BotW Jewelry and Monster Masks: Prices, Effects, Where to Get
Breath of the Wild jewelry from the Gerudo Town shop: rupee and gem costs, effects, upgrades, plus the four monster masks, their Mon prices and whether they work.
This page covers two kinds of headgear in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild that belong to no armor set: the six jewelry pieces made in Gerudo Town, and the four monster masks Kilton sells at Fang and Bone. Jewelry costs rupees plus gems; masks cost Mon, the currency Kilton pays for monster parts. For every armor piece see all armor.
Where do you buy jewelry, and what does it cost?
Jewelry is made at Starlight Memories, the jewelry shop in Gerudo Town (Show on map). Only women may enter Gerudo Town, so you need the Gerudo disguise first; see the Gerudo set.
The shop is closed when you arrive: Isha has run out of flint to make jewelry with. Finish the side quest Tools of the Trade by bringing her 10 Flint and the shop reopens; she also gives you your choice of the Ruby Circlet, Sapphire Circlet or Topaz Earrings. See Tools of the Trade. After that, every piece costs rupees plus gems you bring yourself:
| Jewelry | Rupees | Gems | Effect | Defense (base → 4 stars) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Amber Earrings | 100 | Amber ×10 | None (defense only) | 4 → 28 |
| Opal Earrings | 200 | Opal ×8 | Swim Speed Up | 3 → 20 |
| Topaz Earrings | 500 | Topaz ×5 | Shock Resistance | 3 → 18 |
| Ruby Circlet | 500 | Ruby ×3 | Cold Resistance | 3 → 20 |
| Sapphire Circlet | 800 | Sapphire ×3 | Heat Resistance | 3 → 20 |
| Diamond Circlet | 1,500 | Diamond ×3 | Guardian Resist Up | 4 → 28 |
All six cost 3,600 rupees together. For gems see gem farming; for rupees see how to farm rupees.
You can get one Diamond Circlet free. After you activate Tu Ka’loh Shrine on Lomei Labyrinth Island, a hole opens in front of the shrine into the labyrinth’s basement, and the chest in the middle holds a Diamond Circlet. The basement is full of Guardians; see the three Lomei Labyrinths.
What does each piece do?
- Diamond Circlet: “It’s decorated with a diamond, which harnesses the power of light to reduce damage received from ancient enemies.” The effect is Guardian Resist Up, the same as the Ancient Helm, and it also reaches 28 defense at four stars.
- Ruby Circlet and Sapphire Circlet: Cold Resistance and Heat Resistance, for when you want the protection without changing your whole outfit. For how temperature works see temperature and weather.
- Topaz Earrings: Shock Resistance. They top out at 18 defense, a little below the others.
- Opal Earrings: Swim Speed Up, the same effect as the Zora Helm.
- Amber Earrings: no special effect; amber “harnesses the power of the land to increase defense when equipped.” At four stars they match the Diamond Circlet’s 28 and cost the least to make.
Jewelry is never part of a set, so there is no set bonus. Upgrades raise defense only; the effect itself does not get stronger. For what to wear for each job, see best armor.
How do you upgrade jewelry, and what does it take?
All six go to four stars at a Great Fairy Fountain:
| Jewelry | ★1 | ★2 | ★3 | ★4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diamond Circlet | Diamond ×2, Flint ×3 | Diamond ×4, Flint ×3 | Diamond ×6, Star Fragment ×1 | Diamond ×10, Star Fragment ×1 |
| Ruby Circlet | Ruby ×2, Flint ×3 | Ruby ×4, Flint ×3 | Ruby ×6, Star Fragment ×1 | Ruby ×10, Star Fragment ×1 |
| Sapphire Circlet | Sapphire ×2, Flint ×3 | Sapphire ×4, Flint ×3 | Sapphire ×6, Star Fragment ×1 | Sapphire ×10, Star Fragment ×1 |
| Topaz Earrings | Topaz ×2, Flint ×3 | Topaz ×4, Flint ×3 | Topaz ×6, Star Fragment ×1 | Topaz ×10, Star Fragment ×1 |
| Opal Earrings | Opal ×5, Flint ×3 | Opal ×8, Flint ×3 | Opal ×16, Flint ×3 | Opal ×20, Flint ×3 |
| Amber Earrings | Amber ×5, Flint ×3 | Amber ×10, Flint ×3 | Amber ×20, Flint ×3 | Amber ×30, Flint ×3 |
Totals to four stars: the Diamond Circlet, Ruby Circlet, Sapphire Circlet and Topaz Earrings each need 22 of their gem, 6 Flint and 2 Star Fragments; the Opal Earrings need 49 Opals and 12 Flint; the Amber Earrings need 65 Amber and 12 Flint. For Star Fragments see Star Fragment farming; the armor upgrade calculator adds up several pieces at once.
Where do you buy the monster masks?
All four masks are sold by Kilton at Fang and Bone. He only trades at night: the first time you find him at Skull Lake in Akkala after dark, and after that he sets up outside the villages. He only takes his own currency, Mon, which he pays for monster parts. For where to find him and what parts are worth, see Kilton’s Fang and Bone.
| Mask | Price (Mon) | In stock after freeing | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bokoblin Mask | 99 | 0 Divine Beasts | “It’s almost charming in a cute, monstrous kind of way… Equip it to blend in with Bokoblins.” |
| Moblin Mask | 199 | 1 | “It’s designed to replicate the Moblin’s distinct long nose and large horn.” |
| Lizalfos Mask | 299 | 2 | “It’s designed to replicate the unique tongue and horn of the Lizalfos.” |
| Lynel Mask | 999 | 3 | “It’s so well crafted, it can deceive a real Lynel.” |
Every mask has 3 defense and cannot be upgraded or dyed. All four together cost 1,596 Mon.
Can you blend in with monsters while wearing a mask?
Yes, but only with that one kind of monster. In a mask, the matching monsters come over to look at you but do not attack. Link reportedly also takes on a monster’s idle stance and makes monster noises as he walks.
Things to know:
- Only its own kind is fooled. In the Bokoblin Mask, a Lizalfos or Moblin nearby will still attack you.
- Attacking breaks the disguise. Hit them while wearing the mask and they fight back.
- Lynels see through it. The Lynel Mask’s description ends with “don’t linger too long. Those beasts are smart.” A Lynel holds off at first, then recognizes you and attacks anyway.
- Put it on before they spot you. Changing into a mask after a monster has already noticed you reportedly does not fool it.
