Re: need help on critical mode

Zero Exp meams you get no experience points at all so it'd make the game a lot harder.

Usually people go for sword and ditch staff, though personally I like to keep shield and ditch staff. I prefer the boost in defense over the boost on strength, but ultimately it depends on how you play.

If you go for the shield, you get Once More and Second Chance earlier, which helps with the later-game bosses.

Even in Critical Mode, the mode where you'll be using Reflect over and over, KH2's Magic just doesn't stand up to snuff.

Re: need help on critical mode

Critical mode really isn't that hard. I'm up to Disney Castle and it's been a breeze so far. It's not difficult as it is tedious. You can't go "guns blazing". You have to think strategically.

For example when I'm surrounded by a group of enemies, I isolate the one that's giving me the hardest time. Before I had the ability to send enemies into the air, I would keep my distance and use magic. Now that I've gained that ability, I just go for aerial attacks because enemies can't attack in that state.

Re: need help on critical mode

once you get magnet burst and some negative combo abilities, that can make taking care of large groups of enemies a breeze

Doesn't Zero Exp also grant you Once More & 2nd Chance perks since you can't get them on a lvl 1 playthrough?

Re: need help on critical mode

I always grab the staff (ahem) and ditch the sword. It's not so much that I dislike having good attack, I'm just a bit more of a conservative player.
I will say this for Critical, though: level up ASAP. I quickly tired of dying in 2 hits -_-

Re: need help on critical mode

Wisdom Forme can make boss fights alot easier on critical. Not all but some. It allows you to quickly excape the enemy and quickly deal damage from afar as well as spam thundaga. I never used it at all before but Ive found some use for it. Also level up your drives as much as possible before moving on; this gives you some great abilities and if you do need to use a drive the gauge will last longer.

You get the secret ending for-sure on Critical, and pretty much the same for Proud. Not sure what you want to know about the Gummi Ship, though.

Only time I've ever chosen the shield was for Critical and man am I glad I did. Having Once More and Second Chance really makes a world of difference especially for boss fights later down the line. Critical was surprisingly easy for me with the exception of a few parts or at least in my experience.
