Dragon Helm

The Dragon Helm is a Helm found in Golden Sun: The Lost Age.

Basic Description
The Dragon Helm increases the wearer's defense by 42. Also, it increases the wearer's Mars and Mercury resistances by 20 (the ability to resist fire and water attacks is a trait shared by all armor made from Dragon Skin). It can be bought for 8900 coins and sold for 6675 coins.

It can be obtained by giving Dragon Skin to Sunshine, which he will forge into one of 5 items determined at random. The player must then purchase the Dragon Helm. Being a Helm, it can be equipped by Isaac, Felix, Garet, and Piers.

Analysis
The Dragon Helm is perhaps the most desirable pieces of armor that can be made from Dragon Skin because it offers the highest elemental resistance (in terms of defense, the Dragon Mail is just slightly stronger). However, in the later stages of the game, players may wish to trade Dragon Skin equipment for equipment like the Cosmos Shield, which defends against all elements rather than just two. Of course, there is also the option of equipping both the Cosmos Shield and the Dragon Helm, further increasing resistance, though this may not be likely when faced with completely different headgear such as the Gloria Helm and Crown of Glory.
