Owa Daim Shrine
This part of IGN's Breath of the Wild wiki guide will take you through the Owa Daim Shrine. This is one of four Shrines in the Great Plateau in BotW.
Owa Daim Shrine is unique in that it is not only one of four shrines required to complete to leave the Great Plateau, but also provides you with one of the new Runes: The Stasis Rune.
- Location: Owa Daim Shrine is located in the Southern area of the Great Plateau, up at the top of a steep cliff at the southeastern side of Mount Hylia. You can either climb up the hills behind the Temple of Time, or climb up from the cliffs near the farm house on the southern tip of the region - using the small platforms along the way up to catch your stamina.

Shrine Walkthrough - Stasis Trial
Entering the Owa Daim Shrine you'll find it to be almost clockwork in its design - with many moving parts and gears moving platforms in a large hall. In particular the moving platform ahead will move too rapidly for you to cross - so inspect the pedestal to the left with your Sheikah Slate to obtain the Stasis Rune. Using this rune, you can freeze certain objects - either to stop moving parts from advancing, or to build up momentum on an object when Stasis is released.
Using the Stasis Rune, target the large gear on the left and freeze it when the platform that it's spinning is straight, and run across. Be wary as you move into this next section, as the hall up ahead is configured to launch giant boulders down a ramp - and will smack into you and likely toss you over the ledge. Instead, wait for one to pass and start moving up, and ready your Stasis Rune to freeze the next boulder that drops further up - letting you run up the path and to the side as the boulder resumes.
Note: As the boulder passes you, freeze it again with the Stasis Rune and continue running up the slope past where the boulder drops to reach a higher platform where a treasure chest containing a Traveler's Shield awaits.
From the first platform, take a left to find a stationary boulder blocking the path. Nearby, look for a Iron Sledgehammer and equip it. Now, use the Stasis Rune on the boulder and start smacking it with your sledgehammer. You'll note that while in Stasis, the boulder is building momentum signaled by an increasing arrow the more you hit it. When Statis breaks, the boulder will launch into the air, revealing the path.
