Walkthrough
  1. 1
    To find the Kudanisar Shrine, head to the northern Gerudo Desert, northeast of the West Gerudo Ruins and south of Karusa Valley. It's best to reach it by gliding from nearby cliffs to avoid enemies and sand currents.
  2. 2
    Inside the shrine, the moving sand prevents normal traversal. Use the wooden boards flowing through the area. You can glide to the first board and move across them to a safe ledge, or construct a bridge with the boards.
  3. 3
    From the first ledge, use a wooden board to climb over the railing.
  4. 4
    Shoot the Construct on the platform ahead from a distance. Use the moving board to reach the platform.
  5. 5
    Hop across the sand to the next ledge and climb the ladder. Hit the switch on the ground to launch a small orb across the area.
  6. 6
    To complete the shrine, go to the area where the orb landed. Use Ascend to reach the top of the walled area. Defeat the two Constructs.
  7. 7
    Place the orb on a stable platform near the gate. Hit the switch on the other side to open the gate and place the orb inside.
Tips
  • Progress the main quests until you reach Regional Phenomena and complete the Lightning Temple in the Gerudo region to clear the sandstorm obscuring the desert.
  • You can glue boards together to create a makeshift bridge, but it may not reach all the way across.
  • When using the sled vehicles, park them behind something to prevent them from being swept away by the sand current.
  • To get the chest with Arrow x10, use Recall on the chest immediately after shooting the rope holding it, then use Ultrahand to bring it to a stable platform.
  • Orb of Life
  • Hasty Elixir (from chest)
  • Arrow x10 (from chest)
