I'm afraid it is likely worth very little.

The biggest drawback is the lack of mage armor, making it non-medeable. It would interfere with passive mana regeneration from meditation.

Although the resists are high, they can be achieved with runic kits to create medeable leather armors with high resists and possibly lrc as well.

The fire resist is critically low so it would need to be enhanced with horned to bring up its fire, which risks breaking the item. Even if enhanced, the fire would likely still be low.

Fire resist is the mostly highly sought after resistance next to physical resist. Necromancers depend on it, not to mention some of the hardest hitting spells happen to be fire (flamestrike and meteor swarm).

Keep in mind, this is just a general opinion on the worth of the item, highlighting some of its drawbacks and is in no way meant to deter from selling it as there may be somebody looking for that exact piece. The high resistance makes it great for training up or putting on a basic non-med magery/scribe training suit.

pretty much any artifact helm is better than it, and artifact helms, or runic helms as Death suggested, all can easily attain better mods.

The helm is worth very little, sorry.

I have to concur on the value of the helm. There are a great deal of arty hats that can drop on valor. It seriously takes away the value of any non-arty headpiece.

Try to enhance it, see what happens. It could at least be something neat to wear just to be different.

500k is worthless on this server. Just kidding. It would be a good helm if it had more lrc or a high amount of luck. Thats about the only niche a hat will fill that cannot be filled my arties.
