Armor

are pieces of BotW: and protective covering that BotW: can wear in. Each piece of BotW: has a numeric rating that contributes to BotW:'s overall Defense. The higher BotW:'s Defense, the less damage he will take from BotW: attacks.

Location and Uses
BotW: serves a variety of purposes, primarily to provide BotW: with defensive padding, allowing him to endure more damage. Damage numbers are shown numerically in. Each number of damage normally deals a quarter of a BotW: to BotW:. For example, an attack with a power of 4 will damage BotW: by one full BotW:. By wearing BotW:, BotW: can decrease the amount of damage he takes. Wearing BotW: subtracts the attack's strength value by BotW:'s total defense value. Wearing BotW: totaling a defense level of three or higher will reduce that attack's damage to a quarter of a BotW:, and no matter his defense, BotW: takes at least a quarter of a BotW: of damage from any attack.

Certain pieces of BotW: can also boost BotW:'s attack, boost his movement speed on BotW:, BotW:, BotW: or while BotW:, boost his stealth capabilities, or protect him from the environment. Environmental hazards include BotW:, BotW:, heat, BotW:, and the cold. Most clothing can be enhanced up to four times by the revived NaN Great Fairies, with the number of available upgrades dependent on how many NaN Great Fairies have been restored. Each upgrade comes with a certain cost of NaN Materials.

If BotW: has no armor on, some characters will pass comment.

Extra pieces of BotW: were added in the Expansion Pass DLC, and some pieces can also be gained by scanning certain Amiibo on the Wii U and Nintendo Switch consoles.

Armor Sets
Upgrading all the pieces of a particular BotW: set to level 2 and wearing them all at the same time confers an additional bonus effect. As the BotW:' and BotW: pieces introduced with BotW: and ''BotW: cannot be upgraded, these sets simply confer the bonus when worn together without any need to first upgrade them. The BotW:, BotW:, and BotW:''' lack a Set Bonus of any kind.
