Diablo 4’s Season 6: Vessel of Hatred brings a wealth of new content, including the highly sought-after Mythic Uniques. Among these, the Heir of Perdition helmet has quickly emerged as a top-tier item for several builds. In this guide, we'll talk about the specifics of Heir of Perdition, its drop rates, and how you can target farm it during Season 6.
What is Heir of Perdition in Diablo 4?
The Heir of Perdition is one of the new Mythic Unique helmets introduced in Season 6. It offers a powerful 60% increase in all damage dealt from any source, making it extremely versatile and valuable for a variety of builds.
This helmet is notably best-in-slot (BiS) for many builds, surpassing even the previously dominant Mythic Unique helmets like Andariel’s Visage and Harlequin Crest. While Harlequin Crest remains valuable due to its bonuses to all skill ranks and damage reduction, Heir of Perdition shines for builds that don’t rely purely on skill-based damage, making it a key choice for specific playstyles.
Why Heir of Perdition is So Good
60% Damage Multiplier: This affects all damage sources, from skills to unique mechanics like Lucky Hit or class mechanics that aren’t tied to traditional skills.
Build Versatility: Works exceptionally well for builds like:
Victimize Rogue (Lucky Hit-based)
Splintering Energy Sorcerer (sub-skill power)
Spiritborn Evade Build (damage from class mechanics)
Affixes: In addition to its unique ability, Heir of Perdition comes with fantastic affixes:
Increased Core Skill Ranks, making it viable even for skill-based builds.
Crit Chance: A base 20% chance to critically strike, which can be increased through Greater Affixes or Masterworking.
Lucky Hit Chance: Useful for proccing Lucky Hit effects in multiple builds.
Movement Speed: Always handy, though not the most critical stat.
Niche Bonus: Damage to Demons
The helmet also provides +200% damage to Angels and Demons. While there are currently no angelic enemies in the game, the bonus damage to demons is particularly potent in areas like Infernal Hordes, where almost all enemies are demons.
