![A detailed Dharok's helm.](/images/thumb/1/18/Dharok%27s_helm_detail.png/80px-Dharok%27s_helm_detail.png)
Dharok's helm is melee armour worn in the headwear slot that is part of Dharok the Wretched's set of barrows equipment. To wear Dharok's helm, a player must have 70 Defence.
As this helm previously left the majority of the wearer's face unprotected, and has the same negative range and mage bonuses as med helms, it is classified as a medium helm. Therefore, it is considered to be the strongest of such armour.
The helm is more expensive than the rest of Dharok the Wretched's set of barrows equipment. The disproportionately high value of the helm can be explained with the High Alchemy value of the helm. In comparison to the other items in the set the item has the lowest value and hence when a player dies they lose this item and keep the other pieces. This creates a significantly higher demand and hence the high price. This is also even more the case than other Barrows helms often lost on death, because players who use Dharok's often die more often than players who use other Barrows sets. This is due to the fact they often try and stay at low life points to use Dharok' special effect, thus increasing the chances of death.
As it is part of Dharok's Barrows set, if Dharok's helm is worn along with all of the other pieces of equipment in Dharok's barrows set the player receives a special effect. Attacks do more damage as the player's life points decrease, up to double damage at or below 10% life points. As with all Barrows equipment, this item cannot be made using the Smithing skill.
- Dharok's helm is only tradeable when undamaged or fully broken.
- If you drop this item it will degrade to "0".

Repair
Barrows equipment degrades as it is used. Equipment received from the Barrows minigame is fully repaired and can be used for 15 hours of combat until it degrades completely and requires repair before it can be used again. Barrows armour degrades even if the player is using protection prayers or not taking damage. Unlike the crystal shield and crystal bow, Barrows equipment does not suffer in performance as it degrades from fully repaired to broken. Fully repaired Barrows items start out with no numbers in their names, e.g. Karil's crossbow. It would become Karil's crossbow 100 the first time it's used in combat. Eventually it would degrade to Karil's crossbow 75, then 50, then 25 and finally 0 at which point the weapon would break and be unusable until repaired. Additionally, Barrows equipment may only be traded if fully repaired or fully broken.
When dropped or lost on death (even when placed under a gravestone), any piece of Barrows equipment will automatically degrade to 0. Players who attempt to drop Barrows equipment will receive a warning message about this.
There are two ways to repair Barrows armour. Players can talk to any of the NPCs listed below and they will repair the items for a price. Alternatively, players can repair the pieces themselves using an armour stand in any player-owned house. The equipment can be repaired at any stage of degrade, and the cost will be adjusted according to how much it has degraded. The repair costs below are as if the equipment has fully degraded.
The following NPCs can repair the armour:
- Bob - the axe seller in Lumbridge
- Tindel Marchant - the weapon and armour repairman at Port Khazard
- Dunstan - the smith in Burthorpe
- Squire - in the workshop area of the Void Knights' Outpost
