The Yiga Armor in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom lets you sneak past foes with ease, but it's fairly tricky to access. You'll need to get to a far-out point in Hyrule. Also, there are a couple of Yiga enemies you need to defeat. With that in mind, here's how to find the Yiga Armor in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Where can you find the Yiga Armor?

The Yiga Armor in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is located in the most northeastern section of Hyrule. To be specific, you'll need to find Akkala Ancient Tech Lab, which is nearby the Jochi-iu Shrine. It's also close to North Akkala Beach and east of Tumlea Heights.

Once you arrive, have Link knock on the door. A few Yiga clansmen pop out and begin to attack the Hero of Time. They'll hit you hard, so make sure you have a strong weapon. They can hit quickly, so a bow and arrow would be a good way to eliminate these foes. Be careful of the shorter Yiga leaping into the air and striking you from above.

Where is the Yiga Mask?

The Yiga Armor doesn't complete the set, however. You'll need to go south to find the Yiga Mask. The house it is in is located south of the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower and near the Great Plateau. You may also notice the Temple of Time nearby. Basically, this is the area you first explore in Breath of the Wild

Keep heading south until you reach a house surrounded by a spiky wooden barricade. Chop down a tree and then use the branch to get over the spikes easily. Now that you're by the house, knock on the door and fight two more Yiga enemies. After beating them, you'll find another stylist named Pitar. They will give you the Yiga Mask.

Where can you get the Yiga Tights?

The last part of the Yiga Armor set, the Yiga Tights, can be found at Aldor Foothills. It's west of the Great Hyrule Forest and east of the Kiuyoyou Shrine. It is also northwest of Hyrule Castle across the river. Look throughout the Aldor Foothills until you find two stones with the red Yiga eye symbol on them in front of a cave. The location is called the Yiga Clan Maritta Branch and it's slightly southeast of the Aldor Foothills text on the map.

Enter inside and beat the two Yiga clansmen inside. Then, look to the ceiling and find a hole. You'll see a green tinge around the box. Now, use the Ascend ability to get up to the room. Aliza will be happy to be saved by Link. She'll give you the Yiga Tights. You now have the full Yiga look.

Once both of these Yiga clansmen are defeated, enter the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab. You'll find a character with a white hat named Konba, a stylist who was kidnapped by the Yiga. As a thank you, he gives Link the Yiga Armor. "Burn it, toss it, do what you want," Konba says. "Just get it away from me."
