How Do You Build a Mech in Tears of the Kingdom
To build a mech in Tears of the Kingdom, you have to use the Ultrahand ability to put together various materials and Zonai Devices. It’s recommended that you use metal materials to build the mech to ensure it has the Armored Core or Gundam feel to it.
As can be seen in this video clip, players have already cracked the code to create extraordinary mechs. One of the newest abilities that Link can use in Tears of the Kingdom is the Ultrahand ability, which allows the player to stick together various materials and Zonai Devices to create something brand new. While most players have been using this ability to create cars or planes, others have taken it a step further.
By gathering the right combination of abilities, it’s possible to create a mech in Tears of the Kingdom. What’s more is that it’s possible to ensure that not only does the mech move around, but it’s also possible to get inside it by using the Ascend ability. Once inside, by using a steering stick or wheel, it’s possible to control the mech to get from one place to another.
Oh, did you think we were done? If all of this wasn’t enough, it’s also possible to equip the mechs with Zonai weapons. Yes, we’re talking laser cannons or any other weapon that you might fancy. With it, you’ll be able to take out some of the most dangerous enemies in the wild with absolute ease.
What Types of Mechs Can You Build in Tears of the Kingdom
Now, the thing about building just about anything in Tears of the Kingdom is that your creation can differ from that of someone else. Therefore, you can potentially use your imagination to build all sorts of different types of mechs, even those that you might potentially recognize from other series.
Some of the different types of mechs players have created already are:
- A Pacific Rim inspired robot, equipped with laser cannons
- A Gundam based mech that you can climb on and control
One thing to keep in mind when making your mech, however, is that what type of weapons you use also matters. For example, laser cannons seem to be the most efficient and easy to use. However, if you opt to put shoulder cannons on your mech, then there’s a high possibility that your mech might blow itself up.
