How To Complete the Crimson Forest in Clair Obscur Expedition 33
Collectibles and Statues
The Crimson Forest is pretty straightforward at the beginning. Enter the forest and continue on across the platforms ahead. As you cross the platforms and reach the bridge, look down to your left to find hidden 5435x Chroma. Climb back up and continue on ahead past the grapple point to find your first Expedition Flag of the area.
From the flag, head to the right and drop down the golden rope to find 5435x Chroma in a small cave. Exit the cave and take the next rope leading below to find a Colour of Lumina to your right. Parkour across the pillars nearby and climb the statue to reach a golden rope. Take the rope up, and you will reach an intersection. First, we go right – jump across the wooden planks to your right to find the second Colour of Lumina.
Get back to the intersection and go straight to reach the first statue lever. Activate this lever and grapple across the gap on your left. Defeat the enemies and navigate the platforms ahead to the other end of the cliff for your third Colour of Lumina.
Drop down the gap right below (you won’t die, don’t worry) to find the second statue level and a Resplendent Chroma Catalyst. Enter the cave on your right and navigate through the singular path till you reach a junction with the knights. Take the left to find a Colour of Lumina and a Resplendent Chroma Catalyst on the path. You will also reach the second Expedition Flag along the way. Follow the path right from the flag to reach the third statue lever. Activate this lever to unlock the boss.

Defeating the Boss

The Chromatic Gold Chevaliere is the final boss of this area. This is a trio of enemies, all of whom are weak to Light. Verso’s Phantom Stars skill is a great way to target the trio all at once for some moderate damage. To ensure that Verso always has the 9 AP needed for this, we recommend pairing him up with Monoco and using the Potier Energy skill to bestow AP on Verso. Managing Verso’s AP is crucial in this fight and is key to victory.
When it comes to defending yourself, the Fire Attack is the attack you need to watch for. In this, the Knight in the middle marches forward and launches a 6-hit combo. The first 4 are horizontal swings, while the last two are vertical slices. The switch from horizontal to vertical has a slight delay, so press the parry key only when the sword begins descending. The timings on this are easy, but we still recommend dodging it the first time to get a feel for it. This is the main attack you need to watch for, with the others being fairly predictable. Parry, counterattack, and wipe the boss out with the Phantom Stars.
