How to Solve Mayachideg Shrine in Tears of the Kingdom

In Tears of the Kingdom, the Mayachideg Shrine is found at these coordinates: 3061, 1823, 0216. Unlike, say, the Riogok Shrine, there’s no clear path of progression.

Now, your only objective is to destory the hostile constructs. How you do it is up to you, but from here on out I’ll explain how I completed it.

After grabbing the Wooden Stick, continue on inside. Notice the Zonai devices? Those are Homing Carts, and they seek out enemies to attack. However, they don’t do much unless there’s something on top. I attached both Homing Carts together, then stuck spiky walls on top. The bots put them to good use by ramming the constructs.

Once the door opened, I let the Homing Carts lead the charge. It was a good distraction, too, because I was able to sneak around to the other Homing Carts scattered about. Conveniently placed nearby are a variety of Zonai devices, too, such as:

  • Beam Emitter
  • Shock Emitter
  • Frost Emitter
  • Fire Emitter
  • Cannon

I had one Homing Cart using a Shock Emitter and another with the Beam Emitter. Those two alone were enough to decimate the construct army. When they’re all defeated, you can collect your Light of Blessing and the chest inside, containing a really strong Captain III Spear!

Well, folks, that’s what I did to solve the Mayachideg Shrine in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. It’d be interesting to hear how you managed to complete it, so let me know in the comments below. If you’re in need of more help, you can find more guides using the links below.
