Located in the Eldin Canyon area of the map, the Marakuguc Shrine requires players to use wheels in order to propel themselves toward the finish line. Initially, it’s all fairly straightforward, but toward the end of the shrine,The Legends of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomplayers may find themselves needing a clue or two to help steer them in the right direction.
Marakuguc Shrine Location
Players will be able to find the Marakuguc Shrine in the Eldin Canyon area. It effectively serves as the fast travel point for Goron City, which is to the north ofthe Eldin Canyon Skyview Towerand to the west of Death Mountain. There’s actually a path leading straight to Goron City from the south, but for anyone struggling to find it or approaching from another direction, the coordinates for the Marakuguc Shrine are 1763, 2511, 0436.
Marakuguc Shrine Walkthrough
To get through the first section of the Marakuguc Shrine, players will simply need to useLink’s Ultrahand abilityto repair the broken bridge by grabbing the section that can be seen down beneath them and then attaching it to the one on the other side of the gap. Once across, they should attach the end of the second bridge onto the back of the wheeled platform and then activate one of the wheels by hitting it with an arrow or melee attack.
After crossing the newly created bridge, players will want to attach the two platforms together to create a larger platform with four wheels and then ride it across the lava to the other side. Once they’ve defeated the Solider Construct, players will be able to use the large piece of metal to create a ramp up to the chest on the pillar in the corner. If it’s too steep to climb, players can always useLink’s Ascend abilityto reach the flat part at the top, at which point, they can open the chest to get aStrong Construct Bow.
Upon claiming the bow, players should attach the large piece of metal to the nearby four-wheeled platform and then activate the platform by hitting one of the wheels with a melee attack. This will cause it to drive forward, pushing many of the balls into the hole on the other side of the rails. When enough balls have fallen in, the gate on the far side of the room will open, allowing players to complete the Marakuguc Shrine. If needed, players can use Ultrahand to move any remaining balls into the hole, or simply pick them up and throw them.
