Phase 1 Prep: Build Your Dream Team to Defeat Simon in Clair Obscur Expedition 33
Phase 1 Strategy: Master Simon’s Attacks
Phase 2 Chaos: Double Hits and HP Drops
Phase 2 Damage: Unleash Maelle’s 40M Powerhouse
In Phase 2, Loonie’s turn is clutch to defeat Simon in Clair Obscur Expedition 33. Skip attacking directly—focus on applying Defenseless to Simon to set up Maelle’s nuke. Sciel should use Fortune’s Fury to boost Maelle’s damage if she’s got two turns (ignore her second turn if not). When everything’s lined up—Gradient Charge full and Simon debuffed—Maelle’s Cleaning Attack: The Launch can deal a jaw-dropping 40 million damage! After that, switch her back to Virtuoso Stance to keep the momentum going.
Handling Simon’s Mirror Attacks: Stay Sharp
Final Push: Seal the Deal with Maelle’s Nuke
Pro Build Tips: Gear Up to Defeat Simon in Clair Obscur Expedition 33
For this fight, I built Maelle for pure attack power with a 100% critical hit rate (just enough Luck, then all-in on attack stats). Sciel’s all about support and speed control for more turns, while Loonie focuses on Gradient Charge via standard attacks and debuffs like Gradient Reversal. My weapons prioritized speed and defense control for the team, with Maelle’s gear maxed for raw damage.

Avoid the Wipe: Simon’s Nasty Tricks
Simon’s no joke—he can remove defeated party members entirely and one-shot you with ease. Focus on speed to get more turns, and stack defense to survive his HP-dropping shenanigans. If he wipes your main squad, you’ll need a backup team for Phase 3, so prep them just in case. With the right setup, though, you can take him down before it gets that far!
