Uniques/Head/The Deferred Crown

The Deferred Crown is a Demon Unique helm with no boss attached: it drops anywhere in Hell, most often from H5 up (rarer below that home difficulty, never above it), and nowhere else. Every copy is item level 110, and there 0.2% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Sovereign Spiritcowl Helm — step 6 of the Spiritcowl Helm line, item level 80 and up.

It always rolls the same numbers: +90 Ward, +327 Maximum Health, +21% Cooldown Recovery, +14% Void Damage, +29% Cooldown Recovery, +658 Ward, +45% Void Damage and +29% Attack Speed.

One Unique drop in 40 is a Mythical copy: the same item carrying 15–25% Mythical Energy that boosts every stat on it and can never be changed; the 15% floor is 10 times as common as the perfect 25%.

On top of that it carries The Deferred Crown — +40% Cooldown Recovery. Your Ultimate charges 40% faster.

“Someone will come back for it. Until then, wear it well.”
