The Tunic of the Hero can be found in the middle of the Dueling Canyons Mine. The closest Chasm to the treasure is the East Hill Chasm.

The East Hill Chasm can be found northeast of the Ring Ruins, north of the Kakariko Village in West Necluda. Once you land in the Depths, make your way to the southwest to activate the Arusakam Lightroot.

The?Arusakam Lightroot is southwest of the East Hill Chasm and just north of the?Abandoned Kakariko Mines.?Be careful not to fall to the Mine without having lit up the lightroot or else it will be quite the hassle climbing back up.

Arusakam Lightroot coordinates: 1770, -1053, -0608.

If you do fall without the aid of light, try using Brightbloom seeds to get to the nearest climbable tree and paraglide from the tree to the wall. Keep heading southwest until you reach the Sohse Lighroot, which is the closest one to the Dueling Canyons Mine.

Sohse Lightroot coordinates: 1565, -1947, -0464.

After activating the Sohse Lightroot, drop into the canyon below and make your way directly to the west. You will see your location pop up on your screen when you arrive at the Dueling Canyons Mine.

When you do, start looking around for a small stone structure with a roof on top of it. There, sitting in the middle of the stone monument, will be the chest containing the Tunic of the Hero.
