Rare Helm Warrior Hunter
How it drops
Defeating the final monster of any wave triggers a single loot roll at that creature's level. If this produces a rare item, every slot containing a valid base has an identical chance of being selected (aside from the Back slot, which is 7% as likely), followed by a balanced roll among that slot's bases. The Blacksteel Helm is eligible from enemy level 1 onward and drops exclusively for Warriors and Hunters. Normal difficulty sets item level between 10 × (level − 1) and 10 × level + 9. For Nightmare and Inferno, all foes are level 70, setting item levels to 700 plus the map level (× 2 on Inferno).
Possible affixes
Rare gear rolls 3 primary affixes and 1 secondary affix without duplicates from the pool, excluding any stats your class cannot roll; armor pieces additionally receive a guaranteed Armor roll. The values below reflect the formula across each item level, which can be previewed in the item roll calculator.
