How to support Zelda Tears of the Kingdom signs

Use Ultrahand to support Addison by grabbing nearby items to prop signs up

Supporting Zelda Tears of the Kingdom signs can be fiddlely, but the payoff's worth it. You'll meet Addison, struggling around Hyrule, holding up President Hudson signs and you can help him with your Zelda Tears of the Kingdom abilities – specifically, Ultrahand - to support the sign and fix it in place.

Obviously at this point you will have visited all the Sky Island shrines in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom and received a skill from each. Ultrahand is the first one you get, and if you've built any Zelda Tears of the Kingdom vehicles with it already, you'll be well set to fix the Hudson signs and help Addison. With it, you can support signs for the construction worker with whatever you can find nearby to stick together. Here's how to use Ultrahand to support signs in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, and how to figure out which materials and placements suit each puzzle.

There are a few different kinds of Hudson signs and their respective structures means there are a few variations to consider when trying to hold them up and fix them. Most of the time, you'll be able to see straight away that the worker is standing by a pile of wooden beams, planks of wood, or even wheels – so you should always try to use a combination of these first.

To get started, look at the placement of the sign and check which parts are already supported - usually, one side will be attached to a wooden post, while the other will be unsupported entirely. When you see a sign like this, try wedging a wooden beam under it at a diagonal and then attach another post, or a boulder, to the opposite end of the diagonal support to form a base that won't slide away. Remember: It doesn't have to look pretty, it just has to hold up the sign .

Sometimes, you'll come across a sign that has a flat wooden platform sticking out at the base of its one supported side. These signs are even easier to support: just lift a large nearby boulder with Ultrahand, rest it behind Addison so that it's weighing down the flat wooden platform, and the sign will stand by itself.

Just always remember to tell the construction worker to let go, or he won't reward you with your rupees, a high-health replenishing meal, and a Pony Pass. Check out our Zelda Tears of the Kingdom horses guide for more on what those are for.

Look for beams, planks, boulders or anything to use as building materials. Work out where the sign needs supporting. Use Ultrahand to position and fix items to support the sign, reinforcing your construction with additional material if needed.
