Grand Windchamber is a room located in the Temple Grounds in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. It contains Sunburst.

Obtaining Sunburst Early

With Screw Attack

Normally, it's required to do a very long puzzle in Ing Windchamber to get access to the item. However, by doing a Bomb Space Jump onto a piece of standable collision, and performing a Screw Attack onto the platform, all of that is skipped. This is done in 100% speedruns.

Without Bombs

It is possible to get onto the required standable collision without having to do a BSJ by doing a Slope Jump on the distant platform. This method is more risky, as there is the chance to softlock if done incorrectly, but it allows for Sunburst to be retrieved without Morph Ball Bombs.

Without Screw Attack

The third method also uses a BSJ to reach the collision above the tunnel. With a good Scan Dash that is bent up-left, it is possible to reach an invisible ledge below Sunburst which skips the need for Screw Attack.

Getting Across Without Grapple

There are two methods of getting across this room without either Grapple Beam or Screw Attack.

Scan Dash Method

It's possible to get to and from each platform by scan dashing.

Boost Jump Method

Alternately, you can get to the other side by performing a Boost Jump.
