How to Use Vow of Mineru, Sage of Spirit

Press A to Ride Mineru's Construct

You can ride Mineru's Construct and control both of its arms to be used in combat. Keep in mind that it will drain your batteries as you move, but will replenish when you're not moving. You can still fire arrows while on the construct, but having to aim and fire your bow while controlling the construct might overwhelm you!

Getting hit while riding the construct will still reduce Link's hearts. This also applies on being hit and affected by Gloom. Be sure to avoid attacks and stockpile on heart-recovering, and heart-restoring dishes still!

How to Get More Energy Cells and Increase Energy

Attach Materials to the Construct

You can attach materials like Zonai Devices to the left arm, right arm, and at the back of Mineru's Contruct, allowing you to have a total of three materials attached.

Attached Zonai devices will expire after a certain amout of usage. Stock up on devices to make sure your Mech Construct constantly obliterates foes that stand in your way!

Zelda Tears of the Kingdom TotK - Vow of Mineru Key Key Items Menu

You can use the Vow of Mineru, Sage of Spirit to summon or dismiss Mineru's Construct from the Key Items Menu. The construct will accompany you while exploring and aid you in battle when you're not riding it.

Will Be Summoned By Default

The Construct will be summoned by default upon the acquisition of the vow. You can only dismiss it in your inventory using the same process above.

Does Not Appear in Settlements

Like other Vows, Mineru's Construct will not show up when you are in settlements. This means that you should first leave any settlement and head into an open world area in order for Mineru's Construct to show up and aid you.

How to Upgrade Vow of Mineru

Solemn Vow of Mineru

You can exchange 4 Sage's Wills to any goddess statues found across Hyrule to upgrade the Vow of Mineru into the Solemn Vow of Mineru, which increases the sage's attack power.

Upgrading the vows does not increase the durability of the attached materials nor gain any additional effects. This might be a little underwhelming for most, but at least they get stronger in fights!

Fun Fact: If you use a rocket on Mineru's arms, they just fire, as if you were using a one use cannon. Very inefficient unless you plan on blowing up far away stuff.
