Embarking on a journey in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is an exciting adventure, but to face the challenges ahead, you'll need to keep your gear in top shape. Upgrading your weapons is a crucial part of progressing in the game and ensuring your survival against the formidable foes you'll encounter. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about enhancing your arsenal.

So, how do you upgrade your weapons in Expedition 33? The short answer is that you'll need to find an NPC called the Curator at your camp. You'll unlock the Curator a few hours into the main story. Once you've found them, you can exchange materials called Chroma Catalysts for powerful weapon upgrades.

Finding the Curator and Upgrading Your Weapons

To get started with weapon upgrades, you'll first need to progress through the main story until you unlock the ability to set up a camp. I remember when I first started playing, I was so focused on exploring that I almost missed the tutorial on setting up a camp. Once I finally did, I discovered the Curator, and it was a game-changer. My trusty but weak starting sword became a powerhouse after just a few upgrades.

Once you can set up a camp, you'll find the Curator there, ready to assist you. Simply approach them and select the option to upgrade your weapons. You'll then be presented with a menu showing your current weapons and the available upgrades. Each upgrade will require a specific type and amount of Chroma Catalysts. These catalysts can be found throughout the world, dropped by enemies, or earned by completing quests. I once spent a whole evening just grinding for a specific type of Chroma Catalyst to get the final upgrade for my favorite rifle. It was a bit of a slog, but the feeling of finally getting that upgrade and one-shotting an enemy I'd struggled with before was totally worth it.

As you upgrade your weapons, you'll notice a significant increase in their damage output and other stats. Some upgrades may even add new abilities or effects to your weapons, so be sure to experiment with different upgrade paths to find what best suits your playstyle. Don't be afraid to switch things up and try out different weapon and upgrade combinations.
