How to Get the Snowquil Armor in Tears of the Kingdom

Learn where to buy the Snowquill Armor set in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, its costs, and how to upgrade it for cold resistance and the Unfreezable set bonus.

Alright, so you're looking to brave the chilly parts of Hyrule in Tears of the Kingdom, huh? Smart move! The Snowquill Armor is exactly what you need to keep that cold from chipping away at your health. You can snag all the pieces over in Rito Village, which is located in the Hebra region. Just head to the armor shop there, and you'll be able to pick them up.

Here's the breakdown of what each piece costs:

So, to get the whole set, you're looking at a total of 2150 Rupees. It's a bit of a grind, but totally worth it for that cold resistance! The set itself gives you a base defense of 9, but if you're looking to really beef it up, you can take it to a Great Fairy. They can upgrade it all the way to a defense of 60, but fair warning, that's going to take a lot of materials and Rupees.

Now, about the set bonus – this is where it gets really interesting. If you manage to get all three pieces of the Snowquill Armor and upgrade them twice, you'll unlock the Unfreezable bonus. This is a lifesaver against enemies that try to freeze you, like those annoying Ice Like Likes. If you're just trying to get by in the cold and don't need the Unfreezable bonus, focusing on the Snowquill Headdress and Tunic will give you the most bang for your buck, as they're the cheapest pieces.

If you're planning on upgrading this armor, you'll need to find the Great Fairies scattered across Hyrule. Each piece starts with a base defense of 3, and they all have the same upgrade requirements. Here's what you'll need to get each piece up to level 20:

Just remember, to get any armor piece all the way to level 20, you'll need to have found and unlocked all four Great Fairies across Hyrule. So, happy hunting for those fairies and those Rupees!
