The Shrine of Resurrection clip is a well-known glitch in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild that allows players to bypass certain early-game progression barriers, such as leaving the Great Plateau before completing the initial tutorial shrines. Executing this clip requires precise movement and timing.
What is the Shrine of Resurrection Clip?
This technique involves manipulating Link's position to pass through an invisible barrier, typically found around the starting area of the game. Successfully performing the clip enables players to explore the vast world of Hyrule much earlier than intended, offering a unique speedrunning or challenge experience.
Step-by-Step Guide to Performing the Clip
To execute the Shrine of Resurrection clip, follow these steps with patience and precision:
- Locate the Specific Hill: After emerging from the Shrine of Resurrection, head towards the top of a particular hill in the immediate vicinity. This is often an area with an invisible boundary designed to keep you within the Great Plateau until you've progressed.
- Crouch and Position: Once you reach the top of this hill, crouch down (by pressing the left stick) and move carefully to a specific spot on the ground near the edge of the invisible barrier. Precision in this positioning is crucial for the glitch to work.
- Walk Against the Barrier: While still in the crouched position, walk directly against the invisible barrier that marks the boundary at the top of the hill. You should feel Link "pushing" against an unseen wall.
- Utilize the 'B' Button: While pressing against the invisible barrier, repeatedly or precisely press the B button (the dash/cancel button). In many clipping glitches, this action helps to briefly manipulate Link's collision detection or hitbox.
- Achieve the Clip: If performed correctly, Link should pass through the barrier, allowing you to move beyond the intended boundaries of the Great Plateau.
Tips for Success
- Patience is Key: Clipping glitches often require multiple attempts due to their precise nature. Don't get discouraged if it doesn't work on the first try.
- Observe Link's Movement: Pay close attention to how Link reacts when pushing against the barrier and pressing the B button. Slight adjustments in angle or timing can make a difference.
- Experiment with Timing: The "use b" step often implies a specific timing or rhythm. Try pressing B once, repeatedly, or in conjunction with movement inputs.
- Reference Visuals: While this guide provides instructions, watching a video demonstration can often clarify the exact positioning and timing needed.
This glitch offers an exciting way to experience Breath of the Wild with a different sequence of progression, allowing advanced players or speedrunners to optimize their routes.
