Spring Meadows is the first major area you'll explore in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. As you make your way through the area, you will get to recruit the second member of your party, Lune. Eventually, the duo will get to a Rest Point called Abandoned Expeditioners Camp, where a Nevron named Jar can be found.

If you speak to Jar before proceeding on with your quest, he will mention that he is in need of a light source so that he can "shine." The game doesn't really tell you what the Nevron needs, so this guide will cover how to help Jar find his light (and the rewards for doing so) in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 gives fans more details on one of its main characters, Gustave, and why he has chosen to join the expedition.

How to Find Light for Jar in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Resin is the Answer

In order to obtain the light that Jar seeks, you will need to find a key item in the world called Resin and then bring it back to the Nevron. Luckily, Resin is not too far away from the Nevron and the campsite, and you can find it here in Spring Meadows.

Look for the Purple Item

Go forward on the path after passing the Abandoned Expeditioner rest point, and you will eventually get to a section where it seems like there are two split paths (but they actually just lead to the same place).

You can head to the left, cross the bridge, go down the slope, and then, to the right, you should see a purple glowing item near some barrels and crates. This is the Resin that the Nevron seeks.

Now, take the Resin back to Jar. Once the conversation ends, you'll need to aim your projectile at the scepter in Jar's hand and shoot it to activate its light.

Keep speaking to Jar, and you will be rewarded with a Healing Tint Shard, allowing you to use an extra healing item during combat.

Should You Fight Jar in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?

It Feels Bad...

Speak to Jar again, and you can fight him if you choose. Upon defeat, the monster will drop three Colour of Lumina and a Chroma Catalyst.

It's worth noting that the Nevron will disappear if you decide to battle. We're not currently sure if this affects anything later on. There do seem to be other Nevron that may require key items from Gustave to reap some important rewards.
