I agree completely. It's my favorite helmet so far.

The helmet really helps you keep up when running with groups equiped with faster Warframes, and it doesn't take away from your Health or Shields which are more important (IMO). At max rank Iron Skin can absorb 1200 damage, 5% of that is a decrease of only 60 damage absorbtion. Making using the Vanguard Helmet a drop from 1200 to 1140 damage absorbed by Iron Skin. Hardly a big deal for survivability especially when being able to move faster also can help you avoid damage altogether.

As a comparison, an unranked Focus (at 6 Energy) makes up for the 5% loss of power strength. Meanwhile a 25% Sprint increase from Rush takes 10 energy. (Not counting any polarities added by a Forma, of course.)
