Hexga - Boss Fight | Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 | Walkthrough, Gameplay, No Commentary, 4K

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a turn-based RPG set in a Belle Époque-inspired fantasy world, where players lead Expedition 33 on a desperate quest to destroy the mysterious Paintress. Each year, the Paintress erases people of a certain age, with the cursed number steadily decreasing. The game blends traditional turn-based combat with real-time elements like dodging, parrying, and a free-aim system, demanding tactical depth from players. One of the game's more challenging encounters is the Chromatic Hexga, a formidable boss found in the Stone Wave Cliffs Cave. This variant of the regular Hexga is a large, rock-like entity, distinguished by the prominent hexagonal crystal and rock cylinders on its back, which are central to its combat mechanics. The Chromatic Hexga is critically weak to Ice damage but highly resistant to Fire. The core of this boss fight revolves around managing the crystals on its back. These crystals cycle through four power stages, visually indicated by their color: dull when broken, white in normal state, yellow as they power up, and an ominous red at peak potency. When the crystals turn red, the Chromatic Hexga becomes completely invulnerable to all damage. To bypass this, players must switch to free-aim and directly shoot the crystals, forcing them to a lower power level and lifting the invulnerability. Repeatedly shooting the crystal can even break the Hexga, causing it to skip a turn, but its shields must be depleted first. The Hexga's primary attacks include a "Shield-powered combo" that hits a single character multiple times, potentially leading to its "Strange Power" ability, and an "Expedition attack" that sweeps the entire party with physical damage. Defensively, it uses "Power up" to apply shields and "Strange power" to grant shields and escalate its crystal stage. Its most dangerous ability, "Draw strength," applies three shields and immediately shifts its crystals to the invulnerable red state. The longer the fight, the more challenging it becomes if shields and crystal buffs aren't effectively managed. A strategic approach is vital. Players should aim for levels 20-25 and weapon levels 9-10. Characters and weapons with Ice damage are highly effective. Lune's Trebuchim and Maelle's Sekarum or Medalum are recommended for their Stain generation, AP gain, and shield-breaking capabilities. The strategy involves a continuous cycle: deplete shields, then damage the crystal to prevent the red state, while applying status effects like Burn and Mark to maximize damage. Free-aim shots are crucial for controlling the crystal's power. Verso can support with buffs, while Maelle's Virtuose Stance and Breaking Rules skill are excellent for shield removal. Lune should focus on building Stains and unleashing powerful elemental skills. Successfully defeating the Chromatic Hexga rewards players with the Energising Revive Pictos.
