As the boss is a simulation of Master Eraqus, it possesses and will utilize some, if not all of Master Eraqus's attacks as well as a few light-based attacks of its own. The Armor of the Master can perform a long powerful combo with its Keyblade, throwing the player into the air during the combo and using a different combo finisher depending on the character being played; as Terra, the boss will perform a series of downward slashes that create shockwaves, knocking the player upward and leaving them up for more damage; as Ven, the boss will perform flying slashes similar to Stratosphere and Air Drive; as Aqua, the boss will perform a Barrier Surge-like attack and finish with a slow moving magic bubble. It is advised to block the boss's attacks and counter with a Reprisal to damage the boss and gain invincibility. The boss can perform Eraqus' Sonic-Blade-like attack, shoot magical orbs that home in on the player if not deflected and several magical blades that will seek out the player; both projectiles can be deflected back to the boss to damage it. The boss can create magical blades to it's will, periodically ensnare the player in chains of light, and if successful, will gain a seal on its back and changing many of his attacks. His Sonic Blade-like attack will be changed to resemble a Iaido-style technique, inflicting many hits and its basic Keyblade combo will be quicker and may ensnare the player in a seal, lifting up the player and slamming the player back into the ground with a downward slash, similar to Marluxia's Flower Storm in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]''.

Its torso is covered of dull, faded green armor and sports a small Mark of Mastery symbol in its center. The rest of the armor on its arms, legs, and chest are predominantly bronze and silver. Its pointed, armored boots are black and gold and its upper arms and thighs have wide, supplementary armor with gold edges covering them.

The helmet is also decorated by three long, thin, silver pikes on its top and sides. Its hands and neck are covered by a black material.
