The '''skull helm''' is a recurring piece of headwear in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Although this monstrous skullcap imparts a deadly curse on its wearer, it can be purified with the use of [[Alchemy]].

The skull helm has a defence bonus of +49... but it is [[cursed]] and reduces attack to 0! It can only be worn by [[Yangus]], as well as [[Morrie]] in the 3DS version. It can be purified with the [[Saint's ashes]] in the [[Alchemy Pot]] to create a [[Sun crown]] or sold for 4,500 gold. However, there are only two in the entire game: one in a treasure chest on [[Isolated Plateau]] which is accessible with the [[Godbird's soulstone]] and one in the [[Heavenly Dais]].

There are only two in the entire game: one in a treasure chest on [[Isolated Plateau]] which is accessible with the [[Godbird's soulstone]] and one in the [[Heavenly Dais]]. Although it can be sold for 4,500 gold, it is not recommended due to its scarcity and the fact that it can be purified into a [[Sun crown]] using [[alchemy]].
 
Recipe: Sun crown = Skull hem + [[Saint's ashes]]
 
Although it is not ideal to equip the Skull helm doing normal gameplay, it can be useful for farming; if Yangus has the skill Steal Scythe (or Stainless Steal Scythe) and equips the Skull helm, the player can use the skill on a desired enemy repeatedly until they obtain they item they want without the risk of killing the enemy.
