Tears of the Kingdom Royal Guard Set: Hyrule Castle Chests and Set Bonus
Where to find the Royal Guard Cap, Uniform and Boots in Hyrule Castle in Tears of the Kingdom, the Charge Atk. Stamina Up bonus, defense and upgrades.
The Royal Guard set is a Hyrule Castle set: all three pieces are chests inside the castle, and the bonus is the same charged-attack one as the Barbarian set. For every set see all armor.
Where do you find each piece of the Royal Guard set?
All three are chests in Hyrule Castle (Game8; positions from the game’s placement data):
- Royal Guard Cap — Princess Zelda’s Room.
- Royal Guard Uniform — above the Guards’ Chamber: Ascend through the ceiling with cobwebs. Game8 suggests putting a wooden slab under that spot with Ultrahand, because the floor there is covered in Gloom.
- Royal Guard Boots — the King’s Study.

Upgrades are done at a Great Fairy Fountain, one star at a time, for rupees plus materials. The table is per piece; the whole set needs three times as much.

|---|---|---|
| ★ | Boss Bokoblin Horn ×3, Bokoblin Guts ×3 | 10 |
| ★★ | Blue Boss Bokoblin Horn ×3, Boss Bokoblin Guts ×3 | 50 |
| ★★★ | Black Boss Bokoblin Horn ×3, Hinox Guts ×3 | 200 |
| ★★★★ | Silver Boss Bokoblin Horn ×3, Molduga Guts ×3, Gleeok Guts ×3 | 500 |
Every piece in this set uses these materials.
The top star needs guts from two big monsters, see Moldugas and Gleeoks.
