One of the best parts of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the freedom the RPG gives you to break its combat system apart, and oh boy, one player has done it. It turns out that not even the game’s toughest boss – buffed up with 100 times more health than usual thanks to the newly introduced challenge modifiers – is any match for a 1.4 trillion-damage attack.
Since Clair Obscur developer Sandfall Interactive nerfed Maelle and her overpowered attack and (broken sword Medalum) shortly after the RPG’s launch, it forced players to become more creative. Now, in the single most impressive video of the game I’ve ever seen, one buildcrafting genius has made the scythe-wielding Sciel the star of the show in an incredibly long (but oh so satisfying) fight against postgame superboss Simon on New Game+, Expert difficulty, and the aforementioned 100x health challenge modifier applied.
And the best part? They’ve also explained exactly how to replicate it. Known on Reddit as Rephian (but Coccobello on YouTube), the setup involves stacking as many speed-buffing Pictos on Sciel as possible, as well as giving her a selection of Luminas to maximise the amount of AP she accumulates, and equipping her Charnon weapon. Verso is also here for the ride, but only temporarily – he shows up to buff Sciel and help smash Simon’s break bar before promptly dying and sitting on the sidelines for the rest of the lengthy battle.
