One of the toughest enemy types you will meet is the Mimes. These Mimes will put your dodging and parrying skills to the test. Defeating them can be challenging, but the rewards are well worth the effort. Here is the list of Clair Obscur Expedition 33 Mime locations and some tips on how to defeat them.
What Are Mimes in Clair Obscur Expedition 33 and How to Beat Them
In Clair Obscur Expedition 33, Mimes are mysterious robotic enemies that initially seem impossible to damage. Your normal attacks and standard skills won’t be able to break through their invisible shield. If you are struggling to defeat them, don’t worry, you might just be missing an important step. Here is the simple strategy to beat the Mimes in Clair Obscur Expedition 33:
- The first thing to do against Mimes is to perfectly dodge or parry their attacks.
- Use skills that deal break damage and tear their defenses, like Gustave’s Overcharge.
- Once broken, Mimes can be damaged with regular attacks.
- Each Mime drops unique cosmetics or items.
All Mime Locations in Clair Obscur Expedition 33
Here are all the Mime locations available in Clair Obscur Expedition 33. Each of them drops a different type of reward. Now let’s hunt down every Mime in the game!
1. Lumiere (Prologue)
Reward: Lumiere record.
The Lumiere mime is found during the prologue section in Lumiere, at the waterfront steps leading to the harbor. Look to the right of the children performing on stage to spot the Mime.
2. Spring Meadows
Reward: Baguette outfit and haircut for Gustave.
The Spring Meadows Mime location can be found by heading left from the Grand Meadow expedition flag. Defeat the spear-wielding Nevron, then grapple up three platforms along the cliffside. Continue until you reach a circular platform where the Mime awaits. This mime will actively follow you when approached.
3. Flying Waters
Reward: Short haircut for Maelle.
After picking up the journal in Expedition 68, continue forward until you spot a massive creature. Turn right, but instead of heading to the platform on the right, pass through the seaweed on the left. Climb up the platform ahead to find the Mime.
4. Ancient Sanctuary
Reward: Baguette outfit and haircut for Lune.
From the Sanctuary Maze expedition flag, after you beat the first boss, head right under the fallen tree branch. Take another right, crawl through the gap in the rock, turn left, and follow the path to an open area with a broken wooden hut. The Mime is behind the hut, near a windmill.
5. Esquie’s Nest
Reward: Baguette outfit and haircut for Sciel.
From the Entrance expedition flag, head down the central corridor. In the first open part of the cave, look to your right. You can jump down from the pathway to reach the Mime there.
6. Yellow Harvest
Reward: Braid haircut for Maelle.
From the Harvester’s Hollow expedition flag, follow the right path. When you encounter a dead Nevron in the middle of a field, look right for a cave opening. Crawl inside the cave until you find a Mime standing inside the cave.
7. Frozen Hearts
Reward: Short haircut for Lune.
Location: Find the Iced Heart expedition flag, then climb the frozen train cars until you reach the top. Look to your right to spot the Mime near some pillars and boxes, as you can see in the above picture.
8. The Continent
Reward: Voluminous haircut for Sciel and Lune.
To find these two Mimes, first you need to exit Old Lumiere and head northwest to find a small island with red grasses. At the center of the island, you’ll find two Mimes waiting for you.
9. Visages
Reward: Baguette outfit and haircut for Verso.
Starting from the Plazza expedition flag, follow the path to the left. Then, from the Joy Vale expedition flag, go left past the leafy bodies tangled in branches, then turn right between the rocks and keep going until you find the Mime hidden on a cliff edge.
10. Sirene
Reward: Sirene haircut for Lune.
From the Sewing Atelier expedition flag, go right up the stairs, then turn right into a dark room. The creepy mime is waiting for you there.
11. Tainted Cliffs
Reward: Voluminous haircut for Maelle.
From the Tainted Cliffs expedition flag, follow the main path up the stairs and the cliffs. When you encounter two sword-wielding enemies patrolling, stay close to the left wall. You’ll find a rope you can climb down, leading to an arena with the Mime and two enemies.
12. Sunless Cliffs
Rewards: The One Picto and Bald Haircut for the character you are using.
At Sunless Cliffs, follow the right path to a cave and use the portal at the end to face the Mime. Only one character can be used here, so be careful when you try to defeat the mime.
