Utsushok Shrine Location

Utushok Shrine is a surface shrine located east of the Fural Plain in the Faron Region. The easiest way to get to Utsushok Shrine is to paraglide directly south from Popla Foothills Skyview Tower - it's visible in the distance once Link has been catapulted up. The Faron region is known for lightning and rain, so be sure to pack Sticky Elixirs and unequip any metal items.

Utsushok Shrine: First Puzzle Solution

Utushok Shrine is another ball-based shrine. The first puzzle is relatively simple - the player should activate the Ultrahand ability on the swinging device facing the ball, pull it back as far as it will go, and then deactivate Ultrahand. This will knock the swinging device into the ball and push it into the hole, similar to a golf club hitting a ball.

Once the ball is in the hole, the door on the left will open for Link to walk through to the next puzzle.

Utsushok Shrine: Second Puzzle Solution

The second puzzle builds on the mechanic of the first puzzle, but players will find that the swinging device is too light to properly propel the ball forward. On the right of the player, as they walk in, there should be a large metal block. Activate Ultrahand on the block, and then attach it to the swinging device as pictured. Pulling back and releasing will now propel the ball forward into the hole, unlocking the door to the final stage.

The final stage of the shrine is split into two parts: unlocking the minecart and then activating it. To unlock the minecart, players should activate Ultrahand on the plank next to the swinging device, then rotate the plank longways so that it extends the reach of the swinging device. Then it's more of the same pulling back and releasing, which will unlock the minecart.

Using Ultrahand, players will need to detach the plank and use it as a ramp to climb up to the minecart. Then, with the same plank, use Ultrahand to rotate it lengthways so that it will hit the minecart when pulled and released. The treasure chest is in this section (see below), so players should pay close attention when riding the minecart to the end. There, the player can receive the Light of Blessing and complete the shrine.

Utsushok Shrine Treasure Chest Location

The Treasure Chest in Utsushok Shrine is at the very end in the minecart section. Players will need to be quick with Ultrahand to grab the chest on a ledge along the path of the minecart - inside it is a Sneaky Elixir.
