Where to find every Remnant Incense Guide in Wingspan Peak (Genshin Impact)

Three chests stand between you and the Treasure Vault

Six chests hide across Wingspan Peak, and three of them hold the items you actually need. Open every Precious and Luxurious chest in the area and you will walk away with three copies of the Remnant Incense Guide – Teplo Oasis, exactly what the Treasure Vault in Teplo Oasis demands before it opens.

The good news: it costs nothing. No currency, no time-gated materials, no quest chain gating the chests themselves. Set aside roughly 30 to 60 minutes depending on how thoroughly you have already explored the area and how fast you solve the two or three small puzzles along the way.

What you need before you start

Wingspan Peak belongs to the Snezhnaya expansion, so you will need access to that region first. Official materials do not state a specific quest requirement for the chests, though reaching the area likely means pushing through part of the main story.

A few chests are guarded or hidden behind simple mechanics, so your team matters a little. Not much, though. Any decently built DPS handles the enemies, but two elements earn their slot here:

• A Geo character with a construct, such as Zhongli or Ningguang, for the pressure plates.
• A Pyro character like Amber or Diluc to melt the ice covering one buried chest.

Playing on a budget? Kaeya, Xiangling, and Noelle cover cryo utility, Pyro application, and a Geo construct plus shield between them. All three are free or widely available. If you want the comfortable version, Zhongli shields and solves plates, Hu Tao or Yoimiya burn through ice and Fatui alike, and Kazuha groups enemies so they die faster.

All six chest locations, in a sensible route

Start at the Wingspan Peak waypoint and work outward. This order keeps backtracking to a minimum.

1. Head north from the waypoint along the cliff edge. The first Precious chest sits near a broken pillar.
2. Climb the hill east of the waypoint. A Luxurious chest waits at the top, guarded by a group of Fatui agents. Kill them, take the chest.
3. Glide down to the small camp west of the waypoint instead of walking. A Precious chest sits inside a tent.
4. Nearby, a pressure plate puzzle hides a Luxurious chest behind a rock wall. Place a Geo construct on the plate, or stand on it yourself with a heavy character.
5. Walk to the southern edge of Wingspan Peak near the water. One Precious chest is buried in snow and sealed under ice. A Pyro attack melts it open.
6. The last Luxurious chest crowns the highest peak in the area. Ride the wind currents up, then clear the Hilichurl camp camped next to it.

Count your Remnant Incense Guide items when you finish. Three means you are done. Fewer means a chest got missed, so retrace the route above.

Turning the guides into a vault key

Everything you collect and what it feeds into, in one table:

Once the key lands in your inventory, travel to Teplo Oasis and interact with the Treasure Vault to unlock it. That is the entire chain: chests, guides, key, vault.

When something does not work

• The chest is gone. You probably opened it during earlier exploration. Check your inventory for the guide items before hunting again.
• The pressure plate ignores you. Some plates need a specific weight or an elemental application. Geo constructs work, and so does standing on the plate with the right character.
• The Fatui hit too hard. Drop your World Level or bring a healer and a shielder. If you only want the chest, you can sometimes slip past the agents, but expect them to aggro.

Questions players actually ask

Does a quest gate Wingspan Peak?
Official materials list no specific quest for the chests. The area is part of the Snezhnaya expansion, so story progress may be required to reach it in the first place.

Can the guides drop anywhere else?
No. Only the Precious and Luxurious chests in Wingspan Peak contain them, and no other source is mentioned.

I opened a chest and got no guide. Why?
The designated chests guarantee the guides, so a missing item almost always means a missed chest. Recheck every location on the list.

Is there any RNG or pity involved?
None. Chest contents are fixed. Either the chest holds a guide or you have not opened it yet.

One last detail worth knowing: since nothing here is time-gated, you can leave the vault locked indefinitely and finish the chest run whenever a Snezhnaya exploration session suits you. The chests stay put.
