| '''Wisdom Form''' is a [[Drive Form]] specializing in magical attacks which appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It uses [[Donald Duck]] and consumes three of [[Sora]]'s Drive Bars. It represents Sora's [[magic]]<ref>'''Yen Sid's mirror''': "An image of you utilizing your magic to its fullest flows into your mind."</ref> and is obtained along with the [[Monochrome]] [[Keyblade]] when Sora clears [[Timeless River]]. Its emblem is a blue flame.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Design==
| | Sora's Wisdom Form, unlike his [[Valor Form]], focuses completely on magic. This [[Drive Form]] is learned after Sora completes his adventure in the [[Timeless River]] and restores peace to [[Disney Castle]]. Sora fuses with Donald to obtain this form. The Form turns Sora's clothing blue and black, with blue flames on his pants. The Wisdom Form is one of the two forms that wield one keyblade, the other one being [[Limit Form]], which is only available in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+]]''. Sora does not physically attack with the Keyblade in this form, but instead shoots bullets of magic that home in on the enemy making it very difficult for the enemy to dodge. He does not walk either, but slides across the ground instead. Since it focuses on Magic, this form is the weakest of Sora's Drive Forms in terms of attacks, but its spellcasting is not to be underestimated. |
| {{Main|Form:Sora}}
| |
| Wisdom Form turns Sora's clothing blue and black, with an emblem, resembling blue flames, on the ends of his pants and sleeves.<ref>In the original version of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Sora's sleeves erroneously bear [[Master Form]]'s emblem. This is corrected in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]''.</ref> Wisdom Form changes designs depending on the world he is in:
| |
| *In [[Timeless River]], Sora's appearance does not change. However, his HUD sprite gains a blue tint.
| |
| *In [[Halloween Town]], Sora's mask is changed into a {{ff|Blue Mage}}.
| |
| *In [[Christmas Town]]{{FMII}}, Sora's hat and the back of his shirt sport a blue flame.
| |
| *In [[Space Paranoids]], Sora's circuitry becomes a deep blue.
| |
|
| |
|
| Sora wields only one Keyblade in this form. While in Wisdom Form, specks of [[light]] float around Sora's legs. There is also a blue magical mist surrounding Sora's feet that turns into two light blue wisps, one rising from each foot, when Sora slides across landscape. Sora's ability to slide across the ground covers his entire body with him sliding across the ground on his back during some combos. The only time Sora actually stands is when he lands from a jump. These wisps circle Sora in a manner similar to a double helix when Sora is stationary.
| | While fighting in this form, Sora can develop the physical ability to dash rapidly called "Quick Run", which occasionally serves as an ability to dodge attacks or travel through areas quickly. |
|
| |
|
| Sora moves acrobatically in this form, spinning the Keyblade idly behind his back when not moving, and flipping around when shooting magic bullets. He also tosses the Keyblade into the air when he jumps, catching it when he reaches its height.
| | ==Leveling Up== |
| | [[Image:Wisdom_Form.jpg|left|200px]] |
|
| |
|
| ==Mechanics==
| | Upgrading Wisdom Form is slightly harder than [[Valor Form]], as Valor can upgrade levels by performing moves while Wisdom's level is upgraded by the destruction of a Heartless in order to gain experience! |
| Wisdom Form is a magic-oriented form that limits Sora to one Keyblade. In this form, Sora can execute quicker magic combos with stronger finishers. Instead of attacking directly with the Keyblade, Sora shoots rapid, ranged but weak projectiles from the tip of his Keyblade. In terms of mobility, Sora skids across the ground instead of walking and has a very low jump. However, it can also slide across long distances quickly. | |
|
| |
|
| Wisdom Form gains [[experience]] for every [[Heartless]] defeated. Leveling up upgrades the form's [[Growth Ability]], [[Quick Run]], for both itself and Sora's standard form. The standard form is also granted the [[Auto Wisdom]], [[MP Rage]] and [[MP Haste]] [[abilities]] through [[level]] ups.

| ==Strategy== | | ===Actions=== |
| Wisdom Form is very proficient at magic, and is useful against enemies that are hard to defeat at close range, such as the [[Hot Rod]], or have [[defense]] against physical attacks, such as [[Large Bodies]]. While in Wisdom Form, Sora glides along the ground rather than running, and becomes able to perform commands while moving. His spell casting is sped up and all his magic finishers increase in power as well and gain new, enhanced properties. Always be mindful of [[Reflect]] for defense in place of [[Guard]], and be prepared to cast [[Cure]], as Donald is unable to help in this manner. The [[Fatal Crest]] should be equipped when using Wisdom Form in combat, as it boosts Magic, and its [[Berserk Charge]] allows Sora to continually fire Wisdom Shot while his MP is depleted. The form's unique "Shoot" command forms many viable strategies against the [[Mushroom XIII]], owing to the attack's range and rapid fire, but suffers from a naturally weaker damage output compared to other attacks. Make sure the party has [[Ether]]s and [[Elixir]]s to keep using stronger magic, along with MP Rage and MP Haste. | | {|class="wikitable" width="100%" |

| |
|
| Since Wisdom Form levels by defeating Heartless, a good place to train it is the windows to the past in [[Timeless River]], a cycle of rooms filled with weak Heartless that allow Sora to go from room to room, quickly respawning the Heartless within, while also having easy access to the World Exit for refilling the [[Drive Gauge]] and a [[Save Point]] for refilling the [[MP Gauge]] from any of the rooms. Most Heartless here can be defeated in with minimal spell casting or a few Wisdom Shots, so the best Keyblade to equip is the [[Oathkeeper]] for its [[Form Boost]] ability. Another great place to train is the city portion of the [[World That Never Was]]. [[Shadow]]s appear in large numbers and are very weak, also there is a save point at the entrance of the Castle to exit the world to refill the Drive Gauge.

|
| When using Wisdom Form for proper combat, it is best to equip Keyblades with high Magic [[stats]], as all of Sora's attacks, including the basic Wisdom Shot, are magical in nature. Alternatively, Keyblades that boost Sora's Magic damage in one way or another, such as [[Bond of Flame]], [[Mysterious Abyss]], or [[Photon Debugger]], as well as Keyblades that benefit his MP like [[Circle of Life]], are useful as well.

| | '''Pros'''<br> |
| [[File:Sora (Wisdom Form) SSBU.png|right|200px|Sora's Wisdom Form in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''.]] | | *Good enhancements in Magic casting. |
| Sora's Wisdom Form appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as an outfit variation for Sora. In this game, Wisdom Form's design is modified to fit Sora's ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'' outfit. | | *Actions can be executed while moving around. |
| {{-}}
| | *Long range attacks, bullets slightly home. |
| | *Hard for enemies to hit while moving around. |
| | *Spells can be cast extremely quickly. |
| | *Has the greatest magic haste of any form. |
| | |
| | '''Cons''' |
| | *Hit and run tactics are needed when Sora is out of MP. Though with Wisdom's MP Hastega ability, this period is not overly long. |
| | *Attacking is difficult when close up (midair, small enemies close to Sora, such as [[Rapid Thruster|Rapid Thrusters]]). |
| | *EXPs are gained with the destruction of Heartless (meaning Sora will have to deliver the finishing blow), which can be annoying for starters. This can be negated by placing your other party member on 'Sora attack', they will not finish Heartless. |
| | *Wisdom is firmly planted on the ground, any form of attack will not help it stay in the air long. |
| | |
| | == Helpful Hints == |
| | *As this form only levels when it defeats a Heartless, the best place to level it up is where there are many weak Heartless, close together. For example, the four scenes in Timeless River contain many Heartless that are weak to magic and can quickly be taken down with Thunder spells, in the world that never was there is an abundance of weak shadows where you can fight, and the door to Disney Castle can be used to immediately refill your Drive Gauge without having to go back to your Gummi Ship. |
| | |
| | *Alternatively, just as for [[Valor Form]], Wisdom Form can be leveled up by training in the '''Chasm of Challenges''' in Agrabah. The key is to defeat all Heartless within the time limit while in Wisdom Form. If your drive gauge is higher than 5, you may attempt the trials twice. Either way, once you are done, head to the nearby [[Save Point]], exit and re-enter the world using the same Save Point to replenish your Drive Gauge so that you may continue training. |
| | |
| | *When releasing the Blizzard combo finish, it is better to be farther away from your opponent, as the shots begin homing after traveling some distance. |
| | |
| | == Representation == |
| | This form represents Sora's magic and wisdom. |
| | |
| | ==Trivia== |
| | |
| | * The Official Art shows Sora's sleeves with blue flames, but in-game the sleeves have the same design as the Master Form's. This seems to be a mistake, Square Enix changed the sleeves in Final Mix back to the original Blue Flames. |
| | |
| | * When in [[Halloween Town]], Sora's usual mask changes to look like that of a Black Mage from Final Fantasy. |
| | |
| | * Sora moves acrobatically in this form, spinning the keyblade idly behind his back when not moving, and flipping around when shooting magic bullets. He also tosses the Keyblade into the air when he jumps, catching it when he reaches his height. |
| | |
| | * Along with Limit Form, this is the only form without [[Sync Blade]] (excluding Anti-Form in which you don't get any Keyblades). |
| | |
| | * This is the only time when Sora's main style is long range. |
| | |
| | * Only seconds before Wisdom form is gained, Merlin told Sora to "Think wisely". |
| | |
| | * During Max Quick run is the fastest Sora can move, though it does not last forever. |
| | |
| | * With its unending long range shots, quickness of casting magic (especially Reflega), and ability to dodge away at a high speed, Wisdom Form can be used to defeat some bosses cheaply. |
| | |
| | * Adding Ultima weapon to Wisdom form seems to only upgrade magic recovery to Hasteja, increasing it to two times (Haste, Hastera, Hastega, Hasteja) Circle of life does something between 1.75 times and 2 times. |
|
| |
|
| ==Notes and references==
| | * Unlike regular Sora or any other form, Wisdom form will continue and complete its entire ground combo even if there is nothing around to target. |
