Almost all areas in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 have their own secrets that reward players with special items or reveal a hidden path. Lumiere is the first area you get to explore as it’s the home of all the Expedition members. Players will also learn more about the characters as they interact with other Lumiere citizens in Expedition 33.
There are a lot of interactions players can experience while exploring the city, but not all of them reward an item. Some are simply for more lore knowledge, and you will simply get the satisfaction that Sophie left her mark somehow in Lumiere before the Gommage.
All Secrets In Lumiere — Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
There are many secrets players can unravel while exploring Lumiere before sending Sophie off for her Gommage. You will even encounter an enemy inside the city that rewards a Music Record.
Chroma Locations In Expedition 33
There are three spots where you can collect Chroma in Lumiere. The first is on top of the boxes near where Marie is standing with her daughter. The second is on the balcony behind where Lune is playing music. The final location is on the left side of the harbour, surrounded by many people.
Richard's Son Uniform Quest In Expedition 33
Before approaching the stage where the Expedition is trying to recruit new members, you can speak with Richard, Sophie’s sewing teacher in Expedition 33. He fought with his son, and the latter won’t be attending the Gommage. Richard then gives you a uniform he made the night before as a goodbye gift for his son, Jules. The father asks you to deliver the uniform, as Jules can be found at the Expedition Festival.
After players experience the Gommage and witness the Paintress for the first time, they’re immediately taken to the Festival, where all the Expedition 33 members are gathered for their send-off. You can find Richard’s son standing near Maelle’s location in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
Giving Jules the uniform makes him feel sad, so he decides to give it to Gustave as a way to help the Expedition. This unlocks a new outfit for Gustave, the Crimson Uniform, which is just a red version of his uniform.
Eloise Challenge In Expedition 33
Next to the Expedition recruitments stage, Eloise is standing there looking furious. She believes that the Expedition’s goal is stupid, since her father gave up his life for it and still died. To prove her wrong and restore her faith in the Expedition, Gustave must defeat a balloon in one hit. To destroy the balloon with one hit in Expedition 33, charge Gustave’s arm until it’s full of
Overcharge and attack the balloon. Eloise rewards you with the
Colour of Lumina .
Nicolas Painting In Expedition 33
Proceed ahead to find Lune playing on one side and a painter with a blank canvas on the other side. Approach the artist, Nicolas, to find him lacking inspiration. If Sophie agrees to inspire him, she and Gustave will enter a battle. You only need to parry Sophie’s attack and not get hit for Nicolas to complete the painting in Expedition 33. The artist will thank Soph and reward you with a
Recoat , which is used to reallocate a character’s Skill Points or Attributes.
Trash-Can Man In Expedition 33
A glowing trash can is located near the artist Nicolas. Approach it to see the prompt «a perfectly normal trash can,» which is different from the other ones you encountered before. Interact with it multiple times to discover the Trash-Can Man. He’s hiding from the Gommage and tells you to ignore him. Players will get a
Chroma Catalyst as a reward.
Mime Location In Expedition 33
Close to the performers’ stage near the harbour, a Mime can be defeated to obtain a music record, Lumiere, as well as the ‘A Peculiar Encounter’ trophy/achievement.
