Armor is integral to combat in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, with the best armors upgradable and offering bonuses to defence. However, with so many to track down and equip, it can be difficult to know where to look and which to use. Here’s all Armors and their locations in Zelda: TOTK.

All Armor Locations in Zelda: TOTK

As will be familiar to any Tears of the Kingdom players, armor pieces are typically broken down into three categories: Helmets, Chest Pieces and Leg Pieces. We’ve split up the armor pieces accordingly, including detailing their locations in Hyrule and whether they’re part of a set.
