    Hey guys, we can confirm that the Giant Spider helm currently available from the Golden Vendor this weekend is an error, and not intended to be sold. We aren’t able to remove this item, but do want to encourage you not to purchase it since it doesn’t currently have a matching shoulder set. For anyone that already purchased the helm, we’ll be discussing options on Monday once everyone is back in the office. We apologize for the confusion this caused, and we’ll touch base with you in a few days.
    Well.. the problem is that if this item is on gold vendor RNG list i guess it is also possible that shoulder set piece is also on that list....

    The ridiculousness of this situations is that RNG has decided to apparently draw an item that technically does not exist and is not available in the game... how much % of RNG does it take ? 0.0000000001 % ?

    Well, it was too good to miss for my saptank. Naturally, I bought the helmet from the Golden Vendor.
    If ZoS wants to take it from my inventory or replace it with something else, I'm not OK with it.
    Once given, can not be taken away. It's one of the basics of the Law.
    Be more careful on what you do/put in the store in the future.

    They would remove the item and refund the gold. Thats about it.

    PSA: Do not buy the Giant Spider helm.

    This is a leftover item that was first datamined during the One Tamriel PTS. It's one of the iterations of Swarm Mother that was apparently discarded. But somehow it remained in the itemization table as "what Swarm Mother could've been".

    In any case, the shoulders are not obtainable in-game. And it is a separate and distinct set from Swarm Mother, so it cannot be paired with Swarm Mother shoulders.

    I'm shocked, really, that this leftover bit from OT's development somehow made it into the Golden Vendor. Somebody at ZOS messed up. LOL.

    Except you want to get just a single 4% healing taken bonus and a unique item which noone else has :) I wonder how many players will buy it, I'm planning tbh ;)

    4% healing taken is actually a unique 1 piece. Some of the other sets have 2% healing done, if you were stacking healing taken, this seems like a good option. BUY BUY BUY

    I say leave it. It’ll be a rare useless relic like that one old glyph or the armor piece that had no icon. There’ll always be a handful of them floating around, fun little trinkets of days past.
    But what about the people that barely earn gold and wasted it on something they can never use?

    Hey guys if you are planing on buying this item, instead send me the gold if you are willing to throw gold away. Thanks

    If someone doesn’t have much gold and they spend it on that helm, that’s 100% on them. And if that happens, not only did they waste money, they spent it on something they didn’t know anything about. Because if you thought this was actually in the game, you have no clue what’s going on. Absolutely a decision the player should own, not something that deserves pandering and reimbursing.

    A lot of players never check in the internet, a ton of no forum users r gonna buy the helm thinking it's a Uber rare item.

    I bought it for my tank who uses Vigor. Seems to work even for self heals.
    Why, is there some data saying it doesn't give the boost?

    I think the issue is that the shoulder is not in the game.

    It's nice to hear that it's boosting your self heals. Maybe I will also pick one up for that lovely 4%.

    oic. But I use it with a single Veli right now. I don't always match up a 2pc. But if you wanted to, I guess that would make this purchase non-optimal.

    Yes it does. I was hoping for something hilarious like a stand in model they used for testing.
