How do I upgrade my Dark Link set?

Unfortunately, you cannot upgrade your Dark Link set as it is purchased from Kilton’s shop, and items from this shop are not upgradable due to arbitrary reasons, making the Dark Set left unable to upgrade as an unfortunate byproduct. This means that despite its unique Night Speed Up bonus and intimidating appearance, the Dark Link armor set remains at its base level, without the option for enhancement through Great Fairies or other means.

Understanding the Dark Link Set and Its Limitations

The Dark Link set, comprising the Dark Tunic, Dark Hood, and Dark Trousers, offers a distinctive look and the Night Speed Up ability, but its inability to be upgraded puts it at a disadvantage compared to other armor sets in the game.

Upgrading Armor in General

To upgrade armor in Zelda: Breath of the Wild and similar games like Tears of the Kingdom, players typically need to find a Great Fairy Fountain, pay a rupee fee, and possess the necessary materials. This process allows for significant improvements in armor stats, making them more valuable for progression and combat.
