Ripple Drive

Ripple Drive allows the user to generate a pink crystalline lattice around themselves as they swing their Keyblade.

Ripple Drive (リップルドライヴ, Rippuru Doraivu) is an ability that appears in Kingdom Hearts Final Mix and Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix. It allows the user to unleash an aura attack that damages surrounding enemies.

Mechanics

In Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, Ripple Drive is a combat ability that grants Sora a combo finisher when surrounded by multiple targets. It requires 3 AP to equip. Its attack power is relative to Sora's maximum MP. After hitting the enemy, Sora takes 45 frames to recover (1.3 seconds). The animation used is the same as Proud Roar's.

In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Ripple Drive is an action ability accessible in Limit Form. It is a combo finisher that activates when Sora is surrounded, and deals damage relative to his Magic stat.
