What to do with Weird Pictos in Clair Obscur Expedition 33
Early in Expedition 33, players may encounter something called a strange image. Here is what it can be used for.
How to start Karatom's assignment in Clair Obscur Expedition 33
To start Karatom's mission, players must first reach Gestral Village. From Gestral Village – Entrance Expedition Flag, you must take the first left through Gestral Bazaar and get out on the other side. You come to a large area, and on the left you see a couple of gestures construct the ultimate soppatate.
Karatom is the small gestral NPC that stands at the base of the Sakatatate. Go up to him and engage him in conversation. He will ask you to look for blue mushrooms. Unfortunately you can't get the item yet.
Where do you find blue mushrooms for karatom in Clair Obscur Expedition 33
The Blue Mushroom Quest object is located in another area in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Called Esquie's Nest. However, the area is locked at this point in the story. To gain access to the site, players must first complete the main mission in Gestral Village. This means that you have to talk to the village manager, Golgra, and participate in the Gestral Arena tournament.
Players must meet the three legendary warriors and stranger. After defeating the enemies, talking to Golgra, he will say that the eastern gate from the village is open. Now you are free to access Esquie's Nest site.
Go out of Gestral Village and follow the newly opened road that was previously grinded. Esquie's Nest is located in the east. You will also find a lost Gestral nearby that you can talk to near the entrance to the new location.
When you enter Esquie's Nest you will play straight and a cutting scene. There are a couple of paths here you can bring some items. To grab the blue sponge, you want to go through the main central route.
Soon you will come to a large cave with liquid lanterns. Immediately turn right to find a mime enemy in the lower area. Go down and walk past the mime to find the blue sponge in the water. Once you have recorded it, you can use the climbing points near the bridge and go back as you came to get back to Gestral Village and deliver the object to the karatom. But the assignment is not over yet.
How to beat the ultimate Sakatatate in Clair Obscur Expedition 33
To hand over the item to karatom in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 complete part of the assignment. For the second part, you have to put on the ultimate shame that you helped to build. To make things worse, this is a one-on-one duel between the ultimate soppatate and Gustaven. It also hits as a truck and has a variety of features, so you want to make your parries perfect for taking it down.
The fight has three distinct phases where the enemy adds new features to its arsenal. The first phase has only two attacks that players need to worry about:
-
-
“Ultimate Sakatate melts the ground”
A sludge attack with its weapon that is difficult to parry. We recommend that you avoid this when you see the prompt. If it connects, it applies a ground -debuff.
When you manage to get the manager's health down to about 75% HP, it will enter the second phase. You will see a message flash over your screen “Ultimate Sakatate takes the fight seriously and raises its shield”. It will receive two more attacks at this point of the fight.
With less than half of its health remaining, the ultimate shame patent will enter the last phase of the fight. The text message will read “Ultimate Sakatate releases its full force” and will have an extra move:
-
-
“Ultimate Sakatate launches some strange electric things”
The ultimate shame patent will launch some electrical projectiles that can deal with a lot of damage. The timing is not that difficult to parry, but Dodging is also an option if you do not feel completely safe.
Since this is a one-on-one-duel, you want to equip pictures that heal you. Alternatively, Gustave has some healing skills that may be worth using. The manager is resistant to electrical damage, which can pull out the fight. However, overcharging is still your best friend in this fight, so you can break the enemy when the bar is filled.
When you are broken, you have a chance to aim for the left axis on the Sakatatate to hit its weak point. After landing a few hits, the manager will lose his shield, and the rest of the fight becomes much easier.
The manager will recover quickly, so make sure you quickly take out the weak point with free goals.
