In the Scalebreaker update, the Undaunted key system is getting a rework. Keys will now be a currency, and specific shoulder pairs can be purchased for multiple keys. But should the helmets get their own purchase? There are a slew of issues you can encounter going for any one helmet. Does your group know what they're doing? What role are you queuing as? How hard is the dungeon? How long is the dungeon? Will you or one of your group members DC? Will you even get the right armor type you need? Shoulders and helmets are roughly in the same position for difficulty to obtain, but helmets have it worse simply because you have to enter specific dungeons to get them. Dungeons like City of Ash II, Scalecaller Peak, Frostvault, and Moonhunter Keep are no walk in the park, and can take countless attempts to not only get through the dungeon, but finally get the type you need. Yes, yes, you can trade helmets with your group, but thanks to the RNG, it's possible for all members to get one armor type. Perhaps they could be 10 keys, instead of 5 like the shoulders, but I would gladly spend extra keys to avoid going through certain dungeons.
