Mayachin Shrine puzzle solution

Mayachin Shrine is a little bit of pinball and a little bit of tee-ball mixed together.

1. Hop across the gap using the rotating platform when you first enter Mayachin Shrine.

2. Ahead, you’ll see a switch and a crystal, and below, you’ll see a few construction parts, a couple targets, and a ramp. And there’s a giant ball rolling through the middle of it all. In the image below, we’ve labeled the stuff we’ll be using in the next steps to help clarify.

3. If you haven’t yet, stand on the switch to reveal a target on the left.

4. Go down to the lower level and head to the actuator (the thing sticking out of the ground next to where the ball rolls).

5. Grab a stake and place it horizontally into the actuator’s face — we need to attach a pole to the actuator, but you can’t attach one directly.

6. Place a pole onto the end of the stake to create a bat-like structure — kind of like a pinball flipper.

7. Head back up the stairs to the crystal and switch.

8. Wait for the ball to touch the second-to-last white tile, and hit the crystal.

9. Practice hitting the crystal and adjust your timing until the ball hits the target — which will reveal a target on the right side of the room and open the shrine’s exit on your lef.

10. Head down the stairs and turn to the right to find a hanging panel and a stake in the ground.

11. Grab the stake in the ground behind the hanging panel and flip it upside-down. Place it in the ceiling above the hanging panel.

12. Grab the hanging panel and rotate it so it’s laying flat. Attach the hanging panel to the stake to hold it up out of the way of the target button behind it.

13. Head back up to the top by the crystal and switch.

14. Hit the crystal to have the bat point towards Link and the crystal.

15. Wait for the ball to roll past your bat assembly and get just before the edge of the platform, then hit the crystal.

16. Practice your timing and keep trying until you hit the target on the right — opening a gate to your right.

17. Enter the newly opened room on your right to find a chest with an energizing elixir.

18. Turn around and head towards the exit to collect your Light of Blessing.
