  10. NOTE: I'll be posting YouTube links to all the fights so you can watch them as I explain them. I'll shorten a lot of my explanations because I'm assuming you're watching the videos, so sorry if the explanation isn't in full text. I'm also assuming you've played the game a few times already, so you should generally know where the chests I tell you to pick up are. I'll lead you in the right direction, but you should have pretty good knowledge of where the chests generally are.

  323. -WINDOW 3 (BUILDING SITE) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOp4f1NlhVI]
  324. -Summon Chicken Little, fire combo the Shadows to death.
  325. -When the wave of 3 heartless and 1 Hot Rod appear, focus entirely on the Hot Rod. When the Hot Rod is whistled in, do a combo ending with Upper Slash and do an air combo with 1 finisher to get him to about half health. Have Chicken Little whistle him in again, do a ground combo ending in Upper Slash and an air combo with 2 finishers to kill him. Take care of remaining shadows.
  326. -2 More Hots Rods will spawn. Take care of the Hot Rods one at a time just like the Hot Rod in the previous wave. If the second Hot Rod gets free and goes Berserk, guard and counterguard to finish him off.

  333. -PETE [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnRdQe1tvr8]
  334. -Section 1 - Slide Dash into Pete whether he throws a bomb or runs at you. Do 3 ground combos. When he retaliates and PUTS HIS FISTS UP, slide dash in, then counterguard for another combo.
  335. -Section 2 - Use Trinity (only Break) to end this section. This window is difficult to deal with, so that's why I use Trinity here.
  336. -Section 3 - Slide Dash to Pete again, after 2 combos he'll retaliate, slide dash and counterguard for 2 more combos
  337. -Section 4 - Same as Section 3, just try and avoid combo-ing Pete into the mini cannon towers.
  338. -Section 5 - Use Air Slash at the height of your jump, should hopefully take 3 Air Slashes to kill.

Now Bulky Vendors will spawn in Halloween Town and Agrabah with 100% certainty.

  726. -Flip the Luxord card, do a full combo with guard break finisher, then blizzara finisher. This will loop Luxord into 1 of 2 things, the minigame ("a challenge, is it?") or summoning cards ("Cards!")
  727. -To loop the minigame, hit him once, then use Reflect, then use Guard Break. Then hit him once with Aerial Spiral to loop him again.
  728. -To loop the card summoning, Quick Run towards where he jumps, jump, Reflect, then 3 air hits. This one is much harder to loop by far.
  729. -Look for the visual cue in the video for DM skip. You start with Trinity Limit, then Limit Form, then Ether, then Ars Arcanum (the Ether will restore the Ars MP usage), 1 hit, Ars, 1 hit, Ars to kill him for the DM skip.

  758. -Engine Cores: Summon stitch, spam Magnega to hit enemies into the cores and destroy them. After 2nd core is destroyed you fly to the reactor core.
  759. -Reactor Core:
  760. -Magnega->Finishing Leap->Horizontal Slash the top of the core. Which should spawn the enemies early. Spam Magnega->Thundara combos, use Ethers when necessary on this 1st wave. I save Ethers for 2nd wave mostly.
  761. -When the 1st wave dies, Magnega->Finishing Leap->Horizontal Slash the top of the core again to spawn enemies again.
  762. -This is where you ALWAYS need MP, so using Ethers here if Stitch doesn't recover your MP is crucial.
  763. -Once 2nd wave dies, dismiss Stitch, and do air combos on core until the core is at 2 HP Bars. Then use Riku's Limit on the core to protect you from the giant hands and do damage. When the core is dead, either summon Stitch or CL and go through door.
  764. -ARMORED XEMNAS 1 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQ9JSfWW2sY]
  765. -Stitch: Do a guard break finish. Reflect the lances. Do another ground combo with guard break and reflera finisher. This will trigger his retalitation. Reflera->full ground combo with 2 finishers.
  766. -Do another ground combo with 2 finishers. Then take a step back, and do 2 individual reflera's against his shield. The 2nd reflera should be followed by a full combo with 2 finishers. If he hasn't retaliated yet, hit him a couple times. Then use reflera->full combo with 2 finishers in 1 combo.
  767. -Now do a full ground combo with 1 finisher. Then do 3 individual reflera's, the 3rd reflera should be followed by a full combo with 1 finisher ONLY. Do a couple of hits if he hastn't retaliated. Reflera the retaliation into a full combo with 2 finishers. 1 more combo should kill him.
  768. -Chicken Little: Do a 2 finisher ground combo, GET HIT BY LANCES, ground combo w/ guard break+reflera finisher. 2 hits, reflera->guard break.
  769. -1 more combo w/ 2 finishers. Then wait for Shield, reflect off it two times. If CL somehow stuns him and he doesn't shield, use Wild Dance RC instead. Do combo w/ 2 finishers. Hit him a couple times->reflera->guard break. One combo with guard finisher.
  770. -Reflera 3 times individually off lances and shield. Combo with 2 finishers. Reflect->Combo dead.
  771. -XEMNAS DRAGON [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXEER3cadPs]
  772. -Section 1 - Spam square and use X to absorb the attacks. When you get Megalaser, use it immediately to kill the tail.
  773. -Section 2 - Same as section 1, except when Megalaser is ready, use it when the engine is passing through the middle of the screen, so you can get the most out of the attack.
  774. -Section 3 - Spam square, use Megalaser when you have it to obliterate this engine.
  775. -Section 4 - fly in circles while he fires missles and use O to try and deflect some. Spam square and O and use Megalaser when you get it to avoid the snowflake lasers.
  776. -Section 5 - literally the same strategy as Section 4.
  777. -ARMORED XEMNAS 2 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRmGH-_RYqU]
  778. -Section 1 - run up to him and use reflera->Full combo with 2 finishers, the last finisher should stun him (if it doesn't, do 2 extra hits after next combo). Use a full ground combo with 2 finishers. Reflera the retalation into full ground combo with 1 finisher. Then stand back and use 2 individual refleras, the 2nd reflera into a combo. He should throw you out at this point.
  779. -Section 2 - When flying around, the buildings will spawn in the same spot every time. The best building spawn is just to the left of you, so you fly in that direction and use the RC to break Xemnas' shield. Aerial Dodge IMMEDIATELY to do a snowflake skip and fly straight to Xemnas. FLY TO THE 4TH "RUNG" ON XEMNAS DRAGONS KNECK then descend to Xemnas.
  780. -Xemnas should cast a shield as you land, so wait until his shield goes down and do a full ground combo with 2 finishers. Do a couple hits to force the retaliation. Reflera into a full combo with guard break finisher, then do 2 refleras on his shield, the second one into a full combo. He should push you away again.
  781. -Section 3 - Float below the lasers, then start flying to your left, should be a building that spawns in that area, RC it. Skip the lasers again and land.
  782. -Land and wait for the shield to dispell. Do a full combo with 2 finishers to trigger the retaliation. Reflera into a full combo, then use 2 reflera's on his shield. If he's close to death, make sure to use an Ether before ending the fight. If you do, it's probably best to reflera his retaliation to end this fight.
  783. -FINAL XEMNAS [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQrx8SxFqSw]
  784. -Spam reflect at start to skip a throwing animation. You'll go through a series of reversals and reflects to do LOTS of damage to Xemnas. Eventually, you'll float to the floor (go to items and set Elixir up) and wait for Xemnas to use an attack on you. Reflect, and use Riku's Limit, end before limit finisher, then combo Xemnas until he's at 4 HP Bars or 3 7/8 HP Bars.
  785. -Hit Xemnas to provoke him attack, Limit his attack (pause buffer if needed), and immediately do Zantetsuken Combo, then Ars. 1 hit, then another ars, then you'll revert.
  786. -If you want to go for Laser skip, do a guard break finisher, Xemnas should disappear. If you want to reflect the lasers, don't do a combo and just Elixir.
  787. -Laser Skip: USE THE ELIXIR AS FAST AS YOU CAN, then reflect to skip the animation and do the reversal/reflect part of the fight again. If you do the reflects correctly he should start his final laser dome, which triggers the end of the fight.
  788. -Lasers: reflect the lasers to do damage to Xemnas as he passes by. It shouldn't take long for him to trigger laser dome.
  789. -Finally, spam reflect to survive the laser dome. A 50 second - 1 minute long cutscene will happen, stunning Xemnas in the air. Thunder him to kill him. Time ends when the thunder hits Xemnas.
