The Spiral Sallet (/'spaɪræl/ /'sælɪt/ speye-ral sal-it) is a promotional cosmetic item for all classes. It is based on the Mighty Cobalt Helm from the video game Spiral Knights; a medieval knight's sallet war helmet decorated with team-colored paint and a fluffy plume. When worn by the Demoman and Heavy, the hat's bevor is removed.

This item is awarded to players who earn the Spiral Knights achievement Mission Accomplished.

Bugs

  • Even if launched through Steam, the player only receives Steam achievements (and therefore this item) if logged in using Steam as opposed to a Spiral Knights account or Sega Pass account.

Trivia

  • The description refers to knights in chess, which move by "jumping" over other pieces in an L formation.
  • The Spiral Sallet is named after the eponymous hat from Spiral Knights, though it bears more resemblance to the Mighty Cobalt Helm.
  • Owning Team Fortress 2 and completing the tutorial grants a Spiral Knights in-game message from Saxton Hale, and upon completing the Mission Accomplished achievement, a complimentary message from Mr. Reddy.
  • The RED color scheme resembles the "Heavy" color scheme in Spiral Knights.
