Hollow Bastion Riku Fight #2

[Kenza]

I can't seem to beat Riku. This is the fight that takes place in front of the key hole. Everytime I get close to beating him... I die. Does anyone have any tips? I've been leveling up and i'm currently level 49. This is also what i've been doing in battle

Keyblade: Metal Chocobo
Casting Aerora (I think that's the name)
Stocking up on potions and ethers
Casting Cura
Gliding out of the way

Don't use all of your magic at first because he gets stronger, and stronger, and stronger at the end of the fight. Theres not much I can say but level up and keep trying.

 

[KeyMaker]

Attack him physically. Save all mp for cure magic. Before the battle try leveling up on some other monsters if you can.

 

[Iridium]

Well the strategy you just posted is the sure fire way to take him down.
Also when he's vulnerable you can use Arms Arcanum, he's not as hard as he looks.

my stratagies for every fight is USUALLY the same and way different than what most people do. i equip elixers and megaelixers and once the battle starts mash with special moves like trinity, ragnarok, and ars aracum. i always have mp rage equiped or it will not work. i go up to the enemy and let em hit me lightly so i get magic back. then use cure and then use mre specials. it takes time to be able to learn how to use this statagy but once you can do it everything seems easier.

Get at a higher level. Try using the keyblade Fairy Harp if you want to.

That's an interesting strategy but when you mean that it takes time, it's not suggested for begginers?

Okay, i'll give that a shot

Thanks guys, i'll be sure to level up then... up to what level is suggested?^^;

 

[Iridium]

To be precise I was around 34 to 39 when I challenged him, but it's safe to level up to 50 if you have the time.

okay, use deflect alot to deflect most of his attacks
the counterattack ability is good to use in this battle
the olympia keychain is a good key to use
when u need to cast cura, glide away to make some space
If you knock Riku off balance, use Ars Arcanum
that should cover the entire battle

And once you beat him,the Ragnarok ability os all yours!

That's basically the level that is the level that would defiantley take him out.

Save your MP, and Aeora helped me the most, anytime i got a chance I cast it when it finished, before this battle I had never cast Aeora!!

 

[gelandporn]

Honestly, I don't know why people think he's so hard:

YouTube - Kingdom Hearts 1: Riku/Ansem 2 NO DAMAGE/special attacks

That's pretty much how my own fight with him went. Just block, parry, repeat. Not too strategic. I mean, really.

well i know most people ive told this to love the stategy but some of them couldnt do it at first. i would suggest this stratagy but try useing it a few times before atempting big fights. that way your prepared

 

[Kenza]

Okay i'll give it some practice then

Wow no damage... that's good skill. I don't think I could pull it off though XD;;;

Right so level 50 and Arms Arcanum, got it.
