Description
The distinctive red-and-white mask worn by Yiga Clan footsoldiers — a symbol of their fanatical devotion to Ganondorf and hatred of Link. Wearing this mask while approaching Yiga Clan enemies causes them to initially mistake Link for a fellow member, delaying aggression. Part of the Yiga Set — full set provides Yiga Clan Disguise, causing all Yiga Clan members to interact peacefully as long as Link does not attack. This allows access to Yiga Clan strongholds without combat, triggering unique dialogue and revealing hidden rooms. Upgrade at any Great Fairy Fountain using Bokoblin and Moblin parts. Tier 1 requires 5x Bokoblin Horn + 3x Bubbul Gem; Tier 2 requires 5x Moblin Horn + 5x Bubbul Gem; Tier 3 requires 5x Lizalfos Horn + 8x Bubbul Gem; Tier 4 requires 3x Lynel Horn + 12x Bubbul Gem. Secret: wearing the mask near Master Kohga triggers special boss dialogue.

Yiga Set - Yiga Clan Disguise
Yiga Set
The full uniform of the Yiga Clan — Ganondorf's fanatical human cult bent on hunting down Link across Hyrule and the Depths. Wearing the complete Yiga Set grants a disguise effect that prevents Yiga Clan members from recognizing Link as their enemy. Footsoldiers and Blademasters will ignore Link, allowing passage through Yiga-patrolled areas without triggering combat. The disguise breaks the moment Link takes any hostile action. The mask, top, and tights are all required for the disguise effect — a partial set provides no deception benefit. A niche but extremely useful set for Yiga Clan Hideout infiltration and overworld ambush avoidance.
Set Bonus: Yiga Clan Disguise
When the full three-piece set is worn, Yiga Clan members will not attack Link on sight. The disguise allows passage through Yiga Clan patrols and strongholds undetected. Breaks instantly on any hostile action.
How to Obtain
All three pieces (Yiga Mask, Yiga Armor, Yiga Tights) are found in Yiga Clan training challenge rooms in the Depths. Multiple Yiga strongholds hidden in the Depths contain the training rooms — look for the Yiga Clan banners and red-lit cave entrances throughout the Depths.
