After visiting Esquie's Nest in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, players will be tasked with visiting the Stone Wave Cliffs, a location that is filled with collectibles, equipment, and beyond. While players are guaranteed to encounter some of these items as they work their way to the end of the map, many of them can be missed. This guide details the positions of all those items, and it will help players make the most of their time in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's Stone Wave Cliffs.
This guide does not highlight every Chroma pickup in Stone Wave Cliffs, as that currency can be found everywhere.
