10 Best Items To Fuse To Mineru's Construct In Tears Of The Kingdom

Try out your fusion options on these powerful items.

Whether you want to ride on top of and manually control Mineru's Construct how the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom teaches, or you just want to let her fight alongside you as she pleases, you will still need to consider what you attach to her.

Mineru's damage isn't bad when there's nothing fused to her arms, but like fusing different monster parts to your weapons, you can make Mineru so much stronger if you keep an eye on what she's attached to. You will likely have to put in a bit of elbow grease if you want to attach some of the best items to Mineru's Construct regularly.

Navigating through Hyrule on Mineru's Construct isn't the fastest way to get around, but traversing through gloom-heavy areas like the Depths is certainly the safest way. However, you can make Mineru's Construct move slightly faster by attaching a fan to her back and regularly activating it to propel her forward.

This does eat up your battery, however, so you might want to make sure you have a fair few charges on you or that you've upgraded your battery more, lest you risk getting stranded in the middle of a gloom patch or in a fight while you wait for the Construct to recharge.

The biggest downfall of Mineru's Construct is that it can't climb, so if you want to go up ledges or cliff sides without circumnavigating halfway across the map, you'll need to attach a Zonai Rocket to her back. This rocket is for one-time use, so be careful when you attach and activate it, or else you'll need to hop down and drop another one of your portable rockets.

You can also use Mineru's Construct to get a bit of height when you want to paraglide by attaching a rocket to her back and then jumping off at the peak of her ascent.

The Zonai Cannon is one of the only ways that Mineru's Construct can deal a significant amount of long-range damage, which is great for when you're trying to fight the Stalkoblins that are riding around on Stalhorses. It deals a large blast of energy, though it takes a moment to charge up and will consume a significant portion of your battery when it fires.

You really shouldn't attach cannons to both hands because you'll burn through your battery far too quickly, which can leave you stranded in battle and leave Mineru's Construct somewhat useless while it recharges.

The various Zonai emitters, like the Flame, Beam, or Shock Emitter, are another great option to hook up to Mineru. Although these Emitters are a great option to take, if you want to deal some longer-distance damage, you'll need to keep a careful eye on your battery.

Options like the Flame and Beam Emitters will burn through your energy cells if you use them for too long. On the other hand, the Shock Emitter will only burn through your energy if you're hitting your enemy, but it isn't as long-range as the Flame and Beam versions.

Sure, you can find spiked balls in the depths, but they will not be as grand or as amazing as the Giant Spiked Ball option you can find around Monster Hideouts. There will almost always be one that you can pick up at the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower that you can easily fuse to Mineru's Construct.

They're durable, they deal a lot of damage, and they just look kind of cool when they're attached to one of her hands. Plus, because it's not a Zonai device, it won't burn through the battery, which you can use for movement or another device.

It doesn't particularly matter what type of Talus you kill to get a Talus Heart, just that you remember to grab it before leaving the area so it doesn't despawn. You have to work a little bit harder than an option like the Giant Spiked Ball to get it, but Taluses are significantly more common, so you should have an easier time picking one up.

Unfortunately, Mineru's Construct probably won't be that helpful in a fight against a Talus, so it's best if you let her sit this one out and instead use an ability like Recall to throw a Taluses boulder hand back at them.

Flux Construct Cores can be picked up from defeating any level of Flux Construct, which are generally found on the Sky Islands, ranging from level one to level three. Flux Construct three will generally drop the strongest cores that you can easily pick up and fuse to either a Zonaite sword, or you can opt to fuse them to Mineru's Construct.

This gives her a weapon that won't break easily, won't consume your Energy Cells, and will still deal significant damage. Plus, if you are wandering around the Depths looking for the big patches of breakable Zonaite Rock, Mineru's Construct can easily smash its way through with the Flux Construct Core.

Dragon Spike Shards are easily collected from any of the passive dragons drifting throughout the skies of Hyrule. All you have to do is run along their back, right up against their spikes, and pick up as many shards as your heart desires. Once you have a healthy supply from any of the local dragons, you can drop back to the ground and fuse one to Mineru's hand.

This should deal elemental damage on top of however much they increase Mineru's base damage, plus you can easily switch out your elemental damage by affixing a different dragon's shard.

Gleeoks are one of the most dangerous enemies you can run across in the wilds of Hyrule, but if you're prepared to defeat them, they should drop a reasonably powerful Gleeok Horn. You could, realistically, fuse it to one of your weapons, but that weapon would probably break before the Gleeok Horn would.

So, a better option would be to fuse it to one of the Construct's hands. You should, realistically, be at a point in the game when you get Mineru's Construct where, while they are still intimidating, Gleeoks are not impossible to face off against.

Mineru's Construct doesn't move fast, and it often can't maneuver out of the way very well, which means you're either relying on her shield a lot or you're tanking a lot of hits. Instead of just consuming an endless amount of food while you're riding around on top of her, consider fusing any number of the Light Dragon's drops to it.

You can opt for any of her drops, like the scale, spike shard, horn, claw, or fang. These will all boost the damage Mineru's Construct deals, and it will heal Link with every hit.
