Introduction: Start Strong in Expedition 33
If you're diving into Expedition 33: Clair Obscur and wondering which Pictos to pick up early, you're in the right place. This quick and casual guide breaks down the most useful Pictos you can grab during Act 1, with exact spots and quick tips to help you get them without too much backtracking. Whether you're into boosting your opening combat options or just don’t want to miss key abilities, these Pictos will set you up for success.
From Spring Meadows to the beachside arc, here’s a rundown of the top Pictos in Act 1 and where you can find them.
Burning Shots – Spring Meadows Entry Point
One of the earliest and easiest Pictos to grab is Burning Shots, located right near the entrance to Spring Meadows. As you enter the area, watch for the flares shooting up—that’s your signal you’re in the right spot. Head towards that section and you’ll spot the Picto tucked nearby. It's perfect for early fire-based damage and makes initial encounters smoother.
Marking Shots – Left Path in Flying Waters
As you explore Flying Waters, take the left path where you’ll notice an enemy clinging to a wall. Right in that vicinity, you’ll be able to scoop up the Marking Shots Picto. It’s great for tagging enemies and setting up combos. Keep an eye out because it’s easy to miss if you're rushing past that section.
Exposing Attack – Vendor’s Secret in Flying Waters
About halfway through Flying Waters, you’ll run into a vendor. But don’t just shop—battle him. Winning the fight unlocks his secret inventory where you’ll find Exposing Attack, a valuable Picto that reduces enemy defenses. It’s a must-have if you want to hit harder in early encounters and get ahead in Act 1.
Roulette – Gestral Village Casino Riddle
In Gestral Village, head down a corridor leading to a casino-style room. You’ll meet a gambler through a door who asks a riddle. The correct answer? “I don’t care.” Nail that, and he hands over the Roulette Picto. This one adds a random effect element to your battles—fun and risky, but powerful.
First Strike – Stone Wave Cliffs Hidden Spot
While moving through Stone Wave Cliffs, look out for a battle against a blade-type enemy. After defeating it, check the area near the odd-looking chimney structure. That’s where you’ll find the First Strike Picto. As the name suggests, it gives you an advantage right at the start of combat, making your first hit count more.
Energising Start 1 – Coastal Arc in the Open World
As you explore the open world section, aim for the beach area with a noticeable arc structure. At the base of this arc, you’ll come across the Energising Start 1 Picto. It’s perfect for giving your character a boost right as battles begin—ideal for maintaining momentum between encounters.
Conclusion: Get Ahead Early with These Must-Have Pictos
These six Pictos—Burning Shots, Marking Shots, Exposing Attack, Roulette, First Strike, and Energising Start 1—are the most effective to grab during Act 1 of Expedition 33: Clair Obscur. Each one gives you a useful combat edge, whether it’s dealing extra damage, revealing weak spots, or enhancing your opening moves. Grabbing them early means smoother progression and more flexibility in your strategy.
Keep this guide handy as you move through Act 1, and check back for more updates and walkthroughs as the game unfolds.
