Linking with a Spirit uses up the Link Gauge, which appears below its profile sprite. If one Spirit's Link Gauge is full, a {{nihongo|'''Single Link'''|}} can be initiated with it, and when both active Spirits have full Link Gauges, a {{nihongo|'''Dual Link'''|}} can be initiated with both of them. While a link is in effect, the Link Gauge or Gauges will steadily deplete until empty, although links can be ended or interrupted prematurely | Linking with a [[Spirit]] uses up the Link Gauge, which appears below its profile sprite.

Latest revision as of 16:47, 5 November 2024
This article is about the Link System from Dream Drop Distance. You may be looking for Link Summons in Kingdom Hearts III. |
The Link System (リンクシステム Rinku Shisutemu ) is a game mechanic that appears in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. It allows Sora and Riku to harness the powers of the Spirit Dream Eaters in their party.
Linking with a Spirit uses up the Link Gauge, which appears below its profile sprite. If one Spirit's Link Gauge is full, a Single Link can be initiated with it, and when both active Spirits have full Link Gauges, a Dual Link (デュアルリンク Dyuaru Rinku ) can be initiated with both of them. While a link is in effect, the Link Gauge or Gauges will steadily deplete until empty, although links can be ended or interrupted prematurely.
Sora and Riku each use a different type of link with the Dream Eaters in their party.
Mechanics[edit]
There are multiple ways to increase the Link Gauge; some methods increase the Link Gauge of both active Spirits, and some only apply to a single Spirit. The Link Gauge fills more quickly when Link Accelerator is active.
Condition | Number of Spirits | Link Gauge increase per level of Link Accelerator | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
None | LV1 | LV2 | LV3 | ||
Spirit attacks the enemy or receives damage from an enemy's attack. | 1 | Basic value × Power value of attack × (10 + current Affinity level) %.For Magic commands, the power value becomes 1/4 of the original. Basic value is 0.5, increasing by 0.1 per level of Link Accelerator. | |||
Spirit attacks an enemy in unison with Sora or Riku when Link Critical is equipped. (This percentage is added to the above percentage for attacks.) |
1 | 10% | 12% | 14% | 16% |
Spirit heals or supports Sora or Riku. | 1 | 10% | 12% | 14% | 16% |
Successful use of Link Block. | 1 | 10% | 12% | 14% | 16% |
Reviving a Spirit when its HP reaches zero. | 1 | 25% | 30% | 35% | 40% |
Sora or Riku is damaged when Damage Syphon is equipped. | Both | 0.5% | 0.6% | 0.7% | 0.8% |
Use Break Time and obtain the Link Gauge accumulation effect. | Both | 100% | |||
Use an Elixir or Megalixir. | Both | 100% | |||
Use a Dream Candy. | Both | 50% (Increases by 5% for every stack of Item Boost equipped.) | |||
Roll the "Megalixir" icon when using the Lucky Dice Link Attack with the Juggle Pup or R & R Seal. | Both | 100% |
Link Attack[edit]
Sora can join with a Spirit to execute a Link Attack (リンクアタック Rinku Atakku ), a special technique utilizing the Spirit's natural abilities. Many species of Dream Eater have unique Link Actions associated with them, although some techniques are shared between species.
