Since there's no ''Drops from'' tab, this very nice plate helmet drops of the Headless Horseman, a boss-mob in Scarlet Monastery (Graveyard section). The Headless Horseman can be summoned by everyone once a day (daily quest) during the Hallow's End event. (wiping still consumes the daily quest)

This seems like a very nice DPS helmet that's kinda easy to get. For a nice helm (offspec for Prot) this is a very good choice.

The Horseman's helm Courtesy of MMO-Champion. The "Daily" quest is NOT daily.
He can only be summoned ONCE per person. Meaning you can with others who have the quest to summon him.

Fabricated has been down rated ... When he is correct. On the PTR in tier 6 sets we had a couple of wipes with well rounded groups. He is harder than any of the Heroic bosses. He uses dozens of different fire attacks and none are on the same timer. If you search for Headless Horseman in the wowhead search engine ; you'll find a list of his attacks

Kommentar von Colban

For now, looks and the Horseman's Helm's unique trait can be looked at riiiight here:

Yeah...completely and totally awesome. Makes me wish I had a warrior. The helm actually will emit an evil laugh if you use it like an item. 30 second cooldown on it...

Kommentar von Hazu

As desirable as this item looks (in several respects), be prepared to have to work for it. On the Public Test Realm, the drop rate appeared to be quite low. Naturally, that's not an accurate benchmark - but knowing how these things tend to work, it would seem prudent to expect a low drop rate on the normal realms.

If you form a "static" group that can beat this boss encounter, you'd theoretically have at least 5 chances per day at getting the drop for the duration of the Hallow's End event (more, possibly, if you also help other people outside your set group). That's approximately 50-70 chances at the drop, allowing for occasional wipes.

Seriously i don't know the guys above with whom they had run SM. Prolly a bunch of premade tier6 char that they haven't never played the class before with wrong specs.

I did it with my blue druid and is easily tankable. Did it as blind (not knowing at all the event).
The group was made by me (druid), green equipped warrior as dps, hunter, mage, and tier6 (premade) druid healing.

He does not resets aggro between phases and his damage is very low (swings around 1100-1200)
I must say that an elite 60 mob is more difficult than this boss.

For the helm it is a must-have, i'll certainly run sm:gy as soon the hallow's end event is out.

Kommentar von 91971

is the hallow's end event active right now?

Kommentar von gizmokuack

So is this only avalible during the hallow's end period? Or can you still kill him afterwards? Seems a pity to not be able to test him for ppl that aint 70 yet.

Kommentar von Sengi

So I found out about this, and thought I would share it with the others:
All Credit to Girlmeetswow

First, find a group of level 70 players and take a field trip to the Scarlet Monastery. The graveyard is the first instance portal on the left, and you'll need to lazily clear through two hallways and a room to get to the horseman. On the right side of the SM GY grounds is a Pumpkin Shrine, which gives the daily quest Call the Headless Horseman. Someone in your party must accept this quest, and then click on the Loosely Turned Soil behind the shrine to place a Dreary Candle.

The Horseman will then aggro on whoever placed the candle, starting the fight. Here's how the fight works:

Phase One
Allow your tank to pick up aggro on the Horseman, and dps him down (watch out for cleaves). At 1% he will toss his head in the air and then wander around disoriented (and immune to your attacks), and the Head of the Horseman will become active. It has ~27k health, and you'll need to take a third of that off to start the next phase.

Phase Two
The Head and the Horseman will recombine at the start of Phase Two. During this phase, the Horseman can Conflagrate, so ranged and healers need to keep their distance. As before, dps him to 1%, he'll separate, and then you need take off another third of the head's health. Note that after he separates, the Horseman will also whirlwind this time, so spread out and drop the head as fast as you can.

Phase Three
Head and Horseman will recombine again, and will toss out four Pulsing Pumpkins, which grow into adds which can crit for about 1k on cloth. They have about 10k health apiece, so while you could AOE them, you might just want to have your tank pick them up and keep dpsing - they'll go away when he dies. Drop the Horseman back down to 1%, and he'll toss his head again - kill it, and you win.

Kommentar von Coopervisor

The Helm has a hidden "Use" function, it can be right clicked to make you laugh like the Horseman himself. It's on a 30 sec CD. Very funny and a nice added bonus.

Kommentar von 63403

If you fail to kill the head fast enough after the 3rd phase, it will re-attach to the horseman and phase 3 will repeat. Due to mass numbers of adds, you will probably wipe.

Thus save all cooldowns for phase 3 and the 3rd head spawn and you should be fine.

Kommentar von 64609

The horseman is 3 mannable with a protection paladin, holy priest and mage. (in blues and shadowweave)
We made sure to conserve mana while getting the horseman himself down so that we were able to dps the head when it was separated.

We ignored the pumpkin adds, just keeping them on the pally with consecration.
Fire aura helped with the conflagration from phase 2.
Making sure we had enough mana for the head was the main thing.

Kommentar von SaxxonPike

This can also be done in a raid.

Unfortunately, you can only visit the instance 5 times per hour regardless of how many people you bring, so that means less loot for everyone.

Kommentar von 93058

The Headless Horseman is a ridicolous easy fight. I tank (Feral druid) the others just nuke him down. When he disorients nuke his head, when he comes back on his mount nuke him again.

till he drops and loot some epics.

Kommentar von JSusie

Dropped on 18th kill. In that same time we had 1 pet drop, about 5 of each ring, and 2 or 3 of each different kind of broom.

Kommentar von 94489

Compared to the rings this drop is rare. I got it on my 16th run
According to wow armory the drop rate is (Very Low (3% - 14%)).

Since it is nearly a T5 equivalent, compared to Fel-Steel Warhelm, this boasts more STR(AP for warriors) when socketed.

Kommentar von Kalken

The daily part of this quest sometimes bugs, check back after a few hours if you're in there with another group, my warrior managed to summon him three times the first day.

Kommentar von Corbon

Seems to have by far the lowest drop rate of all Horseman items. Our group got the spell damage ring on first kill and the stupid melee DPS ring on 4 subsequent kills. Needless to say the plate wearers and the priest healer were extremely pissed.
At least we got some honor from ganking Horde outside.

Kommentar von 29036

Suprisingly easy that i thought it was going to be, took about 20 runs in all to get the helmet, may have been less. Indeed he does always drop a broom, which is quite funny to ride on. You also recieve halloween treet thingies which increase your running speed, but if you eat too many at once it makes you sick and you have a 15 minute debuff which can be taken off with the pala or mage un-debuff thing.

As for the Horseman, very easy to down, only had 2 wipes out of the lot, and that was because the healer got d/c. Also, dont forget its a daily quest, so it resets at 4 Gametime.

Kommentar von 30541

Worth picking up for any Warrior or Paladin without the Engineering Goggles or better.

These have high socketability, although the inclusion of the blue socket creates opportunities for some inventive sockets if you want to go for the actually useful (huh?) bonus of 4 strength.

Pure PvE, I am a Holy Paladin with a very decent Retribution set on the side and when socketed this helm gave slightly less crit than my Season 2 Arena Retribution helm but a slew more AP (~20). My recommendation for Retribution Paladins looking to preserve the socket bonus and equalize crit and strength is to socket it with a Bold Living Ruby (+8 str), Inscribed Noble Topaz (+4 Str/ +4 Crit), and Sovereign Nightseye (+4 Str/+6 Sta), although the temptation to throw crit to the wind and socket it with a trio of +8 str gems was rather overwhelming. The loss in crit is acceptable for Ret Paladin gear given that in 2.3 they will all recieve a flat 3% increase to their crit chance which allows all appropriately crit percentaged Retribution Paladins to remove crit in favor of raw AP for more PvE-friendly DPS due to the new talent Sanctified Seals.

This helm did not drop until the 10th run; I was cycling guildmates in by the end of the night. This seems to be a holiday for everyone's offspecs, given the cheap and ridiculously obtainable heroic-level rings that seem to flow like water.; both this helm and the rings are item level 110 which is the same as the epic badge turn-in rewards from G'eras.

Happy Hunting! -Elzam

Kommentar von 83719

This item DOES have a little chance to drop, my dps warrrior fellow did 27 run till it finally dropped for him. Also noteable that no loot is sellable from the Headless Horseman, however items which are not BoP can be sold at quite a good price in AH (heard rumor that they're disenchantable, dunno if that's correct).

Kommentar von 26508

I read the first few posts on this and just stopped ...

Killing the Headless Horseman is the easiest epic you will get. If you can't do it ... then I just don't know.

Kommentar von 78895

Anyone know if there's anything to prevent a low level, let's say mid 50's, character loot it? Just thought about helping a friend warrior get it.

Kommentar von suprphrk

Dropped for me first try. =D

Kommentar von brinox

yea this helm would rock my socks if it had a meta socket... thats my only gripe with it. and even then its phawkin good stats, excellent look and the use is one of a kind

EDIT:: im sure any level can loot it, but only level 70 players can summon the headless horseman, FYI. i brought my 62 paladin in, and found i was not able to take the quest. sadface

Kommentar von 20768

This is a 5% drop according to www.wowhead.com/tbc, not a 10-15% drop as i've heard speculated.

Kommentar von 88701

I got this today along with the epic ground mount on my first round. I wasn't really looking for a helm seeing as i'm prot but it's a really cool helm, for sure.

Kommentar von PhoenixUnity07

Got this sexy thing today after 2 days of runs, and from a group with 4 plate wearers and 1 feral druid.

Kommentar von Nines

Easy to tank as a warrior, blindingly easy as a Prot spec warrior, not too bad as Fury/Arms and there is a nice sweet spot of Arms/Fury and 15 points in Prot (mm defiance).

He will initially aggro to the event starter, he is easy to intercept and bring around to you (if you didnt' start the event - if you did meh it's cake), if you want to be extra cautious just stand between his path (to the right of the catacomb entrance where you activate the quest) and auto-attack or taunt or shout (or whatever melts your butter) to grab his attention. Revenge and Sunder him up and he'll stick to you like glue.

At the phases have the DPS burn his head down and once the Horseman is restored he will zip back to you (you can chase him around as he Whirlwinds though if you are of a more paranoid bent ;) :P )

The final phase is the most difficult (surprise!) he spawns pumpkins that will begin to spawn their own and so forth. If you Demo shout and then Thunderclap about you will get the pumpkins attention to you nice and quickly. Given that there is also around 10 mins between attempts - (few minute fight, reseting instance, running to spot, bio breaks etc..), don't be afraid to pop a Challenging Shout on the pumpkins. It'll give you time to just Thunderclap and get them glued to you, at this stage the Horseman will be your new best friend, albeit one who is singlemindedly trying to beat you senseless. Retaliation is fun to blow at that time as well if you are bored :P

The drop rate of the helm is low, out of 10 attempts today, I have yet to see it, the caster ring has dropped at around 75% and the other 25% is the physical DPS ring. Brooms of an Epic and not so Epic nature abound.

It's a fun and short fight for even a modestly geared group. We happily 4 manned it with a 70 Warrior, Paladin, Hunter and Rogue with no one even becoming close to dying.

Kommentar von 22103

Quite easy to farm, and any level that can enter SM gy can get the loot. After hallow's end, I suspect every plate wearer with friends will have this helm, even if only for the sake of the emote.

Kommentar von 16488

Ye it seems kinda silly to give warriors (some pallys) a unique looking helm, even with a very cool evil laughter, while everybody else just gets rings.

Btw.. Bring on the - spam ^^

Kommentar von Shada

Be aware: if a hunter is summoning the Horseman, *make sure* they don't Feign Death (the Horseman goes for whoever summoned him) or the horseman *will* depsawn, wasting your try.

Kommentar von 93321

I received this helm after about 20 attempts on the first day. So far 5 warriors and one Pally in our guild have gotten the drop.

One thing to remember is that you can take a 10-man raid into SM-Graveyard to summon/kill Headless Horseman. This greatly increases the amount of chances plate-wearers have for this drop per day. Not to mention going in with 2 even 3 raids per day, you're sure (%-wise) to get one in just a day or two.

As for the helm itself, it is truly great. The laugh feature alone is worth farming for it. The glow effect on the face also leaves a glow-trail when running/riding/flying, which is very cool.

Another fun fact for Warriors/Pally's....it's not marked "unique". I've picked up 2 so far, gem/glyphed one for tanking and one for DPS. I plan on grabbing 1 or 2 more and making a fury helm as well, since they are basically free :D

Kommentar von Mandragoran

53 kills so far, and im yet to the freaking helm drop

seems some people are just exstremly unlucky :/

well the farming continues

Kommentar von 71213

This helm is great, it has 3 slots and lots of stamina and strength. although it's more looked at as a dps helm, if your a 70 tank and dont have a decent helm with +defense, you could go along ways with this helm and three solid star of elune. should come out to 82 stamina on a helm. not bad. It took me around 30 tries to get the helm. If you have a good group you can do the HH 5 times in a row as long as nobody else in your group has used the candle that day. Once you kill him simply run out of the instance and reset.

For those of you wondering how you summon him, there is a big pumpkin in sm gy. Just accept the quest and the candle will be in your bag. Then place the candle on the clump of dirt behind the pumpkin. Take note, that you shouldn't place the candle until your group is ready. Also he ALWAYS will appear to the right of the pumpkin, so you can have your tank stand right there and taunt as soon as it's available to you.

To kill the horseman isn't as bad as what you might think. You just gotta know how to do it right. Of course you have to have a good tank, and especially a really good healer. For me, the rest of the group is better off ranged. The reason is because after you kill him, his head seperates from his body. When this happens you need to switch from his body to his head on the dps. It is much easier to do this with ranged attacks. Repeat again and dps head. On the third try, he will spawn pumpkins. DO NOT TRY TO KILL THEM! The easiest way is to have the tank use piercing howl and tank all of them including horseman. Dont even bother with them. Then head will despawn again and you win. YAY!

He seems to drop the clothie rings more than the dps ring. Also, I have seen a few of these plate helms, only one of the mail helms. They seem to be on a very low drop rate...2% of all kills maybe. It is well worth farming in my opinion though.

Kommentar von 83605

Does anyone else notice that in these screen shots the helms eyes are arched differently, are there different models?

Kommentar von 26234

This boss is actually really easy to do. Most warriors could tanking in ms with a 2h or fury gear. Not that healing intensive at all.

BTW, i have seen this helmet twice in about 20 kills along with cloth helm and the pet.

And to confirm, this can be raided with 10 people (that is if you are afraid your 5 man composition is poor, lol)

Kommentar von 26234

This helm has a hidden "chance on struck " there is about a 5 % chance on being struck to give a debuff to the one that hit you.
"Hallows end " debuff
Increase time between attacks by 25 % and decrease movement speed by 30 % last 3 seconds "

for a ss... Tada!

It's probably worth mentioning, you can use your PvP trinket to get out of the conflag in phase 2.

I'm not sure why you guys make it seem so easy to get that helm...I ran this instance 30+ times, some of them wipes...probably killed him around 20 times & NEVER had the helm drop. This really sucks, since my toon is a lvl 70 arms/fury warrior. Blizzard reallly should have had a better drop rate on this!

Kommentar von 71213

This is a great dps helm, and as far as i know, you won't find a better dps helm before raids. It had a very low drop rate from the headless horseman, a level 70 group quest in sm gy. My favorite thing about it? Clicking the helm in bg after you just cut somebody up!

Kommentar von Danno

When I first got this helm, I left a green smoke trail while wearing it. After the 2.3 patch this effect seems to be gone. :(

be able to do this instance with a couple 70s? I would like to as this helm would be badass to have once i hit 70.

The second question is, does getting this helm mean you permanently have it or does it disappear after a certain amount of time?

thanks in advance.

As for summoning it Multiple times....well i've done it twice. a friend did it back to back and 3 times today. It's really buggy. dunno what the timer it is but it's not 2 hours, dunno if it's a bug or blizzard was meaning for it to have a short CD

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I guess it was incredible luck. We ran it once and I crashed and the helm dropped, didn't get chance to roll, had 2 warriors. We reset and it dropped again, I was pretty stoked. I must say it's a pretty good helm, it will be forever in my inventory so I can have the laugh, 30 second CD is fantastic.

Hey, got it after 4 days straight of farming, and about 80-85 runs. lost roll the ONE time i was grped with another plate wearer, but he helped me farm it the second time. The evil laugh is great!

Kommentar von Thottbot

I read all the "Got it on my first attempt" posts out there, and I shed a tear.

67 kills and counting, I've yet to get it. It dropped only ONCE (at my 42nd kill or so) and I lost the roll 75-80.

Now I have sore eyes, an aching back and carpal tunnel syndrome, after 4 days of pure farming in the mornings and raiding in the evenings. Oh well, at least there's still time, but if I don't get it this year, there won't be a next year. >:(

Reset the instance after doing it once with a group and got it on 2nd attempt... just lucky i guess... plenty of stuff in wow i want but it never drops for me....

Overall the killing is doable with 4 man and in 5 min... but the low drop rates for items like this sure makes it annoying... even the small amount of time to kill a mob like him.

Got this after 20-30 runs, had one holy pala in group who passed on it giving it to me, so thanx to him. For that I promised to help him get one these days... cool looking helm and worth that effort.

It's probably more like 1-2% drop than 15%, good luck getting one guys

Kommentar von Thottbot

Got it on my 20th run or so.

This is by far my most favorite piece of gear to date. The awesome look, the sick green vapor trail and the laugh are worth every bit of time it took and subsequent numerous runs for guildies.

BTW, the vapor trail and laugh work well when you are mounted. Awesome!

I for am glad that the only good item is a plate item. And this coming from a player who's mains consist of Mage,Rogue and Warlock.

Balance can ruin this game. What makes this game so great is the pluses and minuses of every class. So what if plate wearers have an item to go for, that seperation is fine by me. All the events dont need to cater to all the classes across the board, it wouldnt be as special then.

Dropped on 40th time, full run of guildies.
Also dropped during that last 7 runs 2 of the blue pumpkin heads
And the pet.
Everyone got thier ring or rings x 3.
Pet by far the hardest to get.
Didint win roll on pet, but can't complain i got the damn helm.
Thanks girls :)

This dropped for my bro who was tanking and had a green helm still, holy paladin needed over him even tho he had full justicar set... i was furious that my bro didnt get it, he was pissed to, couldnt figure out why the pally couldnt let a Fury warr get it since he had a green still, oh well i guess there are still low life mofo's out there who take stuff just to vendor

Ok, normally I dont care about waiting for drops and farming stuff. This drop is freaking nonsense. I mean it's clear that this daily was put in by Blizz to give everyone easy easy epix. You can get all the rings in a few minutes of work.

Now what about us dps plate people? Ive been in SM for 4 days STRAIGHT farming through pug groups, guild groups, being locked out of "too many instances" and generally waiting around. The only people left in SM are plate wearers, so getting a group is nerfing your chance even more. Ive seen this helm drop twice in 4 days and I lost both times.

Im going to smile and farm until I get the helm, since Blizz finally decided to give us an item that every other class already had. Gee thanks Blizz!

Well...I've run it..countless $%^&ing times

80-100. Haven't even seen it drop once.

The really funny part is i heard the squashling has a lower drop rate, and i've seen it like 6 times.

WHAT. THE. ^&*!.

:( Have a lot of days left but it's a big hassle.

ok back for the last time 169 runs and i finally got it ^_^

Kommentar von Thottbot

had ran the horseman at least 80-90 times...
got a group together and it finally dropped... was out rolled by another warrior which is more than fine... so i ran 2 more times with the same group and it dropped again!
80-90 runs and nothing, then it drops 2 times in 3 runs!
neither of us could belive it =)
very happy!

This helm looks . . . rediculous . . . on tauren.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Got it tonight, after what seemed like forever running groups for it (SM was deserted, which wouldn't have been the case a week ago). The hunter in our group had been doing it with her guild all day, and she'd seen it drop twice that day alone. I said she'd be my good luck charm, but didn't have much hope.

It dropped the second attempt we had. Making it the third she'd seen that day.

Thank you, Arufane; not only are you a good friend, you're also good luck :)

First of all, since the drops are random, 15% chance sounds fair. In theory, it's possible for an item that's got a 99% chance drop rate to never drop (incredibly unlikely) and an item that's got a 0.001% drop rate to drop every single drop (even more unlikely ;P).

This dropped twice for me in a span of 4 kills of the horseman. First kill, where I as a prot Paladin passed for the DPS Warrior. Then, on the third kill, it dropped again and I got it ^^ Very happy.

Half way through the week i found out that you can do this as a 10 man raid group. If everyone in the group summons you should see it. Helmet seems to drop about every 8 runs when you do it 10 times in a row. We found this out and each day and was able to get it to drop regular enough that a guy in our group could predict the run it would drop on. Hope this helps.
