In Destiny , the exotic helmet “Eternal Warrior” came with the “House of Wolves” expansion. What can this piece do besides looking damn good?
The Titan received three exotic items with the “House of Wolves”.
- the gloves ACD/0 Feedback Fence
- the boots Wanderer’s Strides
- and the helmet Eternal Warrior
And this time we will focus on that very helmet. It is clearly intended for the offensive variant of the Titan, the Striker.
What can the helmet “Eternal Warrior” do?
As values, the “Eternal Warrior” has Intellect and Discipline – it is a split helmet. The “perfect” helmet would have values of 79 Int and 79 Dis.
- Feedback Fence: Increases Super energy when defeating minions of the Darkness.
- Infusion: Restores health each time you pick up a Light orb.
- Resolute: Adds “Unstoppable” to the Fist of Havoc.
“Unstoppable” is a talent of the Striker that he can choose in his skill tree. If this talent already comes from the helmet, there’s still room for another one like Shoulder Charge or “Juggernaut”. “Unstoppable” makes the Titan harder to eliminate when using his Fist of Havoc, suffering barely any damage in his super.
Is the helmet Eternal Warrior worth it for Strikers in PvE and PvP?
The helmet is, as most experts agree, unfortunately a bit boring overall. While the stats are well distributed, those who absolutely want to play “unstoppable” as a Striker can simply choose the talent normally.
The only real advantage would be that in addition to the “Unstoppable” you could also use the shoulder charge. In PvE, the shoulder charge is not a tremendously strong option that one wants to use constantly. One better stays away from tougher enemies where it matters – and if one still wants to use the shoulder charge in Destiny, one might as well wear the Wanderer’s Strides.
In PvP, however, the combination of “Unstoppable” and “Shoulder Charge” can bring significantly more. Unfortunately, here “Feedback Fence” is a redundant exotic perk. Exotic items in Destiny simply cannot afford such luxuries, as there is too much strong competition – like the Ruinswing or the Healing Armor.
It remains to be said: The helmet “Eternal Warrior” in Destiny should primarily be bought for its look. It is a really good-looking helmet with only mediocre properties. And that simply isn’t good enough today, or what do you think?
