This new shrine quest in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom will ask you to find a green crystal in order to activate the temple and receive Rauru’s Blessing. Find the video walkthrough above as well as the written and illustrated version below.
Where to find the Iqa Taq shrine?
In the region of Tabanta Bordersto the west of the map, just below the Piaf Village, you will find an unactivated shrine base. By addressing the latter, a puzzle will then be triggered, asking you to find a green crystal. This one is located in the Oriolo Cratera hole just in front of the shrine.
How to complete it?
- Descend into the crater using your Paraglider,
- Face the skeletons and the two Gastrolikes, without forgetting to collect the various chests,
- You will thus have the freedom to take the green crystal with Emprise: your goal is to bring it back to the surface,
- Unfortunately, it is impossible to infiltrate with such an object: you must first pass it through the hole,
- We have tried several techniques since there is not just one solution, but that of Spring seems to be the best,
- Note that you have two missiles available in the cave but it is difficult to fix them on the crystal to aim at the top of the ceiling,
- So take the Spring Soneau Artifact, place it just below the hole and put the crystal on top,
- By hitting the spring, the crystal will fly off and normally stay on the surface,
- Re-use the spring to propel yourself in turn then bring the crystal back to the base,
- The shrine will activate and you won’t have to do anything inside except collect Rauru’s Blessing, a large battery.
