Tears of the Kingdom Tukarok Shrine guide

Posted in Guides

Wondering how to solve the Tears of the Kingdom Tukarok Shrine? Also known as Forward Force, the Tukarok is arguably one of the toughest early game shrines in The Legend of Zelda TotK. To solve the Turarok Shrine, you’ll need to guide a large ball to a sunken chamber. Easier said than done given there are several puzzles to tackle and an optional treasure chest.

We’ll provide a step-by-step walkthrough to solving this rather testing shrine. For more shrines, check out all the Tears of the Kingdom shrine locations and all the Tears of the Kingdom Skyview Tower locations to make getting to them easier.

The Tears of the Kingdom Tukarok Shrine is located east of Lookout Landing and west of Lanayru Wetlands at the coordinates 0915, -0250, 0034. It's northwest of the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower, south of Crenel Peak, and on the eastern bank of Hylia River in Hyrule.

As you enter the shrine, note the sunken receptacle on the floor ahead and the door on your left. To solve the Shrine, you’ll need to bring a large ball and pop it in the dish to open the door. Go forward up the short flight of stairs then glide down to the area below where you’ll find the ball.

Use Ultrahand to grab the ball and attach to the top of the cart. Climb onto the cart and hit any of the wheels and ride it over the lava pit to the other side. Grab the ball using Ultrahand and carry it up the stairs to the next puzzle.

Attach the ball to the top of the slab on the left of the room, then lean it against the wall with the ball at the top. Climb the ladder to the level above, and use Ultrahand to pull the ball up. Detach the ball from the slab and carry it into the next room.

In the next room, grab the wooden planks and attach them to each of the Zonai Device wheels on the raft. The idea is that when the wheels turn, the planks will act as paddles, propelling the raft forward. Attach the ball to the raft. Before climbing on, and hitting the wheels to get to the other side, use Ultrahand to grab the Tukarok Shrine chest out of the channel of water to the left of the raft. You’ll get a Strong Zonaite Sword for your efforts.

On the other side, detach the ball from the raft and place it on the switch by the door. Head through with the ball and drop it into the sunken dish. Head through to complete the Tears of the Kingdom Tukarok shrine and snag a Light of Blessing.
