ALegend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomplayer has discovered a clever trick that makes solving Korok rock puzzles way easier.The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomwas just released in May, but many players are coming across unique tricks and solutions to the many puzzles across Hyrule, but this Korok strategy could help on more than one occasion.
BecauseTears of the Kingdomintroduced building and the Fuse mechanic to theZeldafranchise, many long-time fans have explored the possibilities in the game.

Reddit user RobBellOriginal recently shared aLegend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomclip in which they’re approaching one of the many stone puzzles associated with the infamous Korok Seed grind. Walking up to a nearly completed circle of stones, the player swaps their stone mallet with a sword before scrolling back over to the prior weapon to drop it on the ground. Upon landing on the stone beneath Link, the player uses theUltrahand ability introduced withTears of the Kingdomon the stone mallet to move the stone in line with the others that create the circle, and its completion fittingly summons a Korok that rewards the protagonist with one of the seeds.
Although manyLegend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomplayers may complete these stone Korok puzzles by scrounging the area for a rock, there’s a high likelihood that they can make a weapon similar to the one used in RobBellOriginal’s video. BecauseTears of the Kingdomplayers can make such stone equipment fairly early on in the Switch game, the materials should be fairly easy to find, though a stone will be required either way. As this weapon doubles as a rock that can be used for theseTears of the KingdomKorokpuzzles, players may consider carrying one in case there aren’t many stones near the next one.
According to RobBellOriginal, their clip was meant to be a test in order to prove the concept of solving the stone Korok puzzle in such a unique way, serendipitously rewarding their creativity on the first try. AlthoughBreath of the Wildhad other Korok Seedslocked behind stone challenges that could have worked with RobBellOriginal’s technique if the game had Ultrahand, it’s currently unclear if the method can be applied to other activities related to the Koroks.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomis available now for Nintendo Switch.
