The Orcish Helmet is a piece of heavy armor and part of the Orcish Armor set found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Locations[]
Unenchanted helmets will begin to appear throughout Skyrim at level 25 and enchanted variants can be found at level 26. These locations include:
- Blacksmiths and General Goods Merchants.
- Found as random loot in chests or as a world item.
Fixed locations[]

Smithing[]
An Orcish Helmet requires a Smithing level of 50 and the Orcish Smithing perk to create. It can be forged at a blacksmith's forge with the following components:
- 2 × Leather Strips
- 2 × Orichalcum Ingot
- 1 × Iron Ingot
It can be upgraded with an Orichalcum Ingot at a workbench and also benefits from the Orcish Smithing perk, which doubles the improvement.
Trivia[]
- This helmet is unique in the fact that on the back of the male variants there is a large ponytail attached in the back, similar to the hair of some orcs.
