It’s both stressful and costly not to have the right armor for every situation in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. While it’s not quite as good as the Cold Armor, which is almost mandatory to overcome the challenges of the Hebra region, the Heat Armor is still a serious comfort gain. Since temperatures tend to fluctuate between the two extremes in the region, it’s better to have a few pieces of armor to swap out, rather than eating every time.
How to get the heat resistant outfit?
You’ll have to brave the heat without his help for a while. Indeed, the first available piece is sold at the oasis in the middle of the desert, halfway to the main city. The rest of the set is sold in the Gerudo capital, in a secret shop that is difficult to access. We’ll explain how to reach it in this guide, so plan on having enough Rubies to buy it. In the meantime, use anti-heat food, walk in the shade, or explore at night.
Helmet – Sand ornament
- Price: 450 Rubies
- 3 Defense
- Anti-heat 1
The helmet of the set is simply on a display stand, at the edge of the Gerudo oasis. You can find it at coordinates -3274, -2550, 0023. The saleswoman will also give you some clues on the position of the other two pieces of the set. If that makes you feel better, Usually only one piece is needed to be protected from the heat level encountered in most Gerudo.
How to reach the secret Gerudo club?
This not-so-secret shop is located in the Gerudo capital. You first have to reach the city, which requires crossing the sand fog and braving the hordes of strange monsters. The easiest way is to use one of the rising wind columns at the entrance to the area, then use the Parasail to get closer to the city. Using a Scouting Tower also works, if you have enough Stamina.
Once in town, your troubles are not over, as the streets are deserted. The club’s entrance is at coordinates -3782, -2938, 0043, but the store’s residents have barricaded themselves inside, and since Link can’t speak, you’ll have to find another entrance. Note the club’s position on the map, as it will be useful later.
Go to the main square of Gerudo City. Jump into the rectangular well-like thing to the left of the area at coordinates -3824, -2949, 0043, which will drop you into an underground river.
Head down the river, then take the first passage on the right, then right again. Go to the end of the narrow gallery. As you probably guessed, the objective is to position yourself right under the private club, then enter using Infiltration.
Check the map to make sure you are below the shop. Turning left in the last gallery will take you to the right place. If in doubt, use Infiltration. If you do not appear inside the shop, cancel the skill and start again after adjusting your position.
Once in the shop, the saleswoman will be surprised, but she will let you shop freely. There is not only the rest of the Sablons outfit to buy. You will also be able to clear the door, so as not to have to go through the underground each time.

How to improve the outfit to max level?
As in Zelda Breath of the Wild, you will need to have access to the 4 great fairies if you want to upgrade your equipment to the maximum. To do this, you will need to complete a series of essential side quests which starts at the forest relayafter which they will offer you their services in exchange for components. This is why you should always be careful to save some precious resources.
The bonus activates when all 3 pieces of the set are upgraded to level 2, and you wear them all at the same time. It gives a bonus resistance to electrical damage.
