Among the many Gestrals players will meet inClair Obscur: Expedition 33, three are arguably the most important figures: Noco, Golgra, and Monoco. Noco is the first Gestral the expeditioners meet after reuniting with Maelle, while Golgra can be found shortly after, at the Gestral Village. Golgra is the Chief of the Gestrals, and she’s known to be “absurdly strong.” To test her strength, players can provoke Golgra to a duel at the Chief’s House. However, if players decide to do this when they first arrive at theGestral Village inExpedition 33, Golgra will likely beat them up real bad.
This may cause players to wonderhow to beat Golgra and the rewards for beating her inExpedition 33. After all, a boss this strong must have a reward that matches their power.

How To Beat Golgra In Expedition 33
Fighting Golgra by provoking her at the Gestral Village is best done later in the game, since she has a massive pool ofover three million HP. Her hits will also one-shot your character in the early game, although they’re not hard to dodge once you understand the pattern. There’s also an obvious sound cue for her hits.
However, despite her hits not being the hardest to avoid, her HP will force players to fight for a long time if they initiate the duel in the early game. Additionally, Golgra also has some Gradient hits that can only be avoided after learning about them in the mid-game.
Golgra’s attacks vary from a 3-hit to a 6-hit move. She has one attack that requires a jump dodge + Gradient counter, and one ability that only needs a Gradient counter. When her HP is below 50%, Golgra gets angry and gains the Powerful and Rush buffs. Players can remove these buffs by applying the Powerless or Slow debuffs, although it’s not required.
Luminas
Other than the obviousPainted PowerLuminas, players should also use the following abilities, as they’re all perfect for a solo fight:
Additionally, the following Luminas are overpowered, although not easy to get.
