Step-by-step solution

Zanmik Shrine is a build-a-machine puzzle with a manual override, and the real prize is buried under the very balls you are moving.

1. Build the Scoop Mechanism

Glide down to the lower level — metal panels lie on the floor.

Join the panels into a scoop with Ultrahand and attach it to the wheel.

The floor circuit by the wheel is incomplete: drop one spare metal panel into the gap. The wheel turns and starts lifting balls out of the pit.

2. Get the Treasure Chest

If the scoop misses: stick a ball straight onto a panel with Ultrahand and raise it yourself. One ball is enough; two is a handy spare.

Chest: clear enough balls to expose the left side of the pit — a chest appears. Fish it out: Strong Zonaite Longsword.

3. Open the Shrine Door

Take a ball up top and drop it into the hole; the shrine door opens.

Take the Light of Blessing.

FAQ

Where is Zanmik Shrine?
Southwest of Hateno Village in East Necluda, at 3470, -2181, 0171. Glide southeast from Mount Lanayru Skyview Tower.
The scoop is not picking up any balls — what now?
Skip the machine: stick a ball directly to a metal panel with Ultrahand and lift it out by hand. You only need one ball at the top, though two is a useful spare.
Where is the chest in Zanmik Shrine?
Under the balls. Clear several out of the pit to uncover the left side, and a chest appears — pull it out with Ultrahand for a Strong Zonaite Longsword.
