It's too dangerous to go alone.

Use Your Rune Powers

The special Runes you get from the Shrines in Breath of the Wild aren’t just for solving puzzles; they’re plenty helpful in the large open world as well. Ever noticed those treasure chests just lying at the bottom of the rivers? Link can’t dive underwater to get to them, but he can use his Magnesis ability to magnetize the chest and bring it to shore, where he can open it.

Similarly, you can also set bombs near destructible objects to reveal hidden pathways or items that you couldn’t get to before. The ice block ability from the fourth Shrine will also let you cross gaps over the water easily. You can use all of your Rune powers in really innovative ways to get from one place to another, and to access new areas, so be sure to explore whenever you can.
