Utsushok Shrine

Maren's Tip

Remember — if a shrine gives Rauru's Blessing with no puzzle inside, the real challenge was reaching the entrance. Check the surrounding area!

Walkthrough

1. Step 1: Enter Utsushok Shrine on a Sky Island in the sky region.
2. The theme is Long or Wide — rotating an L-shaped beam to match three differently shaped openings.
3. This is a pure Ultrahand precision test with no combat and no other abilities required.
4. The L-shaped beam is massive (about 4 meters on the long arm, 2 meters on the short arm) and must be guided through each opening without clipping the edges.
5. Step 2: Approach Opening 1, which is tall and narrow — approximately 1.5 meters wide and 5 meters tall.
6. Grab the L-beam with Ultrahand and rotate it so the long arm points straight up and the short arm extends horizontally at the bottom.
7. In this vertical orientation, the beam's narrowest profile faces the opening.
8. Push it through slowly and deliberately.
9. If any corner touches the opening's edge, the beam bounces back and you must reposition.
10. Step 3: In the corridor between Opening 1 and Opening 2, a chest sits in an alcove on the right wall.
11. It contains a Topaz (worth 180 rupees).
12. Collect it before continuing — once the beam is through Opening 2, you cannot easily backtrack.
13. Step 4: Opening 2 is wide and low — approximately 5 meters wide but only 2 meters tall.
14. Rotate the L-beam 90 degrees from its previous orientation.
15. The long arm should now extend horizontally (left to right) and the short arm should point to the side.
16. The beam's profile is now wide but short, matching the squat opening.
17. Push it through with even, steady pressure.
18. Rushing causes the beam to tilt and clip the top of the opening.
19. Step 5: Opening 3 is the final and most challenging — a diagonal slot cut through the wall at approximately 45 degrees.
20. Neither the vertical orientation (Opening 1) nor the horizontal orientation (Opening 2) will fit.
21. You must tilt the L-beam to a precise 45-degree angle.
22. Use Ultrahand's tilt control (not the rotation control) to angle the beam.
23. The long arm should point to the upper-right at 45 degrees, with the short arm extending lower-left.
24. Step 6: Ease the beam through the diagonal slot with tiny, incremental forward nudges.
25. The tolerance is extremely tight — the beam's arms must align within about 10 degrees of the slot's angle.
26. If the beam jams (it stops and you hear a thud), pull it back with Ultrahand, adjust the tilt by 2-3 degrees, and try again.
27. Most players need three to four attempts to nail the exact angle.
28. Step 7: Once through Opening 3, the altar room opens before you.
29. Claim the Light of Blessing.
30. Abilities needed: Ultrahand (all rotations and positioning).
31. Pro tip: The 45-degree angle for Opening 3 is not exact — it is actually about 42 degrees.
32. If you set it to a visually perfect 45-degree angle and it jams, try tilting it slightly less.
33. The wall slot was cut at a slightly off-angle as a deliberate design trick.
