Link has been known to wear numerous different outfits and armor sets throughout his time trying to save Hyrule. One iconic set of armor from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has made a return in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. This armor set is the Hylian Armor Set.
While it may seem like a pretty basic set at first, it is a pretty solid set. Not only does it have good base defense, but it can also be enhanced easily. Thankfully, this version of the Hylian Armor is even better than the last version. Link is able to put the Hylian Hood Down. This guide will tell you how to find the set and how to put down that annoying hood once and for all.
The Hylian Armor Set
As mentioned before, the base defense of this armor set is 3. This means the whole set has a base defense of 9. Unfortunately, there is no set bonus for equipping the full set. However, this set can easily be enhanced at any of the Great Fairy Fountains. To begin with, all you need is 3 Bokoblin Horns each. This will increase the set to have a defense of 15. After that, you'll just need Blue Bokoblin Horns and Bokoblin Fangs.
This level will increase the defense to 24. The third level requires Black Bokoblin Horns, Bokoblin Guts, and Amber. This will increase the armor's defense to 36. The final level requires Silver Bokoblin Horns, Bokoblin Guts, and Amber. It gives a defense of 60. While this may be difficult to reach, the first two levels are pretty easy. This is an amazing early-game set. This is a must-have because you can get the defense to 24 pretty quickly. It can also be dyed at the Hateno Village Dye Shop.
The Hylian Armor Set Location
This armor set can be purchased as soon as you reach Lookout Landing in the game.
The Hylian Hood only costs 70 Rupees.
The Hylian Tunic only costs 130 Rupees.
Finally, the Hylian Trousers only cost 120 Rupees.
How To Put Down The Hylian Hood
After helping Cece in Hateno Village, you can return to her store.
Upon entering the shop with the Hylian Hood on, she will ask if you want her to add her personal Cece Touch to it.
Saying sure will allow Link to remove his Hylian Hood. If you ever want it back up, repeat the process.
