Start the Right Arm Depot Puzzle in Tears of the Kingdom

To get things going, you’ll need to interact with the hand and wait for the cutscene to play out of the first entrance door closing, a new one opening somewhere else, and the Construct’s right arm dropping down in front of you. When looking around the room, you’ll notice a Zonai wheel ramp to the side of Link. 

The job from here on will be to get the body part up the ramp. All you need to do is set it down and let the ramp do the work. Once you’ve set it on the track and it starts moving towards the top section, you can follow it up the tracks and get ready for the next step, getting it across the room without it falling to the ground.

When you’ve reached the top, you’ll see an electrified beam with a little lip that joins the platform you’re on and the one you need to get to with the body part.

How to Get Construct’s Right Arm To the Other Side

To get the right arm across the room without dropping, you’ll need to use the materials around you and Ultrahand them to the box that contains the arm in it. The method I used, I took two wheels and attached them to the box at an angle, making sure the box rested well on both sides of the beam and stayed balanced all the way to the other end.

Below is an example of the angle at which I connect the two wheels to the box. I made certain the wheels were on the end of the lip, while the box was the counterweight on the opposite side of the beam. Once you’ve perfectly mounted it on the charged beam, make sure you are standing well clear of the beam and take out your bow. 

Shoot the device and watch it rail down the beam to the other end, where you’ll do the final part of the puzzle. You can jump off the ledge and glide to the other side, where there is a ladder to climb up. Now, pick the arm up and carry it to the next room, where you’ll see some Zonai Devices laid on the ground.

Getting the Construct’s Right Arm Pass Enemies

The task is to get the Construct part past the goon squad at the bottom of the stairs. At the bottom, you’ll see a Boss Bokoblin and his team of Bokoblin walking around. You can pass them without having to engage in battle.

There is a steering device, wheels, and stone platforms for you to make a vehicle. You can build one of two vehicles. You can either:

  1. Attach the wheels and steering device to the Construct box you’re transporting, using it as the vehicle itself
  2. Attach the wheels and steering device to a stone platform, and attach the box to the platform

The former is a quicker method, while the latter will allow you to go into battle with Link. The Bokoblins will struggle to get on the platform, giving you an upper hand. I used the stone platform method, as I treated the right arm as a package that needed to be delivered pronto. 

After you’ve completed your build, all that’s left is to drive back to the Construct Factory, detach the arm, and insert it in the correct slot. This section of the mission is now officially complete.
