The Cap of the Hero is an item in Breath of the Wild.[1]

Location and Uses[]

The Cap of the Hero is a piece of Armor which can be obtained using the amiibo Rune while scanning the 30th Anniversary 8-Bit Link Amiibo. Each time the figure is scanned, a chest will appear that has a small chance to contain the Cap of the Hero. It can be enhanced by a Great Fairy but cannot be dyed at the Kochi Dye Shop.

The Cap of the Hero, alongside the Tunic of the Hero and Trousers of the Hero, comprise the Hero Set which resembles Link's outfit from the original Legend of Zelda. When it has been enhaced by two levels, it provides the Master Sword Beam Up Set Bonus when worn with the full set.
