Zonai Devices/Gimmick Puzzle Points

Iron Rods/Rails

Iron Rods can be moved easily by using Ultrahand when hook and wooden Boards or logs are Building Blocks. If you can't rotate them well, use Ultrahand with the hooks directly in front of you.

Moving On Water

Sail + Log	Fan + Log

If a sail or Fan is down, you can combine it with a log to make a raft, which is useful for moving on the water. This is useful when moving on the water, so keep it in mind. Fan can be activated by hitting it with a weapon.

Floating Scaffolding

Floating Scaffolding can be moved by Ultrahand. By moving them alternately, they can climb to high places.

▲ By starting with the Fan on the bottom, Scaffolding can be raised to go up

Mine Cart

The Mine Cart moves when placed on rails and when combined with Zonai Devices' Fan, it can move from low to high.

▲ Fuse Mine Cart to Shield and Shield Surf, so you can also run on the rails. Shield Surf can be done by pressing ZL+A

Glider (Wing)

This gimmick is located near the shrine on the snowy mountain. When placed on the rail, the glider begins to descend. The distance varies depending on the position on the wing, and if you are in front of the wing, you can adjust the position of your fall as you descend rapidly. It disappears after about two minutes, so it cannot fly indefinitely.

Device Dispenser

The Device Dispenser, also known as the Zonai Gacha, can be found in several locations in Sky. When Materials such as Zonai Charge are inserted, Zonai Devices are randomly ejected.

Gear	Effects & Usage
Fan	Attach to Wing, Raft, and others to gain propulsion by Energy Cell consumption
Portable Pot	Can be used anywhere as a one-time use way to cook Food
Flame Emitter	Consumes Energy Cells to burst into flames and melt attacks, ice

Great Sky Island - Walkthrough Guide

Start The Main Quests

Sky is a tutorial throughout this area, where you will learn basic knowledge and controls that you can use throughout the game.

Learn About Food

In Sky, there are some snowy mountains that require Cold Resistance. In order to enter these mountains, you will need to wear cold protection or eat Cold-Resistant Food. At first, it is necessary to take measures with Food, so let's just learn the following Food Recipes.

Food	Material	Effect
Spicy Simmered Fruit	Spicy Pepper x2 Apple ×2	4 Hearts Recovery Cold Resistance Lv1 6:00
Spicy Sauteed Peppers	Spicy Pepper x4	4 Hearts Recovery Cold Resistance Lv1 10:00

Cooking Pots can be found in various locations, but the location closest to the Temple of Time is shown in the image. There is also a Spicy Pepper in the vicinity, so collect it.

Collect All Nearby Materials

Collect all materials you see, such as apples and mushrooms, because managing resources is an important element of the strategy, and running out of materials can lead to a pinch.

Defeat Construct To Obtain The Zonai Charge

Constructs drop an item called "Zonai Charge" when defeated. This is an item that can be used for the Device Dispenser (Zonai Gacha) described below, so try to collect as many of these as possible.

Ore Deposit Should Also Be Destroyed

Ore deposits located in the cave can be destroyed to obtain ore. It is not used for anything immediately, but it can be sold of a good amount of money, so it is a good way to make money in the early stages of the project.

Koroks Can Also Be Found In Many Places

If you have BotW, you know that Koroks or forest fairies are hidden all over the map. Finding them will give you a Korok Seed, an item that can be used to expand your Inventory, so look for them as much as possible.

How To Get To The Flux Construct Location & Strategy

How To Get There

Order	Step By Step Guide
	Map of where the Flux Construct is located
	Use scaffolding floating in the air Get the Fan from Zonai Devices at the Device Dispenser
	Set the Fan so that the wind is facing the opposite direction of travel and activate it
	When you get there, get off the island, and when you get close enough, you will be in a battle

How To Beat It

Remove The Different Colored Cores With Ultrahand

Blocks that look different are Construct's weak point. Pulling it with Ultrahand will cause the Construct to break apart, giving you a chance to attack the core.

There Are Three Patterns Of Forms

Flux Construct has three patterns it can morph to: the two-legged Guardian Stalk, the square block type, and the flat type shown in the video above.

Square Block Type Guide

As it approaches while rolling, take out its core with Ultrahand while running away so that it is not crushed. If you are inside, it is better to remove other blocks and aim for the core.

Flat-Type Capture

The flat type cuts and throws its own block. It will be damaged when hit, so avoid it while running sideways. After that, you can ride the fell part with a recall and get on the main unit. Then, it is okay if you take out the core with Ultrahand and attack.
