Unfortunately, Gatanisis Shrine involves a degree of luck and patience to complete. The goal here is to get the ball to hit the target to open the door. Initially, it doesn’t get high enough. Facing the platform, the player should see a small square platform attached to the long platform with a ball bouncing along it.

Standing on that square, use Recall on the platform to bounce the ball high enough to reach the target. Try hitting the platform withRecalljust before the ball is underneath the target. After a few (or more) tries, the player will be able to figure out the path of the ball and time the Recall well enough to hit the target. Before going all the way through, however, players should grab the treasure chest above the target.
Gatanisis Shrine Treasure Chest Location
To get to the Treasure Chest in the Shrine, the player will have to return to the bouncing platform. Standing in the middle, use Recall on the platform to launch Link into the air while facing the treasure chest on the opposite end of the platform to the square.
Link isn’t safe here, however, so make sure to watch out for the ball that is still bouncing around. Launch up, paraglide safely down, and collectthe five Bomb Flowers in the Chest.
