Shrines are one of the core gameplay elements in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Scattered throughout Hyrule, shrines typically require you to solve some sort of puzzle or combat trial, upon the completion of which you’ll be rewarded with a Light of Blessing and potentially equipment. Shrines can also serve as fast travel points - all you have to do is interact with them. Since completing shrines will make your character stronger and provide exploration footholds, it’s essential that you conquer them whenever possible. This page will provide a walkthrough for Utsushok Shrine,
Where to find Utsushok Shrine in TotK¶
You can attempt any of the 152 shrines at any point throughout your adventure in Hyrule. However, some shrines are located in areas which require you to equip specific types of armor or eat certain foods in order to combat the extreme temperatures. This isn’t something you need to worry about for this shrine, so you’ll want to fast travel to the Popla Foothills Skyview Tower and glide south until you reach the Guchini Plain area. Here you’ll find the Utsushok Shrine entrance sitting on the cliff-edge.
How to Complete the Utsushok Shrine in Tears of the Kingdom¶
When you enter the Utsushok Shrine you’ll notice that the objective of this shrine is focused around using the Ultrahand ability and pushing balls into holes, so in the first room you’ll want to grab the slab that is located behind the ball with Ultrahand and raise it all the way up before letting go, then it’ll push the ball into the hole if you have enough force. Once the ball has successfully landed into the hole, the nearby door will open.
Proceed into the next room and you’ll notice that things are getting slightly trickier because the rail is on an incline, so you’ll want to grab the cube and attach it to the back of the slab, then lift it all the way up again in order to push the ball with enough force to reach the hole. Make your way into the third and final room and grab the slab from the floor and attach it to the bottom of the other slab, then push the ball into the hole to release a cart.
Unfortunately, there is no way to power the cart, so you may be wondering how you get across to the other side. Simply detach the slab from the bottom and reattach it to the side, then raise the slab as far up as it’ll go and wait for the cart to reach the other side. Now you’ll want to use Recall and wait for the cart to return to your location, then jump inside and let go and you’ll be taken across to the altar. Finally, interact with the altar and claim your Light of Blessing.
