On the map screen press Y and choose shrine

Has anyone done the tower north of Zora's domain? It's crawling with guardians and I can't figure out how to get past them. it's always raining so can't just climb up the cliffs.

Why the fuck am I at work again
Yea it's annoying because you can't climb, nor can you use a torch and using a sword means you can get struck by lightning meaning you are limited a lot. And ou can't change the time of day unless you are resting for which you need access to a bed. Not to mention framerate becomes more unstable.

What a joke.
And its not like they even detail the controls in the menu. You have to fucking learn them just for them to appear under..lol.."ability controls". Dodge is an ability..smh.
I think it is because that shrine is in a specific area that I missed initially. Now that I'm 20+ hours in with 10 shrines completed, I just learned those moves recently. I never saw a hint of it anywhere else.
Got stuck on one shrine, gonna go back later when I can have a fresh perspective. Had lots of really fun adventures today (including sneaking past a sleeping giant Moblin chieftain). The mountains in the Goron domain is really fucking desolate. Almost no enemies, but just trying to climb stuff can kill you if you're reckless. I managed to get to the top of one of the mountain ranges and got to the Wasteland Tower (apt name for the region). Getting to the tower was fun. Climbing the tower was intense when I realized after starting that there was no early ledge and I had to do a jump onto an external rock formation to recover stamina. Felt great when I got to the top. Fuck.
The shrine puzzles are really something. Everything about this game screams quality. I can't believe I'm hours into a Zelda game and I haven't been to a single dungeon and.... I don't even care? Wow.

What is the best way to find Shrines? I find them very annoying to search for and that scanner is annoying as all hell. Is there a way to know how many are in one area to make sure you get them all before moving on? I'm just finding that they're super important but extremely annoying to find.
Also how do you get into the shrine that's
Also the other shrine I am having issue with is the one with the cursed statue gaze
Finally, the memories you have to find, once again I'm just supposed to search out these spots by running around and hoping I find it?
While I don't want my hand held, I find the navigation in this game to be very annoying.
Also how do you get into the shrine that's
across from the stables? It has all those spikes around it and I haven't found anything that will get me through
Also the other shrine I am having issue with is the one with the cursed statue gaze
where you shoot the eys of the statue at night and the shrine appeared, it is that one where the room keeps spinning in a circle

Climb the region's tower or a really high point anywhere you are. Look around for anything emitting orange light, check with with your slate viewer and pin it if it's a shrine.

Thanks for this! I saw the goop on the arch and thought I couldn't climb it... D'oh!
Burn the thorns with fire (fire arrow, bomb arrow, whatever).
First, use your magnet rune to pull all of those spiked balls out of the hamster wheel and toss them into the abyss so you don't have to deal with them. Then just stand at the bottom and wait for the platform to rotate so it "picks you up" and you can ride it higher. Jump from that to the gear, then look for the staircase bit rotating around. I basically jumped on that and slowly walked on its side along with the rotation so that I didn't have to come off it, I just kind of stayed on it like a log rolling down a river.
Doe no one mess around with the buttons to tey and figure out what you can do anymore? Firt thing I do is see what I can do with various buttons in different situations. Figured out how to dodge, parry, charge attacks, slow-mo, flury, and that you usuly drop items you are carrying when trying to sprint.
you should get that as a quest, and it'll put a yellow dot on your map
Well people complained about tutorials and hand holding to be fair.
Or drop in from above. Fire also works on ice blocks.
Wait, you can roll?
I also thought that this happend when I met with

Coming from Horizon and Witcher 3 on the Pro, the frame rate drops bother me more, seeing as I play almost exclusively while docked.

Figured that would be the answer.
No..i look at the control scheme in the menu and just assume it tells me everything you can do in the game..like every other modern game ever made. Instead you get the word "action" and buried inside another menu you have greyed out shit like "dodge" that only shows if you "learn" it.
Backflip, whatever.

I know this has probably been asked a bunch, but is there any crafting/cooking use for ore? I sold a couple opal and it made me wonder considering there's no allusion to what it can make under its description.

Its because the game is so enjoyable most of us are able to look past the technical issues. Hate to think what you would have been like in the pre-ps2 era.

You can use them to make
accessories and some are used for upgrades for your gear.

I climbed a mountain range that in any other open world game would signify the edge of the map because of how steep and desolate they were. But not this game. No, it sticks enemies and collectibles in an area where Skyrim would have been yelling at me to turn back because I've gone too far.
Just got the
after a long ardenous journey that involved finding that
, heading north afterwards, climbing a mountain, going North even further (does anyone know what that
does?), then going West and ending up in the
. Waited until night and then ran all the way to
. From there I went to the
and found the guy with the clothes. None of the territory was charted.
This game...
EDIT:
I also found an area where the game told me I couldn't go any further
Gerudo clothes
white steed
giant painting on that mountain side with the Shrine-looking lock in its center
Gerudo desert
Gerudo City
Oasis
This game...

Yeah, they should have made come up with a solution for that. Maybe let stamina drain faster when climbing wet rocks but at least let us just climb up. This doesn't add anything but annoyance.

Where do you find raw gourmet meat? Some guy buys it for 100 rupees a pop.

I think bucks/elk can drop them.
You can get it from wild wolves.

they're sooooo good. I've gotten stuck on a number of them, and then the solution just "clicks" and it all comes together and I get such a nice feeling.
It's kind of funny (maybe even a little sad?) that the "proper" dungeon puzzle I've done (Ruta) was pretty boring compared to the shrines I've done. I like the Portal test champion experience, it works really well for Zelda, which I never would have guesses.
I got some from a big elk that Wolf Link killed on his "MUST slaughter of all wild life" goal in life

Not even taking the time to read the thread. Just popping in to say that deflecting laser beams back at guardians is the most satisfying thing ever, and it doesn't even matter how easy it is to do. Every single time I do it with my shitty wooden shield when a miss would one shot me makes me feel boss as fuck, and I've only missed twice so far. I thought it was going to end up being harder to kill the walking around ones, but nope. Almost feels like cheating.

Who buys raw meat for 100 rupes? Do you know the location?
Turn the pins into a stamp on the map screen.

Holy shit I just did the modest test of strength shrine (Muwo Jeem Shrine) with weapons that did 10 damage or under. I buffed my defense and had to keep throwing bombs at the guardian when it was charging up it's laser for it's final attack. It wasn't worth it to keep trying to evade his beams and then attack him with a slow sledgehammer so I just focused on dodging the beams by running in a straight line from one side of the room to another. I was totally under-equipped but still managed to do it 
I only have 4 hearts so when I did get hit by a beam, it put me to half a heart. It was a good thing I had three pages of food made
