Discover how to find all three pieces of the Frostbite Armor set in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Includes locations for the Headdress, Shirt, and Trousers.
Hey there! Ready to gear up and brave the cold in Hyrule? The Frostbite Armor set is super useful for staying warm, and thankfully, it's not too tricky to find. Let's break down how to get each piece!
How to Get The Frostbite Headdress
First up is the Frostbite Headdress. You'll find this piece in the Lake Kilsie Cave. The easiest way to get there is to launch from the Rospro Pass Skyview Tower and glide down towards the northern part of the lake. As soon as you enter the cave, a Horriblin is going to jump out at you, so be ready! After you deal with it, keep moving forward until you see a big pit. Just drop down and use your paraglider to aim for a small cave opening. It'll be blocked by some rocks and have icicles hanging from it. Grab any weapon or a bomb and blast those rocks away, and you'll find the chest with the Frostbite Headdress right inside.
How to Get The Frostbite Shirt
Next, we've got the Frostbite Shirt. This one is tucked away in the Brightcap Cave. To get there efficiently, make your way to the Oromuwak Shrine. The cave itself is pretty straightforward. You'll encounter a Horriblin and a Like Like along the way, so make sure you're prepared to fight them. Once you get to the very end of the cave, you'll find the Frostbite Shirt waiting for you in a chest.
How to Get The Frostbite Trousers
Finally, let's grab the Frostbite Trousers, the last piece of the set. You'll need to head to the Hebra Headspring Cave, which is located at the northern end of the Hebra Headspring. The closest Shrine to this area is Nouda Shrine. If you use the Ascend ability through the rocks nearby, it can make getting there a bit easier. Once you're at the cave entrance (watch out for another Horriblin!), you'll see some ice. You'll need to use this ice to create a bridge to get over to the main part of the cave. Then, just climb up the rocky, non-iced sections. The Frostbite Trousers are right inside the cave in a chest. Open it up, and you'll have the full set!
How to Upgrade the Frostbite Armor
Once you've got the whole set, you'll probably want to upgrade it to make it even better. To do this, you need to find the Great Fairy Springs scattered across Hyrule – you'll need to unlock all four of them. The Frostbite Armor can be upgraded to level 20, and at that point, it'll give you the Cold Weather Attack Up bonus, which is awesome for fighting in chilly areas. Keep in mind that you have to upgrade all three pieces of the armor to level 20 to get the full benefit. Here's a look at what you'll need for each upgrade level:
| Defense Level | Items Needed | Rupees Needed |
| 5 | x3 Ice Fruit | 10 Rupees |
| 8 | x5 Ice-Breath Lizalfos Horn, x5 Winterwing Butterfly | 50 Rupees |
| 12 | x5 Cold Darner, x5 Ice Like Stone, x5 Large Zonai Charge | 200 Rupees |
| 20 | x5 Gleeok Frost Horn, x10 Large Zonai Charges, x10 Chillfin Trout | 500 Rupees |
Remember, unlocking all four Great Fairies is key to reaching that level 20 upgrade. Happy hunting!
