Ruler of the Sky

Strategy, Location, Etc.

Ruler of the Sky is located in a unique violet treasure chest that blocks the way between you and the end of the level. Once you open the chest, this annoyance pops out. As he rules the sky, he is always airborne, so be sure to have abilities such as Glide and High Jump equipped, as these will be a vital asset.

The trick to defeating this pest is to remember its two modes: Flight Mode and Berserk Mode. When in Flight Mode, chase after it while dodging its attacks, and destroy sections of its tail. Each section is destroyed after dealing a total of five attacks on them, whether they be Brave or HP. Hitting the tail with an HP attack will NOT deal HP damage to the Heartless itself. After a section is destroyed, it will go into Berserk Mode, where it executes different attacks instead. After destroying all three sections of his tail, he goes into a Vicious Mode, causing him to attack much more frequently, with a combination of the attacks he uses in Flight and Berserk Mode.

Brave Attacks

Move	Type	Mode	Description
Water Splash	Aerial	Flight	Sends a small, glowing ball of Water-elemental magic at target. Summons a pillar of ice in Vicious Mode. (Pillar deals Ice damage in Vicious Mode)
Zeninage	Aerial	Berserk	Tosses a barrage of coins. They may damage, but each one awards a small Munny bonus once you win the battle - if you manage to do so. In Vicious Mode, the Ruler of the Sky turns to face the player character's general direction.
Tail Lash	Aerial	Berserk	Strikes with tail scorpion-style. Cannot be used in Vicious Mode.

VoidCommanderExdeath - The memory's wiles can be cruel. In its silence, we forget. In its obsession, it binds our hearts. TALK - Your existence is worth nothing ! Yeah, I decided to open up a Peanut Gallery so we can comment on each other's work. In other news, I suck at tables DX. This setup is so weird...

Xelias0 - So...it seems your hearts have led you to obliteration. Perhaps it doesn't pay to be too loyal to one's heart. I will have to be sure and remember that. TALK - My name is of no importance. ...And this is why I chose to call you from another wiki (you are the only member I invited - others asked by themselves to integrate the team.) : your moveset-making genius. However, please use the table I gave you as a reference (you didn't find it - it was in standard enemies. If you do other heartless, remove the "mode" section from the template but use it.) Don't worry, I suck at tables too. Except that I steal templates from others and modify them so they would suit my project. Oh and by the way, your story location idea is sadistic - in other words, I love it. Would be even better if the treasure chest was optional - the player would want to kill himself, heheheh... But somethings bugs me : how does the Ruler lose his tail ? Number of Brave Attacks ? of HP attacks ? Because one could simply gather enough bravery with concentration or things like that to perform a one-hit kill. Or the Heartless must be at a very, very high level. Or that you put him very low hp and make him a multi-stage boss, like Chaos. Each tail fragment would be a different stage. I personally prefer this idea, tell me what do you think.

VoidCommanderExdeath - The memory's wiles can be cruel. In its silence, we forget. In its obsession, it binds our hearts. TALK - Your existence is worth nothing ! Well, that is a nice idea. I'll see what I can do with that. Relax, as he's a required boss, he'll be around a decent enough level for the player to kill. It was supposed to reference how his mission was mandatory in Days, as well as his location (Remember how Hook found him in a chest?).

Xelias0 - So...it seems your hearts have led you to obliteration. Perhaps it doesn't pay to be too loyal to one's heart. I will have to be sure and remember that. TALK - My name is of no importance. I just saw the chest both as a reference to his appearance and a way to annoy the player. I just love to mess with someone's mind. Give a player a treasure chest near an easy to beat enemy with PA+1 near him - he will think of it as an occasion of getting a free chest and... Yeah, I'm a little bit of a sadist in game making...
