How to get the Gerudo Sanctum chest behind the wall in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
The Gerudo Sanctum chest behind the wall in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is one of the trickier puzzles to solve at first glance.
As you journey through the Gerudo Sanctum, you’ll run into a room with some pots. A wall will split the room in half, and you’ll see an out-of-reach chest on the other side of the wall. You may try to summon echoes, stacking beds and trampolines to get to the chest, but none of these efforts will work.
Below, we explain how to get this chest in the Gerudo Sanctum, as well as explain what’s inside the chest.
How to get the Gerudo Sanctum chest behind the wall
To be frank, if you’re seeing that chest behind the wall and doing everything you can to grab it the answer is kind of sad: Just ignore it for now. There is a path to this chest, but you won’t be able to get it from the room you initially see it in. Just keep trekking through the dungeon.
When you hit the part of the dungeon when you fight a poe, that’s when you’re going to need to start paying attention again. This will give you the dungeon map and then access to the stilled area outside of the sanctum.
As you progress through this outside area, you’ll eventually be on the roof of part of the sanctum near a warp waypoint. On the left of this roof is a particular sandy tile that’s not like the rest of the tiles. Use a holmill echo on this square. It’ll dig a hole that you can drop into — and what do you know, you drop straight on to that chest from the room before.
That’s it. You’ll get a monster stone from the chest for your troubles and you can take the warp waypoint back up to the roof to continue your journey through the Gerudo Sanctum.
