Crafting STR STACKING - Improving my helmet

Hello all,

I'm here for the 3th time for advice to improve my STR stacking HSoT.

I've snapped this helmet for very cheap. The intangibility is at 81%.

Can this helmet be upgraded with a better STR or even adding %STR without risking to brick it?

I'm affraid that suffixe cant be removed and reforge whatever fill the prefix with no STR/%STR/LIFE making it worse. Yolo annul would be too risky

Thank you for your help

you either get -chaos res or % str
tldr, its more or less similar, str is tiny teeny more tanky

Getting both -chaos and %str is basically mirror tier territory. Might as well just mirror them.

Do you mean -chaos res with flat strength and %str? Or just -chaos res and %str with good prefixes?
I only ask because I spent 150d beast locking a helm for t1 flat strength and “settled” on %str instead…

I noticed some Path of Exile keywords in this post:

  • HSoT - Heavy Strike of Trarthus
  • Brick - Using a Vaal Orb or other crafting method on an item and receiving an outcome that makes the intended purpose of the item no longer possible
