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

theme credit

do you think this new HSC is as frustating as the Vanitas¿? cause it's really painfull to me to not being able to reach that scores... U_U even more with the fact that [EX]Cloud is not a highscore+ again...

Admittedly, I haven’t even tried the new HSC yet >/////< It’s been a really hectic week.  My girlfriend’s birthday and our six month anniversary are in the same week so I’ve been making gifts in my free time (because I’m too poor to buy her anything *cries*).  I’m surprised I found time for the Saix guide!

However, my party members seem to have an easier time with this HSC than the last one.

Your opinion on the VIP "deal" for guilting/traiting EX KH3 Sora?

Uhhhh.  Well.  It’s complicated, I guess.  On one hand, everyone got a free giveaway EX medal, which has some great buffs and the Str is awesome.  And with Copy Arts, it’s a really good medal to have, regardless of guilt or traits.  So that’s cool.  Also, though JP’s version is stronger, it’s weaker comparatively to their current medals (still T5 guilt).  So I think the global version got the better deal.  Plus global has the “option” to guilt it, which JP doesn’t (yet).

I think it’s definitely not worth $90 to guilt it.  But with 0.2 Kairi coming up, VIP T5 medals, and additional 1400 jewels every few weeks, it’s just another added incentive to the weekly VIPs.  Plus then you get trait rolls and…

I don’t know.  My take on it is this: if you’re someone who usually buys the weekly deals, this is great.  If you’re someone who is on the fence, this might push you over.  But if you’re F2P or you don’t really have the money, you’re not missing a lot.

I think the biggest problem with this “deal” is that it simply isn’t in the spirit of the announcement.  They showed us a new trailer, a new world, and gave us a release date, but they are holding $90 over our heads for one guilted medal?  No.  Like, it’s cool that they gave one away to everyone, but releasing only one a week is blatant money-grabbing.  Why not give one away and put seven more on a one-week VIP?  Just about everyone would buy it!

In short, the whole thing is really greedy.  But it’s also not really surprising.

What are the objectives for quest 9 on the organization xiii event?

All objectives for the Saix event are “Complete without continuing”.  I completely forgot to include that in the guide, so I’ll edit it right now.  Thank you for bringing it to my attention! :D

Hey I just wanted to say that i love your KHUX guides and also (this may be dumb but ok) that I like how you say "blue board" and "pink board" instead of girl/female and boy/male :) Have a nice day!

Thank you so so so much!!

I actually have a non-binary friend who changes their character gender every few weeks. And I have a few other friends who pick the girl characters because they have nicer clothes and I have one friend that picks a guy character because of the Neku headphones. With so many non-conforming players, I thought “boy” and “girl” boards were sort of stupid. So I say Blue and Pink instead. ^_^ That way players can wear whatever they want without feeling pressured!

With the new Key Arts (Air, Bonds & the other one), does it matter if they're guilted? Or do they copy a medal exactly, down to guilts and traits and all that?? Thanks in advance! This blog is a blessing lol

This is a great question!! I actually had the same question about the new Key Arts (which are now colloquially named Copy Arts).

They use their own:
-Strength
-Guilt
-Traits
-Skill
-Slot multiplier
-Cost

They use the previous medal’s:
-Multiplier
-Type
-Number of hits
-Buffs/debuffs, when applicable

In other words, guilting, boosting, and trait rolls are all very important on the Copy Arts. They can make any non-guilted medal do guilted damage, or have medals with sucky trait rolls use really good trait rolls. A guilted Copy Art with Str +1000 or -60% Ground and Aerial with Cloud EX would just be the end of the world. o_o But non-guilted Copy Arts can be useful too for buffs like Tieri or +3 Str medals. Or if you draw the new Dragon Maleficent! Getting Extra Attack on Copy Art also makes it a huge asset to Coliseum because you can Defense Down like crazy.

I have a huge love for Copy Arts. I think they are very versatile. And you are guaranteed to have one guilted in 10 pulls, but probably more like 6. That’s better than any banner we’ve had for a long time.

Anyway, I hope this helped!!

hello¡! So far now in your time playing KHUX, do you have a list of real powerfull medals¿? Im asking, because, I was lucky enough to get a Boosted EXCLOUD, I used Fantasia B's, CHIP's, DALE's even buy an ABIV Scrooge to fully power it up. and it hits between 104K - 390K. And I was thinking, Which medals could pack a punch like that¿? I've only seen an HD Ursula do even more damage -500K ( 0_0)-

Unfortunately it’s extremely situational. Boosted and trait rolls factor in more than anything, and now you have Proud keyblades with exceptional multipliers. There’s not really a list of best medals. I would say situationally, Tieri is the best in the game, then probably EX Cloud. Any Tier 5 guilt with -60% Ground and Aerial Def. The +3 type buff medals (like KA6, iRoxas, Ursula, etc.) are great if they are guilted. The new Key Art ABC (BBS?) and Namine.

I hope this helps a little!!

Hi! quick question: are the Gem Boards or Sky/Air/Beginning KA Medals this week worth it? Or should I start hoarding for 0.2 Kairi? My keyblades are all at 25, and I feel like I shouldn't start spending Gems until I have a Proud Keyblade, but I'm not sure! Sorry if this is a dumb question!

Sorry for the delay!!

The gem boards are absolutely worth it in my opinion. Even if you don’t spend them now, it’s great to have them on hand for when you have your Proud keyblades leveled. Unless you’re a top 100 player, gems are hard to come by. Usually an Avatar board only comes with one and costs more jewels.

As for the new Key Arts, I definitely think they are worth pulling for. They can re-use any medal you have which is great for buffs without double activation (the EX medals or some +3 type strengths). But their real advantage is turning a non guilted medal into a guilted one. I’ve been using mine with my WoFF Cloud which makes him 150%, boosted, with traits. It makes a lot of Tier 3s good again.

Plus. Mathematically. You can only pull 10 times before one of them is guaranteed guilted. More than likely, you’ll have one guilted at 5 or 6 pulls. That’s a better deal than even the mercy deals.

Hope this helps!!

I was wondering if you had any suggestions to beat the 5th round of "Legendary Challenge" with the Mickey Medal cuz' I'm helplessly lost

Yes!  Actually my roommates and I figured out a really good trick to this.

1.) Have a cleanse to keep yourself safe from his buffs
2.) Pooh Bear.  Praying for Defense Boost procs is really stupid.  Getting +4 S-Def will keep you safe.  So that’s, Pooh Bear and a friend’s Pooh Bear.  Vexen B is a good alternative, as well as the new Orchestra Sora.  Cinderella & Jaq works.

After that, it’s just attrition.  Keep fighting until you win!

Hope this helped.

Did you know that the ending for 0.2 was originally going to be very... Different. One draft involve Aqua resigning to the fact that she was just doomed to always be miserable while another involved her losing what remains of her sanity and screaming at the heavens. Nomura decided that the ending we got was the most fitting of her character arc. Would you agree?

O_O I did not know that.

Well.  I think resigning herself to misery goes against the plot of 0.2.  I think her self-analysis and recognition of the darkness is what’s really important about her character development.  She went through BBS talking about how Terra has darkness in him and how that’s so bad, since those were Eraqus’s teachings.  But now she has to experience her own darkness firsthand as the Dark World draws it out of her.  And she also comes to trust in the guiding light of her friends in her weakest moments.  I think if she gave into darkness or lost herself, the plot of 0.2 would have had to be very different.

I think 0.2′s representation of Aqua is probably very fitting for her character.  She hasn’t lost her mind, but she’s not the same girl she was ten years ago.  You can see the cracks in her sanity: her self hatred, the way she talks to herself, and her hope constantly wavering.  I hope the next time Aqua makes an appearance, she still has these cracks.  I think it would be more interesting and in line with her character to see her struggle with the aftermath of this trauma than it would be to see another KH character give into darkness.  

That being said, if she just acts like the same old Aqua I am going to be pissed. >_<

Thanks for the ask!!

Hey, I recently had a falling out with another KH blog, and I was wondering if this is an appropriate place for discussing theories?

You had a falling out with a KH blog?! o_o  Maybe their friends weren’t their power…

As for theories, I’m totally open to discussions if you want to send me something in private messenger!  I’ll probably keep the blog centered on my personal thoughts and opinions.  But if you send an Ask about a theory, I’ll definitely give my opinion!!
