Hi Everyone
I can’t seem to find the Water Channel Key. I’ve defeated the elite monster in the cavern area that is supposed to drop the chest containing the key, but the chest is not there for me to loot.
I’ve followed the steps in this video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYNocOLp44c](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYNocOLp44c), but after I defeat the large enemy, there is no chest with the key. I have tried reloading the area and restarting the game, but the chest still doesn’t appear.
Has anyone else encountered this bug? Is there a known fix or a workaround? I’m unable to progress without this key.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hey, that video is outdated since the quest changed in The Breach update back in April. From the place you were supposed to put the key into before, go to the right. There should be a rotted bridge with a round enemy on it. Jump off into the water below.
