I guess i used climbing set more, love you guys´ Zelda lists btw, wish they continue indefinitely.

[@johnathanholmes1297]

Five suits I wear often in the game? Hylian Set for travels. Zora Set for Zora Domain. Snowquill for Snowing Mountains. Desert Voe Set + Sapphire Circlet (Makes me feel like a Prince of the Dessert) And Phantom Set with either Lynel Mask or Majora Mask.

Soldiers Armour

[@MrSonicHedgehog]

On top of the Zora Armor making swimming a breeze, the sentimental value also makes it VERY favorable since Mipha painstakingly made it herself as a way of proposing to Link

[@frederick0709]

A remnant of the best Zora Waifu next to Ruto.

[@MrSonicHedgehog]

@@frederick0709 Agreed

[@yan13502]

It is also one of the only sets you can't sell, proof that Link has a special attachment to this one.

[@frederick0709]

@@yan13502 that's a nice fact. Guess some people are gonna have a WHALE of a time.

[@PuffyKat]

I wouldn’t let myself dye it

[@omniultimate]

fun fact about the rubber set bonus. you can still be damaged by Naboris's Lightning during the sand seal chase, despite being unshockable.

[@pegmay7209]

I upgraded the set to max and I don’t get shocked by Naboris.

[@scented_meat]

I trusted it and got zapped so hard

[@Doppo69]

Shocking..

[@sparklefulpaladin]

Yeah, I tried this method and it failed. I think Vah Naboris's shocks are somehow stronger and can only be blocked by the Thunder Helm Aura...

[@coreyanderson-qx7qn]

​@@pegmay7209 Then that might be the only way.. because I stopped at level 2 and I got shocked by shock arrows and by Naboris.

[@ronaldcastaneda681]

I love switching between sets for the appropriate situation. Each Armor has a specific function. It works and I love all of them. The ones that i need to collect are the DLC ones. Just got DLC, and I'm treasure hunting, also found the ancient horse armor and I love summoning it when I'm in my adventures.

[@chirsbom337]

Stealth, climbing, swimming, ancient, rubber and flame, those are the key imo. I actually use stealth the most as it makes collecting skittish animals on the fly a breeze, and sneacking up on mobs gives a real advantage early on.

[@faliblechip5437]

Stealth armour costs a lot though

[@foaduk9118]

​@@faliblechip5437its not that much, if u go to hebra mountain tower and fly down to the small shack, there is a guy with a snowball and u can do bowling for 20 rupees and if u get a stike you get 300 rupees

[@miguelmendoza3403]

​@@faliblechip5437it is worth it.

[@kharl92]

​@faliblechip5437 sell some diamonds and you'll be good

[@queteimporta8026]

​@@faliblechip5437yeah, but once you get a decent weapon or plenty of hammers and know where are aprox 5 talus you can go, farme them and sell all the minerals, do this every blood moon and thats all, easy money and it helps you improvise fight skills

[@Aligames5747]

One thing that I have to mention is that bone atk up is actually for not just literal bones from your enemies, but any weapon that has bones. So dragonbone moblin club is 45 damage +80% is 81 then if you use an attack up food you get another +50% at level 3 attack so that's 40.5, idk how the game rounds things but let's just say it's 41. That's 122 damage per hit people! Don't sleep on this buff, because that was assuming the weapon doesn't have an attack up modifier on its own, assuming it really is just 45 damage and goes through that calculation, that's something like 488 damage per flurry rush. Also, if you want to put that stealth to good use, do a sneakstrike sneakstrikes are your weapons damage times 9 which means that a sneakstrike is a CRAZY 1098 damage per hit! This one shots a lot of enemies in the game and it's a great combination, that's what's so interesting to me about breath of the wild buffs and just stats. Edit: if it doesn't round to 41 but rather 40 then it's still a 1,089 damage per hit, so either way it's really good.

[@josepha9306]

What’s funny is that you can just use the thunder helm to be immune to any lighting storms, swords, and arrows instead of having to get the rubber set.

[@Ivy0675]

You can only get the thunder helm after u defeat naboris

[@damianolima2100]

I hope we get an armor in tears of the kingdom that boost's your running speed and when upgraded it lowers the stamina consumption. One of the things of that armor would be that the feet are bare and highly focused on for front foot

[@Link-to-the-Smash]

What if there was a rain equivalent?

[@krishnamckay3247]

How do you feel now that it didnt happen?

[@damianolima2100]

​@@krishnamckay3247there is none like that? Shit

[@corriec28500]

I mostly use Ancient set because I farm major test shrines for the Battle Axe++. However, Knowing how much damage you do per hit with the champion's tunic is useful for drawn out fights like lynels :)

[@fatalwaffle1715]

The Fierce Deity set and the Dark Link set are also the best.

[@Evil12monks]

I like the dark link set to go around and scare NPC.

[@darrentrowbridge6389]

Is there a way to get the amiibo stuff without buy the amiibo?

[@fatalwaffle1715]

Nope.

[@meandmyboys8728]

My personal favorite is the barbarian set, it’s literally the only way I can kill lynels

[@dragonboyROCKS7620]

Get master sword dlc 😂

[@johngallagher9354]

The Barbarian and Phantom Ganon armors are my personal favorite.

[@thomasohare]

Ancient armour is by FAR the best armor. Good base stats and damage boost with ancient/guardian weapons and when fighting guardians its even better

[@enriquefavela3750]

Phantom Ganon set boosts attack on bone weapons such as dragon bone Moblin club. Not just the arm limbs you get from stal enemies.

[@sledgen.]

I think you forgot about the stealth set, as tier 3 stealth is extremely useful, including night speed when upgraded twice with the great fairy. It’s clearly better than the phantom ganon set and has decent defence too. You also should’ve included the desert voe set, with an easy tier 3 resistance to heat, as well as some defence AND a set bonus when twice upgraded with a great fairy: shock damage resistance. I have no idea why these didn’t make it to your list. Good video, but next time, research it a little more because you forgot two extremely good sets.

[@RatedFforFUGlenda]

Noight set has tier 1 cold resistance

[@adozalSTV]

I’m super late and barely doing my first playthrough. Ima keep these in mind thank you🤘

[@stephaniedowdy7359]

Yeah I wear the stealth the most especially at night cause you run so fast 😂

[@timothybuff8338]

i dont think they didnt do their research, i just think like most lists its an opinated one. 2 they most likely just wanted to make sure that some of the dlc armor was included, it being a definitive list and all😅

[@sledgen.]

@@timothybuff8338 I’m not surprised. It doesn’t look like they put special care into what they chose, but yeah!

[@AnticsUpInHere]

One of my favorites is the fierce deity set, it’s go the same perks as the barb set when upgraded, but it looks way cooler in my opinion. Majoras mask was my favorite Zelda game next to BOTW. Ancient set and the wild set are my 2 runner ups.

[@greenlight2323]

Climbing gear is my favorite at the beginning. Then the tunic of the wild and barbarian.

[@CouragelessOne]

The Dark Armor looks so cool, as well as it giving you increased damage and high defense

[@adamrodriguez8307]

What’s that dark armor?

[@CouragelessOne]

@@adamrodriguez8307 Phantom armor in the dlc

[@Thenix-]

@@CouragelessOne that doesn’t have a high defense😂 it’s 24 the ancient armor has more 3 times the defense.

[@CouragelessOne]

@@Thenix- 24 base defense. This, paired with the fact that the dark armor is much easier to obtain early game than ancient armor, makes it pretty good. Most other early game armors have a defense of like 5 at most. Not the best armor, but certainly a good set to have in the early game.

[@mrreddington777]

@@CouragelessOnejust got the dlc and will look for this. Thanks bud.

[@krishnamckay3247]

My favorite is Gerudo Voe. I was hoping to see it on here but I found out people usually use food for heat resistance. Actually the only food I use is hearty, enduring & mighty. I was thinking I should use tough more... But for clothes, I mainly wear the Gerudo outfit & then only wear what I need. So the only others I carry are flamebreaker, snowquill, zora & gerudo vai. I was wondering if I should try Sheikah more but I seem to be in the minority & I feel kinda odd about it

[@RealCFZ]

While the Champion’s Tunic, Ancient set Soldier set, and Tunic of the Wild set is best for defense, but I stick with style with a Green Dyed Cap of the Wild, Green Dyed Hylian Tunic, and Brown Dyed Hylian Trousers . More traditional green tunic is fitting for me. Still hype on Link’s new green outfit in Tears of the Kingdom.

[@xsanguinemoonx]

I used the Royal Guard set and Stealth set a lot ~ 🌙💜🌙

[@reynaldomar6150]

Hands down the Dark link is my favorite set looks so dope! Always was my favorite ever since I seen him playing ocarina of time on the Nintendo 64!

[@G_Money100]

I used the barbarian set the most it’s just a perfect set

[@Maheli_Seli]

How about the Shieka Ninja Set ? It is totally OP in my opinion

[@Archway_]

No

[@feddythefirst]

The thunder helm literally does the same thing as the rubber set

[@samfisher5056]

The rito's set,zora set and the barbarian set were my favorites

[@Fruitbydafooty]

I still rock the soldier set and I’ve upgraded it so much at the fairy fountain that silver enemies can’t one shot me 😂

[@daeescobar1762]

Now it’s crazy my nephew got most of all the armors plus weapons including the master sword and even the dark link and went to the castle to be Gannon and beat him and he ain’t even have everything. I ain’t even get around this game it really is time consuming

[@dougcarey2233]

I find myself switching between the stealth and climbing sets most often. Occasionally I don the soldier set for a boss fight.

[@M4STER_K0HGA]

I always either wear Majora’s mask with the royal guard uniform and boots, other wise the classic link set. But the most useful one is undoubtably the barbarian set, you can kill a Lynel with an Edge of duality in like 20 hits!

[@leugimrc]

Barbarian elmet and trousers and the blue tunic. Is my favorite clothes to fight lynels

[@derekmccluskey4931]

I just got a switch earlier this year. I just got the wild tunic after defeating all shrines. Only two things remain. Get my own house and fight Gannon. But first I'm going to track down dragons to max out the wild armor

[@itsyaboyd7850]

I love that the gameplay in the video is literally just lynel's being bullied

[@Botlikegames]

My favourite is the phantom set as it has double the defense of the ancient and a little attack from the barbarian set but sadly you cant upgrade it

[@nathanjackson9560]

I was one of the ones to get the hero of the wild set... it took me so long.

[@maddestmike5791]

Fitting that one of the best things in a Zelda game would be made by a character based on Robin Williams. :)

[@lukeandlogan2607]

You forgot about the best armor of all… the birthday suite

[@fantaguyrealx]

The best armor sets come from the amiibos/amiibo cards

[@Archway_]

No they don’t 💀

[@derkiangrant]

i love the ancient set it is so good but very annoying to get but it is worth it

[@aleksanderhasne3926]

Fact about the royal Guard set: even tho it is not statet the royale gaurd set has the same Less stamina jumping While climbing and less stamina swiming but not faster climbing or faster swimming (my personnel favorite)

[@ChristyTina22]

I like the Gerudo Vai set. Not for any reason other than Link looks adorable.

[@krishnamckay3247]

That's my favorite too :) I was hoping to see it on here but I found out people usually use food for heat resistance. The only food I use is hearty, enduring & mighty. I was thinking I should use tough more...But anyway yea, I mainly wear the Gerudo outfit & I was wondering if I should try Sheikah more

[@johnathanholmes1297]

I grab the clothes I need to defeat Ganon Blights (Zora Set, Snowquill Set, and Flamebreaker) and dye them into color of the champions as a memento for them. The other difference is instead of the rubber suit, I use the Male Gerudo Set for Urbosa colors of her actual closes.

[@HeckaZecka]

I rocked the soldiers set my whole playthrough

[@felixespino430]

Favorite armor set is the Barbarian set. The damage attack boost makes defeating enemies easier. Second is champion's tunic. I like to see how many more hits I need to do until an enemy is defeated.

[@rikastemmet8849]

Awesome video I Love it

[@Ziizuyu]

It makes me sad that in the new game, the Barbarian armor loses that cool shoulder pad on the right arm due to the new arm

[@guillermodominguezdelafuen2730]

Why is not the Gerudo one mentioned? It's the same as snowquill and flamebreaker but applied to heat and electricity

[@dustybunny6716]

Spent most of the game wearing maxed Sheika stealth armor. Easiest way to catch bugs and lizards for crafting.

[@Lejo1]

The sheika armor is my number 1

[@hesayshesayhowboutmesay]

Barbarian and Climbing for me.

[@BiggerFigures10]

Thanks ❤

[@couldnotic]

I never really use the ancient gear all that much, I prefer the barbarian Armor because of the increase attack power.

[@akh-007]

you can just eat mighty food to boost your attack power instead. there is no reason to use barbarian armor over ancient unless you like spinning heavy weapons for extended periods of time for some reason

[@luigi50518]

My favorite is the Gerudo Male Armor Set.

[@krishnamckay3247]
