Gameplay Tips
- Temper it at a workbench with one Steel Ingot. The Steel Smithing perk doubles the improvement.
- Forge it with the Steel Smithing perk from 2 Steel Ingots, 1 Iron Ingot and 2 Leather Strips.
- The plain Steel Helmet is the hornless version, with the same armor rating and weight.
- Any mix of the Steel variants counts as a matched set for the Matching Set perk, which adds 25% armor.
