Video Guide

1. Create a Makeshift Staircase

Several floating rocks will be present in this puzzle and you'll have to use them to create makeshift bridges to cross between platforms.

Once you proceed towards the area, you will see large hover stones floating around the vicinity. Grab those hover stones, and form a staircase that would allow you to access the elevated platform ahead.

For you to grab and place hover stones midair, you will need to strike them with a weapon in order for them to float. Otherwise, these stones would stay on the ground.

2. Make a Floating Bridge

In the next area, you will see a rectangular metal panel and a large rock near you. Strike the stone to make it float, and place it towards the middle of the chasm ahead of you.

From there, place the rectangular panel on the hover stone and stick them together to create a sort of floating bridge for you to cross and reach the next area.

3. Make a Floating Ramp

To reach the elevated platform, simply grab the floating bridge you used earlier and place it in a way that forms a ramp that would enable you to reach the platform ahead.

4. Reach Chest by Stacking the Floating Rocks

When you reach the next area, the chest will be located on an elevated compartment above you. Stack the hover stones near the area that would allow you to climb your way to the platform.

Opening the chest will reward you with Arrow x5.

5. Attach Sphere Under the Floating Rock

After opening the chest, go down and head to the stone sphere placed on the table. Grab the sphere, and place it under the hover stone near the bumper mechanism.

The bumper mechanism can be recognized by its bronze plating and circular markings.

6. Board the Floating Rock

Jump on the hover stone with the stone sphere below it.

7. Activate the Bumper

From there, shoot an arrow to the pedestal that activates the bumper. This will trigger the bumper mechanism, and push the hover stone towards the next area.

8. Drop the Sphere on the Circular Cavity

When you reach the next platform, grab the stone sphere underneath the hover stone and drop it on the circular cavity in the vicinity.

This will open the gate that leads to the altar.

9. Proceed to the Altar

Continue towards the altar and complete the Ihen-a Shrine.
