The Tears of the Kingdom Ishodag Shrine might blow you away if you aren’t careful. Luckily, we’re here with a step-by-step guide to ‘The Windy Device’ shrine to help you out so you solves the puzzles quickly and can keep powering through The Legend of Zelda TotK.

If you’ve just started to explore the Zelda Tears of the Kingdom map, the Tears of the Kingdom Ishodag Shrine might be one of the first you come across. It’s also relatively near a Tears of the Kingdom Skyview Tower, so it’s one of the more accessible Shrines in TotK, too.

Tears of the Kingdom Ishodag Shrine puzzle solution and walkthrough

Near the entrance of the first room, you’ll see a Zonai Fan and a ledge in front of you. Take the fan and place it next to the ledge, with the fan blades facing upwards. Hit the fan to turn it on, and jump on it with your paraglider to fly up to the ledge. Proceed to the next room.

In this room you’ll find another fan and a rectangular piece of wood. Attach the fan to the end of the wood using Tears of the Kingdom Ultrahand to create a makeshift raft. Place the raft in the water ahead and hit the fan to turn it on and sail to the other side.

On the other side, take one of the fans and turn your attention to the seesaw on the right. Using Ultrahand again, attach the fan to the bottom of the seesaw on the left-hand side. Turn it on, and the fan will push the seesaw upwards until it sits horizontally. Use your Tears of the Kingdom Ascend ability to climb through the seesaw and open the treasure chest you find up there to receive an opal.

Jump down and return to the centre of the room. You’ll see a small platform leading up to the end of the Shrine. Retrieve your fan from the seesaw and attach it to the bottom of the platform along with the other fan you’ll find in this room. Jump on top of the platform and hit it with a melee weapon to activate the fans. Simply ride the platform and jump off when you reach the top. Now just activate the Shrine in front of you to get a Light of Blessing you can put towards your next heart container or stamina.
