@@happycamperds9917 I've tried it with Brightbloom seeds and got the same result. I think it's because both Mirrors and Dazzlefruit can be used to blind enemies, so they're basically treated as having the same effects on other objects too.
If this game was put out by say... Ubisoft than this would definitely be an issue and would turn into a frustrating experience. I don't have as much universal love for Nintendo as most it seems. I'm more of a Sony guy in terms of what types of games I usually prefer. But Nintendo put so much love and care into their products. They realize that if you take the extra time to polish something you won't just get the upfront money from the sale, but you'll build long term loyalty and love for literal decades. Then people will at least be interested in everything you release.
@@Irisverse I like to think of it as the difference between normal glow/light (eg torches, zonai lights, brightblooms) and the *element* of light, like the kind rauru has from his secret stone. The sage elements (minus spirit & time) all have status effect equivalents (burning, frozen, electrocuted, and ig technically ragdoll for wind) so I think thats why only the ones that blind work is because they're flagged as an element rather than a vision source
Love that this isn’t even the “wrong” way to solve a shrine, because Eiji Aonuma himself said that he intended for players to do things differently. We should remember that mirrors working using dazzle fruit could have easily been not programmed in, and only mirrors made to work, but it wasn’t!
As a programmer, I can't even see how that would happen if it's not intentional, it's two completely different game mechanics that would have no reason to interact if not programmed in
Light beam from mirror: Stuns Light blast from Dazzlefruit: Stun Maybe the light plates are just sensitive to stun effects, and that’s how it was programmed?
@@Mikemk_i think that light is its own "element" like electricity, ice, fire, and water, and the plates activate when exposed to enough of the light element
@@Mikemk_ I program games, and usually they will create a series of 'element' classes and give objects interactions with the elements, then have other objects create the elements. It creates more interesting gameplay and is a lot less work than manually programming interactions. Here they just have a light element and the dazzlefruit creates a light hitbox for x time, while the mirror creates a persistent light hitbox. Both of them stun enemies and both of them trigger light sensors without it needing to be programmed that way explicitly. Otherwise they'd have to manually program every source of fire doing fire things, light doing light things, etc etc etc.
@@TarossBlackburn You can also use the Yiga Schematic for the Sprinkler - 3 of those basically sludge-proofs the entire arena you fight in, and even 1 gives you a permanently sludge-free zone to launch attacks from

Most of these are really creative approaches, awesome video. A lot of these don't even really feel like cheese, but just an alternate solution that requires some creativity/thinking outside the box.
I did the same thing in the Flow proving grounds! I was trying to move something with ultrahand and realized I could move the platforms. I honestly thought that was intended! Like a secret tutorial to show you that most monsters can't swim. It was VERY helpful in Lurelin!
Lots of the time in this game a shrine will teach you a technique which can be used to 'cheat' other shrines, showing that its' actually intended by the developers. Its very cool game design.
@@chrismeulen8108 Almost all shrine puzzles have an intended way you're supposed to do them which doesn't use materials from outside the shrine. Just because nintendo is fine with other cheese methods doesn't mean there is no intended method. At the end of the day, I have to agree with the original commenter. If you're solving 80% of shrines using rockets and bombs to completely skip the puzzle, you aren't being smart, you're just optimizing out the fun.
@chrismeulen8108 there is absolutely an intended way to complete shrines, but theres just alternative options you can do by using objects from outside the shrine or cheesing it with your runes
@@Catalyst375 better than that, there is a shrine with the tag "lights out" i don't recall the name, but in that is iirc 3 rubies and an enemy with a ruby sword (which you can break apart in tarry town to get a 4th ruby) 4 rubies per blood moon is pretty good.
Some very clever solutions here. I discovered a few of these on my own, but most of these are new to me. It's satisfying stuff when you figure out how to "break" a shrine.
Thanks for the shout out man, at 1:34 when I did that shrine I attached the ball to the front of that car and stood it up next to the ladder, lifted it as far as it would go, climbed the ladder, recalled it back up and snatched the ball off of it. And the way you showed for Power of Water was actually the exact way I did it because my ape brain didn't grasp the concept of placing the battery on the nodes. Went around to see if there were any others I myself could solven't because your initial video put the idea in my head, found that the one called Building with Logs can be done with a series of bomb jumps or octo baloon shields to get onto the and over the ramps and first lake and then just swim across the lake at the end. And Built to Carry can be done by climbing up to the ball and using a bomb arrow to blast it over to the main platform, gotta aim for the pedestal it gets dispensed onto for enough height I think. That's all I found so far, this actually reminds me of Wand of Sparking doing this same thing but a few years ago in Breath of the Wild, neat concept all in all.
Quick note for the second one (fusing a cannon to a weapon for switch puzzles) Bomb flowers work just as well and I personally find it easier so use them because they can be fused to arrows for longer range and better accuracy.
In the shrine with the shield surfing, I attached a rocket to the shield, but I flew up and glided over. In courage to pluck, I just fused everything together with ultra hand.
your tone sounds a lot like the official nintendo english voiceover in directs, which is really funny in the context of explaining how to ignore their meticulously designed puzzles
Nintendo making shrines without gating the finish line is the equivalent of a samurai training 1000 years with a legendary sword to fight me, only for me to come in with a gun (shield rocket).
if it works it works is what i always say. also proves that the physics engine of totk is always working excellently addendum: - throwing an unwanted weapon at a target also works - fusing a hydrant to a shield lets you solidify magma faster. the same applies to a frost emitter. use them accordingly and you can cross any body of liquid even out in the open world - shrines like proving grounds: flow, actually expect you to beat the constructs by pushing them into the water, which is why they put all of them above a body of water. a lot of other shrines expect you to defeat the enemies using the environment such as water, traps, or roombas. - the alternating elevator was how i beat that shrine in the first place, which really made me question: why did the devs leave that part of the wall open? why didn't they just close it or lower the ceiling? it really made me question how shrines are designed and just how much the devs are toying with us - fusing a wing to a shield and then shield jumping also gives you on the spot bullet time
Normal bomb flowers fused to arrows will also activate targets! I used that for the second target shrine you showed cause I had enough after the 10th trial on that target.
"The more you know", yeah after the game has been out for almost two months now and most probably have beaten it awhile ago. I bought it later, and just finished today. Had tons of fun doing all the shrines, and exploring the depths later on in game. One video I found today... like I swear no one knew it. Apparently there are cherry trees throughout the main world you can offer an apple to, and it lights up cave locations all around those area.. like wtf?! Some shrine's caves were not easy to find. Took me forever in some cases. That trick would have been so handy to know.. aghhhhhhh
5:15 Here’s a not risky solution to Courage to Pluck: refuse to play Jenga by spamming Ultrahand and sticking the entire tower together, including the ball. Then just grab it, bring it back to the main platform, and remove the ball. It’s literally that simple. And no, it doesn’t exceed Ultrahand’s attachment limit.
There aren't wrong solutions. There is only a guided solution and many unguided ones. With recall i often forget that the limit is only how far you can see and how far the render distance of that object is. With some shrines you can easily move a Plattform to your destination, get it back to you and use recall to get to your destination. They could have made it that recall has a limited range to activate but they didn't. Stuff gets easier, when you know how to use everything to your advantage. But the game offers you a lot of possibilities and you can do it multiple ways.
the proving ground shrine with the rafts is actually fun, unlike the ones where the enemies all gang up on you, here the enemies stay in place, so it's easier to get trough, as for the Jenga one, i removed the wrong pieces on purpose, then grabbed the ball with ultrahand while the Jenga tower was falling.
Actually I think the intended solution is that you jump to the lower level of the raft, then chop it so the whole thing collapses and drowns the construct. That’s how I have done it previously. I love the ultra hand method,though. Brilliant. 👍🏻
As much as any solution is “intended” or not, dunking the constructs was also my strategy in Flow. This also works great for boko camps by the water with some ice fruit and/or a korok leaf.
The last one is a creative solution, but it basically requires you to hunt down a Lynel and Dazzlefruit to do it. It wastes durability and resources when the intended solution does none of those.
The problem with blowing up the ore spires tho is, the materials get flung everywhere. Unless you're talking about the big ore pockets, then I'd just use the Goron dude
you can't throw the master sword. if you try, it just doesn't leave your hand. i imagine they coded it to swing like it had a projectile-capable material fused to it, even if it didn't.
@@Survivor_15 yeah i knew that but i couldn't think of a way to eloquently put it. also i don't think it does that if it has something fused to it but i could be wrong on that.
I recently cheesed the paddleboat shrine using recall on the ball after b using ultra Hand to raise it as high as possible so that i could grab it at the top. Then, instead of building a paddleboat, i just built a bridge to cross the water.
My brother in Christ, 1:42 just use the block to slide forward and then rocket-shield ascend + paraglide to the right as the block falls down. No need to waste a crapton of rockets there.
I did bridging the sands like this and lmao that i didnt have to mess with all the annoying sand. Out of all of these, i feel like if you remember you have it, theres a good chance youll use it.

Also if you have a second metal object lying around... Bonus points for combat shrines! Glad to see Shrine Cheese strats are still alive and evolving. :)
im surprised that nintendo didnt make a couple of shrines that utilized more of the shield surfing's rail grinding, like that one multiplayer map in sonic adventure 2
There is "The Design Intended Way", then there's a multitude of "Alternate Ways" - Nintendo ensure that players are allowed to find whatever way they can to solve the Problem, and not punish them for doing so.
hey wait, would a light staff (magic staff or wand or whatever its called + star fragment) count for the light puzzle things too? sense you know, it kinda shoots out 3 balls of light.
I had no idea rockets could ride rails, i thought i would just bounce off like if you attach a mirror or anythign else large to a shield and try to ride it
3:28 I genuinely thought this was the intended solution for Flow. The proving grounds are all about being resourceful when stripped of your equipment, and this was the most optimal technique I had to outclass the constructs
Occam's Razor works in almost every shrine (problem-solving principle that recommends searching for explanations constructed with the smallest possible set of elements)
Somehow I couldn’t get it to work on the giant 8th heroine statue, even with a multishot bow and bullet timing very close to the dial, I was still just way too slow for it
For the sheild surfing on rails one, you can actually climb the rails without a rocket sheild as long as you let ZL center your camera first. Hold ZL, do a forward sheild surf, and as long as your direction didn't change too much from straight forward you should automatically clip to the rail and gain a little distance. Just repeat this over and over until you make it to the end
Yep and then after you pull the rafts from underneath them you can fuse them from afar together so I was able to get rid of almost everybody on the first two levels by simply fusing the rafts structures together.
4:11 I thought that was the intended way? It's the most obvious thing to do when you see it fly away and both my brother and I did it in our playthroughs separately.
I need to send you mine. There's a shrine where you have to fuse stuff to a giant ball so it can ride on rails all the way around the shrine arena back to the entrance. I had a grudge against that shrine. I was able to get it down from it's high platform down to the switch with well timed octoballoon arrow shots.
I'll be completing some Zelda: TotK challenge runs.
What might you like to see first?
Only spears sounds cool ngl
only throwing items, weapons and objects like rocks to deal damage
All shrines no paraglider.
Only wearing the ruby patting or only using zonite weapons

I like that the in-game rules are consistent, like the dazzlefruit being a legitimate source of light for that last puzzle

3:28 I genuinely thought this was the intended solution for Flow. The proving grounds are all about being resourceful when stripped of your equipment, and this was the most optimal technique I had to outclass the constructs
Bro now im seeing this after completing every shrine the correct way
i did the exact same thing in bridging the sand just by knowing recall has no limit xD
Occam's Razor works in almost every shrine (problem-solving principle that recommends searching for explanations constructed with the smallest possible set of elements)
Somehow I couldn’t get it to work on the giant 8th heroine statue, even with a multishot bow and bullet timing very close to the dial, I was still just way too slow for it
For the sheild surfing on rails one, you can actually climb the rails without a rocket sheild as long as you let ZL center your camera first. Hold ZL, do a forward sheild surf, and as long as your direction didn't change too much from straight forward you should automatically clip to the rail and gain a little distance. Just repeat this over and over until you make it to the end
Yep and then after you pull the rafts from underneath them you can fuse them from afar together so I was able to get rid of almost everybody on the first two levels by simply fusing the rafts structures together.
Im feeling called out by some of these tricks, because i used them in my first playtrough
Now I just need some wine and crackers for all this cheese.
If the rails are ascending, just shield surf in place rather than using rockets
The sand slows one. I used recall on the ball after it hit the ground. There is apparently no distance max with recall lol
4:30 I though that was the intended solution. 💀
3:54 My brain didn't even realize I cheesed it by using recall until I saw this video lol
4:11 I thought that was the intended way? It's the most obvious thing to do when you see it fly away and both my brother and I did it in our playthroughs separately.
in shrines that have fire blocking your path, you fan used the upgraded flamebreaker armor to cheese it easily lol
You can simply use bomb arrow and don't need the cannon. You can use splash fruit in the lava.
Okay, now do a blessing shrine the wrong way, I dare you.
I need to send you mine. There's a shrine where you have to fuse stuff to a giant ball so it can ride on rails all the way around the shrine arena back to the entrance. I had a grudge against that shrine. I was able to get it down from it's high platform down to the switch with well timed octoballoon arrow shots.
if you don't have a lynel bow, a quick shot bow also works to activate the light sensors if your shots are quick enough.
in courage to pluck all I did was attach all the blocks and parts to each other and take it off the platform
