The Iki Island expansion in Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut unlocks unique cosmetic items for players in the game. Players will have to locate three puzzles among three Wind Shrines in Ghost of Tsushima’s Iki Island DLC. Players will be rewarded with special armor pieces after solving these puzzles. All these rewards refer to other PlayStation-exclusive games. The Blood-Stained Shrine puzzle needs to be solved to earn the Bloodborne armor pieces in Ghost of Tsushima.

In the game, these pieces are known as the Yharnam Helm and Vestments. Unlocking the armor isn’t as easy as it sounds, but we are here to help you with that.

How to Locate the Blood-Stained Shrine in Ghost of Tsushima

At first, players will have to locate the Blood-Stained Shrine, which is positioned at Gonoura Cape on the west side of Iki Island in Ghost of Tsushima. Gonoura Cape is a distinct location on Iki Island and can be recognized by the presence of numerous hot springs.

Players will be able to find the Blood-Stained Shrine in the southwest of Kidafure’s Battlefield, just north of the “Co” portion of the Conoura Cape map label. An in-game clue is provided at the shrine, which reads: Players will be able to find the location on the in-game map. After reaching this location, players will be able to find a large statue and a scroll.

Players will have to follow these guidelines to solve the Blood-Stained Shrine puzzle. Only after solving this puzzle will they be able to get the exclusive Bloodborne armor pieces. First and foremost, players will have to start by equipping the Kensei Armor in Ghost of Tsushima. To earn the Kensei Armor, players will have to complete the Six Blades of Kojiro Mythic Tale. This Mythic Tale quest can be started by speaking with the musician Yamato at Umugi Cove.

This cove is located in the southwest corner of Toyotama, and over here, players will have to complete the objective by defeating five Straw Hats.

How to Get the Yharnam Helm and Vestments in Ghost of Tsushima

The Kensei Armor is one of the best armor sets in the game. You need to equip yourself with this armor and then jump from the high rocks that surround the Blood-Stained Shrine. By doing this, you will take some damage.

After taking damage, you will have to go to the Shrine and press down on the D-Pad. This will allow you to heal, and once the healing is done, a short cutscene will be played.

In this scene, Jin Sakai is surrounded by a flock of crows, and players will receive the Yharnam Helm and Yharnam Vestments at the end of the scene.

You should remember that the Yharnam Helm is a unique item that can be equipped and removed at will. The Yharnam Vestments, on the other hand, are a variant style of the Kensei Armor. So, Ghost of Tsushima allows players to toggle the Vestments on and off by pressing left and right on the D-Pad.

This can be done after the relevant armor has been selected in the Outfits menu.
