2. Glide Down from the Mountain
3. Fire it Up
4. Optional: Melt Your Enemies
5. Melt the Next Ice
6. Break the Ice
7. Focus on the Archer
8. Incapacitate Your Enemies
9. Take Down the Final Enemy
10. Melt the Ice One Last Time
11. Enter the Shrine

1. Head to Icefall Foothills

It's a long trek to find Icefall Foothills so pack up on items to keep you warm and get ready to climb and glide to reach the northwestern-most region of the map.

2. Glide Down from the Mountain

From the top of the mountains, glide down to the spot on the map and you should see the Icefall Foothills Cave entrance being blocked by ice.

The exact coordinates of the Icefall Foothills Cave is at -4429, 3752, 0224.

3. Fire it Up

Use a torch or an item on fire to slowly melt the ice. You can simply stand next to it to melt it.

4. Optional: Melt Your Enemies

There are 2 enemies in this section that can be melted out of the ice with the campfire or by standing near them with fire. You can defeat them one by one before proceeding or ignore them completely.

5. Melt the Next Ice

In order to proceed, you'll need to melt the ice blocking the entrance to the next section.

6. Break the Ice

Jump on the ice in the center to break it and enter the next section. Be warned that you will need quite a few hearts to deal with the enemies here. Go in with your weapons and shields ready.

7. Focus on the Archer

For those lacking in hearts, getting hit by the Archer or the Black Bokoblin can be very very deadly. They're not too hard to deal with, but you'll have to dodge the other 2 while doing so, so use items that can get many enemies at once like a Flame Emitter.

8. Incapacitate Your Enemies

With the Archer taken care of, you'll have to deal with the two melee enemies. While the staff Bokoblin isn't too much of an issue, it can still pose as threat if it knocks you down while fighting the Black Bokoblin. Incapacitate them with a Shock Emitter to keep them from joining the fight.

9. Take Down the Final Enemy

With the Black Bokoblin taken down, you can use their gear to quickly take down the last one!

10. Melt the Ice One Last Time

Slightly elevated is some ice blocking the path to the shrine. Same as before, stand next to it with fire and it will melt!

11. Enter the Shrine

With the ice gone, you can now approach and enter the shrine!

Otak Shrine Walkthrough

1. Take Your Equipment
2. Get the Attention of the Constructs
3. Deal with the First Construct
4. Fuse A New Weapon
5. Take Out the First Archer
6. Get The Attention of the Next Pair
7. Isolate Enemies
8. Stun and Take Down
9. Use the Equipment
10. Open the Chest
11. Examine the Altar

1. Take Your Equipment

You will not be allowed to use your own equipment here, so be sure to grab everything to the left of the entrance before proceeding.

2. Get the Attention of the Constructs

There are 6 Constructs in total, split into pairs around the chamber. You'll want to get the ones to the right side first so use your arrows to get their attention. You are likely to get the archer first so duck behind pillars and collect the arrows they send back for more ammo.

3. Deal with the First Construct

At some point, the other construct will come towards you with a spear. You'll want to time your attacks to hit and stun it! This way you can avoid taking damage.

4. Fuse A New Weapon

You'll get some materials and a new weapon to use, so fuse them together to give yourself a better weapon!

5. Take Out the First Archer

Now that you have a new weapon, you can either take out the Archer from a range or run up and take them down. Regardless, it will provide you with more materials.

6. Get The Attention of the Next Pair

Another pair of constructs will be hovering nearby, so use the same method to catch their attention. Once they start chasing, cut the rope of the lamp to add some damage.

7. Isolate Enemies

One of these constructs has a spin attack and shield, making them quite difficult to get near. Try to isolate your enemies to take down the spear construct first! One way to do this is to climb up the platform and hop back down to slow their pursuit.

8. Stun and Take Down

When the construct uses its spinning attack, shoot an arrow at it to stun it and rush forward to take it down. Keep swiping quickly to keep it from attacking you back!

9. Use the Equipment

Now that the Shield construct is down, you can take their items and do the same thing to the last 2 constructs, shielding from their attacks to make the job quicker. Defeat the 2 to open the door.

10. Open the Chest

Open the chest in the center to snag a Mighty Construct Bow inside.

11. Examine the Altar

Examine the altar and get a Light of Blessing to complete the Shrine!
