Kingdom Hearts II

Don't worry, he's optional just like in the first game. From what I'm reading on another forum, you can find him in Hollow Bastion at the location where you have the Axel/Saix/Mickey cutscene after the 1k Heartless fight. But you get a really strong keyblade if you manage to beat him.

Whew, that's a relief. I was afraid to go any further. lol

First off, how did Malificent come back? The crow brought her cloak or whatever back to the tower and because the fairy's remembered her, she came back? Isn't that a, well...stupid way to bring a villian back? Couldn't they have come up with something better?

Yeah that's how I interpreted it: that the memory of her existance gave her the strength to return.

And, when Sora finishes a world, does he lock the world or open a gateway so he can venture to the next world?

He's opening special gateways since the worlds were no longer connected after the end of the first KH.


My brother practically has this game beat. All that's really left is the final battle but he wants to complete Jiminy's Journal first before moving on. Since I've already spoiled a lot for myself, I watched him play around in the last world for a bit provided he not show me anything I didn't already know. Like he demonstrated how Final Form worked among...other things. Awwww man....I can't wait until I'm at that point. Even I'm just doing tedious leveling. >_<

Ah, I see. Thanks Cyanna!

[Erin]

Ok, anyone with the Final Form, how hard is it supposed to be to obtain? I know it's random and everything, but I feel like I've spent ages trying to get it to show up, and no luck. I'm almost levelled up enough to go fight Sephiroth, but I'd like to have the Glide ability beforehand. It's getting frustrating.

Also, general tip for anyone who might not know, if you morph into a Form and then use a Save point to enter the World Map (while still morphed, don't revert!), when you land in a world your Drive Gauge will be full again.

Quick question (I know, I'm full of them), how exactly did Ursula come back? I mean, we killed her in the first game! Or did someone suddenly "remember" her and she came back? And why would Ariel in the first place trust her? Didn't she do that last game and end up getting screwed?

I'm just confused; I mean, the ways some villians have been brought back ticks me off. Seriously, be CREATIVE.

Oh! Thanks for the tip!

See, this is another reason why I think they should have just left Atlantica out completely. But aside from that, I try not to think too much about stuff that doesn't make sense. If I don't suspend my disbelief, I really don't enjoy the story as much.

Oh! Thanks for the tip!

You're welcome.

I've never considered Ariel to be one of the brightest characters in Disney film but that's for another topic...

The only arguement I can give is that at least the story follows the same lines as the film this time....but man were 3 of those songs painful to listen to. >_<

Timeless River owns all....too bad you can't stay in there longer.

And call me weird...I kinda want to see "Tron" now. I'll have to rent it some time. I had heard of it...never saw it...but now curiosity is getting to me.

I just made it to the save point right before the final boss battle. But since I want to see the secret ending I have to go do the Little Mermaid world now

*grumble grumble*

And I now have all the treasure chests in the game... except for one!!!! It's in Twilight Town, if you look in Jiminy's Journal it's the 6th one from the left on the very top row. If anyone has that one could you please post what it is?

[Cyanna]

I splurged and got the limited edition guide with an extra "Jiminy's Journal" book. On the TT treasure page, the sixth item on the list is in the Tram Common area (the area where the hole in the wall leading to the woods can be found).

[Erin]

We bought the limited edition guide too. I want to paste the stickers from Jiminy's journal all over the place instead of using them in the book like you're supposed to. lol

Ok... I'm level 84... I have Final Form... I should be ready to go fight Sephiroth. But I'm scared. lol

Thanks Cy! I have also found out that the item is a Hi-Potion. Does your guide say specifically where the item is? NE corner? SW... etc?

As for Sephiroth, I was Lv 99 when I fought him and he was still a pain in the caboose x.x

No....it doesn't go into that much detail.

Aw thanks anyways! I finally found the item today lol. No clue how I missed it in the first place. I finally did Atlantica today, maxed out my Valor, and now I need to complete my sythesis item list so I can finally get the 7th Orihalcum+ so I can make Ultima Weapon.

I got my Final form! With some help from Erin, I got it!

Also, the second battle against the member of the Organization XIII (Where it's timed), how do you beat him? I mean, I ran out of time and I don't know what to do!

[Erin]

Well, I beat it... I got all my forms maxed, levelled up to 99, got my nerve up to go fight Sephiroth... and then said "Meh, forget it, I just want to finish the game." lol The nice thing about spending all that time maxing my level was that the final battle was a breeze. I'm sure playing on Beginner had something to do with that too. xD

Anyway, I then cheated and looked up the secret ending on YouTube. I might get up the motivation to play on Proud so I can see it for myself. The quality of YouTube videos always sucks.

That battle was a pain in the rear, mostly because Luxord has this seriously irritating attack that turns Sora into a die or a card. Grr. x.x

Basically, just attack like mad and use the triangle Reaction Commands when they pop up. If he turns you into a die, chase after him as best you can and attack. At some point he'll turn himself into a card and mix up with a bunch of others. Try to keep an eye on him and use the Flip reaction command to pick him out of the group. There's also the Begin Game reaction command, which starts a kind of mini-game where X's and O's cycle through your Command Bars. Try to select the O's when they rotate past, to keep from being turned back into a die. Apparently, if you win this game, it'll also decrease Luxord's time bar. I wouldn't know, since I lost. If you find you're as horrible at managing the reaction commands as I was, just attack whenever you get an opening. Keep the pressure on him and hopefully you'll get lucky. Mind your health too, you can still die no matter how much time you have left.

What do you have to do in order to get the secret ending? I'm on 'Normal' mode.

Ah! I see, thanks a lot Erin.

I just really hate how this isn't based on strength alone. But it's a nice change.
