Video Guide

1. Grab Your Weapons

With this shrine being a Proving Grounds trial, you will not be allowed to use your own weapons or equipment, so you'll need to make do with what's available.

2. Defeat the Construct on the Platform

To your immediate right upon entering the chamber is a construct. Climb up from behind the platform and defeat them! Grab some materials too while you're at it.

3. Snag the Halberd

At this point, 2 constructs might reach you. One with a halberd and one with a shield. Focus on snagging the Halberd first by defeating the Construct.

4. Defeat the Shield Construct

Once you have the Halberd you can quite easily take out the Shield Construct without taking damage! Take their weapon and shield to protect yourself from the next construct.

You can take some of the materials lying around and Fuse them to your weapons to give extra damage!

5. Defeat the Shock Construct

The last construct for this floor throws shock attacks which can be very deadly. You can perform a sneakstrike on the construct in order to get the jump on them without taking damage!

6. Burn the Platform

Once the first floor is safe, use a Fire Fruit to burn the leaves on the wall to drop the platform.

7. Fuse the Shock Emitter

Fuse the Shock Emitter with your weapon of choice as this will be very useful later on!

8. Fuse Materials to Your Shield

Use what you have and Fuse Items to your shield to get ready for one of the more difficult constructs.

9. Stun the Construct

This is the most difficult of the Constructs and can pack quite a punch so be sure to use the Shock Emitter to stun it. Then, swap to a more powerful weapon to deal damage! Doing this quickly should allow you to keep it stun locked until you defeat it.

With the main one out of the way, turn your attention to the 2 constructs above you and defeat them with your arrows to to open the door!
