Key Items - Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Database

You will need to speak to the three kids in the Prologue at the harbour to receive this. You cannot progress the story without collecting it.

Once you have access to The Continent you can write in the journal at Camp about key events in the story.

A quest item found right at the start of the game, in the Prologue.

Speak with the man in red when heading down to the harbor in the Prologue. He will hand over the uniform and ask you to deliver it.

Give it to the boy, Jules, at night in Lumiere harbour to get the Crimson Uniform for Gustave.

A token usable at the Festival to get prizes. You can use these during the Prologue to trade for certain items that are unavailable elsewhere. If you’re a lore junkie or an achievement/trophy hunter, make sure to pick up the Old Key; you’ll need it to access a journal later in the game which contains interesting lore and is tied to the Follow The Path Acheivement/ Trophy.

A heart melting in lava.

Ink harvested from a Chromatic Nevron.

A lost Démineur mine.

Gestrals kids are fond of good old wooden swords.

Purchased for 1000 Chroma from the back of the Gestral market, from the large Gestral with green hair.

Facing the chief’s house at Gestral Village, go to the left and hug the right wall Turn right at the fork, and you’ll find a rope. Take that up, go to the end, and jump across to a pillar where there is a Gestral boy sitting on the edge. Speak to the boy to receive the Sakapatate (Lune) outfit as a reward.

Unfortunatley, there seems to be a bug affecting some players, meaning that the dialogue with boy at the top of the pillar doesn’t trigger, even if you have the Wooden Stick in your inventory. We haven’t found a way around the bug if it does occur, but it will likely be fixed in a patch.

Credit to GG user CrtJester for helping us get to the bottom of this.

Several pieces of wood that do not fit together. They all have shiny bindings.

Inflammable material.

During your expedition through Spring Meadows, you will come across a chatty Nevron called Jar. This is the first of many friendly Nevrons you will meet across The Continent. The Resin is the item Jar is looking for, so once you have located it, return to Jar at the Abandoned Expeditioner Camp. If you need help tracking the Resin down, follow the Interactive Map Location below.

An odd-looking mushroom. The fact that it glows means it probably should not be consumed.

An old key for an old door.

Although you receive the Old Key in the Prologue, you’re not able to use it until Act II of the story when you visit Old Lumière, many hours later. After you reach the Left Street Expedition Flag with Maelle and Verso, head through the broken archway and look to your right. You’ll see a crane hook overhead, and a large broken pipe jutting out of the wall with a glowing purple item pickup perched on it. Grab the item while you’re here (a very handy Polished Chroma Catalyst), and then drop into the inside of the pipe through the hole.

Turn around inside the pipe and you’ll see a corpse and a journal behind metal gate. The gate is locked but, you guessed it, you can use the Old Key to open it and snag the Journal - Fracture Survivor inside. Not the most exciting reward, but if you’re anything like us, you’ll be glad to finally scratch that itch you’ve had since the Prologue. After grabbing the journal, turn around and you’ll find a rope at the end of the pipe to zip you back up top.

The flesh of this Nevron still feels alive.

Go to The Small Bourgeon area on the world map and speak to the tiny creature beneath the large, dead Nevron. You will need to give him Bourgeon Skin to complete his request and then leave the area. Return to the area and speak to him to receive a reward.

This is just one of many Nevrons you’ll run into who are looking for help. For a full breakdown of all Nevron Quests, check out our All Nevron Quests and Rewards guide.

A glistening rock crystal.

A concentrated ice core.

A key. What door does it open?

A canvas portrait of the Dessendre family.

In The Manor there is an empty picture frame on the staircase near the Entry Hall flag. Once you have this item, you can then interact with the frame and place the portrait inside. This will trigger a short cutscene where you will see the previously locked door at the end of the central ground-floor corridor open.

A lamp that can be used to awaken the beast.

A quick inspection is enough to say that this Pictos is unusable as is.

Hand the Weird Pictos to Jujubree, the merchant at the Gestral Village, to receive a reward.
