Quick Links
Armor is one of the most critical things you’ll need in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, as it offers everything from basic defense to bonus abilities. There are dozensꦬ of armor sets and individual armor pieces available all around Hyrule – above, within, and below – that allow Link to fare better in combat, withstand the elements, and more.
And with so many armor sets in TOTK, many of themဣ well-hidden, we’ve assembled a guide of all armor locationsꦫ in Tears of the Kingdom, locating every armor set around Hyrule and testing out their full set boost perks, too.
This guid🥂e contains major spoilers 💧for Tears of the Kingdom.
All Armor Sets And Where To Find Them
This section of our Tears of the Kingdom armor location guide contains all armor pieces that are part of complete sets.
Whether two or three pieces total, these pieces of armor provide additional bonuses when you wear all three pieces at once, on top of what the individual pieces give. These benefits can ⭕do anything from negate fall damage to make you attack for more damage in certain climates, all available to mix and match as necessary.
They can be purchased, or found out and around in the world.
Any armor set name that's hyperlinked in the tables below are sets for which we have complete guides to finding said armor.
