Zelda Breath of the Wild Rin Oyaa shrine walkthrough

There are many ways to complete this Rin Oyaa shrine – Directing the wind, but the method below is the easiest, so let’s get started. 

Once you have entered the shrine, you will see an orange ball ahead. Grab this ball and carry it ahead to where the receptacle is. Don’t place it yet using Magnesis; place one of the metal cubes in front of the leftmost fan. 

It will block the air from that fan, then use Magnesis and place the other metal cube at the platform near the chest in Zelda BOTW Rin Oyaa shrine. Once you have put these cubes, grab the ball, then drop it where you have the first metal cube. 

Just as you drop the ball, run to the platform up the slope. As you are there, you will see the ball is being pushed by the air from the fans to the receptacle. Once the ball is in place, the platform you are standing on will move upwards.

Use the opportunity to jump on the cube and open the chest there. This Rin Oyaa shrine chest in Zelda BOTW has the Ancient Core for you to collect. Now, jump on the second metal cube to open the treasure chest that will reward you with the Ancient Core. Return to the monk and get the Spirit Orb by following the same route.

This is how you beat the Rin Oyaa shrine in Zelda BOTW and get the spirit orb.
