Bertrand Big Hands - Boss Fight | Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 | Walkthrough, Gameplay, No Commentary

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a turn-based RPG set in a Belle Époque France-inspired world, where a mysterious Paintress annually erases people of a specific age. Players lead Expedition 33 to destroy her before she paints "33," combining traditional turn-based combat with real-time dodges, parries, and combo rhythms. The game features unique characters, crafting, and strategic party management, offering adjustable difficulty. Among the formidable adversaries players face is Bertrand Big Hands, a Gestral arena fighter encountered twice. His initial appearance in Gestral Village is a mandatory, yet relatively simple, main quest battle. Bertrand primarily uses single-strike attacks, easily parried for a quick victory. Even mistimed defenses result in minimal damage, making the fight more of a strategic exercise in using powerful skills to overwhelm him. The true challenge of Bertrand Big Hands awaits in the optional Hidden Gestral Arena, a secret locale west of the Ancient Sanctuary. Here, overseen by Bagara, Bertrand is the second of four solo opponents. His attack patterns are significantly more deceptive. His spinning punch, a lunging right-hand swing, requires precise timing; players must wait for his lunge and arms to form a "T" before dodging or parrying. Another move is a leg sweep, telegraphed by him charging with his head tilted down towards his knees. While more durable in this encounter, he remains vulnerable to well-executed counters. Defeating this tougher Bertrand rewards the invaluable "Accelerating Last Stand" Pictos, granting substantial health and speed boosts. Its unique "Rush" Lumina ability, active when fighting alone, boosts speed by 33%, a critical advantage in the arena's one-on-one battles, making the mastery of Bertrand's deceptive moves essential for solo combatants.
