How to Complete 'Leave the Bank of Life' Quest & Get All Chests in Wuthering Waves (2026 Guide)

Just finished the 'Leave the Bank of Life' quest in Wuthering Waves' Black Shores, and let me tell you, that portal puzzle had me scratching my head for a minute! 😅 If you're stuck trying to figure out how the new portal mechanics work, don't worry—I've got your back. This guide will walk you through the entire objective, step-by-step, and make sure you snag both the Standard and Advanced Supply Chests for a sweet total of 30 Astrites. Let's get you out of the Bank and back to the adventure!

Step 1: Entering the Corridor & First Chest

Your journey begins right after the quest prompt. Head forward, and you'll see the first glowing yellow portal. Go right through it! This transports you to the middle section of a long corridor. 🚪

• Pro-Tip: As soon as you materialize, look around! There's a Standard Supply Chest waiting for you here.

• Reward: Opening it grants you 10 Astrites. Not a bad start!

Step 2: Solving the First Portal Puzzle

Now, look ahead. You'll see a shimmering, translucent barrier—that's a Data Wall. This is your key to progression.

• Action Required: Simply aim at the Data Wall and tap your Normal Attack button. A quick slash or shot will do the trick!

• Result: Hitting it activates a new portal right next to the wall. Step through this new portal to reach the third and final section of the corridor. Puzzle one, solved! ✅

Step 3: The Elevator Dilemma & Finding the Key

After clearing the corridor, head straight into the next room. You'll find an elevator, but it's useless without a key. 🛗 The control panel is inactive.

• Don't panic! The solution is another Data Wall. Look for a white, energy-like wall in this room.

• Repeat the Process: Aim and use your Normal Attack on this white Data Wall. It will shatter, revealing a new portal.

• The Treasure Room: Jump into this portal. Inside, you'll find:

  1. The Elevator Key sitting on a nearby table. Grab it! 🔑

  2. An Advanced Supply Chest right there in the room.

• Major Reward: This Advanced Chest is worth 20 Astrites! Combined with the first one, you're now up to 30 Astrites total for this quest.

Step 4: Powering Up and Getting Out

Exit the treasure room through the same portal to return to the elevator room.

• Final Action: Interact with the base of the elevator to place the key. This powers up the mechanism.

• Ascend: Hop on the elevator and ride it up to the next tier. You're almost free!

Step 5: Quest Completion & Cutscene

Once at the top, walk straight ahead and exit the room. This triggers a brief but significant cutscene with The Shorekeeper, wrapping up the 'Leave the Bank of Life' objective officially. 🎬

💡 My Personal Tips & Tricks

Having gone through this, here's what I wish I knew:

• Data Walls are Your Friends: If you're stuck, look for these shimmering walls. They're almost always the solution to opening new paths or revealing secrets.

• Combat is Optional: You don't need to fight anything here. It's purely a puzzle and exploration objective. Save your energy for the bosses later!

• Don't Rush the Cutscene: The conversation with The Shorekeeper might seem minor, but it adds nice lore context for the Black Shores region.

And that's it! You've successfully navigated the Bank of Life, grabbed some great loot, and moved the main story forward. This quest is a perfect example of how Wuthering Waves mixes simple environmental puzzles with rewarding exploration. Now, go enjoy those 30 Astrites and tackle whatever comes next in the Black Shores! 💪
