Misko’s Treasure side quest will have you trekking all over Hyrule.

To get your hands on the Fierce Deity armor set in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you need to start Misko’s Treasure: The Fierce Deity side quest. The first objective is to hunt for Armor. 

You’ll need to head over to Cephla Lake Cave, which is located in the west of Cephla Lake. It’s here where you’ll see a campfire close to the cave’s entrance. We recommend teleporting to the Kisinona Shrine and heading north. 

At the cave’s entrance, you’ll encounter Prissen and Dak, two treasure seekers who are on the lookout for Misko’s Treasure. The cave houses decoy treasure chests, that will reward you with a few Rupees, but if you feed Prissen and Dak’s canine companion, it will it will lead you to a chest.

Upon opening the treasure chest, you will receive the Ember Trousers. This will also kickstart Misko’s Treasure: The Fierce Deity side quest.

To locate the Fierce Deity Armor piece, navigate toward the Akkala Citadel Ruins. The quickest way to reach there is by teleporting to the Domizuin Shrine.

Your target is a chamber mentioned in Misko’s letter, located in the southwest area of the ruins. Keep your eyes peeled for a gap in the wall, which you’ll need to crawl through.

Once you’ve made your way through the crawlspace, you’ll then see a hole that Link can drop into. At the bottom of the hole, you find the Fierce Deity Armor chest piece.
