Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 – All Petank Locations & Rewards Guide

If you’ve been wandering through Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and spotted a weird, fast-moving little creature zipping around — congrats, you found a Petank!
These elusive Nevrons are basically bonus bosses scattered around the world, and they’re loaded with rewards you seriously don’t want to miss.

They don’t just hand you goodies either — you’ll have to actually catch them first, and trust me, these little guys don’t make it easy.

Let’s dive into everything you need to know: where to find them, how to catch them, and most importantly, what sweet loot you’ll grab along the way.


How Petank Hunts Work

Petanks aren’t your usual enemy.
They’re fast, slippery, and if you’re not quick enough, poof — they’ll escape, leaving you staring into the void wondering what went wrong.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Petank Guide
Here’s the basics:

  • You find them mostly in open-world areas or specific dungeons.

  • They run as soon as you get close. Some trigger a mini-battle where they try to flee after a few turns.

  • You catch them by acting quickly — prioritize Speed and Break skills that can delay or stagger them.

Pro Tip:
Save your game before engaging, especially if you’re low on traps or burst skills!

Petank Rewards – What You’ll Get

Successfully catching a Petank doesn’t just make you feel awesome — you also score some seriously important upgrade items.

Here’s the usual haul:

  • 5x Polished Chroma Catalysts – Upgrade your best weapons and gear.

  • 1x Recoat – Super valuable item for refining rare equipment.

  • 5x Colours of Lumina – Enhance your Lumina skills and open up more flashy combat options.

Collecting them all will set you up for endgame boss battles and harder exploration areas like a total champion.


Best Tips for Catching Petanks

  • Save often – Nothing worse than blowing your shot because you were underleveled.

  • Speed matters – Buff your fastest character so you always move first.

  • Use Break skills – Stagger Petanks so they lose their chance to run away.

  • Exploit traps – Some areas have environmental traps you can bait them into.

  • Watch for animation cues – Some Petanks give away when they’re about to flee with a little shimmer or sound.


Why You Should Hunt Them All

Look — missing even one Petank could mean you fall behind in your upgrades later.
That’s not something you want when the big bosses start flexing.
Plus, some Petank items are limited, so it’s your one shot to max out certain gear paths.

Think of it as a collectible sidequest that actually matters to your character’s power level.
