No. That's just how partners work, the game has fully customizable teams, but then you get no summons.

[ryannumber1gamer]

Ok then. Is in Donald or Goofy in it?

They are in it, but they don't follow Sora and Riku. The journey this game is soley so they can become proper Keyblade Masters, so Donald and Goofy join up with Mickey and Yen Sid to prepare for what probably will be Kingdom Hearts 3.

Oh ok cool

I wasn't sure what you were talking about for a minute. So you're at the part where you've beaten the first group of worlds and got sent back to Traverse Town to fight the Spellican? I'm sort of surprised. I didn't have any problem with that.

Really, the only problems the game gave me were some of the Secret portals (where you re-fight harder versions of the bosses) and the Julius fight.

Speaking of Julius, if you're planning on earning the trophies for all treasure chests found or all special and secret link portals cleared (and they're some of the easier trophies to get for the secret ending), make absolutely certain that you've cleared out the Fountain Plaza in Traverse Town as both Sora and Riku before you beat the game, because each character won't be able to get back in there until you've fought the game's ultra-hard secret boss as them.

Seriously, the guy is so bad, you get the Ultima Weapon for beating him.

Maybe you are leveled a lot better? For me its impossible to dodge the attacks(more specifically, the 2nd boss), and to throw your own into the fight without training for 2 hours prior and getting as many defence boosts as possible. I beat it though and something new to complain about(you'll see soon)

Noted, will do that now actually, but first another rant.

I've stated it feels like some worlds were designed for Sora and not Riku and vice versa, but the 3 muskateers level for Riku is an all time low.

I beat the entirety of the level... in 10 minutes. An entire KH world beaten... in 10 minutes. They didn't even try with Riku. I'm assuming Sora's actually had thought put into it?

You are joking right? Please tell me this is some kind of joke? 10 minutes?! (faceplam)

I'm not joking, that was around the time it took me to beat it. Realistically, it was probably more about 15 minutes factoring cutscenes, but that's still pathetic.

[ryannumber1gamer]

What's next? Sora goes to Disney castle fights one heartless and seals the keyhole?

I don't know. I have no idea what level I was at at the time. And I'm not sure which boss it is you're talking about.

-watch cutscene-

Oh, that's right, I forgot that you had to re-fight the first few bosses at that part. I really don't know what to tell you about how I did it. I didn't have to do any level grinding, and I really just shot through the story mode and did all the sidequest stuff later. I did have as many HP Boost, Attack Haste, Magic Haste, and Defense Boost abilities as I could equipped at the time, from Kab Kannon and Frootz Cat. Maybe Defender, if I had it at the time.

It might be worth noting that I gave Sora a deck oriented around magic, especially Thundara/Thundaga, where I gave Riku an attack-orented deck, and I equipped their Keyblades accordingly.

I beat the entirety of the level... in 10 minutes. An entire KH world beaten... in 10 minutes. They didn't even try with Riku. I'm assuming Sora's actually had thought put into it?

This...sounds to me like you spent too much time grinding. I don't remember how long Country of the Musketeers took me, but it was certainly longer than that.


In other news, I'm back to working on the Re:coded secret ending, and it's proving to be a huge pain still. I managed to finish the hidden system sector in Hollow Bastion, but I can't manage to get through it with enough SP to collect the Ultima Weapon. The one thing that's really tripping me up (which is weird, since I did it no problem last time, just before bugged Data-Roxas wiped the floor with me) is beating an Eliminator without dying. No matter what I do, it kills me before I have any kind of a chance to kill it. I think I need to use the HP cheat somehow, use a Megalixir before going in the room, get behind it, and hit it with Mega Flare.

I think I'm going to take a break from this and go hit up the Coliseum for levels 16-30.

Riku is currently level 24 and the game says the world is level 30, I'm technically underleveled and beat it in 10 minutes. Note, just Riku's side, I have yet to see how long Sora's is.
Also, the fountain district is just the third one right? That's the one I need to get everything in before beating the game?

[GuruGuru214]

No, the Fountain Plaza. It's the area just before the Fourth District, after the Back Streets for Riku and the Post Office for Sora.

Keep in mind that some of the chests around there require you to use Reality Shift to get them.

Ah, thanks. Will clear that quickly and see if Sora's 3 muskateer's level is any longer.

[GuruGuru214]

You may want to keep this in mind. The special portals are link portals where special colored enemies with special drops appear, and they grant a trophy and one of the best Keyblades in the game when you finish all of them. Each character has six in each world (three in The World that Never Was), and which of the six is currently available is random and changes when you drop. Sora and Riku each have one in the Fountain Plaza. For Sora, the one in the Fountain Plaza might appear when the forecast enemy is "Zippy zapmeister" (Thunderaffe), but there's three portals in that world for that enemy, so you'll have to keep trying until that one comes up. For Riku, the portal in the Fountain District will definitely appear when the forecast enemy is "Doggish-cat thing" (Meow Wow).

Would I need to beat those for the "beat all link portals" trophy, or just for the special one?

[GuruGuru214]

The trophy is for beating all special and secret link portals, so you'll have to beat the six special portals in each world, plus the one secret one in each world. So everything in that FAQ link.

And then the regular ones have there own trophy then?

[GuruGuru214]

No. The only other trophy there is for portals is for placing 30 of your own.

Also, for clearing all of the Secret Portals, you get the Unbound Keyblade, which has the highest strength, critical hit rate, and reality shift rate in the game. As far as magic, it's inferior to End of Pain (which you get for clearing all of the Special Portals) and the Ultima Weapon. When I had to fight the final bosses again, I had Riku equipped with Unbound, and I equipped Sora with the Ultima Weapon.

Finally unlocked the secret ending in Re:coded. It added about 30 hours onto my play clock.
