The Spider Lily Mask is an evocative and haunting piece of vanity gear in Ghost of Yōtei, known for its deep connection to the tragic lore of the Spider Lily Armor set. The description—"A general’s curse embraces another who grieves”—underscores its role as a powerful cosmetic symbol of sorrow and legacy.

The Spider Lily Mask: Guide and Lore in Ghost of Yōtei

🧠 What Is the Spider Lily Mask?

The Spider Lily Mask is a Mask-type headgear that is part of the overall Spider Lily set. In Ghost of Yōtei, headgear and masks are primarily cosmetic and do not provide unique perks on their own, but they are crucial for completing the aesthetic and activating set bonuses when paired with their matching body armor.
  • Type: Mask (Vanity Item)
  • Aesthetic: Somber, tragic, and elegant, reflecting the tale of the Spider Lily General.
  • Set Synergy: When worn with the Spider Lily Armor, it can unlock an extra set bonus, further enhancing the armor's core stagger and crowd control perks.

🛠️ How to Unlock the Spider Lily Mask

The Spider Lily Mask is not acquired by upgrading the main body armor set. The mask (or in this case, the matching headgear, often referred to as the Spider Lily Headband in early acquisition guides) is typically obtained directly upon completion of the Mythic Tale that grants the armor set.

The main body armor, the Spider Lily Armor, is the item that is upgraded by Ginji the Armorer.

Step 1: Obtain the Spider Lily Armor Set (The Main Requirement)

To ensure you have the full set, first complete the dedicated side quest:

  • Start the Quest: Begin the Mythic Tale: The Spider Lily General. This quest is located in the Tokachi Range, by entering the Mysterious Gate south of Shizunai Woods.
  • Explore the Estate: Navigate the Abandoned Tominaga Estate, collecting four keys to unlock the main gate (one key is found bysolving a small puzzle in the bamboo maze where you follow the trail ofred spider lilies).
  • Defeat the Boss: Confront and defeat The Spider Lily General in a duel.
  • Claim the Reward: Upon completing the duel and the Mythic Tale, you will be rewarded with the Spider Lily Armor and its matching headgear, which is often the Spider Lily Mask/Headband.

Step 2: Utilize Ginji the Armorer (For Armor Upgrades Only)

While Ginji the Armorer does not unlock the mask itself, you will need to visit him to fully power up the accompanying Spider Lily Armor and make use of the full set bonus.

  • Location: Ginji the Armorer can be found at most major Inns and Villages, such as the Old Inn (Yotei's Shadow Inn in the Grasslands).
  • Upgrade Purpose: Ginji uses resources to improve the core perks of the body armor (increased melee stagger damage, higher chance for throwable drops, etc.).
Upgrade LevelCost at Ginji the ArmorerPurpose
Level II650 CoinIncreases chance for throwable weapons drop.
Level III1,100 Coin, 10 Textiles, 25 MetalsIncreases melee stagger damage.
Level IV2,000 Coin, 20 Textiles, 10 Rare MetalsIncreases chance for Stagger shockwave to nearby enemies.

Once you have the full set (the armor and the mask/headgear) and have upgraded the armor, the combined effect of the Spider Lily Mask and Spider Lily Armor will provide the optimal performance for an aggressive, crowd-controlling playstyle.
