In Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, having more skill slots unlocked for your characters is essential in order to defeat enemies. In order to do this, you’ll require an item named Color of Lumina. These are not common and hard to obtain, but if you want to create strong characters, they are essential. The following guide will guide you through the most efficient way to farm Color of Lumina, what you’ll need to start, and how to make the process faster and easier.
Best Color of Lumina Farming Location
If you want to increase your characters’ skill slots in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, you’ll have to acquire Color of Lumina. These are limited items that provide you with Lumina Points, which are required to equip additional skills.
Color of Lumina is not that easy to farm. You can find them scattered while exploring, acquire some from quests, rescuing white Neons, returning journals to Gestalt Village, or buying some from vendors occasionally.
Before you can start farming, you’ll need two things:
- Unlock Esquie Underwater Ability
- Chat with Esquie often at your camp until your relationship level is 6.
- She will assign you a quest. Do it, and you’ll unlock diving underwater.
- This is essential for entering the farming site.
- Get Maelle and Her Medalum Weapon
- Maelle must be in your group and have her Medalum weapon.
- To obtain it, defeat Gorga in Gestalt Village. Although some people claim that this is only achievable in Act 2, it’s still achievable in Act 3 just go to her and check if the fight option is available.
- The fight is challenging, but using the correct build, it’s possible.
Lumina Farming Location in Renoir’s Drafts
After you’re ready, go to Renoir’s Drafts, which is an underwater dungeon southeast of the Siren, south of the Monolith. This is dangerous as it’s full of some of the toughest enemies.
Continue down the path where you find a special merchant within the dungeon. This merchant is the focus of your farming run.
- You can engage this merchant repeatedly.
- Every time, he drops 1-2 Color of Lumina.
- He is accompanied by two minions, but if you have the right tactics, you can deal with them all swiftly.
