Link has quite a collection of shrines to uncover in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. Maoikes Shrine in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is just one of them. This one is a Rauru’s Blessing shrine, meaning there is no puzzle inside the shrine to solve, however, getting to it is a whole different story. Hidden deep inside the depths of a cave in Lanayru Wetlands, a treacherous way is upon you to reach the shrine. This guide will show you how to find the Maoikes Shrine in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.
Tears of the Kingdom: Maoikes Shrine Location
Bone Pond cave is the home to Maoikes Shrine in the Lanayru Wetlands. This location is just southwest of Upland Zorana Skyview Tower. The entrance to the cave is located at 2254,0098, 0136 coordinates. You will see a gigantic skull on the top of the mountain. This is your clue.
Maoikes Shrine in Tears of the Kingdom Walkthrough
There are two ways to get to the Maoikes Shrine. An easy way is to just glide into the cave and the shrine. The second one is full of different monsters that Tears of the Kingdom throw at you.
You will be able to glide up until you reach the giant skull. Once at the top, enter the cave through the skull. Once inside, simply dive down into the depths of the cave to find the Maoikes Shrine in Tears of the Kingdom. Interact with the green crystal to enter the shrine, and in the middle of the platform waits a chest with a Diamond inside. Proceed forward to receive the Light of Blessing, which you can then use to upgrade your health or stamina.
If you want to test your battle skills, you can go around the mountain, entering the enemy camp before you get to the Maoikes Shrine. At the entrance of the cave, there will be an Armored Bokoblin guarding it. To slay the guard, use bomb flowers. Once this is done, proceed deeper down the cave to reach a group of Bokoblins and Boss Bokoblin. Moreover, there is a cage with a Hylian in it.
