Prime Zealot Helm (Year 1)

"Forged from the cores of Hezen Vex. If you feel a sense of revelation, remove immediately and inject antientheogens."

- In-game description

Prime Zealot Helm is a legendary Raid Set Helmet. It is obtained randomly by completing a phase of the Vault of Glass on Hard Mode.

Raid set armor tends to have better overall stats than, for example, Crucible or Vanguard-obtained armor. Because of this it is in fact possible to reach Level 30 with either a full raid set or three pieces of raid armor and an exotic piece. Despite this, the materials required to upgrade this armor is increased over the crucible or vanguard armor of equivalent rarity. It should also be noted that no more than one piece of raid armor can be obtained in the same encounter(phase) of the Vault of Glass until the weekly reset.
