Kickoff Quest: Esquie’s Nest and the First Gestral
Stone Wave Cliffs: Sneak Past the Bourgeon
Next up, make your way to the entrance of Stone Wave Cliffs. Instead of diving straight into the main path, take a detour to the right-hand side. You’ll run into a pesky Bourgeon here—I tackled it at a low level and it was a grind, but you can always come back later when you’re stronger. Once you’ve dealt with it (or sneaked by), the second Lost Gestral is waiting just past the battle spot on the right-hand path. Snag it and keep moving!
White Tree Island: Swim to Gestral Glory
Forgotten Battlefield: Snowy Trails to Gestral 4
Once you’ve cleared the Forgotten Battlefield but before heading into Monoco’s Station, take a quick detour. As the scenery shifts from grassy to snowy, look to the right-hand side of the station’s entrance. Tucked between a couple of trees, the fourth Lost Gestral is out in the open, waiting for you. You can always revisit this spot later with new abilities, so no rush if you’re not ready yet!
Coastal Cave: Coral Swimming for Gestral 5
Time to dive deeper—literally! After unlocking the ability to swim through coral (you’ll get this post-Monoco’s Station), swim to the right-hand side near the Coastal Cave entrance. Don’t head to the main island just yet—there’s a small beach on the north side. Hop off Esquie, step onto the beach, and interact with the fifth Lost Gestral. You’re halfway through all 9 Lost Gestral Locations in Clair Obscur Expedition 33—nice work!
Old Lumiere Exit: Battle Mimes for Gestral 6
Once you’ve exited Old Lumiere (a main story milestone), swim northwest to a small island. You’ll need to swim through coral to reach it, but watch out—there are two Mimes guarding the area! I fought them at level 28, and it took 10 minutes and 75 parries—they’re tough! Break their shields to deal damage, or come back at a higher level for an easier fight. Once they’re down, head to the far end of the island to find the sixth Lost Gestral. You’re killing it!
