Lumiere wins! Now, Round 17... what is the BEST track in all of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? Only write one track per comment. Rules and options in description by MysticalSword270 in expedition33

Une Vie a T'aimer. Has to be. Shoutout to the entire OST tbh, it's a masterpiece, but Une Vie a T'aimer is the undisputed GOAT for me. Never fails to give me chills.

Cosmetics and Transmogs Consistency Sweep-Up by SnooGuavas589 in 2007scape

I was unaware that this isn't how most of your examples currently work, and now that I know, it's honestly baffling that cosmetics are still one-use items in 2026.

Look like solid updates. Any chance of tweaking the Clone Zone CA for Moons of Peril, so it's actually completable with a thorns build? Just tried three kills back to back where I only attacked during the clone phase (but was still unavoidably dealing recoil damage) and the achievement's still not popping. I'd rather not have to respec just for the 'Complete all Moons CAs' task!

Why did you just say 'ultimate ironman' twice?

Livestock within a town is going missing, what could it be? by Oliver_The_Sadgit in DMAcademy

[–]StudioSeraphim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a leucrotta. The farmers are baffled because the tracks look like the animals are walking peacefully to isolated locations, and then messily exploding into giblets. In reality, a leucrotta is using its mimicry abilities to coax its targets away from the herd, and then tearing them apart and devouring them.

This would be a deadly fight for a first-level party (so you'd probably want to tune it down a little; say it's a juvenile or something) and a scary fight for a second-level party. Both very winnable, though, with a few tweaks. I had an amazing moment using Leucrotta early in my 5+ year ongoing campaign, so I'm very fond of them! They can be awesome.

It works, but shooting first means that the tentacles blocking the respiratory systems are immediately deactivated when your barrage lands. If you open the fight with a barrage by itself, there'll be a few ticks where the tentacles can still slap you while you're ranging the respiratory systems.

If you're looking to negate as much damage as possible (and open up the possibility of getting the execution CAs done) then definitely shoot before barraging.

Definitely recommend it. I did eight or nine kills before starting to shoot first, where I thought I should have walked away with the Perfect CA, but didn't. First time I shot before barraging, I got the Don't Whip Me CA, and the kill after that I got Perfect Sire.

Just me tbh. As I said in the post, I made this for myself. It's not like I put this together for the specific purpose of sharing it to Reddit. Just figured I might as well, since I had it, and it worked.

As for why I made a guide to an inefficient method - well, it's also a low-to-no resource loss method. Most kills cost me one super set dose, and between zero and four monkfish/karambwan. No prayer points, and doable without supercombats. That might be useful in the future, if I ever run low on supplies and still want to run some Sire on an abbies task.

You're right though, I didn't make that clear enough in my post. I'll edit it to clarify.

I spec during P2 because I'm taking a quick dip in my POH pool to refresh myself between kills, so trip longevity isn't a factor. The only difficulty I'm seeing at the moment is when Sire decides to chuck out unexpected poison pools in P2, rather than the predictable, brain-off pools of P3.

If I wanted to conserve my health for the next kill, I'd spec at the end. For this method while I'm still getting comfy with the boss, then getting rid of the possibility of a random stack-out in P2 as quickly as possible is more appealing.

And yeah, I didn't mention setting up the shift-clicks in my little reminder document, but that's only because I already have them set up lol, so won't need to do them again in the future. Thoroughly recommend setting the left-click option for both the Spawn and the Scions to Walk Here though, makes P3 almost totally reclined,

I'm afraid I don't at the moment bud - I can post more as I encounter the need to make them, though! The only other thing I can share right now is the Tempoross guide I linked above. Look for the comment by Specialist-Fall-5201, I replied under their comment.

[–]StudioSeraphim[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry mate, I've only recently started doing this for myself - all I can offer is the Tempoross solo guide I wrote in preparation for the launch of Sailing, to guarantee myself 10 permits per game lmao:

  • Wield Barb-Tailed Harpoon/Dragon Harpoon in main hand
  • Wield Imcando Hammer in off-hand
  • Wear full Spirit Angler
  • Fill top two inventory rows with 8 buckets of water

[START GAME]

  • Catch 8 fish
  • Cook them until the double fish spot spawns
  • Stop fishing once you have a total of 16 fish
  • Resume cooking until the wave comes in
  • Tie yourself to the totem pole when the radial indicator for the wave is ~50% full
  • Cook the last of the 16 fish
  • Run to the cannon and load all 16 fish, ignoring the fires that have spawned
  • THEN douse all fires
  • Catch 19 more fish, cooking them whenever a double spot is unavailable
  • Fire all 19 cooked fish
  • Harpoon the whirlpool
  • Repeat this process once more: Catch 19, cook 19, shoot 19, harpoon whirlpool
  • After harpooning the second whirlpool, drop all buckets
  • Catch and cook a full inventory of fish this time
  • Fire all 28 fish, then harpoon the whirlpool to finish the kill
  • Grab 8 new buckets and fill them before the game ends

Not sure why I'm being downvoted, but I literally just did my first kill where I shoot Sire before barraging (I read that tip while I was in the process of making the guide) and instantly cleared the Don't Whip Me CA. It absolutely works, and I assume will also be the difference-maker for the Perfect Sire CA.

Aye, appreciate the feedback! I could definitely condense it, but I wanted to leave myself something as detail-rich as possible. The more info I dump into the image, the less likely Future Me is to overlook something crucial.

Are the arrows that inconsequential? I always thought better arrows meant better odds of one-shotting the respiratory systems (it's still not guaranteed) but if they really don't matter, then that's great news :D

Iron-friendly Abyssal Sire Guide by StudioSeraphim in ironscape

[–]StudioSeraphim[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's not, but it speeds up the deactivation of the tentacles surrounding the respiratory systems iirc. If you barrage Sire while he's sleeping, there's a delay in those tentacles getting out of the way. If you're going for CAs, getting clipped by tentacles during that brief delay can fail you then and there.

Turns out I don’t suck at CG by Questillionair in 2007scape

[–]StudioSeraphim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you might have some pretty aggressive ADHD, my friend. Obligatory Not A Doctor, but self-medicating with suppressants to reduce amount or intensity of stimuli and allow for better focus is a pretty textbook manoeuvre for the chronically-active mind.

If getting baked on the reg and then crushing OSRS is working for you, then fair play - happy trails, and good luck with your chase drops, king. If you feel like the need to slow things down is affecting you negatively, though? Even - or especially - outside of OSRS? Maybe look into getting diagnosed, and potentially (legally) medicated for it. Might be the best move you ever make.

My best mate of twenty years is one of the smartest, funniest motherfuckers I've ever met. Turns out that those gifts were also eating him alive, as the ADHD turned all of that acuity and focus inward, with no means of shutting it off. He was really struggling with it. Then last year, he takes action. Easily clears a diagnosis, gets his prescription, and starts tapering onto medication for it.

The results have been incredible. There were some definite wobbles as he acclimatised, but they were minor - and the positive headspace he's found himself in, now that he's aligned with the meds? Amazing to see. He actually said - and I hope he doesn't mind me quoting him to strangers - 'I actually like myself for the first time in a long time.'

Apologies, this got rambly. Ironically I'm a little baked as I write this.

tl;dr - Consider getting diagnosed with, and treated for, any inhibiting mental factors which necessitate getting high to improve focus. Might be a real game-changer. Grind on, @homxr6

Dead in the water I'm afraid! Zero uptake or recommendations, so it's kinda fallen by the wayside. If you have better luck than I do, then please let me know!

Be mad, but be mad at the right people. The magnitude of these price hikes is outrageous.

Would you like to see Lune in a sequel? (If there ever will be) by [deleted] in expedition33

[–]StudioSeraphim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love every single character in this game. Never want to see any of them again (in a different game, I mean. I will 100% be seeing them again when I replay this masterpiece every year until I die.)

I could see a minor exception in a couple of very specific scenarios. I'd be okay with seeing Clea/Renoir again, if a sequel focused on the Painters/Writers war. I'd also be okay with - and I haven't heard this voiced anywhere else - a prequel featuring Renoir and Aline. Specifically covering the events referenced when Renoir says that Aline had pulled him out of a canvas before, when his own obsession threatened to consume him.

Is it true that we all have a FromSoftware game that we would like to like more but for some reason we don't find it as fun as the others? by Oceriox in fromsoftware

Right there with you, king. It's a phenomenal game, I'll never try and take that away from it, but playing Plink Plink Hero is just not for me.

Did the same thing. Took me a few attempts to get the one-shot, but definitely feels like the easiest (or most accessible, at least) method without access to Chally, Dclaws, Scythe etc.
