Ok so this is how you beat this boss. Step 1. Spam dodge cause you'll get shit on if you don't. Step 2. After 5 hours of button mashing you'll see an opening and use a surge. Step 3. Realize your left open and get dropped down to 1 hp. Step 4. Realize there's now 3 clones all attacking at the same time. Step 5. Either die or some how heal to repeat until boss is dead.

[@MekkahDee]

Pretty much

[@forger343]

MrKyle8110 He's more open then he looks. Thunder Surge doesn't trigger the slowdown, so you can almost spam him to halfway.

So how many ablilities do you want to be an instant kill? Nomura: Yes

[@432Restoration]

When you think about it, BBS was a huuge risk. Nomura introduced a bunch of completely new characters, a new fighting system, and rewrote the origin of the main villains perfectly. I mean it's such a triumph.

[@joshtheryuk]

The story is pretty cool but i think the combat system is ass compared to the main trilogy (KH1 to KH3)

[@432Restoration]

@@joshtheryuk disagree. I much prefer the command system. The characters become much more mobile. They move like the bosses.

[@joshtheryuk]

@@432Restoration It's not the command system the real problem. The problem is that the bosses have no revenge value, the commands have zero combo potential and the bosses have random hitstun and break out of combos for no reason. BBS combat is garbage because of this not because of the command system. Re:Coded uses the command system as well however it's much better because the enemy design is not terrible and the commands actually have some combos to them.

[@reddodeado301]

​@@432Restoration Nah man, the bosses cheat in this damn game All your attacks have a ton of end lag on them and the game punishes you for trying to experiment with the commands you likely spent a ton of time grinding for because the bosses in this game fuck you over for trying to play the video game BBS and DDD suck ass unless you play on beginner because the devs CLEARLY didn't play test these games as much as they should have

[@downward7296]

Ah yes, it was such an amazing narrative decision to make the main antagonists goal "I want to summon Kingdom Hearts because I am curious" . Only to change it at the last possible second with no foreshadowing in the post fight cutscene against this antagonist 4 games later.

[@TheKirby8u]

Fun fact, disabling equipped abilities increases the lag time in-between when the mysterious figure attacks so you can actually hit the guy. This was actually present in the original and remixed version, yet the game makes no mention of it so basically nobody knows about it and it makes the boss fight next to impossible; which well, it still kinda is without un-needed abilities but it makes it a bit easier I suppose. Not sure if that works with any of the other bosses, but it would make sense with how bullshit they all are.

[@Laenthor]

The "usefull but never mentionned anywhere" mechanics seems to be a recuring theme in the series...

[@brando_duurie]

I've done it with terra and the maximum number of commands possible when I was 13-14. It was hard as fucking shit. Later, I discovered in online guides that lower is the number of commands, easier will be the fight. And I cried

[@icouldntthinkofagooduserna6658]

I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this, but "Final Antasma Battle" from Mario and Luigi: Dream Team is like...the little brother of this theme. It has the same kind of frantic bass line and violin(...and the same composer). ...Enough about that, HOLY SHIT this theme fits this fight so well.

[@Entgkar7]

Mysterious Figure is the Sonic 06 of Kingdom Hearts bosses: fantastic music, loads of cool looking attacks, and interesting gimmicks But he kills you in two hits, moves faster than Sonic the Hedgehog on the crack emeralds, and forces the player to use broken strategies to have a chance at beating him, truly a tragedy

[@jonnysac77]

Lori no there too poorly written and filled with plot holes for anyone in there right mind to want to piece together, I played KH2 as a kid and it's not like I understood everything in the game but it's designed to appeal to both JRPG fans and kids with its various difficulty modes, saying "KH is too hardcore for kids" or "KH is strictly for kids and no one else" is stupid and not what the developers intended

[@ROXAS-fq7lq]

I always found the BloodSouls games not too challenging despite what everyone says. Now I know the reason. This guy and Lingering Will trained everyone for what From Soft has to offer.

[@zanechandler4709]

Not gonna lie, those fights felt very souls-esque. Some of my top all time favorite themes too. Lingering Will was incredible

[@HerotonAlmighty2011]

This song is great but it's missing the low HP SFX

[@bandicootsmwcentral2950]

Casually jumps over mega flare

[@Puvwilmo00]

The boss fight with the Lingering Will gives you sound cues to tell you which attack he's using and when to dodge or block said attack, it's mostly a matter of how quick your reflexes are. A very difficult but well designed boss. I bring this up to compare a well-designed boss fight, that being the Lingering Will, to a poorly designed one, the Mysterious Figure. The only pheasable way to defeat him is to incessantly mash the square button until your thumb falls off to use Ven and Aqua's broken dodge rolls and spam surge attacks (this fight is damn near impossible with Terra) and it's such a draining, mind-numbing boss fight as a result. There should be a sense of satisfaction upon defeating a boss that gave you such a hard time but with the Mysterious Figure, that just wasn't there (for me at least). It was merely the thought of "oh thank god, it's finally over. I never thought that was going to end". At least the music is great tho.
