Loz breath of the wild shrine guide: rota ooh shrine "passing of the gates"

Pain. In. The. Ass.
Use the ice power and freeze a platform on the right side in front of the ledge.
To do this you must edge carefully into the water down the ramp on the right. Use the far right side of the ramp. Once you can see that you can make an ice platform DIRECTLY to the right of the solid walkway to the left. You need to be able to jump from the ice block to the other side of the front wall.
If you need better idea of exactly where to place the block of ice simply swim down the right ramp and around the left corner.
Once on the other side (you will see the orange ball that WAS behind a locked door) you need to get the ball over behind the fence on the right. Into the orange hole.
Really you don't need the chest in the back left corner of the room. It's a small key to open the locked door. Getting the key creates a checkpoint though.
Now this is the fun part. To get the ball over the fence you need to first create a second ice block TO THE LEFT of the metal grate that spans across the center path. It is important that the block is to the left.
With the block made you need to place the ball and two bombs on the ice block in a triangle formation with the bombs behind the ball.
Like this:

100000000000001
100000000000001
1BBBB0000BBBB1
1BBBB0000BBBB1

For the record "B" stands for "bomb" and "P" stands for the ball. And the reason why I have 3 bombs is because you won't know what shape to make the triangle till you try this.
The exact placement of the two bombs depends on how well you can place them with the ball. And DON'T remove the first ice block you used to get through the locked door.
Once you place both bombs and the ball on the ice block in a triangle as displayed above use the time stop power on the ball. Then switch to a bomb, step back, detonate, then watch the fun. The ice block blows up, the ball floats in midair, and a red arrow shows where the ball will go.
You want the arrow going ABOVE AND OVER that Damn fence. If this technique fails the grab the ball and try again. If the ball falls in the water, fuck it and reload the last save.
BTW if you DO want the small key use the ice power to make a block in front of the platform with the key. Climb and grab.

To summarize the above simply, create an ice block to the right of the platform via the right ramp, use another ice block and place the ball and TWO bombs in a triangle so that the ball is facing the fence in front of the orange hole, freeze time, detonate bombs.
Once you succeed in the unholy shitstorm above the ball going into the hole on the other side of the fence will activate a square launching platform in front of the now unlocked door (or locked door if you said fuck the key).
This is annoying. The platform will rise three seconds after it falls. You need to step off the square at the end of the count of three AFTER the platform goes down. Once done right you'll be launched into the air.
If you want the chest you need to glide to it soon as you reach max height. Otherwise you'll need to whip out the glider soon after the square catapult flings you all the way up and either glide right or left. This fling and zing thing here is a bitch of a sting to do. Too soon and you face plant the platform (or you miss your chance to land if you DO time the launch right). Too late and you get launched into the low ceiling.
BTW if you want to know the purpose of the ladder behind the fence where the ball goes to activate the catapult platform, like the cake and my cat, IT IS A LIE. A BIG FREAKING DICK TEASER OF A LIE. forget the ladder like you did that one thing you did when you were younger, yeah...YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
after you stick the landing go grab the orb above. Then question what the designers were smoking when they made this thing.
