In the opening hours of Expedition 33, Luck and Might are the best attributes for Maelle as they work well with what Maelle wants to do in an encounter. Since you cannot get her best weapon, Medalum, until Act 2, prioritizing these stats will allow her to remain strong until you get your hands on it.

One of fencer Maelle's most powerful abilities in turn-based RPG Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is about to be nerfed, so fill your boots while you can.

ORIGINAL STORY 07/05/25: The developer of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 will soon nerf the RPG's best move, making it more difficult to break combat. "We hadn't planned to make any balance changes this early - just bug fixes, unless something clearly stood out," the studio wrote in a social media post. "Well, Stendhal did."
