Yansamin Shrine (Proving Grounds: Low Gravity)

Yansamin Shrine is a Proving Grounds shrine. You enter with only the gear it supplies and must clear the trial to reach the terminal. The trial is called Proving Grounds: Low Gravity. It sits in East Necluda Sky on the sky islands, about 61 map units from Fort Hateno.

How to find it

Yansamin Shrine is at map coordinates 2350, -1782 (height 1489), inside the Zonaite Forge Island, a large floating structure in the East Necluda Sky. Ways in:

  • Wear the Zora Armor (from the Restoring the Zora Armor quest), light the bonfire on the southeast edge of the Phalian Highlands and wait for rain so the waterfall reaches the ground, then climb it. A Soldier Construct guards the platform at the top. Use the rockets there to reach the tall structure and glide in.
  • Alternatively, use the rockets on the small floating platforms near Ukoojisi Shrine for lift, or build a glider from the Mount Lanayru Skyview Tower and fly to the island northeast.

Inside, activate the forge (examine the green runes or the Dragon Ring at the base), ride the hot air grates to the top and skydive down the hole, dodging lasers. The shrine is on the south side of the room at the bottom.

Solution

Enter with no gear

You are stripped of all your equipment, and gravity is lowered, so every jump carries you far. The entry hall supplies a Wooden Stick (or Sturdy Wooden Stick or Gnarled Wooden Stick, depending on your progress), a Long Stick and an Old Wooden Shield. Defeating every enemy returns your gear. Walk through the arch and down the long stair into the arena.

Defeat the Soldier Constructs

Eight Constructs guard the platforms: one Captain Construct I, two Soldier Construct IIs and several Soldier Construct Is. Dodge and counterattack their swings, and use the weapons they drop (swords, hammers, reapers).

Pick up what they drop

Defeating a Construct drops its weapon, such as a Captain II Blade, Spiked-Iron-Ball Hammer or Soldier Reaper. Equip whatever is closest; the weapons break quickly so keep swapping.

Glide across the gaps

Between platforms, use the low gravity to jump across, and the fan, pistons, moving platforms, rockets and hover stones along the route to reach the next section.

Open the chest and take the Light

Once all enemies are down, the gate opens. Behind it open the chest for a Large Zonaite, then examine the terminal to claim the Light of Blessing.
