Don’t worry. In this article, I will explain what this clearance is & how to get it, also a way of increasing it.

Let’s jump in.

What is Clearance in Genshin Impact?

Clearance in Genshin Impact is a checkpoint mechanism that prevents players from further exploring without completing certain tasks or quests. You will get clearance by completing subsequent tasks. The more clearance you will get, the more privileges you will have.

In Genshin Impact, you will find a major world quest in each region. If you are in the desert area, you have already found the Golden Slumber, one of the major world quests consisting of some subsequent quests.

These subsequent quests will give you clearance by which you can solve puzzles and access more rewards around the Sumeru area. Some mechanisms will require high clearance levels, so you must get all clearance in genshin impact, to avoid You don’t have enough clearance.

How to Get Enough Clearance in Genshin Impact

By completing Lost in the Sands, The Secret of Al-Ahmar, Dreams Beneath the Searing Sand, and Dual Evidence quests, you will obtain clearance which will give access to various control units & doors in various ruins in the desert of Genshin Impact.

So, how to use clearance in Genshin Impact after getting it?

When you are stuck in front of locked doors in the desert with the red-colored control unit to interact, that means you do not have enough clearance.
