Usazum Shrine Walkthrough
Usazum shrine belongs to the crystal shrine category in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. These shrines are partially activated, and you need to find their green crystals to activate them and enter them to obtain Rauru’s Blessing.
1. Interact with Usazum Shrine’s entrance to activate a fast travel point and start The Satori Mountain Crystal shrine quest.
2. Follow the green light originating from the shrine, which leads you to a cave northwest of the shrine’s location.
3. This cave is called Satori Mountain Foothill Cave, and it houses a red Hinox. This monster is wearing the green crystal around its neck like a necklace.
4. This enemy is not that difficult if you know how to beat it. Aim at its only eye to stun it. You can also use Keese Wings or Eyeballs and attach them to your arrows for precise strikes.
5. Once Hinox is stunned, hit its feet to deal massive damage. It will be killed before you know it.
6. Pick up the green crystal with Ultrahand and return it back to the Usazum Shrine’s entrance. The shrine will open and now you can enter it. It will also complete the crystal quest for the shrine.
7. As this is a blessing shrine, there is no combat challenge or puzzle associated with it. Open the treasure chest to obtain a Strong Zonaite Sword.
8. Interact with Rauru and Sonia’s statues to complete the shrine and earn a Light of Blessing as a reward. Make sure to use the four Lights of Blessing to either increase your health or stamina wheel.
