Zelda: TOTK Vah Ruta Divine Helm Location

To obtain the treasure, you must find the Cave Under Zora’s Domain located beneath the city. You can discover the entrance by passing through a large waterfall underneath the Great Zora Bridge. Remember to unequip your Zora armor set, or Link will climb up the waterfall automatically.

Once you’re inside, you will see a large chasm hole leading to the Depths. You can ignore it and pull out your Paraglider to reach the small waterfall inside the cave. Beyond the falling water, you will discover a hidden chamber with a treasure chest containing the Vah Ruta Divine Helm.

This old relic was the favored headgear of the previous Sage of Water. Besides offering 2 Defense and the Swim Speed Up buff, it will also strengthen the bond with the Zora. That means Sidon’s power will be more potent whenever Link equips this item.

While it doesn’t belong to an armor set, you can stack the Swim Speed Up effect by wearing multiple items with this specific buff like, say, the Zora armor set. Finally, the Vah Ruta Helm can also be obtained by scanning The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Mipha Amiibo.
