If all three archer Heartless are destroyed (by Blocking and reflecting the cannonballs), the Infernal Engine begins to spit out boxes containing [[Soldier]] Heartless, which stop spawning after a period of time. After the Soldier Heartless stop spawning, the Infernal Engine resumes attacking; the archer Heartless respawn after about two attacks. | If all three archer Heartless are destroyed (by Blocking and reflecting the cannonballs), the Infernal Engine begins to spit out boxes containing [[Soldier]] Heartless, which stop spawning after a period of time.

The Infernal Engine's battering ram is its weak point. Compared to attacking the Engine normally (when the ram is retracted), attacking the ram deals substantially more damage in a short period of time, and is the quickest way to defeat the Engine. The Engine only performs this attack when it has been pushed back to the opposite end of the bridge. To bait out the battering ram, | The Infernal Engine's battering ram is its weak point. Compared to attacking the Engine normally (when the ram is retracted), attacking the ram deals substantially more damage in a short period of time, and is the quickest way to defeat the Engine. The Engine only performs this attack when it has been pushed back to the opposite end of the bridge. To bait out the battering ram, defeat the archers and then use aerial combos against Infernal Engine repeatedly. When the Engine starts to use its battering ram, land as many attacks as possible, then immediately run away to avoid the attack. | ||
A useful strategy is to use the Infernal Engine's attacks to damage Roxas into Limit range before attacking the Engine and pushing it back. When the Engine begins to use its battering ram, activate Roxas's Limit Break, land as many hits as possible, then move away before the Engine begins to charge forward. Repeat this process as many times as needed until the Infernal Engine is defeated. | A useful strategy is to use the Infernal Engine's attacks to damage Roxas into Limit range before attacking the Engine and pushing it back.
