Quest Overview
Captain Teake of the Gerudo guard is setting up an advanced training ground in the desert outside Gerudo Town. She asks Link to help design and build three combat obstacle courses using Zonai devices, wooden platforms, and archery targets. Each course tests a different skill — melee combat, ranged accuracy, and mobility. Completing the build unlocks the courses for Link to use.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough
1
Build the Melee Course
Use Ultrahand to place wooden dummies, stone barriers, and Zonai spring platforms in the marked arena. The course must include at least 6 targets and 2 obstacles per Teake's specifications.
2
Build the Archery Range
Set up moving targets using Zonai rails and platforms. Place 8 bullseye targets at varying distances and heights. Teake tests the range by shooting — all targets must be reachable from the firing line.
3
Build the Mobility Course
Create a parkour-style course using Zonai platforms, springs, and fans. The course must go from ground level to a platform 30 meters up. Teake's soldiers test it — if anyone falls, adjust the platform spacing.
