Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom players can find the Gasas Shrine (Well-Timed Cuts) in the western section of the new Hyrule map. It's not too far south of Rito Village/Tabantha Frontier, and it's pretty much directly north of Gerudo Highlands and west of Lookout Landing, where players first start their journey after completing the Great Sky Island tutorial shrines.

The coordinates for the Gasas Shrine are roughly -4149, 0100, 0040. Since the shrine is out in the open and not hidden within a cave like some other shrines in TotK, reaching it should be fairly simple for most. However, solving the Gasas Shrine's puzzles will take a little more effort. This guide will show players how to get through the shrine to claim yet another Light of Blessing.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Gasas Shrine Solution (Well Timed Cut)

Upon entering the Gasas Shrine, Link will be greeted with a cube suspended in the air by a piece of rope. Go ahead and pull out a bow and shoot the string with an arrow to bring the cube down to the floor. Hop onto the cube to reach the next section.

Walk up the staircase and use Link's new Ultrahand ability to pick the second cube up and then lift it towards the edge of the upper platform. Leave it for a few seconds, bring it back down, and then switch over to the Recall skill. Using this skill on the cube will make it return to the upper platform so Link can climb on it to reach the next area.

For this next section, Tears of the Kingdom players will find two identical rectangular-shaped platforms that can be moved with Ultrahand. Stick the two pieces together to create a bridge and then use that bridge to cross the gap.

Once players cross the gap with their bridge, look to the right to see a treasure chest suspended. If players shoot the rope, the chest will fall into the chasm; however, it will return to its original position, so there's no need to worry about messing anything up here. In order to grab the chest, players will first need to swing the chest with Ultrahand and then shoot the rope with an arrow to make the chest land on the platform (either the one in front of it or behind it). The chest has a Large Zonai Charge inside.

Next, to get the key needed to open the locked door, players should look at the area directly opposite the first chest. A second chest will be floating high above a chasm. There are two ways to go about this.

The first way is to move the cube underneath the chest and then use Recall before hitting the chest down. This will make the chest fall safely on the cube, but players will need to be fast to use Ultrahand to pick it up before the cube shifts. Another way to get the chest to fall safely down is to attach the cube to the end of the long bridge we made earlier. Place the new "bridge with a cube" structure underneath the chest so it falls on the side without the cube.

Unlock the door with the newly acquired key to find a hole in the floor that needs to be filled with a large ball.

Look to the right to find the ball hanging by a string. An easy way to grab it is to first use Recall on it, cut the rope with an arrow, and then quickly pick the ball up with Ultrahand. Carry it to the recess on the floor to finish the Gasas Shrine.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available for the Nintendo Switch.
