Marakuguc Shrine Walkthrough
The trial presented by Marakuguc Shrine is known as Wheeled Wonders. You will be using vehicles to fix broken bridges to solve the puzzle of this shrine.
1. At the start of the shrine, there is a gap with a broken bridge. Pick up the bridge with Ultrahand and attach it to the other end to fix it.
2. Cross the bridge to find a strange vehicle with only two wheels. Pick up the vehicle and attach it to the end of the broken bridge.
3. Hit the vehicle to activate it. It will run across the lava bed, erecting the bridge. Use the bridge to cover the lava-filled gap.
4. In the next area, pick up two vehicles and attach them with Ultrahand to create a four-wheeler.
5. Climb on top of the vehicle and hit it. This will activate the vehicle and it will take you across the lava bed.
6. Turn right to find a meshed ledge above you. Use the Ascend ability to reach the next area.
7. This area has a construct enemy that you must defeat.
8. Pick up a meshed structure from the top left corner of the room and attach it to the vehicle. Make sure to rotate it in an inclined and upside-down position (see picture for reference).
9. Place the bridged vehicle in the top right corner of the room to access the treasure chest. Open the treasure chest to obtain a Mighty Construct Bow.
10. Remove the meshed structure and rotate it sideways. Attach it to the front of the vehicle once more to create a tractor (picture for reference).
11. Place the vehicle in a straight line and hit to activate it. This way it will push most of the spheres down the holes.
12. As soon as a sphere enters the orange receptacle, the final puzzle will be completed, and the altar room’s door will open.
13. Enter the altar room and interact with Rauru and Sonia’s statues to finish the trial. They will grant you a Light of Blessing as a reward that you can use to either upgrade your stamina or health.
