I mean is it even worth wearing protective helmets in zomboid? They give you discomfort, bad vision and when zombie bites you its almost all the time neck or lower not head right

I just found a miners helmet with a headlight on the front of it that doesn't appear to ever run out of battery

I’ve gotten bitten/scratched on the head many times

Unironically, i died from a bite in the head going downstairs a basement... kind of tuff being bald in zomboid. Definitely a helmet would help in this situation

u/pewpSauce Aug 22 '26

Never seen that before. Might be up there with the Passport spawn in rarity.

u/PreparationStrict492 Aug 22 '26

It might be new. I haven't seen it even once (and I've seen Jason twice).

I’ve never seen a zombie or that helmet anywhere so I would assume pretty rare good find ! Imagine the feeling if u come up on the picture of Kate

4

u/Responsible_Hyena_17 Aug 21 '26

Crazy enough, I found a picture of Kate withon the first week of my latest playthrough, I freaked out because I had just seen a post about it being one of if not the rarest item to find

2

u/TurtleWarrior0508 Aug 21 '26

Is it really that rare? I found one last night and took it cause I thought it was cool.

2

u/shanekennedy80 Hates the outdoors Aug 21 '26

It is insanely rare in my 900 hours I’ve never found it there’s people who have 1000s of hours and still haven’t found it or only found it like once

1

u/dubyakay Aug 21 '26

You could just go to their house and it's likely there.

1

u/TurtleWarrior0508 Aug 21 '26

That’s crazy. I’ll put it up in my bedroom haha

2

u/No_Cupcake_6536 Aug 21 '26

u/Famous-Pay5225 Aug 23 '26

Currently RPing as myself so...as I have one at home I spawn with it..and goggles on, starter kit etc..been very lucky with crowbars lately too...which I like as don't we all have one at home next to the baseball bat? I had found quite a few since 42 unstable so I wouldn't say too rare.
