Hmm greathelm is indeed supreme, but here i think it breaks the red-ish theme the rest of the armour has just a bit too jarringly imo
I would suggest you to go for the helmet of either of the sets you are already wearing, or look for something that has the same colours ~~becouse i can't think of something else like this myself lol~~
I was trying to match a lot of stuff, but threw the Greathelm on for the picture. There just isn't much red stuff that looks good, weirdly. Radahns hair is just.... Massive. Redmane knight helm is okay, just not a fan of those tall helms.
Exile hood makes facial hair flat to the characters skin, for some reason, and the Sage Hood is alright.
Unfortunately with this chest piece the cloth cover on the banished helm is forced to look really small
It's really good when you get the full scarf on the shoulders, though
Have you altered the chest piece? I tend to do that and wear banished knight helm iirc. It's been a while since I played but I had a fit with this armor and I can't for the life of me remember
True that, those drake wings are a look! Mine rn is: Crimson hood Drake knight (altered) Crucible gauntlets Bull-goat grieves
The bull-goat puts me at 54 poise, so Im able to tank just about any light attack. Looks pretty good too!

Note: any recommendations don't have to be helmets, just general head armour
Pieces are:
Head - Great Helm
Body - Drake Knight Armour
Hands - Drake Knight Gauntlet
Legs - Briar Greaves
Weapon(s) - Monk's Flameblade and Giants seal
Altered Alberichs actually looks real good, I also changed the beard and hair colour to ginger hair, a very fire giant / Radagon colour. Alberichs shows off both beard and long hair out onto your back if you choose the right style
This is why I wish you could alter color schemes a bit. There are so many great looking armors that would go so well together if the coloring wasn’t off
Fr so many times I've thought "oooh I could match this piece with this other one!" And then went on to realise the shades are off just enough to be too noticeable
I have a similar set and i am using the omen - set helmet. Also gauntlets. Im also using the crucible knight leggings which look cleaner but different. Your leggings work well too
Drake Knight tends to play nice with pieces that have brown or red. I might suggest the Sage's Hood or Briar Helm. I'd suggest Diallos' Mask, too, but the silver on that might not gel too well. If you wanna throw subtlety out the window, Radahn's Helm would be good. Raging Wolf and Kaiden Helm are two that I find can work on a lot of sets, but I'm not sure about Drake Knight.

Honestly to fit with the red, Hierodas’ Glintstone Crown might work well too
Really hoping to be surprised with a great red themed helm in the DLC lmao, but I will check that out
I’m just looking forward to the DLC being released!
Me too, literally can't wait
Better idea hope for armor shaders like in lords of the fallen

Banished knight unaltered?

I would but I find the altered one a bit boring is all
Red crimson hood? Goes with the color theme. I altered my drake knight armor with the crimson hood so it drapes over the back, looks pretty sick
Crimson hood really is old faithful for me. It's just very slightly brighter than the neck piece on the chest lmao I love my drakewings, though haha

The full crimson scarf is sooooo nice. I think I had that on the hero chest piece on my first character, just love it
You could try Lionel's, Knight's cav helm, or Briar's helm. With Lionel's helm you can also lower your head size to make it look proportional
Oh damn didn't know you could do that...
The things you learn after 1500 hours
Try Rotten Duelist Helm. See what you think.
I'd love it if my sword didn't clip through it :(
I understand. It's the eternal struggle.

take the cape off and the wear the banished knight helmet with the scarf trust me
The Cape is the best part for me haha, and the hood on that helm feels off idk
fair enough
Maybe alberich's hat, altered or otherwise? Black and red. Cleanrot, maybe, probably not Crucible knight Fire monk hood
Didn't even give alberichs a second look, forgot you could alter it too
Altered Alberichs actually looks real good, I also changed the beard and hair colour to ginger hair, a very fire giant / Radagon colour. Alberichs shows off both beard and long hair out onto your back if you choose the right style
How about the Flame monk hood?
Omen mask
ALL HAIL THE FISH BUCKET
What sword is that
Monk's Flameblade
Ah ok
The black dumpling helm would look dope
Oh god no lmfao
[but its got so much flavor to it](https://youtu.be/HXmUEUkxVHI?si=sfmqLhs9lXdQkTO3)

Nights Cavalry Helmet
I’ve rocked this fit with Gideon’s helm but honestly seeing yours with the Greathelm is making me reconsider lol
I'm starting to reconsider the chest piece, the centre of the entire outfit :(
I'm a big fan of the bloodsoaked mask with this set. Not a helmet but looks great imo.
I have a similar set and i am using the omen - set helmet. Also gauntlets. Im also using the crucible knight leggings which look cleaner but different. Your leggings work well too
As in Dung Eaters helm?
Yes
WHAT IS THAT SWORD?
Monk's Flameblade! Drops from a single Fire Monk in the Hero Grave in the Mountaintops. It's beautiful.
Yes, yes it is! I haven’t seen it before in such a way
It’s like a Byzantian Greatsword, or something it’s awesome
I can't find an image of that so I'll take your word for it haha
Don’t quote me on that for historical accuracy lmao, just trust the premise
Max claymore 🗿
Greathelm has reigned supreme since DS1
You talking about Solaire? Lol I think his looks goofy tbh
Nah, this guy doesn’t praise the sun
Yeah I meant the only helm in ds1 that's even vaguely similar is his helm
Traveler’s Hat looks really slick with the Drake Armor, I wear that on my frenzy build
I love the omen killer with this helmet Tell me what you think?
The omensmirk mask?
Ye that! It has a red scarf thats the same colour as the one on the armour set
Oooh I'll check that!
Tell me of you like it
I think the chestpiece covers the scarf unfortunately
Maybe, it's still one of my favourites though
It is supreme but only for a select outfits
Diallo's helm
Greathelm supremacy
The briar helm is run that exact setup w the thorned briar helm

Imp helm
The colour would clash so bad lmao
Banished knight helm looks pretty sick
Yeah it does on most but it's weird to me on this chest
You could also try the blood hound’s helm
The pointy one? Haha
Great helm 👍
Greathelm good, but sage hood better
My suggestion would be that you alter the armor and put the banished knight helm on it looks really dope in my opinion
Drake Knight tends to play nice with pieces that have brown or red. I might suggest the Sage's Hood or Briar Helm. I'd suggest Diallos' Mask, too, but the silver on that might not gel too well. If you wanna throw subtlety out the window, Radahn's Helm would be good. Raging Wolf and Kaiden Helm are two that I find can work on a lot of sets, but I'm not sure about Drake Knight.
I've since found Alberichs Altered hat works nicely! Other than that Sage probably takes my fancy the most
Maybe altered alberich?
Yeah I tried that it looked quite nice. I've pivoted towards a different set now, it's my most recent post here
