Upgrading the armor will also upgrade the climbing buff.

The Stealth Armor set is bought in the Armor Shop ‘Enchanted’, run by Claree in Kakariko Village. The armor offers increased stealth as well as increased speed at night. This is a great set for the stealthy player, but the set is the weakest enhanceable armor set so you’ll be sacrificing on defense stats. But that is quite typical for stealthy armor in RPGs anyway!

The iconic Champion’s Tunic is not a part of a set therefore it doesn’t give any set bonuses, but that doesn’t mean that the tunic on its own isn’t great! It offers high defense, especially after being upgraded, and it also offers the unique bonus of displaying the HP of enemies when worn.
