I am aware that you want all of them of course but when it comes to headgear is a +3 grizzly better or a +3 Spirit wolf - or even how?

Can be used to make Runewords:

They're all valuable and synergise with each other, you should keep all summons up including ravens. Harlequin Crest is probably the most general use.

but if you're looking for a Druid-specific Helm cause you're looking for optimal then the best skill is subjective, but here's some to consider.

Grizz is probably the all-around best pick because it'll give you an overall better meat shield for one but it's got some beefy DPS.
Wolves will likely give you more overall DPS and possibly even Ravens, I think ravens are deceptively strong though I could be wrong.
Heart is also to be considered since it buffs all your summons and merc.
Lastly is excess skills getting a Helm with +1 to carr vine saves 2 hard skill points to be allocated to much-needed summon levels before around level 80. + Lycanthropy is always welcome since it's wearbear survival.

The main benefit to pelts are the can be made into Delirium / Lore / Bulwark / Cure to name a few.

Best value I can give is if you get any +3 with additional skills you'd like to have, take it. +3 Grizz/wolf are both welcome.

They can also be found as rare pelts that can also have +tree/druid skills along with other valuable stats. Now the chances of finding most subjective perfect items is just that, they are perfect and therefore incredibly rare.

What about giving flickering to merc?

Ravens end up being a bulk of your damage against any elite or boss, so I would focus on that if I had to pick one summon. Bear is tanky enough, and wolves wont really notice the difference.

wouldn't that mean everyone should just wear Ravenlore?

Can ravens spawn on a helmet?

Yes, but only up to item ilvl 24. And for 3-socket runewords you'd need to find an ilvl 25+ base. So 3-socket Raven base is impossible to find.
A rare 2-socket would be possible but it would have crappy affixes on it, based on ilvl <24.

Ravenlore's +7 would work but you'd be shooting yourself in the foot as you can find +3 summoning +X/+X/+X magic bases for up to +6 to three skills and +3 to all others which simply is more oomph. Harlequin Crest is probably the better option between ravenlore and it.

Personal quest: At one point I was hunting for a + Werebear 3-socket base, which can only come from ilvl 25-36 (noone farms those) areas. In the end though, if at some point Metamorphosis becomes craftable in nonladder, I'm ready.
