Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Relationship Levels, explained – All rewards and requirements

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a breath of fresh air in the RPG genre, and may change the way gamers feel about turn-based combat forever. The debut game from Sandfall Interactive is full of JRPG tropes and clearly inspired by the games that came before it, but it also does a lot of great things unique to itself. Though it is, in the end, an RPG, and so there are some things we've come to expect from titles in the genre. Just like in other RPGs like it, there are ways to befriend your party members, and sometimes be a little bit more than friends. Either way, it takes understanding of Relationship Levels in Expedition 33, and that's what we're here to help with. What are Relationship Levels in Expedition 33? Screenshot by Destructoid In Expedition 33, Relationship Levels are ranked up with individual party members that reward everything from new Gradient Attacks, to special cutscenes, to even some romance. It's an indication of the friendship level that the main character has with Maelle, Lune, Sciel, Monoco, and Esquie. As you play through the game's three acts, you can progress Relationship Levels to make sure you get the most out of every bit of dialogue in the game, along with some special additions that make every scene worth it in the end.

Whenever you go to camp, talk to each member individually. If you can level up with them, you will be presented with the option to spend time with them. Some of the conversations are timegated with the story line, but make sure to keep talking with them and exhaust all dialogue options, and always talk to each individual member at camp until the prompt to spend time with them no longer appears.
