Hi, Im Kaci. I play too much Kingdom Hearts. If you've got questions, I've got answers.

Hello! I'm currently having trouble figuring out what I should be doing next in KHUx. I beat all the story missions, but don't have enough medals with unlocked specials above 40% to start Proud Mode. At this point, should I just bide my time until I can get gems for medal pulls and try to guilt my medals? My keyblades are all around +23 and +24, except for my Moogle keyblade. Sorry if this is a silly question, I'm just feeling kinda stuck! Thanks for making such great guides and being so nice!!

Awww thank you for the kind words!! ^_^

KHUX has a lot going on but sometimes it feels like there’s nothing at all.  Proud mode can be a huge undertaking, especially for new or infrequent players.  It relies on having a large collection of medals with a ridiculous array of versatility. Though that’s one of the fun parts about it, it’s also very limiting.

Unfortunately, there’s no bridge between “playing” for outdated, useless medals and “waiting” for enough jewels to get medals that are actually worth having.  The only thing between these two is events, but half of those are so difficult that new players can’t complete them and there is only one a week if you’re lucky.  That’s just more waiting.  So without spending $15 dollars a week to get jewels and VIP premiums, new players run into this problem of “what should I be doing now?”

This won’t always be the case!  Events like Maleficent B, Classic Donald and Goofy, and Herc & Phil bring all the new players up to the level of the rest of us. Then when you have a few of these top-tier medals you can start completing the really challenging events and get even more medals.  But again, the problem is waiting for an event like this to come along…

I actually believe events like Classic Donald and Herc & Phil should stay up for a month at a time, until they are replaced with similar events.  It’s really not fair to people who haven’t played every single day.

But as for your question: what should you do?

  • Try your best at every event
  • Log in every day for the jewels
  • Keep every Tier 2 and higher medal for guilt and Nova
  • Max guilt the farmables for Nova 
  • Union Cross gives jewels and Mirrors
  • Complete all the Adamantite Challenges on the days they are up!
  • Always go after keyblade gems, but don’t use them until you know what you want
  • Weekend raid boards for Mirrors
  • Work on Moogle O’ Glory missions - they suck
  • Don’t get too discouraged - the power creep is so high in this game that you’re always one medal away from being a total badass
  • Find an active, social party.  It makes the game a million times better.

Remember two things:

  1. All of today’s medals will be outdated soon.  You will catch up.
  2. This game is very ebb and flow.  There will be weeks where you hardly play.  That’s okay.

Hope this helps!!
