What costs more a worm bane or fearsome knight helmet

[clickeverywhere]

Here is the way I see it. The Fearsome Knight Helm was the best head armor in the game for commandos before the introduction of the Valsgarde. Currently, it still outranks every crafted helm in terms of armor values. Secondly, the Fearsome is, in my opinion, the best looking helm (when used with transitional armor), but this is merely my opinion. In regards to the Worm Bane, considering that it is a weapon, there are many others that can take its place. The greatest benefit is that it can be used by lower class tiers as well, if I recall correctly (unless that was limited only to the Aurora Blade). In my opinion, the Worm Bane only has a role as a status symbol. Aside from that, other weapons can easily replace it. In a shield wall you could just as easily use other long reach weapons. As an archer, if you need something to block with, just about anything will do.

Of course, that is not to discount the convenience of the bastard sword. It is good in that it is capable of being used in a shield wall as well as in the capacity of a side-arm. But it isn't a necessity.

That is why, in my opinion, the worm bane is of less worth than the fearsome.
