Equipping

To equip your newly bought or crafted helmet, go into the "Arsenal" page, then click on 'Appearance' tab, the Helmet will be the first item in the section labeled 'Physique'.

Arcane Variant

For more detailed information visit here Arcane Helmets

Arcane is a discontinued variant that increases power efficiency at the expense of lowering her armor.

  • Power Efficiency +15%
  • Armor -5%

Notes

  • The 5% armor reduction is not a significant drawback as Nyx only has 15 base armor, so the Arcane Vespa Helmet reduces her armor by just 0.75 points.
  • With Nyx Prime's improved base armor of 50, she loses 2.5 points of armor by equipping the Arcane Vespa Helmet.

Power Efficiency

For more detailed information on Power Efficiency check the Power Efficiency (Mechanic) page.

As of Update 8.2, Power Efficiency now causes a linear change in ability cost. Therefore, a 15% increase in Power Efficiency will cause all abilities to cost 15% less energy to activate. Power Efficiency items stack additively (A 20% item with a 10% item leads to 30% increased efficiency).

Can be stacked with a Rank 3 Fleeting Expertise (+30%) and Maxed Streamline (+30%) for a total maximum of 75% Power Efficiency as 75% is the maximum for Power Efficiency.

Trivia

  • This helmet was first introduced in Update 9.
  • Vespa is the genus name of true hornets. Appropriately enough the helmet takes design cues from hornets, particularly the "mandibles" and compound eyes resembling a hornet's head.
