Need help with the Wao-os Shrine in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom? Follow our step-by-step guide to solve the puzzles and claim your Blessing of Light.

Alright, let's get this Wao-os Shrine sorted! You'll find this one in the chilly Hebra region, west of Rito Village. You'll need to do a bit of climbing up the mountains, and then head into the West Lake Totori Cave – that's where the shrine is hiding.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    When you first step into the shrine, you'll see a couple of bullseye targets, a small ball, a bowl, and a block. Your goal here is to get that ball to hit the targets. Start by placing the ball on the wooden plank.
  2. 2
    Next, grab the block. Lift it as high as you can and then drop it on the opposite end of the plank. This should launch the ball towards the first target.
  3. 3
    Once that's done, the gate to your left will slide open, revealing the next part of the puzzle.
  4. 4
    Now, you'll need to make the plank into a longer see-saw to get more height for the ball. To do this, first, unfuse the bowl from the plank.
  5. 5
    Fuse the plank to the same end where the bowl was.
  6. 6
    Then, re-fuse the bowl to the very end of that plank, creating a much longer lever.
  7. 7
    Repeat the process: place the ball on the plank and drop the cube on the other end. This extended plank should give the ball enough force to hit the higher target, unlocking the final door.
  8. 8
    For the last part, it's your turn to be the projectile! Hop into the bowl yourself.
  9. 9
    Drop the cube one more time. This will launch you up into the air.
  10. 10
    Quickly pull out your paraglider and drift across to the ledge. You'll then enter the now-open gate, grab your Blessing of Light, and complete the shrine!
Tips
  • Make sure you're fusing the items correctly to create that extended plank. It's crucial for getting the height needed for the second target.
  • Don't rush the paraglider part after launching yourself. Take a moment to aim your drift towards the ledge.
