When you speak to the statue, it will vaguely say it\u2019s trapped underwater but specify its exact location: \u201cI am trapped\u2026under the water\u2026behind the stone gate\u2026of the great plateau\u2026,\u201d the dialogue reads. Read on to learn how to save the TotK Temple of Time statue. Where is the Temple of Time statue trapped underwater on the Great Plateau in TotK? The Temple of Time statue or Goddess Statue will be found south of the Gatepost Town Ruins at coordinates -0573, -1525, 0020. The stone gate implies the statue is at the entrance to the plateau near its northern wall, and if you head north from the Temple of Time, you\u2019ll see large bodies of water around where a gate would be. Go to the place on the map above where the roads connect immediately south of Lake Kolomo, and you\u2019ll notice a pile of destructible rocks plugging the wall from the other side. Water will be spewing out of the rocks. Grab a hammer\u2014or fuse one of the nearby rocks to a weapon to create a rock hammer, as shown in the video below\u2014and get to swinging. Bomb Flowers will also do the trick if you have a spare on hand, or if you've already acquired the Vow on Yunobo, you can call on your Goron friend to get the job done. Video by Dot Esports Once you destroy the rocks, the water will drain and a few fish will be flopping about on the ground. There will be a triangular, rust-colored statue sticking halfway out of the earth just past the gate. Speak to it, and it will tell you to go back to the Temple of Time. Head south and speak once more to the Temple of Time statue. It will tell you a part of it has been freed and that it is speaking to you from the Depths\u2014it actually isn\u2019t the statue. This interaction automatically starts the side quest \u201cA Call from the Depths.\u201d This quest requires players to visit four locations around the plateau, which will be marked with quest indicators after starting the quest. At these locations are \u201ceyes\u201d players must collect and then deposit into the nearby chasms and deliver to the statue at the Great Abandoned Central Mine. Only then will players learn the true connection between the Temple of Time statue and the one that lurks underground.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/IMG_2781-e1685133608102.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870546"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1723"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=870546"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870546\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1143678,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/870546\/revisions\/1143678"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/870574"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=870546"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=870546"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=870546"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=870546"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=870546"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=870546"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=870546"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
