shrine glitch?

hey so i'm currently playing through some shrines and during a guardian shrine the health bar would only go to a certain point and go no lower, i left that one and did shae loya shrine and did everything including hitting the light with the arrow at the end and after the gate opens it immediately shuts.
i've left and entered the shrines a few times but still doing the same.
any suggestions on what to do?

Are you using a double/triple shot bow to shoot the switch? If you are try it with a regular bow.

ive used a regular bow but still the gates close as i land down, test of strength isnt working either bc the guardian doesn't lose any health after a certain point so could be the game?

That is strange. From what I could find out from other threads about this, some said switching to a regular bow solved it, but I did see some say using the falcon bow (the one in the chest in that shrine) solved it as well for whatever reason.

The guardian thing is very weird. Have you used all sorts of weapons on it? Ancient arrows, ancient weapons, elemental weapons, bomb arrows?

If none of that works…I’m genuinely not sure. Is the game/switch software up to date?

update on the shae loya shrine i left it for a while went back to main menu and using my single shot bow now works soo idk what's up with that but thank god im through that 😭

guardian one yeah i used all different arrows and weapons but nothing? it wouldn't lose anymore health it would go just below middle on the health bar then no damage would effect it, I'm gonna go back to that one now see if going back to loading screen did help

also thank you for all the advice i appreciate the help so much!!!!
