The Frostbite Armor Set in The Legend of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom is both aesthetically spectacular and functional. What makes the Frostbite Set unique and worthwhile is the added Ice Damage that it provides if you are in a cold region.
So, if you are interested in obtaining the Frostbite Set, the following guide is just for you. We will discuss the location of each armor piece.
How to get each piece of Frostbite Armor Set
The Frostbite Armor set consists of three armor pieces: a Frostbite Headdress, a Frostbite Shirt, and Frostbite Trousers. All three pieces can be acquired in different locations in Tears of the Kingdom.
Frostbite Trousers
The Frostbite Trousers are found in the Hebra Headspring Cave in TotK. The map image above will guide you to the cave’s entrance. To get there, head to the coordinates (-2886, 2501, 0392). This cave is to the north of Hebra Falls at the end of the Hebra Headspring.
Once inside the cave, you must carry on the straight path following the water stream to enter a larger room. You can hug the left side wall of the cave to find a few raised stone platform structures.
Using your bow, you can climb the first rock platform and snipe the two ice keese enemies. Then, jump onto the second rock platform. You will face the wall to your left to see an opening. Use your paraglider and press A to use Tulin’s Gust of Wind to propel you toward the cave wall.
Grab onto the wall and then climb and jump over to the opening to your left. Here, you can kill a Bubbul Frog to obtain a Bubbul Gem.
Now drop down back and, this time, face the wall to your right to see another opening. Use your paraglider and the Sage of Wind once more to propel you toward the cave wall.
Grab onto the wall and then climb and jump over to the opening. Here, you will find a chest in front of you, which you can open to get the Frostbite Trousers in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
Frostbite Shirt
The Frostbite Shirt is found in the Brightcap Cave east of Rito Village. The map image above will guide you to the cave’s entrance. To get there, head to the coordinates (-2996, 1660, 0199).
Head inside the cave and continue through the narrow path straight up ahead. To continue, you’ll need to kill a Horriblin. Do so and head straight along the path to enter a large room.
Next, you need to use a fire fruit using your bow to burn off thorny vines in this room. Wait a bit for the fire to spread and burn off the vines before climbing the wall with the thrones now just cleared. You can now kill a Bubbul Frog to obtain a Bubbul Gem.
Jump back down into the room and circle to find another chest. Another set of vines will block your access, so fire another fire fruit to burn them and clear the route. You can also use a sharp blade to cut these vines.
Now open the chest before you to obtain the Frostbite Shirt in Tears of the Kingdom.
Frostbite Headdress
The Frostbite Headdress is found in the Lake Kilsie Cave in TotK. The map image above will guide you to the cave’s entrance. To get there, head to the coordinates (-3918, 2842, -0016).
Defeat the Horriblin at the cave entrance and drop down. Use the air drafts to lift you up to the elevated section of the cave, where you can kill the Bubbul Frog to obtain a Bubbul Gem.
Now jump back down into the air draft to hover up and fire a Bomb Flower toward the ice crystals blocking your route to the cave section up ahead.
Now, use the wind again to glide through and enter the chest room. You can now open this chest to obtain the Frostbite Headdress in Tears of the Kingdom.
Frostbite Armor Set Stats and Upgrades
The Frostbite Armor set doesn’t provide any resistance against cold. You will need the Snowquill Armor set to survive the cold tundra of Tabantha. However, this armor set grants you ice damage against enemies if you fight them in a cold area.
Each piece of the Frostbite Armor Set in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom provides 2 Base Defense. Like most armor sets, it can also be upgraded up to 4 stars with the help of Great Fairy Fountains. Below is a list of materials you will need for one item (the rest require equal upgrade materials).
| Level | Defense | Materials |
| 1 Star | 4 | 3x Ice Fruit, 10x Rupees |
| 2 Star | 6 | 5x Ice-Breath Lizalfos Horns, 5x Winterwing Butterflies, 50x Rupees |
| 3 Star | 9 | 5x Ice-Like Stones, 5 Cold Darners, 5x Large Zonai Charges, 200x Rupees |
| 4 Star | 16 | 5x Frost Gleeo Horns, 10x Chillfin Trout, 10x Large Zonai Charges, 500x rupees |
If you upgrade all Frostbite Armor set pieces to 2 Stars in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and equip them all, you will get a new charged attack. Upon charging your weapon (hold the Y button) and then releasing it, Link will summon ice blocks around him that deal Frost damage to enemies.
