Visages is an area that you will visit during Act 2 in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. See a Visages walkthrough, if you should go straight to the Axon or take the other paths, answers to the riddles, as well as all the weapons and Pictos in the area.
List of Contents
| Act 2: Verso Objective 4 Guide | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Enter the Visages, which is marked on your map and found on the left side, while Sirene is on the right. The path ahead is pretty linear, so make your way through the gorge of stone faces until you reach the first Rest Point, which you should approach and interact with. |
| 2 | ![]() Looking ahead, you will see four paths—the verdant Joy Vale directly left of the Rest Point, the barren Sadness Vale just beside it, and the scorched Anger Vale to the far right that looks like a ravine. The Main Path in the center that is framed by two columns with faces should come last. From here, you can make a choice on which of the other three paths to take first. ▶ Mask Riddle Answers |
| Act 2: Objective 4 - Joy Vale Guide | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Proceed to the Joy Path and continue until you reach the visage. Once you do, let it swallow you. |
| 2 | ![]() Keep following the path while eliminating any Nevrons in the way until you reach the Rest Point. You should come across a clearing with the Joy Mask just beyond. |
| 3 | ![]() It will give you the following riddle: “He who painted this world, Seeking what he could not grasp, Longing to share with those he loves. Behind his smile, what could it be?” Answer Joy and prepare to engage in a fight. |
| 4 | ![]() Defeat the Jovial Moissoneneuse. This enemy casts Berserk on itself, which significantly strengthens its attacks. Do prepare for a lengthy battle as the Joy Mask will heal the Jovial Moissoneneuse regularly. Defeating the Jovial Moissoneneuse will reward you with the Chapelim, a new weapon for Lune. After the fight, you will immediately be transported back to the starting crossroads. ▶ How to Beat the Jovial Moissoneneuse |
| Act 2: Objective 4 - Sadness Vale Guide | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Keep following the path until you reach a large clearing with a giant face whose mouth looks to be an entrance. Approach the visage and let it swallow you. |
| 2 | ![]() After the cutscene, a new path will be made available in front of you, so keep pressing onward while eliminating Nevrons along the way until you reach the next Rest Point. |
| 3 | ![]() You will be at a clearing with several Nevrons. Either defeat them or evade them. Make your way to the Sorrow Mask at the far end of the area and speak to it. |
| 4 | ![]() It will give you the following riddle: “He who lives in-between, Behind his veil, emotions swell For a life forced to paint. What is he but a reflection of...” Answer Sadness and prepare to engage in a fight. |
| 5 | ![]() Defeat the Sorrowful Chapelier. Despite having a relatively low amount of HP, this one will be challenging as it and its companions boast powerful attacks that can incapacitate teammates quickly while bombarding you with Status Effects. Defeating the Sorrowful Chapelier will reward you with the Boucharo, a new weapon for Monoco. After the fight, you will immediately be transported back to the starting crossroads. ▶ How to Beat the Sorrowful Chapelier |
| Act 2: Objective 4 - Anger Vale Guide | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Enter the Anger Path and approach the visage's mouth and let it swallow you. |
| 2 | ![]() You will enter a different area this time. The path here is pretty straightforward so keep pushing on while eliminating or evading Nevrons until you reach the next Rest Point. The Anger Mask should just be downhill. |
| 3 | ![]() It will give you the following riddle: “He who cannot fight fate, Behind his scowl, emotions blaze But in the shadows, his temper fades. What am I but a mask of...” Answer Anger and prepare to engage in a fight. |
| 4 | ![]() Defeat the Seething Boucheclier. This fight depends on your ability to dodge or parry with precision, though it shouldn't be a problem as the Seething Bouchilier has very slow attacks that are easy to predict. Ironically, the Seething Boucheclier is weak to Fire. Defeating the Seething Boucheclier will reward you with the Clierum, a new weapon for Maelle. After the fight, you will immediately be transported back to the starting crossroads. ▶ How to Beat the Seething Boucheclier |
| Act 2: Verso Objective 4 Guide | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Once all three masks are dealt with, it's time to deal with the Axon, so proceed to the Main Path. The environment should look similar to the Anger Path. Keep pressing on until you reach a grapple point. Once you do, grapple to the other side. |
| 2 | ![]() The environment will change to resemble the Sorrow Path. Keep pressing on until you reach the next grapple point. Once you do, grapple to the other side. |
| 3 | ![]() The last area should resemble the Joy Path. Keep going until you reach a Rest Point. Take your time to prepare and save, then proceed to the clearing just beyond and watch the cutscenes. ▶ All Expedition Flags |
| 4 | ![]() You will now face against the Visages. Prepare for a lengthy battle as the Visages boast substantial amounts of HP as well as varying tactics based on the mask that appears in the mirror. ▶ How to Beat the Visages |
| 5 | ![]() After the fight with the Visages, you will face another boss—the Mask Keeper. This boss fight is as straightforward as they come and is much easier than the previous one, provided that you've defeated the three previous masks first. Once defeated, a set of cutscenes will play, and the party will automatically set up camp. ▶ How to Beat the Mask Keeper |

You can technically head straight to the Axon and fight them, although skipping the other areas will lead to a very difficult battle. If you are up to the challenge, head straight for the Axon. If you want an easier fight, however, take the other paths first.

If you head to all of these side paths, you will have the chance to destroy three Masks of Emotions in the Joy Vale, Sadness Vale, and Anger Vale. Doing so will make the fight against the Axon much easier, as the boss will not be able to call upon the powers of these masks during battle.

There are 2 eyes in Joy area. You can hit one but you can't hit the other. It saves the game when you hit the first eye and I though it was a riddle but I couldn't find the solution..
