Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's big Maelle nerf is even worse than we thought, as it turns out one of her best weapons was never meant to be so powerful in the first place

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's first big update is here, and while it mainly focuses on squashing bugs, it turns out one powerful build is getting an even bigger nerf than previously anticipated.

Yesterday, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 developer Sandfall Interactive revealed that it was going to be toning down the power of Stendhal – an incredibly strong skill learned by Maelle that could be used to decimate bosses and reach ridiculously high damage records. The devs "clearly overdid it" with a last-minute damage boost to the move, as it was "making it a bit too easy" to break the game. However, it's not the only thing to get nerfed in this patch.
