I wonder about the "Black Sun Crest" Helmet since forever.

Hi, i dont know about the lore of this Item but the only "Black Sun"
in know is a symbol of "völkische"-esoterics, used in the ns/blood&soil-blackmetal szene
or in ariosoph-mystic, post-lebensborn circels.




https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Sun_(occult_symbol)

this item even looks a bit like a mirrored black sun symbol and comes up with a personal ascendancy ruleset that matches the esoterical meaning about the symbol up to some point.

what do i oversee? and if i not, how has this item found into the game?

You can read the link on the wiki page. Might tell you.

At the bottom of the page, you'll find a link to an article that was written about how they developed uniques like your Black Sun Crest. It might make a good read.

They're called "references"... and usually contain more information about the page you're reading.

hmm, thx. i have read the artikel befor my post. sadly there is nothing to find.

Have you played through the new acts? Nazi imagery is everywhere. Pretty shocking how touchy GGG is when it comes to ppl speaking out against muslims but Hitler was a huge fan of muslims so I guess it makes sense.

Ha. This guy again.

It's not Nazi imagery, it's Roman. Ever wonder what the 1st Reich was? Well now you know.

tbqh we need oriath to be reskinned as a vibrant communist transpositive non-binary collective with oppressed minorities in control of the government. All wh*te males should be sent to the feeding trough and fed to kitava's follwers.

can you show me your roman black sun? as i know you can find similiar symbols in india but they have a other name and stuff.

as i know the first use of the black sun is the ornament on the wewelsburg in germany.
the symbol is even called "wewelsburg wheel" and shows 12 "siegrunen", one for each gauleiter of the reich at the time. the use in esoteric circles started in the 50's by people telling themself fearytales about a ancient and spiritual backround of the symbol. but other than the wolfshook or svastika the black sun is a fantasy symbol inventetd in the ns.

but i would be happy to learn something new from you,

The Nazis poached mythology and symbolism all over the place. From Norse to Roman to Indian. Then they stitched the resulting gibberish together into some esoteric Frankenstein and called it original (do not steal). They really don't deserve any credit for this shit. In fact, they should be discredited and all stolen symbolism be reclaimed by the original cultures. The Nazis shouldn't keep them tainted (and tabooed) with their name.
