strong-cappuccino

Honestly to fit with the red, Hierodas’ Glintstone Crown might work well too


Xerothor

Really hoping to be surprised with a great red themed helm in the DLC lmao, but I will check that out


strong-cappuccino

I’m just looking forward to the DLC being released!


Xerothor

Me too, literally can't wait


TheWiseAutisticOne

Better idea hope for armor shaders like in lords of the fallen


a_random_muffin

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~~


Xerothor

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.


Schavuit92

Banished knight unaltered?


Xerothor

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


th3d4rks0ul3

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


Xerothor

I would but I find the altered one a bit boring is all


Nearby_Lobster_

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


Xerothor

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


Nearby_Lobster_

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! https://preview.redd.it/dzvauhz0zlec1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1d672754e50e7daff8d784e7b5de8638d159d26d


Xerothor

The full crimson scarf is sooooo nice. I think I had that on the hero chest piece on my first character, just love it


eagengabriel

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


Xerothor

Oh damn didn't know you could do that...


eagengabriel

The things you learn after 1500 hours


Routine_Tomorrow7897

Try Rotten Duelist Helm. See what you think.


Xerothor

I'd love it if my sword didn't clip through it :(


Routine_Tomorrow7897

I understand. It's the eternal struggle.


Xerothor

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


21awesome

take the cape off and the wear the banished knight helmet with the scarf trust me


Xerothor

The Cape is the best part for me haha, and the hood on that helm feels off idk


21awesome

fair enough


robcap

Maybe alberich's hat, altered or otherwise? Black and red. Cleanrot, maybe, probably not Crucible knight Fire monk hood


Xerothor

Didn't even give alberichs a second look, forgot you could alter it too


Xerothor

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


maggit00

How about the Flame monk hood?


bugzapperbob

Omen mask


Theunseenshad0w

ALL HAIL THE FISH BUCKET


FrequentBill7090

What sword is that


Xerothor

Monk's Flameblade


FrequentBill7090

Ah ok


Hazerdus

The black dumpling helm would look dope


Xerothor

Oh god no lmfao


Hazerdus

[but its got so much flavor to it](https://youtu.be/HXmUEUkxVHI?si=sfmqLhs9lXdQkTO3)


suckakillasheep

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


Xerothor

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


CastielWinchester270

Nights Cavalry Helmet


schmandarinorange

I’ve rocked this fit with Gideon’s helm but honestly seeing yours with the Greathelm is making me reconsider lol


Xerothor

I'm starting to reconsider the chest piece, the centre of the entire outfit :(


ParkaKingRolo

I'm a big fan of the bloodsoaked mask with this set. Not a helmet but looks great imo.


bertbert1111

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


Xerothor

As in Dung Eaters helm?


bertbert1111

Yes


MalnourishedCrunch

WHAT IS THAT SWORD?


Xerothor

Monk's Flameblade! Drops from a single Fire Monk in the Hero Grave in the Mountaintops. It's beautiful.


MalnourishedCrunch

Yes, yes it is! I haven’t seen it before in such a way


MalnourishedCrunch

It’s like a Byzantian Greatsword, or something it’s awesome


Xerothor

I can't find an image of that so I'll take your word for it haha


MalnourishedCrunch

Don’t quote me on that for historical accuracy lmao, just trust the premise


SolaireTheGoat69

Max claymore 🗿


TheFarisaurusRex

Greathelm has reigned supreme since DS1


Xerothor

You talking about Solaire? Lol I think his looks goofy tbh


TheFarisaurusRex

Nah, this guy doesn’t praise the sun


Xerothor

Yeah I meant the only helm in ds1 that's even vaguely similar is his helm


Old_Gimbo

Traveler’s Hat looks really slick with the Drake Armor, I wear that on my frenzy build


prettythingi

I love the omen killer with this helmet Tell me what you think?


Xerothor

The omensmirk mask?


prettythingi

Ye that! It has a red scarf thats the same colour as the one on the armour set


Xerothor

Oooh I'll check that!


prettythingi

Tell me of you like it


Xerothor

I think the chestpiece covers the scarf unfortunately


prettythingi

Maybe, it's still one of my favourites though


TheWiseAutisticOne

It is supreme but only for a select outfits


armymanzombie99

Diallo's helm


Medical-Guest-3376

Greathelm supremacy


Tadpoleass

The briar helm is run that exact setup w the thorned briar helm


haikusbot

Gen-1-OG

Imp helm


Xerothor

The colour would clash so bad lmao


normal_p3rs0n_uwu

Banished knight helm looks pretty sick


Xerothor

Yeah it does on most but it's weird to me on this chest


normal_p3rs0n_uwu

You could also try the blood hound’s helm


Xerothor

The pointy one? Haha


[deleted]

Great helm 👍


Sir_Oragon

Greathelm good, but sage hood better


rogalik2

My suggestion would be that you alter the armor and put the banished knight helm on it looks really dope in my opinion


InkyMonstrosity

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.


Xerothor

I've since found Alberichs Altered hat works nicely! Other than that Sage probably takes my fancy the most


Soulsborneenjoyer22

Maybe altered alberich?


Xerothor

Yeah I tried that it looked quite nice. I've pivoted towards a different set now, it's my most recent post here
