Zakum Helm De-Throned?

Simple question: Do you think the Zakum Helm has been dethroned as the ultimate helm/hat? This question came to me when I was in the Mu Lung Dojo Lobby today, and I swear at least 30 people in that lobby had a Scarlion Hat. Simply put, they were freaking everywhere! Remember when that used to be the Z-Helm? I sure do; now it seems as though just as many if not more people have Scarlions compared to the Z-helm these days. Not to mention that the Z-helm will soon have another competitor in the category of uber-helm with the addition of the Wild Wolf Bandana. So what do you guys think? Is there a new uber-helm on the block; or does Z-helm retain it's title? Things to take into consideration: 1. Level limits (Z-helm is 50 while Scarlion is 80 and WWB is 70) 2. Slots (Scarlion and Z-helm have 10 while WWB has 7) 3. Appearance (I think we can all agree that the Scarlion is butt ugly) 4. Availability (Really? I really have to explain this part?)

scarlion is a turn off due to it's high level requirement and all around harder boss. (unless you have a rusher) the bandana is hard as hell to get if you are already a high level. You would have to do like nothing but leech dozens and dozens of levels to get it. zakum helmet is classic, and with a low level requirement of 50, nothing can beat it.

The superior hats are the red/blue caps that we used to be able to get on maple island Blue/Red Sporty Caps

No, the red bandana is the ultimate. It gives F*cking +1 Accuracy at level 5! Z0mG hax0rz

Scar helm is ok, just the Lv. 80 requirement and it's low magi def. The Wild Wolf thing is very nice, but seems hard to obtain, needing 100 notes... The zhelm is better for most since it's at lv 50 and has very nice stats.

It's an abused hat that all the noobs think makes you "pwn." Not dethroned but just an abused hat. Also I see way more zakum helms.

Scarlion beats zhelm because scarlion helm is easier to get, and has better than stats. They are cheaper, for the same reason. the level requirement detracts from the scarlion helm somewhat, but it isnt much harder to get to lv 80 than it is to get to 50. And I happen to like how the scarlion helm looks, thanks.

I don't get why everyone think the Scarlion helmet is ugly. I think it's kinda funny/cute looking, but I prefer the Targar even though it's not as beneficial to warriors. The only thing that bugs me about the Z-helm is you can't turn off the glowing effect behind it. Bugs me sometimes.

I think the Wild Wolf Bandana will outdo some of the competition if anyone leaches or is dedicated enough to get it. For one, its like the average level of those 2 helms (50 for zakum 80 for tar/scar) while the Wolf Bandana is 70 and looks better. Also, gives +18 all which is better between the other 2.

Scarlion is better for shadowers on average it will always have at least 2-3 or our used stats above 15->better
