| '''[[Roxas]]''' is a boss in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'' at [[The World That Never Was]]. | | '''[[Roxas]]''' is a boss in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'' at [[The World That Never Was]]. A [[Data-Roxas|digital copy]] is the final boss in ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'' at [[Castle Oblivion]]. Roxas also appears as a [[Organization XIII Data Rematch|Data Rematch]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'' and the 2.5 HD Remix. |
|
| |
|
| ==Strategy== | | ==Strategy== |
| ===''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix''=== | | ===Attacks=== |
| Roxas possesses higher than average resistance to non-physical elements, and as such, Sora should not rely on offensive magic other than Reflect in this fight for defensive purposes. Even if Reflect deals damage to Roxas, it will only deal roughly 1/10th worth of damage to one of Roxas's HP bar. Roxas has two movement speeds: a slow guarded trot with his Keyblades up, and gliding across the battlefield in a trail of light at extremely high speeds, equitable to Larxene's dash. | | *'''Whirlwind Break''': After yelling an audible "''Hup!''" and twirling his Keyblades to his side, Roxas attacks in a wide cross-circle that releases rays of light and darkness to increase its range. Sora can either move closer and cast Reflect or use Guard to counter the technique, or use Dodge Roll or a jump to dodge it. |
| | | *'''Combo Charge''': Roxas alternates between Keyblades as he attacks Sora in a basic ground combo and finishing by leaping backwards before charging forward at high speeds, sending Sora flying if hit. Sora can cast Reflect or use Guard to counter the technique's finisher, leaving Roxas open to attack. |
| The battle will always begin with Sora directly in his attack range. Just as the battle commences, Roxas will immediately use a variation of Whirlwind Swing that covers a large portion of the field, buffering the beginning animation while the cinematic camera is still craning behind [[Sora]], slightly before the player gains control. This attack can be fairly easily circumvented by guarding, dodging, [[Reflect]], or even jumping at the right time. If improperly evaded and assuming the attack is not lethal, the late hitboxes cause very short hitstun, but will push Sora very far back, making it nearly impossible to counterattack.
| | *'''Aerial Dive''': Used either in retaliation or to get closer to Sora. Roxas (jumps in the air and) performs a barrel roll while his Keyblades wheel around him vertically, possibly interrupting Sora mid-combo and bringing Roxas to the ground. Sora can prevent the technique from triggering by allowing Roxas to land, or quickly casting Reflect once it is used. |
| | | *'''Duel Assault''': A variation of the [[Samurai]]'s Duel Stance. Roxas charges at Sora while saying "''Gotcha!''", as they both prepare to strike the other. If Roxas wins the duel, he slashes right through Sora at an incredible speed, dealing immense damage after a short delay. If Sora wins the duel, however, he will knock Roxas into the air and temporarily steal his Keyblades, adding increased power to all of his attacks. |
| After the initial attack, he will run behind Sora and use either Aerial Spin Swing, Whirlwind Swing, or Continuous Swing. Watch for the Continuous Swing attack, as guarding the final dash attack causes Roxas to stagger back and stake his Keyblades in the ground in order to regain his balance, during which Sora has multiple seconds to start attacking. When his retaliation point is met, Roxas may counterattack with Continuous Swing or Keyblade Throw on the ground, or Aerial Spin Swing in the air.
| | **'''Spot Beam''': Summons beams of light topped with the Nobody emblem, casting eight of them ahead of him, then dashing forward and sending the last where he just stood. |
| | | **'''Trap Beam''': Summons six beams of light to close in on Sora. |
| Roxas may use Duel Attack every now and again, and when caught by it, a cinematic duel between Sora and Roxas begins, which is very similar to the [[Samurai]]'s Duel Stance [[Reaction Command]]. Once the duel has begun, the command menu will go blank, after which "The End" will appear in a random slot. This must be selected within the extremely stringent time limit of 0.8 seconds. If successful, Sora strikes first, sending Roxas into the air and stealing his Keyblades. If failed, Roxas cleaves downward through Sora, who takes significant damage. Roxas initiates this sequence by dashing toward Sora, and it will automatically occur if he touches him. Regardless, the duel can be avoided by repeatedly Reflecting, or by jumping and staying afloat for a few seconds with Air Dodge or Glide, after which Roxas will switch tactics. Unlike Duel Stance, Duel Attack does not technically count as a Reaction Command because Sora cannot chose whether to opt into it with {{button|t}} and must actively avoid it, making it just as akin to Duel Stance as Lexaeus's cinematic grab attacks.
| | **'''Beam Wall''': Enhanced version of Spot Beam; Roxas uses three beams on each side during his forward dash. |
| [[File:Versus Roxas KHIIFM.png|thumb|right|Roxas battling against Sora within the [[Station of Serenity]].]]
| | **'''Return''': Roxas surrounds Sora with beams of light as he reacquires his stolen Keyblades (which cannot be stopped), before quickly turning around and slashing Sora where he stands. Sora can avoid the attack portion by using the "[[Reversal]]" Reaction Command. |
| | | *'''Keyblade Raid''': Roxas flies about and around Sora, sends his Keyblades spinning toward him twice. |
| When Duel Attack is completed successfully, Sora will wield Roxas's stolen Keyblades in conjunction to his own. Roxas's Keyblades will react depending on Sora's actions, not just his attacks, such as spiraling around him during ground combos or piercing through Roxas from multiple directions during combo finishers. However, this may also cause Roxas to retaliate sooner as more specific types of hits are landed on him, so be wary. Eventually, he'll perform his Instant Recapture Attack and inevitability reacquire his stolen Keyblades, so while Sora has Roxas's Keyblades in his possession take advantage of the situation in a careful and quick manner, dealing as much damage on him as possible while avoiding retaliation. When Roxas attempts to retake his Keyblades, Sora can quickly use Reversal to escape his counterattack, but failure will result in Roxas knocking Sora away for heavy damage. Either way, both results will end up with Roxas regaining his Keyblades.
| | *'''Dark Combo''': Roxas utilizes Keyblade Raid, then performs a flurry of slashes before sending out rays of dark energy around himself, drawing Sora in if near. |
| | | *'''Cyclone Break''': Roxas summons six light beams around him as he charges Whirlwind Break, and sends the beams in all directions as he releases the attack. The technique can be dodged, or countered with Reflect. |
| After a quarter of his health is gone, Roxas gets even more aggressive. Duel Attack is used less frequently, and Roxas also adds several light-based elements and extra beams during several of his actions, causing him to have a more erratic attack range. Be on guard and do not try to block on misjudgment if possible (due to the light beams being unblockable), as Roxas's physical moves can still be blocked and countered normally.
| | *'''Combo Overcharge''': Similar to Combo Charge, except with each swing of a Keyblade, a beam of light is sent at Sora, with his finisher releasing a wave of energy and leaving up to six light beams going both directions in his wake, meaning Sora can no longer jump to avoid the attack. |
| | | *'''Aerial Eclipse''': Roxas performs Aerial Dive, and now summons three beams of light on each side to increase the attack's range. |
| However, regarding moves that come with the beams, it's possible to have Roxas turn around if Sora ends up behind him, altering the locations of the beams and allowing for easier room to block his physical attacks. Blocking any of his physical moves will at least always allow Sora to bypass his beams with Guard's invincibility from successful blocking.
| | *'''Twilight Combo''': Similar to Dark Combo, except Roxas now uses Keyblade Raid five times and summons two light beams with each attack. |
| | *'''[[Magic Hour]]''': Roxas's Limit Break. Roxas dashes to the center of the battlefield and summons light beams, which act as a sort of shield, as he slowly rises into the air, glowing with energy, then releases light to summon a field similar to the one in which Sora opens the Gates. He'll shout "''Come on!''" as he summons a pair of Light Orbs to his side, before twirling both of his Keyblades to send out homing projectiles at Sora from said orbs. This technique can be dodged by simply running along the edges of the field. |
|
| |
|
| After reaching 75% HP, 40% HP, and then randomly thereafter, Roxas will use his Keyblade Release attack. It is unblockable with the standard Guard, and must be either Reflected or dodged in some way, most reliably by moving along the edge of the arena in a circle. For the duration of the attack, an array of short lasers circle underneath Roxas like a protective cage, and he is also completely intangible. Also after being reduced to 75% HP, Roxas will begin using Spot Beam during his other attacks.
| | ===''Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix''=== |
| | ====Dark City==== |
| | The battle will always begin with Sora directly in his attack range. Just as the battle commences, Roxas will immediately use a variation of Whirlwind Break that covers a large portion of the field. He will then run behind Sora and use either Aerial Dive, Whirlwind Break, or Combo Charge. Roxas will use Aerial Dive if Sora attacks him enough or hits him with Explosion. Roxas may use Duel Assault every now and again, and should Sora win, will start using Spot Beams and Trap Beams relentlessly until he gets the chance to close in and use Return. Depending on the number of hits in the combo and if Roxas was first hit with Reflect, he will counter Sora's first combo finisher instead. |
|
| |
|
| Once he is down to 40% of his HP, Roxas enters his desperation state will use his Keyblade Release attack frequently, and light beams will even be launched simply from him dashing around.
| | After a quarter of his health is gone, Roxas gets even more aggressive. Duel Assault is used less frequently, and he will also begin to use Keyblade Raid in placement of Aerial Dive, along with Dark Combo. Roxas replaces Whirlwind Break, Aerial Dive, and Combo Charge with Cyclone Break, Aerial Eclipse, and Combo Overcharge respectively. |
|
| |
|
| If Roxas is knocked into the air during his retaliation point, he will retaliate with an Aerial Spin Swing. However, on ground he'll retaliate with random moves if Sora lets up on his assault somehow, especially during the later phases after using his desperation move, Keyblade Release.
| | Once he is down to 40% of his HP, Roxas will use "[[Magic Hour]]" frequently, as well as Twilight Combo to replace Dark Combo. Light beams will be launched simply from dashing around. |
|
| |
|
| ====Data Rematch==== | | ====Data Rematch==== |
| [[File:Versus Roxas's Replica Data KHIIFM.png|thumb|right|Roxas's Replica Data appears before Sora in the [[Garden of Assemblage]].]]
| | In the data rematch, use '''Dodge Roll''', '''Reflect''', '''Guard''' and melee attacks—Roxas will use his light shields more often. The projectiles in Magic Hour now fly at faster speeds, requiring Sora to use Glide. His health has also greatly increased, making the fight more dangerous. The best strategy is to activate (and win) his Duel Assault whenever possible to steal his Keyblades hit Roxas continuously. As long as Sora heals when necessary, the battle. |
| In the data rematch, Sora should use exactly the same strategy he used when taking down his Nobody in the World that Never Was, but there are some differences, apart from Roxas's higher HP. | |
| | |
| Roxas retaliates sooner from Sora's combos, and can now retaliate after just one finisher, though it may be hard to tell if Sora has Finishing Pluses and uses them on his Nobody. The projectiles in Keyblade Release now fly at faster speeds, requiring Sora to use '''Glide''' ('''Quick Run''' and '''Dodge Roll''' are not as advised due to the recovery on such movement options) to evade them.
| |
| | |
| Furthermore, said retaliations can now involve Roxas's Keyblade Throw under certain circumstances, which tends to be near-instant and can allow Roxas to extend into a full combo if he even merely clips Sora with this attack. This can easily lead to a huge chunk of damage if not foreseen with a well-timed invincibility option.
| |
| | |
| The best strategy is to activate (and win) his Duel Attack whenever possible to steal the Oathkeeper and Oblivion and bombard Roxas continuously, preventing him from using his best retaliation attacks as often as possible. As long as Sora heals when necessary, the battle can be cleared with few problems. | |
| | |
| Another method is to use Limit Form and use '''Sonic Rave''' constantly; Sora will heal back the bits of damage he is dealt in between the limits, and do decent damage. '''Strike Raid''' is not advised because it puts Sora in a stationary position and has inconsistent invincibility frames; '''Infinity''' and '''Last Arcanum''', however, work wonders provided if Sora can connect onto Roxas properly, with the latter being exceptionally solid if Sora drops the extra Reaction Commands to prevent Roxas from reaching his retaliation point sooner than usual.
