After surviving Renoir’s assault on the beach, Gustave wakes up in Spring Meadows by himself. Navigate the area to reach the first Lancelier and take the path to the right by the Meadows Expedition Flag rest point. You can spot the Pictos on the ground ripe for the taking.

Alternatively, you can use your hard-earned Chroma to buy this Pictos from a Gestral Merchant. Visit the Endless Night Sanctuary and find Anthonypo, the local merchant. Before you can buy this item, you must first defeat this merchant in a duel. Select your strongest party member and have 100,050 Chroma on your person to buy the Critical Burn Pictos.

This Pictos Requires the Burning Status Effect the Most

Critical hits are much more effective and efficient than base attacks and other abilities. The best part about this item is that if an enemy is inflicted with the burn status effect, your critical hits will deal much more damage. We recommend assigning the Pictos to either Maelle or Sciel; both are hard hitters, and their skills often land critical hits.

This is a brief overview of the Critical Burn Pictos:
