Breath Of The Wild Royal Guard Armor

Hey, you! Zelda fanatic, right? Let's talk about something seriously cool: the Royal Guard Armor in Breath of the Wild. Forget that rusty pot lid you've been rocking; we're about to get fancy.
This armor set isn't just for show, though it totally looks amazing. Think sleek black with crimson accents – very "Hyrule's Next Top Model" meets "Warrior Prince." It’s the kind of armor that makes Bokoblins think twice before messing with you. And let's be honest, who doesn't want that?
What's the Big Deal?
Okay, so beyond looking like you're ready to attend a royal gala (after, you know, saving Hyrule), the Royal Guard Armor has a special perk. Each piece of the set – tunic, boots, and cap – boosts your attack power while you’re using a charged attack. We're talking Spin Attacks with swords, charged shots with bows, and generally making things explode in a stylish, coordinated manner.
Must Read
Basically, if you love holding down that attack button and watching Link unleash his inner whirlwind of destruction, this armor is your new best friend. Imagine: You charge up a mighty blow, the enemies brace for impact, and BAM! You're dealing out some serious pain. It’s incredibly satisfying. (And might make you feel a little bit like a superhero. Just sayin’.)
Where Do I Find This Swanky Gear?
Alright, this is where things get a little spooky… and very dusty. The Royal Guard Armor isn't just lying around, waiting for you to trip over it. You'll have to explore Hyrule Castle. Yes, THAT Hyrule Castle. The one crawling with Guardians, corrupted malice, and the general feeling of impending doom. (Don't worry, you got this!)

Each piece of the armor is hidden in a different location within the castle:
- Royal Guard Cap: Guard's Chamber
- Royal Guard Uniform: Dining Hall
- Royal Guard Boots: Training Ground
Trust me, you'll need your wits about you. These locations are often swarming with enemies, and navigating the castle can be a maze. My advice? Stock up on health potions, grab your best weapons, and maybe bring a friend (or at least watch a YouTube tutorial. No shame in that game!).
Upgrade Time!
Now, here's the catch. The Royal Guard Armor isn't exactly known for its defense. It's powerful, sure, but you’ll feel like a glass cannon early on. That's why upgrading is crucial. You’ll want to visit one of the Great Fairy Fountains scattered across Hyrule. They can reinforce your armor, making you much more resilient to those pesky Guardian beams and Bokoblin clubs.

You'll need specific materials for each upgrade, so be prepared to hunt down critters, smash some rocks, and maybe even defeat a Lynel or two. (Okay, maybe start with the critters. Baby steps!) Check your armor inventory, scroll to the piece of Royal Guard armor, and it will give you the required item to upgrade the armor.
The Royal Guard Armor Set Bonus
Remember that extra perk I mentioned? That's the Set Bonus, and it's a good one. With all three pieces of the Royal Guard Armor equipped and upgraded twice by a Great Fairy, you'll get the Charge Attack Stamina Up bonus.

This means you’ll consume less stamina when charging your attacks. More Spin Attacks, longer charged bow shots, and ultimately, more enemies obliterated with style! It's the gift that keeps on giving (especially to those who like smashing things).
Is It Worth It?
Absolutely! The Royal Guard Armor is a fantastic set for players who enjoy aggressive combat and dealing massive damage. Yes, it takes some effort to acquire and upgrade, but the reward is well worth the journey. Plus, you’ll look incredibly cool while doing it.
So, what are you waiting for? Go forth, brave adventurer! Conquer Hyrule Castle, claim your Royal Guard Armor, and unleash your inner whirlwind of destruction! And remember, even if you get blasted by a Guardian beam along the way, at least you'll look good doing it. Happy hunting!
