Gikaku Shrine and Sky Mine Crystal Walkthrough

Gikaku Shrine is a walk in the park… although the park is the Sky Mines in Akkala Sea Sky, and the walk is more about avoiding robots that try to kill you as you paraglide back and forth.

1. Activate the Gikaku Shrine base, then go to the stone circle on the southwest spoke of the island to get the Heaven my sigil and activate the catapult in the inner circle of the island.

2. Catapult to the next island, northeast of the shrine. Float down to safety and take out the Construct with a bow and missile darts.

3. Jump aboard the floating block where the Construct landed and then use Ultra convenient to mount missiles aloft for a vertical boost. Activating the missiles should blow you up above all visible islands.

4. After the hover block comes to a stop, face southwest and paraglide to the small island with a cluster of luminescent rocks. The shrine beam should lead you straight to the crystal, which is slightly obscured by all the glowing blue ore.

5. Grab the crystal and approach the north-northwest edge of the island – you should see the shrine below you. Throw the green crystal off the ledge and slide down to the original island. Carry the crystal to the shrine.
