We all love to customize the way our characters look in games, and while The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom doesn’t possess a fully customizable Link, it does provide you with an opportunity to change the color of some of his armor. You can also dye your paraglider, giving you a sleek new look as you glide around Hyrule’s skies. If you want to change up Link’s style, make sure to read on for where you need to go to dye your armor and paraglider.

How to dye your armor

The first step to dying your armor is heading over to Hateno Village, which you may remember was an important spot in Breath of the Wild too. When you arrive in Hateno Village, seek out the Kochi Dye Shop. Inside, you can speak to an NPC known as Sayge – you can’t miss him, as he’s an interesting-looking fellow in a strange hat with bottles of dye on his belt.

Sayge will allow you to dye your armor or paraglider, though it’s worth noting that there are a few unique pieces of gear that can’t be dyed. Each dye job requires 20 rupees and a selection of materials that you’ll have found (or will need to find) across Hyrule. You can see a preview of what you’ll look like with the new dye, so you can decide if it’s really the vibe you’re going for. And if you decide to change up your paraglider, Sayge will even shoot you out of a cannon so you can glide around a bit and see how you like it. What a nice guy!

The best Zelda games, ranked from best to worst

Link with the Master Sword in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

The Legend of Zelda series is one of the most iconic video game franchises of all time. Ever since its debut on NES in 1986, Nintendo has consistently delivered awe-inspiring experiences that often define entire console generations. More than a handful of Link's adventures are among the greatest games ever created.

That makes ranking The Legend of Zelda series a challenging endeavor, as it was for all the Mario games. We did just that, though -- from the 8-bit era all the way to the high-definition open-world game Breath of the Wild (and its sequel Tears of the Kingdom). Our journey through the history of The Legend of Zelda starts now.

All outfits in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and how to unlock them

Somewhat like Peach in Princess Peach: Showtime!, Zelda has access to a ton of different outfits in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. While they won't drastically change how she plays like her Swordfighter form does, they do give her a fresh new style and occasionally a nice buff of some sort. When you combine these with accessories and smoothies, you can do some fairly deep build crafting in this game. These new outfits can't be picked up off the rack at Hyrule's local market, though. Zelda will need to work for most of them, and there are plenty you can easily miss if you don't go out of your way to find them. Here are all the outfits you can get in Echoes of Wisdom, how to unlock them, and what buffs they grant (if any).
Every outfit in Echoes of Wisdom
There are a total of 11 outfits to find and try on in Echoes of Wisdom. Some are given as part of the main story, but most are optional.

Zelda makes a mixed smoothie in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.

Adventuring through Hyrule and the Still World is a tough job in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, but our heroic princess is up to the task. She's armed with the power of Echoes, various accessories, and even outfits to give her an advantage over the various mobs and hazards in the world. But one new trick Zelda has access to that will make her adventure much easier (and more delicious) is smoothies. These consumable items offer dozens of benefits, from health recovery to temporary stat increases. You'll be collecting ingredients by the handful while exploring that you can give to the Business Scrub to whip up into a powerful drink. The only question becomes which ones are the best that you should spend your precious inventory slots to carry with you. Let's explore the best smoothies in Echoes of Wisdom, what they do, and how to make them.

Each smoothie must be made at one of the various Business Scrub stands in exchange for two ingredients and 10 Rupees. There are a total of 69 different recipes to test out, which is way too many to keep in your head to remember the best ones. However, you should still make each smoothie at least once if you want to get 10 Golden Eggs easily.
