Unlike the Darkside, the head is the Twilight Thorn's only weak point, so aim for that. It begins by tossing Roxas into the air to hurt him—use the [[Reaction Command]]s at the right time—"Key Counter" and "Lunarsault" in particular. Then follow up with "Break Raid"; when on the ground, do a combo. It will get up and begin to use many Tendrils of Darkness.
Unlike the Darkside, the head is the Twilight Thorn's only weak point, so aim for that. It begins the fight with an attack pattern consisting of '''Combo Punch''', '''Toss Up''', and '''Light Ball'''—use the [[Reaction Command]]s at the right time—'''Key Counter''' and '''Lunarsault''' followed up with '''Break Raid'''; when on the ground, perform a combo. At 50% HP, it repeats this attack pattern. Afterwards, it will get up and begin to use its thorn attacks.


Many of Twilight Thorn's attacks can be guarded.
When it fires thorns, use the Reaction Command, '''Reversal''' to get close to attack. But if it continuously fires thorns, even if Roxas is close to its head, prioritize safety. Keep on using Reversal until it is safe to attack. The Twilight Thorn has a tendency to shift its shape, and sometimes it may be upside down. Again, it will fire thorns. Keep on using Reversal, then attack his head twice and begin avoiding again.

Sometimes, [[Creeper]]s will appear. If Roxas is low on health, it is advised to target them as they have little health and drop large HP orbs.

Line 60: Line 58:


As the fight with Twilight Thorn takes place at the beginning of the game and Roxas's stats are low, it is advisable to train him up to at least Level 5 and stock up more than three Potions. Use the Auto-Reload function and heal when necessary, because poor evasion of the thorns can take a toll on Roxas's health.
