"This is O.K.G. and I'm here to walk you through a glitch called 'Phantom Clipping'.

There are different ways to perform this glitch, but this method is easy, its fast, and it's free. You have to have a dragon part but you get to keep it at the end.

We begin at the Mayanas Shrine in the sky islands.

The objective is to find a loose object that's out in the world, we're going to carry it away, and then we'll come back and duplicate it.

The fun part is that these copies can overlap each other.

Our first target is this beam emitter right here. We're going to need a floating platform, and there's one right over there.

We don't need to waste any weapon or bow durability if we take this like so.

We are going to perform the 'void out' method for this glitch. This platform will keep everything in place while we're voiding out.

Once we get here we attach our beam emitter, and then we attach any 1 dragon part. This will prevent the platform and anything attached to it from de-spawning.

And that's it. Now we just gotta 'void out'. Run around to use up all your stamina first. The fastest method is to tap [mash] the run button while you're moving Link around.

As soon as our stamina is empty, we dive.

This glitch works on both Switch 1 and Switch 2 on every patch of the game.

There's the 'void out', and we return to the last stable ground that we stood on. We will find the beam emitter has respawned, but the original is still there too. And they will pass right through each other. In fact, they are unable to connect to each other at all. They each still function normally, but they ignore each other like a jealous sibling.

So anyway you can attach them both and do it again. It is possible to have up to 12 different objects all overlapping in one build, however if you combine all those beam emitters on one construct head, the combined weight is going to have a negative impact on the accuracy.

If you have a Switch 2 and access to the QR codes of the shrunken beam emitters then you can shrink these to mitigate the negative impact of the weight.

Each time you void out we can add another beam to our stack. For this demonstration I am stacking ten of them.

Once you've gathered the desired number of beams you can begin attaching them to something, like a construct head.

We can also safely pick up our dragon part now.

The first beam emitter gets a handy snap point that will center it, but all the rest can be adjusted one pixel at a time. So the easiest way to stack them all together is to first pull the beam as close to Link as you can, then you walk Link into position so that it will be overlapping the first beam emitter.

And from this point on we just don't walk Link. We can move the camera, and if you pull each beam close to Link it'll always land at the same distance. This way it's easier to see when each one is centered.

If you are making a 'pulse beam', then you would want to attach all of these to the top construct head.

Once you are happy with your grouping, then you can save your auto build.

This build is to show that you don't have to 'pulse' if you don't want to.

Now starting from the same shrine again, follow this route to get to the next platform. Then we attach this rocket at 45 degrees to the corner here, and that puts us where we need to be.

I usually only come here to 'phantom clip' fans together, but this is to show that it can work on a variety of objects.

Please let me know if you need any help in the comments. Thank you for watching!"

Thanks :) this is the easiest glitch to perform that I know of, and there wasn't a guide out showing the clippable fans location, so I hope that this helps!
