You can trigger this Shrine Quest by finding either Rakakudaj Shrine or the crystal out in the world in the Gerudo Canyon. Unlocking the shrine will reward you with a Light of Blessing and a MightyZonaite Longswordweapon, which can be further enhanced with fusion. To get started, head on over to the Gerudo Canyon.
The Gerudo Canyon Crystal Location
For the sake of this guide, we havestarted by the shrineand then gone to find the crystal.
you’re able to reach it on foot as you naturallyapproach the Gerudo Valley from Hyrule Field, or if you missed it on your first way in, you can use theGerudo Canyon Skyview Towerto launch yourself into the air and glide over to it.
Finding theshrine first is a good call,but it doesn’t matter too much if you happen to find the crystal beforehand. Regardless of how you approach, the line guiding you to the goal will always be there until you deliver the crystal.
The exact coordinates for the shrine are-2036, -1854, 0065
How To Unlock Rakakudaj Shrine
After you trigger the quest, you’ll see the light coming from the shrine guiding you to thesouth, downstream. The whole canyon is running with water, which is going to make it difficult totransport the crystal on footwhen you reach it.
To reach the crystal,simply head downstream.As you pass over two mini waterfalls, you’ll see the beam from the shrine goesdirectly into the ground.
The crystal is at these exact coordinates -1899, -2343, -0001
Don’t worry about this, and continuefollowing the river down. Eventually, you’ll see the trail once again. It leads you past a Korok trying to find its friend.
You can complete this as part of moving the crystal sincethey are both going the same way.Grab the crystal first and feel free to pick up the Korok as you go back towards the shrine.
Pick up the crystal and stop when you come tothree grey rocks pointing out the ground.Next to this, you will find two slabs that have Zonai wheels attached to them.
One of these slabs has a driving controller, so you shoulduse this to transport the crystaland build yourself a vehicle.
Use Ultrahand and position the slab withtwo wheels in front of you, and whack the other slab withfour wheels onto the frontof the first one.
Alternatively, feel free to use Ultrahand to manually move the crystal all the way back to the shrine.
All you need to do israise it above the slight waterfallsand find a platform for it to rest on while you pick it up and move up the path towards the shrine.
With your trusty six-wheeled vehicle, you’re able to simply drive upstream and up these slight inclines in the terrain with ease. Make sure youpick up the Korok on the wayto drop it off by its friend.
Continue up the path until your vehicle gives up or you run out of Zonai energy. Neither of these should happen, but if they do you canuse Ultrahand to move the crystalthe rest of the way.
Deliver the crystal toactivate Rakakudaj Shrine. As this was a crystal shrine quest, you will unlock aRauru’s Blessing.
Go on in to claim the chest reward, which is aMighty Zonaite Longsword. Head up the stairs and claim yet another Light of Blessing.
