Pumpkin Head Helmet Elden Ring

If you've fought the Mad Pumpkin Head in Elden Ring, you're probably jealous of his awesome headgear. And yous should exist; that dude is one stylish Headless Horseman-looking beau. But what if I told yous that yous could be that stylish besides? All you lot take to exercise is find yourself the Pumpkin Helm.

Of course, that'due south no small task. This is a pretty rare piece of equipment. I should point out that some people report getting the captain from the Mad Pumpkin Head himself (who you'll fight in the Wayward Ruins), but information technology's non a 100% drop charge per unit.

Thankfully, there's a really easy spot to farm for it. Simply become to the Saintsbridge Site of Grace, which is to the due east of Stormveil Castle. The verbal location is shown on the map below.

Here yous'll observe a bridge (the titular Saintsbridge), and on that span is a non-boss version of the Mad Pumpkin Head. The run from the Site of Grace to the bridge is super short, so yous can zip in, kill the Pumpkin Head, and so aught back to the Site of Grace and reset the whole affair.

I used the Glintstone Pebble spell to whittle his wellness downwardly, and then I didn't even have to get close to him. Each run — from the time I rested at the Site of Grace to the time I rested there over again — came in at virtually 30 seconds, though I did manage to become my faster runs down to 22 seconds. The biggest factor in determining your speed is which management he'south facing — if he's facing away from you, his health simply melts away, but if he'southward facing toward you lot, his helm blocks a majority of the damage.

As I mentioned earlier, the Pumpkin Helm is a ludicrously rare drib. I forgot to keep track of the verbal number of tries this took me, but I'd estimate somewhere between xxx-45 minutes of pure Pumpkin Caput farming. Thankfully, this guy drops a Sanctuary Stone every time you kill him, and on rare occasions he'll also drop a Smithing Rock [1]. He also drops 276 runes, and then if you become your runs down to 20 seconds, you'd be earning 828 runes per minute. That's not the fastest rune grind in the game by any means, but it's a nice byproduct of having to subcontract this guy for 45 minutes (or even more than than that).

Now, I love this matter for the artful, but let's have a wait at the stats.

I've been playing the Prisoner class, and the Prisoner Iron Mask even so has slightly better stats (the Prisoner Iron Mask is no joke, folks). But the Pumpkin Helm is nevertheless the all-time helm I've found so far in the Limgrave area, so non-Prisoners will definitely want to seek it out — and fifty-fifty Prisoners should option this up for the stylishness of information technology all.

And that'south how yous get the Pumpkin Captain in Elden Band. Good luck, Sleepy Hollow residents!
