Hallowed Hood
Armor · ArmorHead3★[Tides of Terraria] A Hallowed Bar helmet wrapped in divine power, which raises the damage Terraprisma deals.
Hallowed Hood is 28th of 202 head pieces by defense, at 168 against the 650 of Ancient Helm.
Wearing it also carries the effect Hallowed Power: Summon, which matters more than the raw numbers in the biomes that punish you for the wrong outfit.
Nothing is crafted from it — it is an end product, so anything you make is meant to be used rather than banked as a component.
Details
At 13 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 43,200 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.

Where to Find Hallowed Hood
The recipe is not on the Technology tree — it is locked behind a schematic you have to find first. The best single source is treasure chests in the Yakushima at 0.057% per container, and the table below lists every tier and where each one drops.
Every Tier of Hallowed Hood
The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: defense runs 140 to 182, a 1.3x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.
| Rarity | Item | Defense | HP | Durability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0★ | Hallowed Hood | 140 | 320 | 4500 |
| 1★ | Hallowed Hood | 154 | 352 | 6000 |
| 2★ | Hallowed Hood | 161 | 368 | 7500 |
| 3★ | Hallowed Hood (this one) | 168 | 384 | 10500 |
| 4★ | Hallowed Hood | 182 | 416 | 13500 |
Schematics That Unlock Hallowed Hood
Hallowed Hood is not learned from the Technology tree — you need a schematic for it. One schematic grants the recipe, and they are world loot — chests, boss Pals and the late-game pools — rather than anything you research. Higher-rarity copies of the same schematic raise the quality of what you end up crafting.
Fastest route. The fastest route is treasure chests in the Yakushima, and the reason is the ladder rather than the top rung: that pool stocks every tier, so the common copies it hands you fuse upward into the one you want. Counting them, a top-tier Hallowed Hood schematic works out at roughly 1775 containers against the 9091 the 4★ drop rate alone suggests. Spare low tiers are progress, not clutter. Schematics fuse five-to-one, so a lower tier with better odds can beat the top tier outright. Counts are containers of that source, not time.

Alternatives and Upgrades
Hallowed Helmet matches it exactly at 168 defense — those two differ in what they resist and what they weigh, not in raw defense, so picking between them is a swap rather than an upgrade. The next real step is Hallowed Mask at 182; below it is Hallowed Mask at 168.
