There are more than three characters in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33<\/strong><\/em>, but players can only choose three to make a team with. The others can act as backups if the first team falls, but ultimately, players would want to make the best teams in Expedition 33<\/em><\/strong> to defeat any enemies that block their way. Although the game started out simple, the possibilities for different builds and party setups became much larger later on, once the expeditioners can freely explore the Continent and its areas.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Players can experiment with different things, like using Lune as a DPS, using Monoco as a support, or abusing Sciel’s supportive skills to make a team that moves multiple times before the enemy. It\u2019s not a coincidence that Lune is on most teams in this list. Her versatility and utility allow her to fit into any team in <\/strong>Expedition 33<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

This best team comp in Expedition 33<\/em> article focuses on late-game builds<\/strong> for players to destroy difficult enemies, like those in the Endless Tower.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Updated on December 14, 2025, by Nahda Nabiilah:<\/strong> New equipment from Verso’s Drafts unlocks new playstyles, allowing support characters to take the lead in dealing damage, and DPS units to help from the background. With the new weapons and Luminas available, it’s important to update the list of the best teams in Expedition 33.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n Lune + Maelle + Verso
\n <\/h2>\n

\n Burning Team
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"lune-maelle-and\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

While Verso barely has any skills that synergize with the Burn status, he\u2019s one of the best characters that apply Burn in Clair Obscur Expedition 33<\/em>. Add Maelle and Lune, who both have a core gameplay with Fire and Burn, and players will build a strong Burn team in Expedition 33<\/em>. This team focuses on single-target damage<\/strong> and can be slow during combat, but it prioritizes safety while enemies are slowly falling to Burn damage.<\/p>\n

\n Verso
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Verso\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Building Verso with Corpeso<\/span> grants him the ability to install an enormous amount of Burn status on enemies using his Base Attack. Players can build an arsenal of Luminas that buff Verso\u2019s Base Attack, maximizing the utility of these hits. As for Verso\u2019s skills, it\u2019s better to have some sustain skills since players won\u2019t use them as long as Verso is healthy and kicking. <\/p>\n

\n Maelle
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"clair-obscur-expedition-33-maelle\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Since Verso is the one who\u2019s installing Burn, Maelle could be the one who takes advantage of it. Other than her Fire skills, Maelle has Burning Canvas<\/span>, a Void attack that scales with the amount of Burn status on the target. To further increase the Burn utility, Maelle has Degagement<\/span>, which makes enemies weak to Fire. She also has Medalum<\/span>, a weapon that doubles the amount of Burn she applies and its damage. <\/p>\n

\t\t\tHow To Level Up Fast In Clair Obscur: Expedition 33<\/p>\n<\/h5>\n

Grinding out levels is a part of every RPG, and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is no different. Here is how players can level up the quickest. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

On the other hand, since this team won\u2019t have a dedicated sustain character, nor someone who applies Shell for the team, it\u2019s good to build Maelle with Guard Up to increase her team\u2019s sustainability.<\/p>\n

\n Lune
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Lune\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Considering Verso is responsible for applying Burn while Maelle will deal high damage because of it, Lune\u2019s job is to break enemies and double the amount of Burn on them. This will skyrocket the amount of Burn on enemies and the damage it deals. With her Earth skills, Lune is more than capable of handling this role while making sure everyone in the team is healed and protected.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n Verso + Monoco + Sciel
\n <\/h2>\n

\n Verso One-shot Team
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"monoco-sciel-and-verso-team-compostition-in-clair-obscur-expedition-33\"\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

In this team comp, instead of Verso dealing damage with his Base Attack and Burning damage, he’ll fully focus on his Steeled Strike<\/span>, which charges for two turns. Monoco will set the field ready for Verso by applying his buffs and debuffs. On the other hand, Sciel takes the responsibility of increasing Verso’s damage and makes sure he plays more often. Meanwhile, every time it’s Verso’s turn, he’ll unleash one devastating Steeled Strike<\/span> after another. <\/p>\n

\n Verso
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Verso\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

When Verso uses Licorum<\/strong>, Frenzy<\/strong>, and Double Third<\/strong>, they greatly increase the damage of his Steeled Strike<\/span> skill. The weapons and Luminas absolutely take his strike to the next level and allow Verso to delete enemies during combat. In a perfect rotation, Verso should get his turn with 9 AP on the S Rank. Players can then cast Steeled Strike<\/span> and charge it to the next turn, which is immediately after because of the Cheater<\/span> Lumina. <\/p>\n

In case Verso’s turn started and he didn’t have 9 AP or the S Rank, players can cast Overload<\/span>, and that skill will refill Verso’s AP and maximize his Rank. Since Cheater<\/span> is already a core Lumina for Verso, players can include a couple of other Luminas that take advantage of Verso getting back his turn. Clea’s Life<\/strong>, for instance, nullifies the price Verso pays when using the Overload<\/span> skill. <\/p>\n

\n Monoco
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Clair\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The most important skill for Monoco in this team is the Boucheclier Fortify<\/span>, as it will heavily buff their allies and fill their AP. It’s also important to make sure the wheel will always land on the Heavy Mask. That will trigger Esquiaro’s second effect and give all Monoco’s allies a shield. With Boucheclier Fortify<\/span> and Esquiaro’s shields always active, Monoco can operate as a shielder in this team on top of everything else he’s doing. <\/p>\n

Players also need a character that can apply Defenseless on enemies. Since Monoco’s weapon needs Base Attack to roll the wheel back to the Heavy Mask, players can add the Defenseless effect to Monoco’s Base Attack. You can also add the Hexga Crush<\/span> skill, which will apply the Defeneless debuff on enemies for 3 to 5 turns. <\/p>\n

\n Sciel
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Sciel\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Sciel can deal decent damage, but that’s not why she’s here. The reason Sciel is in this E33<\/em> team is to double Verso’s damage and give him his turn immediately after, using Fortune’s Fury<\/span> and Intervention<\/span> skills. It’s important to make sure that Verso is faster than Sciel, so that she can give Verso his turn right after he finishes his. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n Lune + Monoco + Sciel
\n <\/h2>\n

\n Breaking Team
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"lune-monoco-and\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

In this Expedition 33<\/em> breaking team, Lune and Monoco will work together to fill the enemies\u2019 break bar while Sciel doubles Lune\u2019s damage, giving her the turn back. All three characters have sustainability, buffs, and debuffs within their kits, further increasing the team\u2019s synergy.<\/p>\n

\t\t\tClair Obscur: Expedition 33 – Every Playable Character, Ranked<\/p>\n<\/h5>\n

With six battle-ready characters, who among them reigns supreme in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The team\u2019s idea here is to keep enemies slowed and stunned until Lune builds enough power to erase them.<\/p>\n

\n Lune
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\"lune_clair_obscur_expedition_33\"\n <\/picture>
Lune from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Starting from Lune, she needs to set her Terraquake<\/span> skill for Monoco to deal more break damage. After that, Lune needs to slow enemies using her Crippling Tsunami<\/span> skill. <\/p>\n

While she\u2019s doing all that, her weapon, Scaverim<\/span>, will build Dark Stains<\/strong>, a strong effect that greatly amplifies Lune\u2019s damage. Keep in mind, the weapon’s first effect generates Dark Stains every time Lune consumes her active Stains. After generating three Dark Stains, Lune won\u2019t be able to generate a fourth one unless she can use a skill that consumes one Stain only, such as Electrify<\/span>. After building four Dark Stains, which will be easy for Lune if the enemy is constantly slowed down, broken, and stunned, she can unleash an attack with insane damage that can one-shot everything in its path. <\/p>\n

\n Monoco
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Clair\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Monoco\u2019s build in this team comp is all about quickly breaking the enemy\u2019s bar. For that, equip skills like Ramasseur Bonk<\/span>, Portier Crash<\/span>, and Stalact Punches<\/span>. On the other hand, players can still use Monoco to give the team a shield and Shell. Although Monoco\u2019s DPS will take a big hit in this build, they\u2019ll still be able to fully protect the team by shielding them and stopping the opponent from launching attacks frequently. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to keep a rotation between Ramasseur Bonk<\/span> and Boucheclier Fortify<\/span>, as both skills will always move the Bestial Wheel pointer to the required Mask. If Monoco breaks an enemy Bar, Urnaro<\/span> will switch Monoco into the Almighty Mask. Here, use Ramasseur Bonk<\/span>, and Monoco will be at the Agile Mask again. <\/p>\n

\n Sciel
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Clair\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

As for Sciel, she\u2019s responsible for increasing the team\u2019s speed while maximizing Lune\u2019s damage. Not only that, with her Intervention<\/span>, Lune will always play four turns per rotation, especially because of her Cheater<\/span> Lumina. It gets addicting to see Sciel giving all this damage and turns to Lune in Clair Obscur Expedition 33<\/em>. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n Lune + Maelle + Monoco
\n <\/h2>\n

\n AoE Team
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"lune-maelle-and\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The idea behind teaming Lune, Maelle, and Monoco together is to deliver as many AoE attacks as possible. These three characters can apply a lot of buffs and debuffs while delivering strong AoE hits. Not only that, but Maelle, Lune, and Monoco are all amazing at increasing the team\u2019s survivability, which makes this team devastating in its offensive duties and rock solid in its defensive ones.<\/p>\n

\n Lune
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"clair-obscur-lune\"\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Lune has a lot of AoE skills, and she can heal the entire team, cleanse, or even revive. Players can build Lune with Crippling Tsunami<\/span> and Elemental Genesis<\/span> to carry her DPS while getting ready for her Sky Break<\/span> every time the team gets three Gradient Charges. Lune should carry the Scaverim<\/span>weapon to further maximize her damage when she collects four Dark Stains. <\/p>\n

\n Maelle
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Maelle\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Guard Down<\/span>is one of the best debuffing skills in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33<\/em>. Keeping enemies defenceless and increasing the team\u2019s Critical Chance by 25% through the Critical Vulnerability Lumina is always going to be helpful during combat. <\/p>\n

\t\t\tClair Obscur Expedition 33: Best Lune Weapons, Ranked<\/p>\n<\/h5>\n

Players curious about the best weapons for Lune in Clair Obscur Expedition 33 may want to start with the following weapons.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Players can use Maelle\u2019s Phantom Strike<\/span> every time she\u2019s in her Offensive or Virtuose Stances to deal high damage while charging the team\u2019s Gradient meter. Against bosses, Maelle can still deal incredible damage by using Pyrolyse<\/span>and Sword Ballet<\/span>. <\/p>\n

\n Monoco
\n <\/h3>\n
\n
\n \"Clair\n <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Monoco’s skills are upgraded through the Bestial Wheel mechanics. In this Expedition 33<\/em> team comp, Monaco will have a rotation between Heavy Mask and Agile Mask skills. The Bestial Wheel pointer will always move between those two Masks. The main idea for Monoco\u2019s skills is to keep applying Boucheclier Fortify<\/span>, which will Shell all allies and give the Powerful buff, which will trigger Monoco\u2019s Luminas that increase the team\u2019s AP for applying Shell and Powerful. The pointer will then go to the Agile Mask. Use one of the two Agile Mask skills, and the pointer will always come back to the Heavy Mask. <\/p>\n

If players didn\u2019t start on one of those two Masks, players can simply use either Sakapatate Fire<\/span> or Orphelin Cheers<\/span> to get back on them and start the rotation. Both of these skills are very useful and can deal a lot of damage. <\/p>\n
