Level 5 ability:   It's a 10-minute duration, self-only run speed buff usable once every 15 minutes. It's about as fast as caster speed. Breaks in combat like a regular speed buff.   Nov 27
Level 10 ability:  All style damge damage done to you is reduced to 50 for 60 seconds, 15 min recast timer.  Dec 30

 The stats apparently vary somewhat with realm, since my warrior's Winged Helm is also level 4 and the ability gained at level 3 was 5% matter resist, no spirit.   Nov 27

Leveling the Artifact:

the best harpies I have found are the ones that spawn during the Spear of Kings encounter. After the main dude drops just sit at the door and kill reds.  Dec 11

my Winged Helm is level 7 off of the harpies above the Fool's Bow encounter.  Dec 11

I have leveled mine off the red/orange podarges near Egg building, average about 1 level every 2 hours if i keep at it  Dec 11

 Desmona harpies are *not* harpies, oddly enough.  Dec 11

 Go across the river to the Island with the Temple of Kings there is a winding trail that leads to the top of the mountain there with Yellow to Red Harpies on it. At the top is the encounter for the Egg of Youth. I recommend going up the trail, then back down, the respawn is fairly quick and you should have no trouble keeping busy there.
The only things to be careful of are the harpies can add, so you could get two in a small group (I did with my SM/Bot), and if you get too far off the trail you will be forced all the way down to the base and have to start back up.   Dec 23

Strategy:  (scroll down to see how one guy soloed it)

I camped him for 11 and a half hours.  He spawns on the side of the island with all the statues with the gold armor are.  When he spawns all the harpies around him fly away.  It was a cleric 2 pallies (myself being one) a minstrel and an arms.  Basically what you have to do is pull him to the frightened harpies as fast as you can.  ALL STATUES will agro on pull, Sorc basically mezzed as he pulled to harpies.  As soon as he got close they all attacked.  Now when they attack his health will refill about 4 times.  YOU MUST pull to harpies as they are needed to pull his armor off.  Every time his health refills a peice of armor is broken when you see him naked (lol yes naked) he then goes down in seconds.  Hes a yellow con to 50 and quite easy.  CC helps a ton, and you just gotta wait out his armor being taken off which takes about 3 minutes.   Dec 9

We did it twice now.  Get someone with speed and someone with purge in an extra group. Have them wait until Hermes reaches the statues to the SW (clostest to the harpies). This can take up to half an hour. Also it seems Mythic changed his pathing in the last patch. He wont go as far to the SW as he used to  (he used to go to the last statue to the SW, now he stops between the 2nd and 3rd).

When he is close have the one with purge pull and sprint SW (the speeder  stays a bit off to the SW). Hermes roots, Purger purges and the pull team sprints to the SW and keeps running. speed should kick in after a while).

The kill group waits until the majority of the statues are past the harpies and hermes is under attack by them. Then simply jump him. He may instea heal occassionally now even tho all harpies are on him. Dont wonder too that some statues still may attack the kill group. Just mez/kill them it will be only a few. After hermes has been killed the statues will head back. In both attempts no one in the pull group died.     Nov 16

When this was soloed:

I soloed the winged helm & here's how i did it. I waited till hermes was at the other statues that looked like him, then i snare pulled him & ran him to the harpies at the SW corner near the ruins. Afterwards he had several harpies on him & then i died do to the minions, i hit /released swam back & found him almost dead in which i finished him off & got the helm. I was on my level 48 skald Gudrek from Mid/Gawaine.   Jan 28

Bard friend and I (47Champ) tested soloing the winged helm encounter its very ez to solo just as the skald did. Did it once with just bard all you have to do is pull hermes to harpies, sit/die release run back and get in one hit before hermes dies, and u get credit and helm. Did it again today with a few people to get them credit, if you add people to the group as your run back they also get credit.  Feb 19

Tips:

Our cleric was the only one who lived out of everyone (5 of us) during the encounter. Even though I died I still got credit. I'm so relieved to have this done.   Nov 27

On and island on the notos .meso border resides a giant named hermes,if attacked over 30 mobs pop heal him and kill you. The trick to killing this guy invloves harpies,the mob named Hermes wanders the island and eventually he reachs a point headed southewest which is in running distance to harpies,harpies are called frightening harpies. the only way you can damage Hermes is if these harpies attack hermes. Ok so what me and and Hossburg did was wait for Hermes to get to the point closest to these harpies,at this point i pulled him and ran like hell to where the harpies were and so was hossburg ready to heal,the second Hermes enters harpy territory the hapies jump on Hermes and thats when i began attack him as Hossburg healed me. Hermes cones yellow to 50 and 2 people can do this in our case it was a S/S champ and a warden. The reward is the Winged Helmet useable only by classes which dont have cloth or leather in their armor,aka scale.

Me and hoss did it twice already and from looks of it respawn time is as high as 12-15 hours
