BotW Zora Armor Set: Helm, Armor and Greaves Locations, Bonus
Where to get the Zora Armor, Zora Helm and Zora Greaves in Breath of the Wild, the Swim Dash Stamina Up bonus, defense and every upgrade.
The Zora set is the swimming set, and the Zora Armor alone lets you swim up waterfalls, which the Vah Ruta quest needs. The other two pieces are near Zora’s Domain. For every set see all armor; for the Great Fairies see armor upgrade materials.
Where do you find each piece of the Zora set?
Two quest rewards and one chest (the Helm’s position is from the game’s placement data):
- Zora Armor — the main quest Divine Beast Vah Ruta in Zora’s Domain.
- Zora Greaves — the side quest Lynel Safari in Zora’s Domain.
- Zora Helm — a chest at Toto Lake. Part Seven of the Zora Stone Monuments points to it.

|---|---|---|
| Zora Helm | Chest · Toto Lake | Show on map |

| ★ | Lizalfos Horn ×3 |
| ★★ | Lizalfos Talon ×5, Hyrule Bass ×5 |
| ★★★ | Lizalfos Tail ×5, Hearty Bass ×5 |
| ★★★★ | Lizalfos Tail ×10, Opal ×15 |
Every piece in this set uses these materials.
Every star needs Lizalfos parts; the second and third add Hyrule Bass and Hearty Bass, and the fourth needs 15 Opals per piece. For the order to take on the Divine Beasts see Divine Beasts order; for Waterblight Ganon inside Vah Ruta see the Blights.
When should you wear the Zora set?
Wear the Armor whenever you need to climb a waterfall, and the full set for long swims in Lanayru and along the coast. The Zora Armor alone is enough most of the time.
