Greetings folks.
So Playing through 1.5 Final Mix on standard or normal mode, whatever the setting in between beginner and Proud was called and have tonight gone from Montsro to Atlantica. I have reached the final battle in the world with Ursula w/ Flotsom and Jetsam which I admit figured would be a long shot since it took me at least three tries to take out the damn shark in the Sunken Ship area and had taken note of the difficulty level before choosing the world but from what I could tell it had at the time been between it and one other with a slightly higher difficulty rating.
So it's no surprise to me that I was thrice clobbered by Ursula and those damn eels. Even in the original PS2 game I ended up having a friend defeat her for me but this time around I understand the important of leveling up and have ignored almost none of the random heartless encounters.
So current Status:
*Sora is at level 30
*Sora is armed with the Three Wishes Keyblade with the Cure spell set to the Square button for easy use.
*All of my elemental spells have been upgraded except Thunder which I read is supposed to occur after the Ursula battle
*I am using Ariel in place of Donald who is nearly level 40 (and has this bitchin' tail slap thing).
*Goofy is actually ahead of me level wise at somewhere around level 34 or so I am guessing. Interestingly Donald was the one I had always kept in the original game when using a world native team member but I discovered now that Goofy is actually the far better fighter. It sadly doesn't take much to knock my Donald out.
Thunder is the only spell I can aim at the cauldron without having to take it slowly to figure out buttons or what I am doing and it drains MP very quickly. Though I am equipped with Ethers, I hardly can find a safe moment to use them or cast my cure spell. So I lasted as long as I did in each battle thanks to Ariel also helping heal me a couple of times.
If Flotsam and Jetsam weren't around I could probably do it but they keep smacking me around when I am trying to focus on dodging Ursula's bitch spin move.
So please tell me fellow players, is my status not appropriate for this? What advise do you have?
