valheim?

40, out of 899 items in the game. That share is worth knowing before committing to a category: a large one usually means many small variations on the same idea, while a short one means each entry is doing something the others cannot.

Can Helmets be upgraded in Valheim?

Most equipment can, and the cost is not a simple multiple. Above the first quality the base requirement is replaced rather than added to, and the multiplier changes again in the upper levels — so the per-item pages carry the worked totals instead of asking you to multiply, because multiplying gives the wrong number.
