Which armor should I upgrade in BOTW?

You should upgrade armor based on your needs: prioritize Ancient Armor for Guardian fights (damage boost/protection), Snowquill for cold, Desert Voe/Gerudo Vai for heat/shock, Climbing Gear for mobility, and the Stealth Set for sneaking; for general combat, the Barbarian Set (attack boost) or Soldier's Set (high defense) are great choices. Start with easily found sets like Hylian for early defense, then work towards situational or powerful sets as you unlock more Great Fairies.

What is the best armor in BotW?

The "best" armor in Breath of the Wild depends on your playstyle, but the Ancient Armor Set is generally top-tier for combat (massive Guardian buffs and resistance), while the Barbarian Set excels for pure attack power, and the Sheikah Stealth Set is crucial for sneaking, with the Champion's Tunic offering the highest single-piece defense. For general defense and exploration, upgrading environmental sets (like Snowquill for cold) is vital, but the Ancient Set offers unmatched utility and damage.

What is the rarest armor set in BotW?

The rarest armor in Breath of the Wild isn't one single item, but often debated between the Phantom Ganon Set (found in dangerous caves/shrines) and DLC armors like Tingle's Outfit, with some considering amiibo-exclusive pieces as rarest due to their conditional unlock, but the Hero's Aspect (from Tears of the Kingdom) is mentioned as rarest there for completing all 152 shrines. For base game items, hard-to-find pieces like the Rito Kite Shield or unique outfits (Zant's Helmet, Ravio's Hood) found through quests or Kilton's shop (like the Dark Link outfit) are very rare and sought after.

What is the best armor to fight Ganon in Breath of the Wild?

For the Ganon fight in Breath of the Wild, the Ancient Armor set is generally considered the best due to its "Ancient Proficiency" bonus (boosting ancient weapon damage) and Guardian Resist, significantly increasing your damage and defense against Ganon's attacks; however, the Barbarian Armor (for raw attack) or high-defense sets like Soldier's Armor, often mixed with the Champion's Tunic, are also strong choices, especially with attack-buff food. The best armor depends on your playstyle: Ancient for guardian synergy, Barbarian for pure offense, or max defense for tanking.

Does BOTW have Yiga Armor?
