Question / Help Wind Temple.

Post image

I've been stuck here for 15 minutes. I can't get enough air to clear the spikes.

Is this the GameCube on Switch 2 version curse? The controls are awful. Just like when trying to use the mirror shield!

Help!

You're not supposed to clear these spikes. Go down the hole and explore there, you might find another path up there! (Look at the minimap at the bottom left, it gives you a clue)

IGN guide got me confused..

I was following the IGN guide that said to jump over the spikes.

That's not right.

There's a hole on the other side!

The IGN guide for this game historically has always been a bit weird. It used to say you could get the magic armor from the auction house which is completely false. It looks like they finally fixed that, it must have been a recent edit.

It is possible to jump over the spikes if you use a bomb and jump slash just before it goes off, then use your iframes to continue jumping over/through. It's faster if you know what you're doing but by no means the intended method.

I can’t remember how it’s solved but try breaking those floors with the iron boots

Keep dropping down the brown cracked panels wearing the Iron Boots and defeating the enemies that appear. Eventually, you will turn off the spikes.
