Sheik's Mask

Sheik's Mask is a returning piece of Armor in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and though it was an Amiibo-exclusive item in Breath of the Wild, Sheik's Mask can now be picked up by anyone that knows its obscure location. This stealth-improving headgear does not have a matching set, and while it cannot be dyed, it can be upgraded.

In this Tears of the Kingdom guide, you'll learn where to find the Sheik's Mask and get details on this item's base stats and potential upgrades.

Sheik's Mask can also be found in the far southwestern corner of The Depths, within a corrupted chest that sits at the center of the Desert Coliseum. If you're an experienced Depths explorer that's previously activated the Kasari Lightroot, fast-travel to this Lightroot and the Desert Coliseum will be just a few steps to the west.

If you haven't done much underground exploration, launch yourself from the Gerudo Canyon Skyview Tower, then head south to reach the East Gerudo Chasm. Before jumping into the East Gerudo Chasm, be aware that you'll be diving straight into a Frox's den, so equip your best weapons or be prepared to outrun the beast. Once the Frok has been dealt with, head south and activate the Amakawis Lightroot to update your Depths map.

From the Amakawis Lightroot, trek southwest until you reach the Gataharak Lightroot. Activate the Lighroot to make it a valid fast-travel point and update your map, then continue marching west. Soon, you'll discover the Gerudo Underground Cemetary.

When you reach the cemetery, head southwest and activate the Kasari Lightroot to reveal the area surrounding the Desert Coliseum and Sheik's Mask.

After activating the Kasari Lightroot, look west to spot the Desert Coliseum just a few steps away. Head to the coliseum's northern entrance, and inside you'll find the corrupted chest housing Sheik's Mask. When you approach the chest, the coliseum door will close behind you, and you'll be tasked with defeating five waves of increasingly powerful Horriblins.

Once all the Horriblins have been defeated, the chest will be cleansed, and you can now open it to claim Sheik's Mask!
