How to get the Yiga Clan armor set in Tears of the Kingdom (TotK)

Link can collect quite a few outfits in Tears of the Kingdom, and some offer desirable perks. The Yiga Clan armor is not to be missed for players who prefer a sneaky approach. The complete set is broken up into three parts, and they can all be obtained relatively easily. Here’s how to get all of the Yiga Clan armor pieces in TotK.

How to get the Yiga Armor in TotK

It’s best to start with the Yiga Armor, as it’s the easiest one to acquire. This is the torso part of the outfit. The Yiga Armor is located in the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab, which is up the road from the East Akkala Stable. The Jochi-iu Shrine is a convenient point to begin the journey from.

At the tech lab, Link will encounter a pair of Yiga enemies. They are pretty fast, and they can teleport away before reappearing at close range. They can be slowed down with a Topaz-infused magic rod, or an arrow fused to Yellow Chuchu Jelly.

How to find the Yiga Mask in TotK

The next piece to acquire is the mask. The Yiga Mask is found to the east of Mount Hylia, in the Yiga Clan stronghold. The fort is surrounded by spikes, so it’s best to glide in by jumping off the ledge of Mount Hylia. Alternatively, glide in from Gerudo Canyon Skyview Tower. There will be two Yiga clan members guarding the fort, but once they are defeated, the Yiga Mask is up for grabs.

How to find the Yiga Tights in TotK

The tights are the last part of the Yiga Clan armor. The Yiga Tights can be found in another Yiga Clain stronghold located in a cave. The exact coordinates are in the image above. Once again, there will be a pair of Yiga Clain members keeping watch. After defeating them, have Link use Ascend to access the next floor of the cave where the pants are located.

Once the Yiga Clan set is complete, Link can enter the Yiga Clan hideout.

What does the Yiga Armor do in TotK?

While the Yiga Armor doesn’t provide much protection in the form of defense, it does greatly improve your stealth capabilities. The increased stealth it grants can be used to sneak up on enemies more efficiently and to get close to horses without spooking them. For combat, it requires a much more careful approach, but can be extremely effective in the right hands.

Above all, The Yiga Armor allows you to blend in with Yiga Clan members. With this ability, you can enter areas normally reserved for members of the clan. Just note that Master Kohga will easily notice you don’t belong, but everyone else will be none the wiser.

Finally, if the bright red tights aren’t quite to your liking, you can change the color of the outfit by visiting Kochi Dye Shop in Hateno Village. This won’t affect the clan’s attitude towards you.
