Clair Obscur Expedition 33 takes pride in its intricate turn-based combat mechanics, letting you explore it to the fullest in intense boss battles, which are plentiful. You get to test your mettle and mastery of the combat against some of the toughest enemies, but no amount of prep prepares you to face the Chromatic Hexga. 

Built like a giant boulder, the Chromatic Hexga is one of the tougher enemies you face in the game. The boss is not only a boulder visually, but also mechanically. Most of the attacks you land on this creature deal no damage, and you may be left feeling hopeless. The boss’ resistance to attacks is exacerbated by the hard-hitting offense it deals out. 

The Chromatic Hexga is a tricky one to beat, and tests your knowledge of the mechanics and abilities more so than your skill. If you’re struggling to beat the Chromatic Hexga, this guide will go over how to find and beat the Chromatic Hexga boss in Clair Obscur Expedition 33.

The Chromatic Hexga boss is incredibly resistant to fire and will take no damage at all from this element. Furthermore, it also brings a shield with it that makes it nigh-invincible. If you wish to have any chance at beating the boss, you first need to remove the shield. Maelle is the perfect shield-breaker character, and her Breaking Rules ability should help you break past the shield. 

Once the shield is off, use free aim to aim for the large glowing crystals on the boss’ body. These are weak spots, and shooting them will take away a chunk of HP. After this, we will target the boss using its weakness — ice. Use Ice-based weapons and attacks to chip away at its HP and clinch victory.
