The Yiga Armor in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a crucial set of armor for you to grab if you want to sneak around certain places undetected. Specifically, it helps you to look like a Yiga Clan member, which gives Link the chance to get up to all sorts of mischief in their hideouts.

As with other armor sets in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the Yiga Armor will require you to do a fair amount of travelling around Hyrule. You'll also need to battle a few enemies at each location, so we recommend stocking up on some attack or defense boosting meals and elixirs.

When you're ready, we're here to show you how to get the Yiga Armor in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Yiga Armor explained

The Yiga Clan Armor in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has a few benefits that make it worth tracking down. The first one is that each piece increases Link's stealth, making it easier for him to sneak around enemies and launch surprise attacks. The other bonus it has is that the armor makes Link look like a member of the Yiga Clan, which is useful for sneaking into their hideouts undetected.

You can upgrade the Yiga Armor in at a Great Fairy Fountain up to four times, each upgrade will apply to individual pieces of the armor, you cannot upgrade the set as a whole which means you'll need to farm quite a few supplies.

Here's a list of each upgrade for the Yiga Armor and how much it will cost:

How to get the Yiga Tights in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

To get the Yiga Tights in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you need to go to the Yiga Clan Maritta Branch entrance in Aldor Foothills. This is west of Great Hyrule Forest, slightly north west of Hyrule Castle and east of Kiuyoyou Shrine.

We've marked its exact location on the map below and the Yiga Clan Maritta Branch coordinates are (-0641, 2031, 0157).

When you get here, walk into the hideout inside the cave and defeat the two Yiga Clan members here. Fire, Ice, and Shock weapons are particularly helpful in this instance.

Once you've defeated the duo, stand at these coordinates in the cave (-0659, 2104, 0145) and look up. You should see a hole in the ceiling.

Use Ascend to get up into the room here, and then speak to Aliza in here to claim the Yiga Tights.

How to get the Yiga Mask in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

To get the Yiga Mask in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you need to go to a Yiga Clan hideout in the Great Plateau. This will be east of Mount Hylia and south of the Temple of Time ruins.

We've marked the exact location on the map below and the coordinates for the Yiga Clan hideout in the Great Plateau are (-0783, -2256, 0088).

When you get here, you'll notice that the entire hideout is protected by spikes. You can easily hop and glide over these by climbing up a boulder on the side of the hideout, or you can use your Paraglider to glide over from the side of Mount Hylia.

Once you find a way over the spikes, knock on the door to the hideout and two Yiga Clan members will appear to fight Link. Defeat them as you did with the previous pair.

Once you've beaten them, head inside the building and speak to Pitar on the right in here to claim the Yiga Mask.

How to get the Yiga Armor in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

To get the final piece of this set, you need to head to the Akkala Ancient Tech lab to get the Yiga Armor chest piece in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. This can be found in the north east section of Deep Akkala. The lab is east of Death Mountain, north east of Akkala Highlands, and north of East Akkala Stable.

We've marked its exact location on the map below and the coordinates for the Akkala Ancient Tech lab are (4510, 3151, 0247).

When you get to the lab, walk up to the door and knock on it to alert the Yiga Clan members to your presence.

Again, you will need to defeat the two Clan members that appear. Once you've done this, head inside the lab and speak to Konba on the left to claim the Yiga Armor chest piece.

Psst...before you leave the lab, we also recommend grabbing the Travel Medallion from the chest near the armor piece.

Now that you've collected every piece of the Yiga Armor, perhaps you would like some more. Check out our guides that show you the Phantom Armor and the Zora Armor locations across Hyrule.
