Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Where to Find All Weapons
Weapons in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 appear throughout the world and reward exploration. You’ll find them along side paths, after defeating enemies, inside Paint Cages, and within regions unlocked as the story progresses. To make sense of that spread, this guide uses the Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Interactive Map to show where each weapon appears and how they fit into natural progression.
Rather than leaving weapon collection to chance, the map brings all weapon locations into one clear view. Some weapons sit out in the open and reward curiosity, while others only unlock after specific fights or world events in places like Joyful Vale and Anger Vale. Because of this, weapon progression closely follows how thoroughly you explore each area. This guide focuses entirely on weapon locations shown on the map, making it easier to spot missed pickups, plan cleanup routes, and understand how weapons scale from early exploration to late-game challenges.
Locations for All Weapons
Exploration and Environmental Weapon Finds
A large portion of weapons in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 come from environmental discovery. Sucreso is hidden behind the grand piano in the tree house, rewarding players who check unusual landmarks closely. Esquion is found after climbing rock holds, reinforcing how vertical spaces often hide valuable gear.
Other weapons like Esqium, placed behind the Chromatic Franctale, or Esquim, obtained after breaking a cage, show how the world itself acts as a puzzle layer. These weapons are easy to overlook if you rush forward, but they’re ideal targets for backtracking once new routes open up. Environmental weapons tend to smooth out early and mid-game power curves, making them especially useful for build flexibility.
Combat, Enemy, and Boss Weapon Rewards
Several weapons are tied directly to combat encounters. Esquiaro requires dealing with a gestral kid blocking the path, while Nusaro is guarded by a group of enemies that must be cleared first. These weapons mark moments where combat mastery directly translates into gear upgrades.
Boss-linked weapons stand out even more. Chevalam is collected from a podium after defeating the Chromatic Gold Chevaliere, making it a clear milestone reward. Lithelim is only obtainable after defeating Clair Obscur himself, turning it into a late-game prize tied to major progression. These weapons often align with higher difficulty spikes and signal readiness for tougher regions ahead.
Paint Cages, Drops, and Region-Gated Weapons
Paint Cages play a big role in weapon distribution. Redalim, Duenum, and Delaram all come from destroying Paint Cages, making them easy to miss if you skip optional destruction objectives. Battlum and the double-enemy encounter weapon reward highlight drop-based progression, where clearing specific enemy setups yields both weapons and large Chroma payouts.
Region-based weapons like Confuso and Contorso are tied to Joyful Vale, positioned near the Mask of Joy and its surrounding encounters. Chroma x1470, found near the mask granting access to Anger Vale, acts more as a progression reward than a traditional weapon, signaling a transition into tougher content. Together, these weapons show how late-game routing and cleanup often revolve around masks, elite enemies, and previously inaccessible zones.
