Contents

The Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Strategy Guide begins like previous guides, detailing game basics and controls, introducing the heroes and/or heroines, and all of your companions. How it differs from previous guides is it three guides put together as one, single cohesive guide, this is because there are three separate heroes with three separate but similar stories. The guide is put together with the suggested order of Terra, Ventus, and finally Aqua. This is because the creators of the game feel this order makes the most sense out of the story. Although the guide is read Terra, Ventus, Aqua, one can play any order they wish. As one finishes a story the guide focuses entirely on the next story, with no explanations of what just happened in the previous one. This is due to the fact the Author, Casey Loe, did not wish to "spoil" any part of the story until you reached the Final Episode. After you have completed all three stories, the guide details the events of the Final Episode & Secret Bosses, all Mini-Games, the Mirage Arena, Keyblades, Key Items, and all Battle Commands using what the author calls the Commandpedia. Following the Commandpedia is the Bestiary and all Acknowledgments.

Errors

  • In the strategy for the battle against Terra/Xehanort, his name is misspelled as "Terra/Xenahort" (pg. 75).
  • In the strategy for the battle against Terra/Xehanort, the Chaos Ripper Keyblade is called by its Japanese name, "Chaos Reaper" (pg. 75).
  • On Ventus's map of Disney Town, the Mickey Sticker is listed as "Mickey Crystal" (pg. 100).
  • On Ventus's walkthrough of Olympus Coliseum, the Prize Pods are listed as dropping "Nutty Nut" ingredients (pg. 108).
  • On Aqua's map of Radiant Garden, a chest containing a Hi-Potion is listed as containing a "ハイポーション" (pg. 140).
  • On Aqua's map of Keyblade Graveyard, it does not indicate the location of the Bubble Sticker (pg. 171).
  • In the Final Episode section, the list states that Xehanort Report 5 is earned through the "Weaver Fever" Mirage Arena event, instead of through the "Sinister Sentinel" event (pg. 177).
  • "Vanitas Remnant" is listed as "Vanitas's Lingering Spirit" based on its battle tagline (pg. 181).
  • "Unknown" is listed as "Mysterious Figure" based on a translation of its Japanese name (pg. 183).
  • In the strategy for the battle against the Unknown, it is recommended that the player rely mainly on their Shotlock. However, the multiple hits involved in a Shotlock will cause the Unknown to raise a shield that restores HP when hit, thus making the Shotlock more of a hindrance than an aid during this battle (pg. 183).
  • The Ringer Ticket is listed under its Japanese name, "Anger Ticket" (pg. 191).
