In Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, each character comes with unique abilities and playstyles. Players have the opportunity to explore various combinations with different Pictos and Luminas, allowing for a broad range of strategies and creativity. Each character, such as Maelle, features both supportive and offensive skills that players can utilize based on their gameplay preferences.

Maelle’s unique ability is her adaptation to multiple Stances. In her Offensive Stance, she inflicts increased damage but also receives more damage. Conversely, her Defensive Stance reduces damage taken and grants an additional AP for successful Parries or Dodges. In her Virtuose Stance, she can deal higher damage without sustaining any drawbacks. Players should be strategic about switching Maelle into her Virtuose Stance before activating powerful skills such as Percee. Early in the game, there’s a straightforward way to start a battle with Maelle already in Virtuose Stance, which requires knowledge of how to acquire Medalum in Expedition 33.

How to Acquire Medalum in Expedition 33

Players have two main methods for obtaining Medalum in Expedition 33:

• Defeat «The Stranger» as Maelle in the Arena located in Gestral Village during the main storyline.
• Overcome Golgra in four different duel scenarios: at the Chief’s House, at the Sacred River (as part of an expeditioner’s friendship quest), in the Dark Gestral Arena, and finally, returning to Gestral Village.

Medalum Weapon in Expedition 33

Medalum stands out as a top-tier weapon for Maelle in Expedition 33. When she’s positioned in her Virtuose Stance, Maelle achieves impressive DPS, benefiting from both the enhanced damage of the Stance and the generally higher damage output of her early skills. She typically starts battles without any stance, but the quickest path to Virtuose Stance is by applying a burn effect to the enemy and then activating Swift Stride.

Utilizing Medalum to achieve the Virtuose Stance instantly can enable players to reach a damage output of 9999 fairly early in the game, advantageous for taking down challenging foes and accomplishing tasks like Ono Puncho’s 9999 damage challenge within Expedition 33. As players progress, this weapon can even help Maelle surpass the 9999 damage threshold.

In the early stages of the game, the following strategies can be applied when using Medalum in Expedition 33:

As players advance into the late game, they can utilize Medalum to assemble a burn-focused team composition in Expedition 33.
