Dented Helm (Combat)Source Advanced Race Guide pg. 18 Your helm protects you from hard hits.
Prerequisites: Hard-Headed, base attack bonus +6, dwarf.
Benefit: When wearing a helmet, you add +1 to your AC against critical hit confirmation rolls. When a critical hit is confirmed against you, as an immediate action, you can apply half of the damage from the attack to your helmet rather than yourself, applying hardness as normal. If the damage destroys your helmet, any leftover damage is applied to you. After using this feat, you are staggered until the end of your next turn. You may not use this feat if your helmet has the broken condition or the attack ignores armor bonuses to AC. Source Pathfinder Unchained pg. 117 After using this feat, you can spend 5 stamina points to become sickened rather than staggered until the end of your next turn. You can’t use this ability if you are immune to being sickened.
