Osquio Location In Clair Obscur Expedition 33
Osquio is located in Verso’s Draft in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. He resides in a special domain called Root of All Evil.
After reaching Reverie Path, which is beyond the Gestral’s carnival area, players should see a Gestral merchant nearby.
Overlooking the Expedition 33 merchant is Osquio’s home, Root of All Evil.
Go closer, then use the train to reach Osquio.
Once inside, you’ll soon find an expedition flag to rest at. Look ahead for a set of stairs leading to an arena-like area. After approaching the place, a cutscene with Osquio will play, commencing the boss fight.
How To Beat Osquio In Clair Obscur Expedition 33
Osquio’s boss fight in Expedition 33 has two phases. Apart from his massive HP pool and fast attacks, the boss fight is pretty easy. Here are some things worth noting:
- After entering Phase 2, Osquio’s hits will apply Barbapapa if they land, so make sure to prioritize dodging.
- Barbapapa causes attacks and skills to deal 1 DMG, as long as the stack exists. Use multi-hit attacks to remove it quickly. Aimed Shots will not reduce Barbapapa debuff.
- After you beat Osquio in Phase 2, he will initiate a Gradient attack that can wipe out the team. Make sure to time the Gradient counter; otherwise, you’ll lose the fight.
