Step-by-step solution
Kudanisar Shrine is the Gerudo Desert in miniature: sand that moves under you, and wooden panels that only become a path once you join them.
1. Crossing the Sand Pit
First crossing: attach the loose wooden panel to one drifting through the sand, and cross. Hop aboard the panels passing in front of you to recover stamina on the way.
On the platform, take that bridge and lay it over the fence as a ramp to the far side.
2. Launching the Stone Sphere
A Soldier Construct hides behind a standing panel — a bomb-flower arrow solves it. Ride the drifting panels onward.
Climb the ladder to the top platform and stand on the trigger: it launches a stone sphere far off across the shrine.
3. Building the Fan Boat and Collecting Chests
Glide down to the area with Zonai fans and boats. Build a three-panel bridge and lay it above the staircase to the closed altar — you will need it later.
Boat: attach a Zonai fan to a boat’s back and sail left. Chest 1: cut the rope holding the chest, grab it with Ultrahand: Arrow ×10.
Chest 2: sail to the raised platform, stand a wooden panel upright against the one you are on, and climb: Hasty Elixir.
4. Ascending to Fight Constructs
Sail to the platform with Soldier Constructs above, Ascend from directly underneath, and clear them.
5. Delivering the Sphere to the Altar
Find the stone sphere you launched, attach it to a boat, and trigger the gate.
Sail to your three-panel ramp, detach the sphere and drop it into the bowl — the altar gate opens. Take the Light of Blessing.
Chests
| Chest | Contents | How |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Arrow ×10 | Cut the rope from the boat, grab the chest |
| 2 | Hasty Elixir | Upright panel as a ladder on the raised platform |
