Monster Helm Sets (commonly called "monster heads") are a subset of dungeon sets of armor. As the name suggests, the design of these sets are based on various bosses found in Group Dungeons. They all consist of one head piece and one shoulder piece, and come in every weight and trait (other than Nirnhoned). When both pieces are worn they grant a powerful and unique ability or buff that cannot be obtained elsewhere.
The head pieces are guaranteed drops from the associated last boss of a group dungeon on Veteran difficulty, while shoulder pieces can be bought from Pledge Masters for Undaunted Keys. The head pieces cannot be obtained from Normal mode dungeons. Items from these sets can also sometimes be purchased from The Golden in Cyrodiil for Gold or Alliance Points.
The style of Monster Helm Sets can also be applied to your character using the Outfit System, provided the appropriate Undaunted Style page has been learned.
