Frog mouth.
Mainly because.
Frog mouth.
More like pog mouth, but yeah, that's always been my fave.
SomeBODY once told me
King James was gonna roll me
kettle hat. breathable and open enough to take a nap in.
Completely agree, bascinet a close second because of that
This one, perhaps:
Flat-topped helmets are just an unforced error, people learned better pretty quick
Frog mouth looks like it is extremely susceptible to being poured hot liquids from enemy
Free soup
You'd drown in the rain!
hounskull 
same, im going into battle with an ornate helm shaped like my dog 
Bascinet, is simply the most queer looking option. 
Burgundian Kettle is a trash tier Kettle Helmet, but they're my favourite kind.
The rest are for poncy knights, Kettle Hats are the workhorse of helmet designs.
i love the swirly dirly, it's probably good in a engineering way too but idk
But you could be wearing this instead.
Hounskull looks like a muppet. Like you would slip in the mud and look up to them mocking you.
It does look ridiculous but I think that cuts both ways. I imagine looking over to see your friends getting cut down by some merciless armored fighter, and all you see when you look over is this doofy snout helmet covered in gore, dark eye slits staring back as he walk toward you like some murderous steel pigman. Nightmare.
Bascinet..
Looks the most comfortable and as it's leather, lighter
Kettle hat because it is essentially just an armoured sun hat.
frog mouth
The frogmouth looks like it's made to deflect arrows and maybe transfer energy from getting bopped on the head down into your shoulders. Can you even swivel your head around inside it or is your head basically held in place? If you could that might be a good concept for a helmet, the enemy wouldn't even know where you're looking. That would be really intimidating.
I'm pretty sure the frogmouth is specifically for jousting and nothing else
I wasn't too far off thinking it was for arrows then.
it was bolted in place. these late jousting pieces were significantly thicker and made inflexible to remove as much vulnerability as possible, because no one wants to die playing games, and you don't move much on the lists. the slit is still where you could get seriously injured, but that was as good as it could get at the time.
I have had to wear a helmet for work. The one I wear is most like a sallet. If the other ones were so good we'd still be using them.
Shout out to the kettle hat though. Being able to hear and breath properly is gonna do more to keep me from getting got in the face than any extra weight will.
Rockstopper Time!
frog mouth every day bbyyy
they call it frog mouth cos any opps that see it gonna be croakin real soon 
It’s gotta be the bascinet, specifically the pig faced bascinet. Medieval hog out or log out
Barbute looks cute
Gotta be kettle hat. It protects you from arrows and overhead blows without suffocating you.
I've always been partial to the hounskull, I think it looks sick as hell either with full plate harness or even just with lighter chain/gambeson and gauntlets. And I like the kettle hat because it's got a real good balance between protection and practicality, if you absolutely have to have your face uncovered for visibility reasons then it's about as good as it gets
Frog-mouth is also fun just cause it's silly looking, I don't like it very much for practicality though
Kettle and bascinet to show my pretty scared face
no burgonet, or çiçak? 
spose i gotta go with spangenhelm then, gotta rock chainmail face protection, breathable without compromising on coverage (though a bit weaker)
Hounskull because I want to peck at people
hounskull gang
beaky-boys unite
Armet because you can open the front when necessary
frogs are cool
I mean we are all shameless hedonists who desire pleasure before all else so the kettle helm seems obvious.
I guess to be different i'd take a spangenhelm?
I mean the sallet is just kind of the best one here along with the armet. The frog mouth is also good but I think it's specialized for jousting if I recall.
Also the hounskull there is just a bascinet with a visor and an oddly scaled aventail.
The fencer in me is leaning toward the Spangenhelm.
Kettle Hat looks comfy
Hounskull
Kind of looks like the terrapins from super mario rpg
Gothic plate with sallet damn near perfect, tho I appreciate all helmets
Bascinet just looks perfectly designed to tell enemies where to stab you, and the frog mouth just looks embarrassing. Hounskull looks funny but I'd love to have that during a fight and then headsmack someone with it.
I'd take the spangenhelm but I just know I'd get busted in the mouth for the crime of fashion, so I'll take the hounskull instead
