Story
Day 173: Lies
Axel talked to Saix about Xion, sadly, no answer :( Roxas seems pretty happy knowing Saix would stop calling her "Broken", though. And... Look! a new tutorial! It's been awhile, hasn't it?
Tutorial: Powering Up Abilities
Basically, some abilities panels costs more than one panel. We already knew about that, though, this tutorial is late, really. Abilities that costs one panel are like Weapon panels, they can be linked with additional panels to power up the ability, like the Air Dash panel. If you equip an Air Slide LV+ panel, you can dash twice in the air.
Roxas's Diary
You get another entry for Roxas's Diary: Day 172: Xion's Collapsed.
Tasks/Gifts
- Talk to Axel, he'll give you a task to equip a weapon panel with 3 or more units attached. By now, you should already use one, so talk to him again, and Saix will have a new mission for you.
- Talk to Luxord, he'll ask you to synthesize a weapon with Gear Component A, Rune Tech, and Bronze, which is the Chrono Gear+. Go make one if you haven't, and talk to Luxord again afterwards. You'll receive a Shining Gem.
Shop
- You can now synthesize: Duel Gear++, Phantom Gear++, Prestige Gear+, Crisis Gear, Raider's Ring, Thunder Charm, Recovery Ring, and Vitality Ring.

First things first, you'll need 8 Fire panels. Either bring some and restore them with Ethers or Hi-Ethers, or use the magic multiplier panel, which I highly recommend and you should've used one by now. I also recommend bringing in some extras for Snowy Crystals or Skater Bomb. Alright then, welcome to Halloween Town again! If you look at your right you'll see a weird, floating balloon, examine it and... OMG GIANT WORMS!! Yes, interacting with floating balloons will make Heartless appear, so try and find as many as you can! Also, bones are scattered around again, which means you can pick one for Zero. Check around the Plaza for some balloons, then go to the Graveyard. In the Graveyard, you'll see a cutscene involving Jack and Zero. Apparently he has a new idea of using lanterns. after the cutscene, lit the four lanterns using fire, examine the coffin, and go towards the gate. Then you'll see the coffin opens up. Proceed. In the next area, lit up the four lanterns again and go to the newly opened door. Prepare for a boss battle!
They're quite easy really. whenever you see a pumpkin with a huge number above them, BARREL ROLL DODGE ROLL!. Chase them afterwards and attack them one-by-one. Don't worry, their dashing attacks deals a small amount of damage.
Rats, they got away >:( Hey look, it's Zero! Give him the bone to ask for his help and find the rest of the Heartless.

Okay... a target hunting mission... and we're paired with Demyx? Sheesh, what's Xemnas thinking? :/ Oh well, can't be too pic-WHAT'S THAT BEHIND YOUR BACK?! Oh, a Unity Badge. Grab it.
Head to the plaza and be prepared for our target will show up.
Yikes, it's huge. Btw, you'll see a Snowy Crystal here, don't bother to attack it since a new one will spawn. As big and menacing as it is, it's waaaaaay weaker than Zip Slasher. It almost has the same move pattern, it blocks by crossing both of its swords in front of him before doing the spinning-thrust attack. Now, don't worry, this time, the spinning-thrust attack won't heal it. It also got another move at his disposal, it'll fire an Aerora spell, so be sure to dodge that one or you'll fly (then again, flying sounds fun...). All-in-all, you should beat this Heartless with ease. Try and block its spinning-thrust attack, it'll be staggered for awhile which leaves you a chance to beat it up.
Grab a badge on the top of the fountain, and head for the house besides the entrance to the graveyard, and grab another badge and open up a chest there. RTC afterwards since there're nothing left to do.

Ugh, I hate emblem collecting mission. I really have no tips for these kinds of mission, it depends on yourself really, how good you can handle Roxas's movement and stuff. I think the only tip I can give you here is to equip Air Slide and High Jump panel. Also, be on the lookout for Sapphire Eleggies and Grey Caprises since they both drop Rune Tech and Gear Component B, respectively. And Gigas-Shadow also drops Elixir recipe, so you may want to beat them up, too.
