Follow the path to discover the next item. If there's an enemy near it, you can circle around the hill to get off its radar.

Be warned; if you approach it, it will turn into an enemy known as "Rocher." You must defeat Rocher to gain the final lustrous rock for Hexga. Fortunately, this creature won't be too challenging to take down compared to other enemies in this cave. Most attacks work on this enemy, but fire is the only element it is resistant to. So, just avoid using any fiery abilities. With all three lustrous rocks, use the nearby rope and return to Hexga. You'll have to help them insert the Rock Crystals on its back, filling up the empty spaces in its body. When Hexga gets up, you'll see your reward where they previously sat. After claiming your reward, you can talk to Hexga again to learn more about their mysterious past or choose to attack. Just know the fight is absolutely brutal. It might be the smarter move to talk instead, as Hexga shares some fascinating lore about the Paintress that adds clarity to Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's deep and compelling story. You can also continue down the cave to discover one of the Manor's many doors. What does the Auto Shell Picto do in Expedition 33? The new Picto, Auto Shell, grants your character a protective Shell for three turns right at the start of the battle. It's like turning the enemy's shield tactics against them, giving you a solid defensive edge before anyone even moves. This is especially useful when enemies strike first, letting you absorb early damage and stay standing long enough to strike back. Screenshot by Destructoid The Shell also grants an extra 411+ Health, making you nearly unstoppable. It's a strong early-to-mid Picto, especially for characters with low defense.
