How to Upgrade Clearance Level in Wuthering Waves

Wuthering Waves 2.1 drops you into a brand-new zone filled with fresh challenges, hidden secrets, and surprises waiting to be uncovered. At the heart of it all is the Clearance Level system: your key to bypassing security restrictions, unlocking powerful rewards, and fully exploring the mysterious new Underground Vault area and its many dangers.

What is Clearance Level in Wuthering Waves?

Clearance Level determines how much access you have to different sections of the vault and how much security hates your guts. When you first enter the new Underground Vault added in Wuthering Waves 2.1, you’ll start with limited access and face restrictions on a constant basis. However, as you progress through the area, you’ll get the opportunity to upgrade your Clearance Level, which will allow you to open new pathwa🙈ys, uncover unique puzzles, and stake your claim to previous inaccessible rewards.

The Upgrade Process

To increase your Clearance Level, you’ll need to interact with specific objects located in the vault’s Security Rooms. These objects look sort of like kiosks, and they tend to stand out from everything else ne𒐪ar the🌼m.

The Security Rooms themselves are not immediately accessible, but they become available to you as you advance through the main story quest in Vault 🥃Underground, the new Version 2.1 zone. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:

• Follow the Main Story – The Security Rooms that contain clearance upgrades are typically unlocked through story progression. You can’t miss them.
• Interact with Security Consoles – Inside of Security Rooms, you’ll find consoles or devices that allow you to boost your clearance when activated. These do not require any materials from you, only that you’ve already obtained your Clearance Module from Zani, earlier in the main story.
• Utilize the Echo Train – As your clearance rises, more areas of the vault will become accessible via the Echo Train, unlocking even deeper mysteries. Finishing the main story will also unlock new activities in the Underground Vautl, which you’ll need a proper Clearance Level for.

With every Clearance Level gained, you’ll gain access to new puzzles, challenges, ✃and previously unreachable areas, all full of rewards (Asterites) for the taking.
