Best Expedition 33 Weapons for Each Character (2026)

There are over 100 weapons in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Most of them aren’t worth your time. Here’s the short list.

I spent way too many hours testing weapons I eventually dropped, so this guide skips all of that and goes straight to the ones that actually make a difference for each character. Whether you want raw damage, better Stain management, easier stance access, or extended Twilight windows, there’s a clear best-in-slot for every playstyle. Let’s get into it.


A Few Things to Know First

Before the character-by-character breakdown, two mechanics worth understanding quickly.

Weapon scaling uses grades from D to S. Each weapon’s attack power scales with two stats, and each gets a letter grade. S is the best. Don’t stress too much about the grades when you first pick up a weapon, though, because they improve as you upgrade it. A weapon with C-grade scaling at Level 1 might hit A or S by the time you’ve put some Chroma Catalysts into it.
