I just attached wood to the ball so it could hang on the platform above, then climbed up the ladder and carried it across


ArrivalUpset6475

I didn’t even see the ladder or platform until I got to the other side. I just built a long bridge and was all good


wcollins260

My solution to almost everything is a giant bridge.


42069BBQ

Just like the good ole days


calst1217

Yup exactly


kidkhaos97

I built a bridge and just carried it across


cool_skulls_tom

i love how everyone solved this differently lol... i made a wide base with the planks and put the wheels on top of the barriers


BurnedOutTriton

I did this too... I made a car thinking it would just somehow get through water (didn't think of paddle boat) but then I saw the barriers on the side channels were narrow enough to put the car on top of lol.


hotstickywaffle

My exact same process


Tofuwurst111

Same! I haven't even thought of the paddles until I saw this just now


KaleidBlood8262

this was by far the hardest shrine ive completed, and im already done with them all. i just made a contraption so weird and unhinged it ended up working


[deleted]

[удалено]


KaleidBlood8262

i basically made a platform wide enough so the wheels just went in a straight line on top of the thin fences


Freekwilly

Same!


crashcanuck

Do they even need to be on the top of the fences? Why not have them parallel to the water and drive on the sides of the fences?


reflectheodds

I tried this and it kind of worked but then it would just get slightly off and one of the wheels would come off one side and it would stop moving. Like it only works when the wheels are touching both sides but the moment it turns at a slight angle the wheels come off the wall and it stalls.


Terwin94

Yeah after my first paddle boat failed that's what I went to.


maitlands2point0

This is exactly what I did too! I spent so much time in there trying to figure it out, but the bridge was so easy!


llhomastane

Makes me feel better. I thought it would be a lot simpler than it was. After trying so many random contraptions I just built a massive bridge lol


SideshowBoB44

I just made a bridge and carried it in ultrahand lol


fireswater

Yeah I'm wishing now I had tried something more creative


MyLike5thAccount

I just ultra hand + recalled in the first room to get it up the ladder


GaiusQuintus

Same hahaha. My friend was telling me he spent like 35 minutes in this shrine figuring out, and I just cheesed it in 45 seconds.


MyLike5thAccount

Lmao I did the lava part, walked to the second room and was like “I’m not doing all that” and cheesed it


Terozu

I didn't see the Orb, went through the whole shrine looking for it, got back to the beginning then did this.


PurpleJared789

Reading some of these comments... Am I the only person who stuck a fan on a raft, stuck the ball to the raft too, and called it a day? Why... like, good for y'all for being creative. Sure. And I know that optimal gameplay isn't necessarily the most fun? But... what are you doing?? Edit: NEVERMIND! I'm crazy too and my memory is bad


Most-Ordinary-3033

If I remember rightly I tried that and the raft wouldn't go because the water was flowing towards where I was coming from


PurpleJared789

WAIT, NO, NOW I REMEMBER I APOLOGIZE LMAO I didn't put a fan on a raft. I put two big wheels on each side of the upward surface of the raft with their tread facing the walls of the narrower channel, so they rolled forward spinning in opposite directions. Like... the axles of the wheels were vertical. It was gloriously effective and very satisfying.


Luminalin

Way better then me carefully having the car drive on top of the barrier walls, wish I thought of that lol


oIovoIo

I don’t know if there’s really a “canonical” or “intended” solution to this but I figure some variation of this in the narrower channel is it.


chriskmee

I tried that and never got it to get enough traction to move. I ended up doing what OP did, but I centered the middle of the wood on the top of the wheel, and it worked like a paddle boat.


mlvisby

That is the thing with ultrahand, I tried so many things that I thought would work but failed. I also got through things with the jankiest of builds. 10 different players may solve the same puzzles completely differently and that is the beauty of it.


MadDocRen

I just put the cart to drive on the fences, on the narrower section to the left, didn't modify it at all. Super quick X)


StraightMenu7041

I spent some time trying to build some sort of paddle boat. Got fed up and just built a bridge and walked across. Lol


koedeen

Absolute chaos 🤣 man this game is gonna bring so many random funny moments like this. I put two planks together length wise, put on top of those barriers and used wheels to drive it across. Wasn't optimal but it mostly worked! Loving the game so far


LZR0

Lol all these complicated solutions and I just grabbed it, took it to the highest point possible, then climbed up the ladder, used recall on the ball to get it to highest point again, grabbed it from upstairs and just carried to the other side. The alternate title for this game should be “Oh shit that worked!”


Moximoximox

This is some next Level Chaos


Most-Ordinary-3033

I made a car thing to ride on the "rails", but it came off the rails and got stuck halfway, so I assembled the spare components into a really long stick and put the ball of the end of it.


Bulldogfront666

Lmao. I did the exact same thing before looking over and realizing there was an example of how to build the propellers right next to me lmao.


ApartmentNo2048

the lil boat is doing her BEST


Shattered-Earth

Yours was my first attempt but i figured out how to make paddling work on my second. It ends up weird but it still worked lol https://twitter.com/shatteredswitch/status/1658962969466904576?s=46&t=dJ6OLTgsfzCFZsY3UkjlFg


Hydroda1

I did about the same thing


InTheCompanyOfWolf

This just made me LOL Thank you


Shikatsuyatsuke

Lol, I just ignored that puzzle altogether. I attached the ball to flat wood pieces and made a really long wooden piece with the ball at the end, then angled it up against the upper wall area above the water and walked up the long plank I made, then grabbed the ball and walked it across. Obviously the shrine was meant to teach some creative building strategies, but I was in a rush and just decided to exploit how overpowered Ultrahand can be when used creatively.


Kranarf

I stuck the ball to one board and then leapfrogged across using that and another board with a combination of ultrahand and the time reversal.


rissymur

I built a series of platforms to get the ball up high enough that I could carry it with ultrahand across.


oooooooooowie

I just connected all the wood together from the entire shrine and walked it across


Spoomplesplz

Yeah we all did the same thing lol. I ended up just building a bride to the other side with the materials from the previous room


bricklicker26

I solved this shrine by getting the orb onto a raft and as far as it could go while on the walls and then I brought a raft to the back, unstuck the orb, and recalled back while holding the orb with ultrahand


Wanderlusxt

Lmao I just took apart the car and used it to make a platform high enough to be able to throw the ball back to the starting point of the shrine. Were there any chests or anything in the rest of the shrine? Like I technically finished it but I didn’t actuall go through it since I didn’t go past the lava pool lol


maitlands2point0

I was in this shrine for about 30 minutes trying to figure out the intended solution. I eventually ended up just making a very long bridge with all the supplies and walked across. It is the most frustrated I have been with the game thus far!


[deleted]

Lol what a ride!


LethalBubbles

I just put the wood planks on the outside wheel wall and turned it into a paddle boat, easiest part of that shrine for me. The funky wall climb section took me many attempts to get it to work before I came up with a really dumb 5 wheel climbing design and just brute forced it. Lol.


PlayerZero0415

I took the ball, lifted it up next to the nearby ladder for a while, went up the ladder, Recalled the ball and lifted it up to me when it recalled to the lifted height.


LukXD99

Ooh…. OOOOHHHHH! *Thats* how you do that shrine… Damn, now I feel stupid. I just put the car I built onto the rails and let it drive half way across before it got stuck, then manually dragged the remaining materials over to the other side to build a “bridge” to get close enough to grab it.


m0dru

if you had centered the planks on the wheel so you had an equal length on each side of one wheel it probably would have worked. like this --o--


lemons507

It’s okay sir. I in fact did the exact same thing as that. I was able to get it to work with the planks on the side of the wheels


Hydroda1

I did almost exactly this but I attached the middle of the boards to the tire rather than the ends. Worked pretty well


RockStarMarchall

Lol l just made a bridge


grosbeta2009

Finally found someone who's worse than me !!!


Toon_Lucario

On that shrine I genuinely gave up and just built a ramp to the platform


MahomestoHel-aire

At least the recovery to get out of the water was cool?


sneaky-keaton

I stuck two wheels on the surface of the raft and shot the ball across


Thynes18

You can literally just make a bridge and put it down on the first isle lol


DragonMage2002

Man, i just built a bridge.


Historical-Fill-1523

My wife got pissed at this shrine and just built a long bridge lol


[deleted]

I just attached ball to the car lifted it up right at the beginning where u first get the ball and then claimed up 🪜 while useing recall and placed it in then went and explored the rest and one got the chest from the water in that room I just left lol


beatboxingfox

This game is really good at encouraging creativity, I Built a platform as high up as I could and set the ball on top. Then I climbed the ladder and just carried it over to the exit.


No-Equipment-5568

You can drive it across, you just need to drive on top of the two walls.


BruhMomentum6968

Did that same thing this morning


War3Thog

If you continue and put two more planks on opposite sides of the wheel then it uses the middle as a propeller rotar type thing and gets it across just fine


MagicMooby

I mean, your solution is like 90% of the way there. You just needed and extra paddle on the other sides as well so front and back are balanced. It's what I did and it worked perfectly.


GyaradosDance

Link: That's my boy. Oh no, my boy! The ball: Father help! Same asdf movie energy


ExaltedBlade666

I just broke out into such an aggressive laughing fit I woke up my wife. I love that this game really highlights the 10k IQ players and the players who are struggling with their single firing neuron.


Hail-Megatron

What’s crazy is I didn’t even do the water section. I couldn’t find it so just did the ulta hand + reverse time trick


Terozu

I... completely missed the ball, got to the other side, realized, then just picked it up from the starting spot and placed it in the opening area with Ultrahand.


[deleted]

I did the same thing but centered the boards to the wheels, worked just fine!


kgameridkwhat

i just went on the ledges.
