How to get the Soldier’s Armor set in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

The A soldier’s armor in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a great basic set that can be accessed early in the game. It can also be upgraded, making it a good long-term choice. However, it is not the easiest to find.

This armor set – consisting of Soldier’s Armor, Soldier’s Helmet and Soldier’s Greaves – can be found under Hyrule Castle. However, the caves under the castle are quite a maze, so follow these steps to get the Soldier’s Armor.

You’ll have to break a lot of debris on this adventure, so it’s worth taking some with you arrows And bomb flowersif you want to make quick work of this quest.

Soldier’s Armor chest piece location

Go to the main gate of the castle, which is located at the coordinates (-0254, 0621, 0043).

From here, climb over the wall and enter the main part of the castle. Follow the path to the left until you come to an entrance flanked by two dead trees.

Enter this opening and use Ultrahand to move the two metal gates. Go up the stairs on the left and then turn right into this corridor with a faded red carpet. There will be two in the room ahead Terrible.

After defeating the Horriblin, take the entrance on the right and climb the stairs to the Observation room.

Use Ultrahand on the trap door and climb down to the Royal hidden passageway. There’s a chest here with one in it diamond.

Go down the stairs and fight a Blue Lizalfos en route. You can slide down, but on the first level it’s worth finding the room just next to the stairs with one Black Bokoblin. There are two chests in this room with one inside knight halberd and a bow of a soldierand if you break the boxes, there are a lot of powerful ingredients.

After that, you won’t miss much if you hover, but if you choose to walk, keep an eye out for the Kees and the Red Chuchu. At the bottom you will find a carved stone with some knowledge and a small tunnel that leads to a breakable wall. Merge a weapon with the stone here if needed, and start breaking through.

On the other side, defeat the mini-stone talus and then continue through the Luminous stone here. You fall into another room with one like like.

You can beat or ignore this Like Like, just continue to the bottom of this area. If you go north you will find another small area with the Bubblefrog and some ore, but you actually want to pass the Like Like to the south of this room to find another destructible debris area.

Break through to find a flat platform and drop down to find more debris underneath. Destroying this will open a circular arc in the wall you just fell off.

Through this are several Bokoblins as well as some weapons to pick up. When you’re done with that, go to the back cell where there’s a large boulder in the ground. Lift this with Ultra convenient to reveal an entrance you can fall into.

Go to the end of this tunnel and use To take off. Don’t go too high through the hole in the ceiling here, otherwise you will end up in the room with the Like Like again. You want to be in the cell room again, in the locked cell with a Bokoblin. Defeat it and destroy the wooden boxes here for a bunch of arrows if you want.

However, the real price is that the A soldier’s armor brisket can be found here in the chest. This grants four defenses, making it stronger than most of the early armor in the game, and it can also be upgraded at Great Fairy fountains.

Location of Soldier’s Armor Headpiece

Return through the corridor, To take off back to the prison room and re-enter the room through the hole in the rubble you made here. On the other side will be another destructible area beyond some bomb flowers – this one is blue rather than brown. This material is much stronger, so use the bomb flowers to break through.

Move forward and do the same at the next area of ​​blue debris. Enter the water here and swim to the protruding pillars. Look to the left (from the direction you first entered this cave) and you’ll see a passageway blocked by black debris. Bomb arrows didn’t seem to do much here, so swim over and smash this with a hammer-like weapon.

In the next room you will find one Ice like to the left. If you step on the ice platforms it creates, Link will freeze and deal cold damage, so try to beat him quickly to avoid filling up the entire room. Once defeated, enter the room it was in and look to the left to find the chest containing the Soldier helmet. Like the chest piece, this gives you four defense points.

Soldier’s Armor legs location

Go back to the pool and go through the small opening on the left. (Although you may want to head to the main area of ​​this room to collect more Rock-Fused weapons, as you’ll need a lot of these and/or Bombflowers to keep going.)

Through the blue rubble straight ahead you can see some ore deposits, but you actually want to follow the trail as it makes a sharp left turn and rises in a spiral. Watch out for Keese, including an electric variant near the first ore deposit on this route. At the top there will be more debris to destroy.

Through here will one Moblin and some Bokoblin – the easiest way to defeat them is to slam them into the water below. You can also go down here to find a small room with glowing cavefish, tireless frogs (key for stamina recipes), and fairies. When you’re done, continue along the ledge above and break another blue rubble wall.

Defeat the two stone taluses here and turn your attention to the rubble. You want to focus on the back area where it meets the wall, where a stalactite is pointing down. Don’t forget the jump attacks (X followed by Y).

There are some smaller prizes in this room – break the rubble in the back right to find a chest with a Claymore of a soldier – but again, the most important thing to do is beat a Like Like.

Open the chest to the left of it Soldier shootsthe last part of the soldier’s armor. Again, this piece provides four points of protection until upgraded.
