'''Limits''' are special attacks in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. Available only when a certain character is in the party and the appropriate ability is equipped, Limits enable the player and that party member to initiate devastating combo attacks at the cost of all Sora's MP. Limits can be performed from the command menu, or through the Reaction Command if the party member with the Limit ability has the Auto-Limit ability equipped also. Limits cannot be used while Sora is in [[Drive Form]].

'''Limits''' are special attacks introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. Available only when an active party member has the appropriate action ability equipped, Limits enable [[Sora]] and that party member to initiate devastating combo attacks at the cost of all Sora's MP. The MP recharge gauge stays frozen until the Limit ends. Limits can be performed from the command menu. Limits cannot be used while Sora is in a [[Drive Form]].  


Upon activating a Limit, the other character in the party besides Sora and the party member performing the Limit vanishes, and the two remaining unleash a powerful attack. For a short time after activating the Limit, the player and the other character performing the Limit are invincible, and a Limit Meter appears in the upper-right; until the Meter is depleted, the player can initiate a series of powerful attacks using Sora and the other party member, leading up to a final attack that is even more powerful after the other attacks have been used enough times.
Upon activating a Limit, the other character in the party besides Sora and the party member performing the Limit vanishes, and the two remaining unleash a powerful attack. For a short time after activating the Limit, the player and the other character performing the Limit are invincible, and a [[Limit Gauge]] appears in the upper-right; until the gauge is depleted, the characters involved can initiate a series of powerful attacks, which are either slotted over the [[Attack]] command or activated as [[Reaction Command]]s. This leads up to a powerful final attack, available once the previous attacks have been used enough times.


Limits are generally more effective against monsters than boss characters, as the Limit pulls the monsters towards the player and therefore damages them more. Some limits (e.g. Eternal Session, Trinity Limit) allow Sora to move freely, while most others (Treasure Isle, Complete Compilement) restrict movement. Limits also count as finishers, allowing them to defeat bosses.

Some limits allow Sora to move freely, while most others restrict movement. Also, most Limits feature a "Stop" command in the fourth slot of the Command Menu, allowing the limit to end prematurely.


==List of Limits==
[[Jiminy's Journal]] records information detailing the attack flow and general pattern of each limit in addition to the highest amount of hits the player has achieved for each limit.


===Main Party Members===
{{c|Auto Limit|support ability}} is a support ability that can be equipped on any party member, except Sora. This ability will make the equipped limits accessible by Reaction Command, though if the party member has more than one limit equipped, or there are more than one party members equipped with limits, the Reaction Command will be completely random.
The main three party members can equip these Limit skills and use them in any world (except the [[Pride Lands]]).


====[[Sora]]====
==List of Limits==
When the player uses this attack, it won't attack enemies immediately and must be performed by pressing one of three buttons; {{button|s}}, {{button|t}}, or {{button|x}} (replaced by {{button|c}} in Final Mix).
===Party members===
 
{|border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" style="width:70%"
:'''Trinity''' - Activated by equipping the "Trinity Limit" ability, it is perhaps the most powerful Limit technique alongside "Eternal Session". After being activated, Sora, Donald and Goofy can each execute a special move. Sora slashes enemies rapidly using the Keyblade, Donald uses ''Ultima'' to heavily damage all enemies nearby, and Goofy uses ''Major Drive'' to shoot Drive Orbs at enemies. Each of these special techniques can only be performed once during the Limit. The finishing move is ''Combo'', in which the three put their weapons together and create a field of magical energy that heavily damages all enemies while sweeping them into the air (if you're fighting a boss, he/she will stay grounded).<br><br>''Ultima'', ''Major Drive'' and ''Combo'' can only be activated if both Goofy and Donald are in the party. If only one or neither of them is with Sora, the Limit will be executed but no special abilities will be gained - Sora will perform an extremely rapid combo attack with the Keyblade by using the [[Reaction Command]] Break, although he is still invincible while the Limit bar is active. He can do this roughly three times before the limit ends. Despite its dampened power this way, this Limit is the only one that can be activated by Sora alone, making it useful for solo battles.

Afterwards, ''Quickplay'' causes either Sora or Aladdin (depend on if the Attack or Reaction command is used) to leap towards enemies slashing quickly. The finishing move is ''Trickster'', in which Sora and Aladdin leap up and touch their feet, then leap off each other.

*The Limit command is named for the [[finalfantasy:Limit Break|Limit Break]] technique in the ''Final Fantasy'' series. The exact system varies for each game, but in general Limit Breaks allow a party member to execute an extremely powerful attack, or series of attacks, based on the amount of damage they have taken in some fashion.
{{Mechanics}}
*As the Limit command takes its name from ''Final Fantasy'', so do several of the commands used. Donald's Limit techniques Flare, Comet and Ultima, are all named for spells in the ''Final Fantasy'' series, Mulan's ''Flametongue'' is a sword, and Jack Sparrow's Jackknife and Slasher are a dagger and an axe, respectively. Auron's Limit ''Bushido'' is his Limit Break in ''Final Fantasy X'', the game he originated from, and ''Shooting Star'' and ''Banishing Blade'' are two of Auron's Bushido techniques in that game. Limit Breaks in ''Final Fantasy X'' were called "Overdrives", which is the name of the ability that activates Auron's Limit technique in ''Kingdom Hearts II''.
*In [[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]], every [[Organization XIII]] member is allowed a Limit Break when their HP falls past a certain point. Each of their respective Limits allow their attack power to increase, while allowing them to utilize their own attributes to their fullest potential.

This article is about the ability from Kingdom Hearts II.
You may be looking for the ability from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.

Limits are special attacks introduced in Kingdom Hearts II. Available only when an active party member has the appropriate action ability equipped, Limits enable Sora and that party member to initiate devastating combo attacks at the cost of all Sora's MP. The MP recharge gauge stays frozen until the Limit ends. Limits can be performed from the command menu. Limits cannot be used while Sora is in a Drive Form.

Upon activating a Limit, the other character in the party besides Sora and the party member performing the Limit vanishes, and the two remaining unleash a powerful attack. For a short time after activating the Limit, the player and the other character performing the Limit are invincible, and a Limit Gauge appears in the upper-right; until the gauge is depleted, the characters involved can initiate a series of powerful attacks, which are either slotted over the Attack command or activated as Reaction Commands. This leads up to a powerful final attack, available once the previous attacks have been used enough times.

Limits are generally more effective against general enemies than bosses, as they tend to use area of effect damage and crowd control effects, which most bosses are resistant against. Limits also count as finishers, enabling them to defeat bosses. Some limits allow Sora to move freely, while most others restrict movement. Also, most Limits feature a "Stop" command in the fourth slot of the Command Menu, allowing the limit to end prematurely.

Jiminy's Journal records information detailing the attack flow and general pattern of each limit in addition to the highest amount of hits the player has achieved for each limit.

Auto Limit is a support ability that can be equipped on any party member, except Sora. This ability will make the equipped limits accessible by Reaction Command, though if the party member has more than one limit equipped, or there are more than one party members equipped with limits, the Reaction Command will be completely random.
