Best Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 XP Farm Guide

By Karl Reyes | April 28th, 2025 | Categories: RPG

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is all about comboing skills while dodging or parrying attacks to gain XP for your skills. However, you may find yourself going against more difficult encounters in the overworld and in certain dungeons. You’ll need raw stats to get through them, which you get 3 per level up. To make the early and endgame easier, this guide will show you the best XP farming methods in the game.

Act 1 XP Farming Method

You’ll need to progress through the game until you reach the Gestral Village. From there, participate in the arena fights as Maelle alone until you reach “The Stranger.” Once you beat him, you’ll receive Maelle’s best weapon: Medalum.

Head to the Hidden Gestral Arena in the overworld just west of the Ancient Sanctuary. This location lets you fight four bosses, each rewarding you with a powerful Picto that synergizes with solo builds.

  • 1st Battle: Last Stand Critical
  • 2nd Battle: Accelerating Last Stand
  • 3rd Battle: Protecting Last Stand
  • 4th Battle: Solo Fighter

You can repeat the last fight since it rewards a massive chunk of XP, especially if you beat it without getting hit. To make the fight easier, level Maelle until you can unlock her Rain of Fire skill and use the Roulette Picto you get in the Gestral village. With Medalum, Maelle will start at Virtuous Stance, boosting Rain of Fire with 200% damage while applying twice the number of Burns in two or three turns at most. Should the Roulette Picto proc at 200% damage, you can end this fight at turn 1.

Mid-Game XP Farming Method

Once you reach around level 25 and have unlocked Esquie’s ability to break corals, you can swim to Sirene. Go through the dungeon until you reach the Dancing Classes Expedition Flag. Just ahead are Ballets you can fight, with each encounter rewarding around 20k XP.

Just like the Act 1 farming method, bring Maelle with the Medalum equipped to start the fight with Virtuous Stance instantly.

Post-Story XP Farming Method

The Dark Shore is an excellent source of XP for reaching Level 99 quickly, as there is an encounter that rewards around 1.2 million XP per fight. The closest encounter you can find is at the Bloodied Beach Expedition Flag. From there, simply go right and find 3 Noirs huddled together. Fight them, then run back to the Expedition Flag to make them respawn. The trip only takes 7 seconds from the fight back to the checkpoint, making it the fastest source of XP. To make the fights faster, use Light damage against them since they’re weak to that element.
