I never sleep. There is always something to do. The only skelies that are remotely challenging are the stalmoblins, and you can just run from them if you have high stamina. I also do my cooking at night. It's best to look for luminous stone at night, too.
I figured out #1 pretty quickly, but I *hated* those twin shrines on the dueling peaks where you needed information from one to solve the other. Since there was a *third* shrine on the peaks that I found first, I got confused and thought *that* shrine was part of the puzzle.
The labyrinths in hebra and gerudo can’t be cheated because they’re underground, but for the labyrinth in akkala, you can just climb or use revalis gale to get on top of the labyrinth and go straight to it
I'm glad I picked up this game 2 years after its release, because everything has been discovered for me. Otherwise I'd have rage quit 100 times over by now.
Does anyone else remember that shrine that has the platform lifted by balloons that you had to blow through a maze of spikes? That one was the hardest for me 😩
I just did that one yesterday, I hated it so much 😭 I find most of the motion control ones easy, I was surprised I'd never seen anyone complain about the spike one
@@osirisbretoi7841 Incorrect. Killing enemies has no effect on bloodmoons. It's purely unpaused game time. The exception is panic bloodmoons which are triggered when the long term RAM hits 90%, which is still not triggered by killing enemies as enemies are tracked in game data, not RAM.
Words can't express how relieved I am that Keo Ruug made the #1 spot. I think that was the first shrine to make me admit defeat and look up a walkthrough.
@@Bob-nu3wr So that means, that you LIKED it when the shrines where easy as fuck and an insult to your intelligence? I was glad when I finally found a Shrine that was atleast something like a challange. And the No1 spot on the list is even my favourite Shrine in the game because it makes you think for yourself a little bit and doesn't give away the whole thing in the tiltle like some Shrines do. I remember a Shrine called "The red Wall" that, when i look on the puzzle itself could have been atleast medium hard. But the title alone gave pritty mutch away, that i had to use Magnesis to do something with a wall and after that, everything was a boring piece of cake.
Completing Eventide is so rewarding! I was able to grab the final orb while the Hinox was sleeping and he chased me as I took it to the pedestal. When I placed it, he was very close to catching me. The game then gave back all my items and I smiled gleefully as I went full power against the Hinox. One of the best bits of the game, for me.
Ok so my mom and dad “helped” me with #15 because they watched me and kept yelling “tilt it this way, no THIS way” so I was like IF ITS SO EASY YOU DO IT! and we all took turns trying lol. I eventually got it though 😁
My daughter told me, "Just flip the platform over!" With detached controllers or a pro controller, this is a very easy solution. But I didn't think of it myself. My first play through I thought "traditional Zelda" in which there is ONE and only one solution to every puzzle, and so I struggled a lot until late game.
well that must have been bugged, as you have to have no armor on while standing on the pedestal. This is hinted through it saying only the air between you and the moon
@@floortile4813 In my game I also just had to be on the pedestal on the blood moon night (even after the cutscene) but of course I had to fulfill the requirements (no armor or weapons). I think that is what *Chada* and Ryu Issey meant.
@@theinfiniteconqueror No, there's a little time after the scene at midnight to still get on there, it's when the background normalizes that it no longer can activate. That's how i did it in time.
10:57 you can set those plants on the floor on fire. The guardians will be instantly defeated. It is an easy and fast way to get though that part of the shrine
I love how there are various ways to complete the shrines, in my first playtrought i always followed the obvius way to beat them, then the second Time i skiped most of them by using stasis and throwing myself into the monk chamber or other shenanigans like the shield doble jump or just blow myself whit bombs to get out of reach edges. Its really satisfactory when you can use your experience in the game to find alternate paths to overcome a challenge and not just an hability or ítem that works as shortcut. (Sorry for my bad english : / )
For the blood moon one, you can trigger a 'panic blood moon' by killing lots of minibosses or lynels, basically anything there isn't very much of in the game. It's a reset mechanic, so 3-5 hinoxes can force one at any time.
So I just started my first playthrough because I’ve had the game for years and I could t justify buying tears of the kingdom without having played through this first… I had 0 idea about this mechanic and I thank you. It’s good to know about regardless of doing this shine quest or not, thank you!
This is incorrect. Blood moons are only set up as panic moons when there is a memory issue. Such as a sound issue or a purposeful memory overload issue. All creatures are stored on the init file mean that they are moment you boot up the game their stated setup for permanent memory this means that they are unable to effect any memory issues that cause a blood moon. Blood moons happen every 7 endgame days. Or about two-and-a-half hours
The shrine requires observation and thinking critically. After how many shrines you would think that people would, but it just shows it. Yes. This shrine was easy
9:20 I didn't know you could pick up the laser, and once I did I didn't realise I could place it on the moving platform so I had some trouble with this one. My way of doing it was way overcomplicated. 1. Set up bombs around the crystal so they don't hit eachother but do hit the crystal. 2. Place the laser so it aims at the crystal, and stasis it so it doesn't shoot. 3. Shoot an arrow at the crystal and immediately jump onto the first platform to get up one layer. 4. Wait for stasis to wear off and hit the crystal, to go up another layer 5. Use one bomb to go up another layer 6. Use the other bomb to get up and claim the spirit orb. I was dumb so I had to be smart.
I did something similar, but i couldn't do it, so at one point i just started to blow myself with bombs or do windbombs, i figured out i could move the laser when i accidentaly fell in it and it moved
If you figured out that you could "place" the laser, why didn't you put it on the moving platform? there is no way to just turn that one, the only way to interact with it was to either stasis it in the position it is already in (not facing the crystal) or pick it up.
if you're having issue with the Tu Ka'loh Shrine (labyrinth island): it has been one of the easiest to me, because: in a labyrinth, to not get lost, you need to pick a wall, and keep following the same wall to the end. for this one, i picked left, and found no enemy, and most importantly found close to the shrine a metal box that was hiding a secret pathway. after that you only meet a few bats. at the start tho, the feet guardian notice you immediately, since it scared me i accidentally jumped off, so the guardian lost sight of me and went back to its position, and since there's wind you can get back at the entrance easily with the paraglider, and just sneek to the left.
I think Shora Hah (#4) is most deserving of the #1 spot. They could've broken it up into three different shrines. I wasted about 40 arrows on the platforms that move back and forth between the water spouts.
I was playing at around 3 AM and was ready to go to sleep, but I found this shrine and I was like, "I'll just do this shrine real quickly and then go to sleep. I finished at 4
@@haydenschmidty8554 that's fair lol, I was just sassing but it sounded like you said you'd just accidentally ran onto the pedestal on a blood moon with no previous knowledge
Honestly I don’t know how I feel about number 8. Like, I guess it gave me an opportunity to get better at fighting guardians or something. But at the same time, I ended up breaking my best sword, breaking a ton of bows, and using up literally ALL of my arrows. I’m talking ice, explosive, fire, electric- literally every single arrow I had. And all I got was a flame blade, I wanted my dignity but I got a flame blade instead
If you use a combination of bullet time bounces and wind bombs, you might make it up the first staircase, but after that it’s basically impossible because of the chest blocking your way.
@@deathxanamon7211 yeah but you can do that from on top of the shrine. Get above the shrine, drop down the side and walk in. It's that simple. That's literally how I did it
Trinity Machi you can only get the mask if you have the dlc, it’s in a chest located somewhere around Hyrule. Enemies won’t attack you when you’re wearing it
mipha’s grace some won’t, anyway. ChuChus, Wizzrobes and Keese still notice you. And if they do, Majora’s Mask stops working for that group of enemies.
If you didn’t include the one where you had to hit a ball across an ocean and land it in a hole you are not allowed to play Zelda again and yes I did this before the 1st one started
2:48 Blood Moons trigger depending on how many enemies you've defeated + if the night has a full moon. Try taking out a couple overworld bosses then return to the shrine!
for the “under the red moon” quest, you don’t need to be there exactly as the blood moon triggers! i made it there about 10-20 in-game minutes after it triggered, but the shrine still appeared
I kinda wished this video was split into two, because it seems like a lot of them on the list are annoying because of the shrine quest, not the actual shrine. I'd be down to see what you had to say about top 15 shrine quests and another one specifically on the shrines themselves ^^ Still like the video tho no hate
The motion control shrines with the pro controller are actually pretty fun if you set them up right. If you make sure your controller is level before activating the motion control thingy, the puzzle will match up. I got so frustrated the first time doing the one in Hateno village because I wasn’t expecting it to be motion control and I was sitting back in my chair with my controller at an angle when I activated it. It makes everything disoriented and not make sense. Then I eventually pressed B to reset it and leveled my controller before pressing A to try it again. Made it way easier and so much more enjoyable. Seriously, try it. You’ll appreciate these puzzles way more.
for #5, i used bombs and arrows, somehow getting to the last stair thingy, then jumped on the lantern thing and jumped up to where the spirit orb was. i didnt even realize you can move the laser lol
I finished the Oaki Stalking quest today. I found it very hard. I like stealth games though, and all the times I failed made the victory at the end more delicious.
For the quest where you have to follow the korok, just plan your route and go without the korok. Sit on top of a tree next to the shrine and wait for him to come (he is coming even if you don’t see him). He cannot notice you if you are already there :]
Although I have horrible memories of it, I have to agree that one is more annoying than hard. My first playthrough I was passing time over and over with no blood moon coming and it took me forever to actually get it to spawn. But then I realized it's best done by completing a shrine nearby (I usually do the one on Satori Mountain) and when you see a blood moon, teleport to that shrine and paraglide to where you need to go.
I had to do Oaki's shrine quest so many times that I ended up memorizing the path and then just running to the end where I could wait for Oaki by climbing up a tree. Also, for that shrine, I found that you could use stasis and follow the flowers that were highlighted all the way up to where you could see the shrine.
Really? I found most of these easy... Eventide wasn't even that hard to me? I just thought of it as a game restart instead of 'oh no I just lost all my things time to panic!'
One of the charms of botw is that you dont have to follow the rules. If you can think outside the box most of the shrines become easy. Take the slab and box stacking shrine. If you just stack the boxed on the first platform you can climb high enough to glide to the finish platform or in two bombs, if you get link onto the bomb platform your task becomes less about timing but more of careful positioning of said bombs.
If your playing with the joycons detached on the apparatus shrines put down the left joycon, turn the right one 90 degrees and then the controls actually do what you want
For the #6 ( 8:28 ) i found a very easy way to do it: -Take the 3 metal cubes with polaris to climb up where the metal plate is. -throw the "plate" away -take the 3 cubes to where you are and form a tower. -Climb to the top -Just glide to the end of the shrine I'm not native english speaker so if there is any mistake please forgive me i'm just trying to help you
On the shine where you follow a korok, you can actually sneak past him by using stasis and then follow the nightshade flowers that will turn yellow when you use the stasis. After following the flowers, you should reach the shine without having to wait for the korok.
On my third playthrough of BotW (my current playthrough), I saw the shrine where you follow Oaki, thought i was safe, and then got destroyed, sent back to the beginning, and I screamed.
I think that all shrines in Zelda Botw are simple, if so then some shrines are just annoying, such as those with motion control. Except the trial of the sword in master's was pretty difficult. Btw nice video👌
After watching this I realized I cheesed the ever-loving hell out of Ishto Soh Shrine. And I Dont remember how. All I know is that I did not know that the Laser box could be Picked up at the Time I completed the Shrine Edit: I do remember Hitting it for the First time with an arrow, then the Next 2 times with the 2 bomb Runes. But I'm not sure how I hit it for the Fourth time. Maybe with the Fire or Electric Rod? Or their upgraded versions
I'm amazed that the Kaam Ya'tak shrine (Trial of Power) was not mentioned. On my second playthrough I thought, "What if I go this way first?" and that was one of my first shrines. I had to back out because of all of the guardians. Also obviously the Major Test of Strength shrines... you have to bring strong weapons with you to the shrine in order to get through.
Shee Venath and Shee Vaneer shrines on top of the dueling peaks are both the same puzzle as Keo Ruug shrine, but even harder as you need to go back and fourth to memorise the one you did first.
i thought thhis list would finally be better than the other one, but you kept the stasis ball puzzle shrine on this list, and it was also an OPTIONAL challenge as well in the shrine
The hardest one to me, by a long shot, wasn't even mentioned in the video. To Quomo Shrine, the one within the giant skeleton which is lying in a cave in an icy mountain. I spent excruciating 4+ hours using the Sheikah Slate for guidance trying to find the ridiculously elusive entrance of the cave, and yet I had no success at all! The entrance was so freaking far from the signal that I'd never have gone there by searching it, which is treacherously counter-intuitive. When I finally got utterly fed up, gave up on my brave self-made progress on the whole game that far and looked up the name of the shrine to watch its walkthrough on UA-cam, the guy in the video was already starting at a place on the map that I had simply never been or seen. And that was the day I died. Out of pure humiliation. The puzzle was just starting, but from there on nothing would ever cause me psychological trauma as the search for the entrance did. That day was crazy.
15. Motion controls are something you have to get used to. The Pro Controller won't do, and if using handheld mode or a Switch Lite, rest it against a pillow at a 45-degree angle. 14. Actually, this one is probably even harder than the Lakna Rokee shrine. You have to follow Oaki for longer, at one point he'll get scared and backtrack, and a wolf will show up along the way. Ancient Cores however are always worth it. 13. Or you could go to the Rucco Maag shrine. It often causes the game to panic and trigger a Blood Moon. Plus, it's just a Modest Test of Strength! 12. A guide can help you. It's worth it getting lost, as there are Treasure Chests aplenty. Also, the Barbarian Set is worth anything. A Lynel is not as hard to kill as a Hinox, Talus, or Molduga. 11. The hard part is the Hinox. However, it's not as hard to kill as the Thyplo Ruins Hinox, which you have to fight in the dark. Also, there are harder Side-Quests that are only worth a Silver Rupee. 10. IS THIS A JOKE? You just have to be prepared with a lot of stamina for the Shrine Quest. And the Shrine is basically "Use Stasis on the laser three times to win.". 9. Both the Shrine Quest and the shrine itself have a seven-word strategy: You need to play more Subway Surfers. 8. Use the updrafts. The Guardians will miss literally every shot. Use a similar strategy when subduing Vah Medoh. 7. Experimentation is the answer. Also, if you're having trouble with the Luminous Stones, their Ore Deposits are right by the shrine's pedestal. 6. Trial and error, yes. But little of BOTW is luck-based. In order by region (with shrines in the same region sorted by name), this is the very last shrine, so you should've mastered camera controls. 5. Another Stasis-on-laser shrine, this is only a little bit harder than the Mezza Lo and Neez Yohma shrines and easier than the Jee Noh Shrine, and it doesn't even have a Shrine Quest! 4. What about the Joloo Nah Shrine? There are more fountains, plus you have to use motion controls! 3. Hit the heirloom exactly four times, but also remember that you need the Treasure Chest. Simple? 2. Dorian is easier to follow than Oaki, as he doesn't have as good hearing. Also, the Yiga Blademaster isn't that hard, and the Edge of Duality inside the shrine is worth it. 1. A guide (not mine) will show you the positions of the heirlooms. The Shee Vaneer/Venath Shrine is probably harder, as you don't have Camera yet.

10:44 - Use stasis
10:57 - Burn up the leaves and the mini guardians will burn too.
But do you really have to burn the leaves? They are so easy anyway.
if you're having issue with the Tu Ka'loh Shrine (labyrinth island):
it has been one of the easiest to me, because: in a labyrinth, to not get lost, you need to pick a wall, and keep following the same wall to the end.
for this one, i picked left, and found no enemy, and most importantly found close to the shrine a metal box that was hiding a secret pathway.
after that you only meet a few bats.
at the start tho, the feet guardian notice you immediately, since it scared me i accidentally jumped off, so the guardian lost sight of me and went back to its position, and since there's wind you can get back at the entrance easily with the paraglider, and just sneek to the left.
I think Shora Hah (#4) is most deserving of the #1 spot. They could've broken it up into three different shrines. I wasted about 40 arrows on the platforms that move back and forth between the water spouts.
Same
I was playing at around 3 AM and was ready to go to sleep, but I found this shrine and I was like, "I'll just do this shrine real quickly and then go to sleep.
I finished at 4
Bill Karim wasn’t that hard
That one guy you are that one guy lmao
Bill Karim imo it can be hard at first, but honestly since most of it is rather straightforward.
I accidentally got the blood moon one, I was just looking at the pedestal and then I hopped on. A blood moon happened then BAM! Shrine quest done!
I guess that means you play naked then, no shame in that
Felix C I saw the quest so I got naked and ran around during the day
@@haydenschmidty8554 that's fair lol, I was just sassing but it sounded like you said you'd just accidentally ran onto the pedestal on a blood moon with no previous knowledge
Felix C oh yeah should have cleared that up... :)
Figuring out Keo Ruug on my own is honestly the greatest achievement of my life
Link, The Hero of Winds Not gonna lie it took me like 10 minutes before I even realized the constellations were on the back wall.
Same
Honestly I don’t know how I feel about number 8. Like, I guess it gave me an opportunity to get better at fighting guardians or something. But at the same time, I ended up breaking my best sword, breaking a ton of bows, and using up literally ALL of my arrows. I’m talking ice, explosive, fire, electric- literally every single arrow I had. And all I got was a flame blade, I wanted my dignity but I got a flame blade instead
You could have just ran past them
Ashy Kat it not really cowardice. Nobody will blame you for quickly gliding past 50 guardians, which are among the strongest enemy in the game
@Kellen Nicholson yeah you probably sucks
@Kellen Nicholson sorry if I was rude... I just felt like you were saying the game was shit without reason... (btw sorry for my bad english)
@Kellen Nicholson you're obviously saying shit... In that case why is there so many people playing zelda botw?
No the blessing are the hardest walking up the stairs
If you use a combination of bullet time bounces and wind bombs, you might make it up the first staircase, but after that it’s basically impossible because of the chest blocking your way.
Jacob Sims when there is a garbage bag in the “way”
XD
can someone help me on the blessing shrines? i can’t get through them
@@saiji9000 I'd love to man but, at this point I destroyed my switch due to how hard they were
12:51 Lmao the way he walks
Hehe I just searched the ones I didn’t know how to do 😂
Ye same
i lack in patience so instead of just trying most of the shrines ill just look up the videos
Perfecto
ME TOO
Same dude
The most difficult maze one can be done from above. You just glide to the wall, climb up and navigate the top of the shrine
No you can't, you have to go in the maze because in order to get to the shrine you have to go under the walls through the little holes in the walls
@@deathxanamon7211 yeah but you can do that from on top of the shrine. Get above the shrine, drop down the side and walk in. It's that simple. That's literally how I did it
@@katsimpsforleviathan that’s what I did for all of them lol
#9 was easy as pie. I had Majora's Mask.
That’s why
How do you get the majoras mask? And what does it do?
Trinity Machi you can only get the mask if you have the dlc, it’s in a chest located somewhere around Hyrule. Enemies won’t attack you when you’re wearing it
mipha’s grace some won’t, anyway. ChuChus, Wizzrobes and Keese still notice you. And if they do, Majora’s Mask stops working for that group of enemies.
Same but i used the moblin mask
#5, I just looked at the shrine from the point of view of the developer’s. “Why is this platform moving?” And went from there.
Shora Hah is literally trying to make you angry
It even laughs at you in the name
I just laughed out loud really loudly on a train into the city packed of people
I adored the labyrinths, they were so much fun! Exactly the kind of challenge I want!
4:30 heh.. I thought I was a genius for leaving all my weapons on the shore before doing the shrine.
Manuela Hatler you have to drop them before you complete the shrine or else they’ll be taken away
@@elliemorgan1724 yeah but when you've completed it it gets rid of all gear you collected during eventide island. Aka the weapons you dropped there
lol rip
@@sean8024 Not if you drop them before putting the final orb in. Then you can pick them up again later.
bahahahhahshshb sameeeee
If you didn’t include the one where you had to hit a ball across an ocean and land it in a hole you are not allowed to play Zelda again and yes I did this before the 1st one started
Wait, what is poofesures girlfriend doing here?
Zoë because I’m a Nintendo character, you would expect me to play Nintendo games
You were supposed to go around the the loops thing but ok
he included it 😭
@@elliemorgan1724 which place??
2:20 That took me an hour to do! It was an hour of suffering!
Bloopyblurp 10 omg sameee
I just ran to the shrine after about 5 hours of being sent back
Me too, I fell asleep while I was on it
That was easy for me some reason
I found a trick use the stasis and it will help you see
2:48 Blood Moons trigger depending on how many enemies you've defeated + if the night has a full moon. Try taking out a couple overworld bosses then return to the shrine!
2:48 Full Moon
2:48 🌕
🌙
2:48 Total Lunar Eclipse
for the “under the red moon” quest, you don’t need to be there exactly as the blood moon triggers! i made it there about 10-20 in-game minutes after it triggered, but the shrine still appeared
I never knew that you could move the laser in the Ishto Soh shrine, I always used carefully placed bombs, throwing weapons, and the paraglider
I kinda wished this video was split into two, because it seems like a lot of them on the list are annoying because of the shrine quest, not the actual shrine. I'd be down to see what you had to say about top 15 shrine quests and another one specifically on the shrines themselves ^^ Still like the video tho no hate
You know it got real when eventide is 11
I loved #1 it’s just a game of battle ship. I wish there were more shrines like that out there. Dueling peaks on the other hand? No thanks.
The motion control shrines with the pro controller are actually pretty fun if you set them up right. If you make sure your controller is level before activating the motion control thingy, the puzzle will match up. I got so frustrated the first time doing the one in Hateno village because I wasn’t expecting it to be motion control and I was sitting back in my chair with my controller at an angle when I activated it. It makes everything disoriented and not make sense. Then I eventually pressed B to reset it and leveled my controller before pressing A to try it again. Made it way easier and so much more enjoyable.
Seriously, try it. You’ll appreciate these puzzles way more.
for #5, i used bombs and arrows, somehow getting to the last stair thingy, then jumped on the lantern thing and jumped up to where the spirit orb was. i didnt even realize you can move the laser lol
That was my solution. I didn't know you could move the laser until I looked it up out of curiosity.
Whoever finished to dueling peaks shrines without youtube
They must have a Jimmy Nuetron sized head.
You must be a little slow it’s okay.
10:45 you can also use stasis on one of the waterspouts light it and then like the second one with a torch
Yeah that’s what I’d of done lmao
Watched this video 2 years ago, got recommended it now. Gonna replay this beauty just for this.
I did the Ishto Soh Shrine different, I put threw my bombs near the trigger and paraglided from a high place and detonated the bomb.
I accidentally solved it
Lol I didn't know you could pick up the lazer.
I finished the Oaki Stalking quest today. I found it very hard. I like stealth games though, and all the times I failed made the victory at the end more delicious.
#1 had me so lost for the longest time! I kept leaving and coming back to it, and I was just about to look up a guide when it clicked!
the maze shrines are easy. literally climb on top. simple.
Cuts only half the process. There are areas and tunnels that actually lead to the shrine that can't be easily seen from above
@@TheFoolishSamurai videos for that
@@DiamondSparklz61 At that point, the challenge is completely gone. I was talking about doing it without guides
It pretty obvious which one is the entrance
I got super lucky with the bloodmoon shrine quest, I slept by a campfire once and the blood moon triggered
For the quest where you have to follow the korok, just plan your route and go without the korok. Sit on top of a tree next to the shrine and wait for him to come (he is coming even if you don’t see him). He cannot notice you if you are already there :]
The blood moon shrine quest was easy, when i found it, that night there was a blood moon
Although I have horrible memories of it, I have to agree that one is more annoying than hard. My first playthrough I was passing time over and over with no blood moon coming and it took me forever to actually get it to spawn. But then I realized it's best done by completing a shrine nearby (I usually do the one on Satori Mountain) and when you see a blood moon, teleport to that shrine and paraglide to where you need to go.
Same happened with me, got a campfire started, settled in for many waits but the first night the moon was red xD
Just saying when the blood moon occurs and you are too late you can go to a previous save before the blood moon happens to complete the shrine quest
btw, the blood moons aren’t completely random. they trigger every 2 hours or something like that and cannot be sped up by fire or beds
I think it's 3 h actually
okay BUT
have you ever tried to complete one of the motion control apparatuses on the wii U? cuz i have.
*its hell*
I did. I did all of them. And I finished them all on the Wii u. You and me are the real proffesionals
Helena vd Boogaart it fucking hurt, bruh
Honestly, I never found any of the labyrinth shrines too hard. If you have enough stamina, you can climb to the top and cheese the entire thing.
Good video, your channel is very underrated, I like your content, cheers
I had to do Oaki's shrine quest so many times that I ended up memorizing the path and then just running to the end where I could wait for Oaki by climbing up a tree. Also, for that shrine, I found that you could use stasis and follow the flowers that were highlighted all the way up to where you could see the shrine.
Really? I found most of these easy...
Eventide wasn't even that hard to me? I just thought of it as a game restart instead of 'oh no I just lost all my things time to panic!'
5Geass when I did it I thought it was going to be so hard but ended up just breezing through it
Sams I did it in one go lol
You’re such a badass and a legend, bro. Really smart too.
For me, #1 is easily Dunba Taag, I barely rage when it comes to video games but that one got me.
I found the Fateful Stars one not difficult really...it was just a really fun puzzle lol. One of my favourites I've done
One of the charms of botw is that you dont have to follow the rules. If you can think outside the box most of the shrines become easy. Take the slab and box stacking shrine. If you just stack the boxed on the first platform you can climb high enough to glide to the finish platform or in two bombs, if you get link onto the bomb platform your task becomes less about timing but more of careful positioning of said bombs.
But everything changed when link learned how to wind bomb
If your playing with the joycons detached on the apparatus shrines put down the left joycon, turn the right one 90 degrees and then the controls actually do what you want
12:40
You also have to re-light the torches around the goddess statue for the girl in the arrow shop
For the #6 ( 8:28 ) i found a very easy way to do it:
-Take the 3 metal cubes with polaris to climb up where the metal plate is.
-throw the "plate" away
-take the 3 cubes to where you are and form a tower.
-Climb to the top
-Just glide to the end of the shrine
I'm not native english speaker so if there is any mistake please forgive me i'm just trying to help you
The ones with the stackable cubes was easy, I just put them up on the platform and glided to the end
4:32 I'm happy to hear that I'm not the only one who does this
The motion controll shrines were so easy, i didnt had any problem
sorry for bad english i am from germany
I don’t has good English too
@@jerm6745 yea i am sorry for this i am from germany
Spactray @Spactray It ok
Tbh that was good english
On the shine where you follow a korok, you can actually sneak past him by using stasis and then follow the nightshade flowers that will turn yellow when you use the stasis. After following the flowers, you should reach the shine without having to wait for the korok.
In my opinion #1 was fairly eas. I got it without looking up a tutorial.
Yes same
On my third playthrough of BotW (my current playthrough), I saw the shrine where you follow Oaki, thought i was safe, and then got destroyed, sent back to the beginning, and I screamed.
In my opinion #8 is not hard if u just keep gliding the guardians can’t hit u
Lukamash456 Ya but that’s no fun! It’s immensely harder if you decide to end all the Guardians before reaching the Shrine
I think that all shrines in Zelda Botw are simple, if so then some shrines are just annoying, such as those with motion control. Except the trial of the sword in master's was pretty difficult.
Btw nice video👌
After watching this I realized I cheesed the ever-loving hell out of Ishto Soh Shrine. And I Dont remember how. All I know is that I did not know that the Laser box could be Picked up at the Time I completed the Shrine
Edit: I do remember Hitting it for the First time with an arrow, then the Next 2 times with the 2 bomb Runes. But I'm not sure how I hit it for the Fourth time. Maybe with the Fire or Electric Rod? Or their upgraded versions
I'm amazed that the Kaam Ya'tak shrine (Trial of Power) was not mentioned. On my second playthrough I thought, "What if I go this way first?" and that was one of my first shrines. I had to back out because of all of the guardians. Also obviously the Major Test of Strength shrines... you have to bring strong weapons with you to the shrine in order to get through.
8:50 stack them up on the platform and paraglide “DUH”
More like stasis launch yourself on a box
Tip for number six: stack them on the one you get the slab on and glide down from a tower you make on the platform
5:35
Lol I never used statis, I just used remote bombs and arrows
Waiting at a campfire of sleeping don’t speed up the blood moon.
You have to be active in the game.
No map
No inventory
Move around for 2h 45m 15s.
The labyrinths are easy if you just climb the walls...
2:33 fun fact, a blood moon apears every 165 minutes of gameplay, do it could literally take up to almost 3 hours to complete
I hate being “that guy” but a lot of these aren’t difficult at all really
That's what I thought. Especially the #1 shrine. As soon as you figure out the gimmick, its SUPER easy.
My list is just , the golfing into the hole and the motion control shrines and that's it
Shee Venath and Shee Vaneer shrines on top of the dueling peaks are both the same puzzle as Keo Ruug shrine, but even harder as you need to go back and fourth to memorise the one you did first.
WELL GUESS WHAT
I BEAT ALL 136
(There is 120 but I did the 16 DLC shrines too)
So. 100,000s of people have, including me.

You don’t have to rub it in our faces
i thought thhis list would finally be better than the other one, but you kept the stasis ball puzzle shrine on this list, and it was also an OPTIONAL challenge as well in the shrine
The hardest one has to be the one in the dark forest
Captin Gillian! I wouldn’t say it’s the hardest it should’ve made the list
The hardest one to me, by a long shot, wasn't even mentioned in the video.
To Quomo Shrine, the one within the giant skeleton which is lying in a cave in an icy mountain.
I spent excruciating 4+ hours using the Sheikah Slate for guidance trying to find the ridiculously elusive entrance of the cave, and yet I had no success at all! The entrance was so freaking far from the signal that I'd never have gone there by searching it, which is treacherously counter-intuitive.
When I finally got utterly fed up, gave up on my brave self-made progress on the whole game that far and looked up the name of the shrine to watch its walkthrough on UA-cam, the guy in the video was already starting at a place on the map that I had simply never been or seen. And that was the day I died. Out of pure humiliation.
The puzzle was just starting, but from there on nothing would ever cause me psychological trauma as the search for the entrance did.
That day was crazy.
"Top 15 hardest shrines"
Wait... I've done all of these 😂
15. Motion controls are something you have to get used to. The Pro Controller won't do, and if using handheld mode or a Switch Lite, rest it against a pillow at a 45-degree angle.
14. Actually, this one is probably even harder than the Lakna Rokee shrine. You have to follow Oaki for longer, at one point he'll get scared and backtrack, and a wolf will show up along the way. Ancient Cores however are always worth it.
13. Or you could go to the Rucco Maag shrine. It often causes the game to panic and trigger a Blood Moon. Plus, it's just a Modest Test of Strength!
12. A guide can help you. It's worth it getting lost, as there are Treasure Chests aplenty. Also, the Barbarian Set is worth anything. A Lynel is not as hard to kill as a Hinox, Talus, or Molduga.
11. The hard part is the Hinox. However, it's not as hard to kill as the Thyplo Ruins Hinox, which you have to fight in the dark. Also, there are harder Side-Quests that are only worth a Silver Rupee.
10. IS THIS A JOKE? You just have to be prepared with a lot of stamina for the Shrine Quest. And the Shrine is basically "Use Stasis on the laser three times to win.".
9. Both the Shrine Quest and the shrine itself have a seven-word strategy: You need to play more Subway Surfers.
8. Use the updrafts. The Guardians will miss literally every shot. Use a similar strategy when subduing Vah Medoh.
7. Experimentation is the answer. Also, if you're having trouble with the Luminous Stones, their Ore Deposits are right by the shrine's pedestal.
6. Trial and error, yes. But little of BOTW is luck-based. In order by region (with shrines in the same region sorted by name), this is the very last shrine, so you should've mastered camera controls.
5. Another Stasis-on-laser shrine, this is only a little bit harder than the Mezza Lo and Neez Yohma shrines and easier than the Jee Noh Shrine, and it doesn't even have a Shrine Quest!
4. What about the Joloo Nah Shrine? There are more fountains, plus you have to use motion controls!
3. Hit the heirloom exactly four times, but also remember that you need the Treasure Chest. Simple?
2. Dorian is easier to follow than Oaki, as he doesn't have as good hearing. Also, the Yiga Blademaster isn't that hard, and the Edge of Duality inside the shrine is worth it.
1. A guide (not mine) will show you the positions of the heirlooms. The Shee Vaneer/Venath Shrine is probably harder, as you don't have Camera yet.
When I first walked in #1 I immediately went back up the elevator
eri lmao
I totally agree with your number 1. It was the only shrine I needed external help and until today, I don't really get it. 😅
Yeah dude Thats the one puzzle i googled as well.... the logic for me makes no sense.
