After discovering the truth behind the Canvas, Expedition 33 now fights to save their world from total annihilation at the hands of the real Renoir. It will be a tough battle, which is why we recommend exploring the Continent and farming better gear before facing the end. With Esquie’s flight ability, you can visit new areas like the Dark Shores. This is where Expedition 33 first landed on their mission, and the Painted Renoir wiped out the whole team.

It is a small area full of Chroma and Nevrons, like the Noir. Run towards the end, and you can spot the In Media Res Pictos being guarded by a couple of Noirs. Defeat these enemies and grab the Pictos, then leave the area.

Rather than providing your party members with strength bursts, the In Media Res Pictos prioritizes defense. Instead of buffing your health bars, you will lose half of your full health in exchange for three shields. Shields are a defensive buff that can protect any party member from any hit.
