Verac's helm is melee armour worn in the headwear slot that is part of Verac the Defiled's set of barrows equipment. To wear Verac's helmet, a player must have 70 Defence.

Being part of Verac's set, when Verac's helm is worn, along with all of the other pieces of equipment in the set, successful attacks have a chance of hitting through an opponent's Defence and Prayer, potentially causing heavy damage. This piece of armour cannot be made using the Smithing skill.

The price of the helmet is much more expensive than other pieces of the Verac's set because when a player dies with the set, (assuming they are not using Protect Item) they always lose the helmet, so there is a high demand for Verac's helm. For this reason, it was often used in scams - players would switch the helmet with a Verac's skirt just before the trade was completed. This scam became obsolete after the changes to trading implemented by Jagex.

Verac's helm is considered to be a full helmet, making it the strongest of all full helmets (besides the degradable Statius's full helm).

This helmet is commonly used during the Fight Caves minigame because of its good melee defence and prayer bonus.
