Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep

[Tobi]

Found a faster way to farm Medals. Just get 4 Megaflares, which is easy and quick to get endgame, then lvl them up to lvl6, I lvled them in Olympus Coliseum, the wave of enemies right outside the save point, use stitch summon, and just kill waves using Zero Graviga, Thundaga Shot, Thundara, and Thundaga, should have Megaflare lvl6 in 2-3min tops, this also the fastest place I found to lvl skills. Once you have all Megaflares, do Arena Match called Risky Riches. On first round, use only one Megaflare, this should take all waves for that round, repeat the same for round 2, then use the last 2 Megaflares in 3rd round and you'll be done in 30 sec flat. You get 100-105 Medals every 30 sec, I found this to be most efficient way to farm Medals. You can get 9999 in under an hour. You can do this without 4 Megaflares but it'll take a bit longer, try to get at least 2 Megaflares, then use the other slots on different AoE skills, Thundaga/Thundaga Shot works great along with Magnega.

Also, I don't think you need to lvl the Megaflares to max lvl, they can probably take out all the waves at just lvl1 using only one Megaflare per round. I just lvled them up anyway since only takes 2-3min with Stitch Double CP Auto Ability.

Just started playing this properly and the more I play the more I wish this was on PS3 or something. Just curious, but did anyone else find Terra's first boss hard? Shit took me like 3-4 tries before I beat it, but every boss after that has barely touched me.

I might give up on lvl 1 critical until I understand the game better, just level up normally. Lots of fun though, I'm enjoying this as much as I enjoyed KH2, and I've barely started.

[Gokulo]

Both Terra and Ventus first bosses proved to be somewhat of a challenge on Proud Mode for me, but after that everything gets a lot easier. You gain levels fast, you can lv up and combine abilities plus add passives and so on.

[Tobi]

After being rudely awaken by my twin sister I figured I'd play for a bit before heading back to sleep. Managed to get my last two trophies this morning, so now I finally have all trophies. Currently 97% done with Trinity Archives, just need to Item Collection and Ming-Games 100% to be completely done with the game. After that I'll be doing lvl1 CM run.

Picked this game up a couple days ago, loving it so far. I'm doing Terra's storyline at the moment and I have a question for when I finish. Do I have to start a new file? Or does finishing one story let me pick one of the other 2? If the latter; does main character level + items cross over? Or do you start from zilch again?

I had to start a new file. Nothing is crossed over afaik.

[samalis]

Start new character but it lets you skip beginning/tutorial so you can pick Terra or Ven. Nothing crosses over.

[Insanecyclone]

I hate this ice cream game req for ven's story. Currently at the hour mark and I still keep getting BAD on it.

What the fuck

[Tobi]

Was posting on PSP earlier, so couldn't really post each Trophy but here they are.

Power Walker - Proof you have taken 99,999 steps.
Keyslinger - Proof you have taken out 9,999 Unversed.
Clockwork - Proof you have played for 80 hours or more.
Arena Sweeper - Proof you have finished every quest.
Dairy Devotee - Proof you have activated Frozen Fortune 30 times.
In the Munny - Proof you have amassed 33,333 munny.
One Down - Proof you have finished one character's story.
Trinity Trophy - Proof you have finished all the stories in Proud Mode or above.

These Trophies took longer to get than I thought. I guess I should play around with Ultima Weapon a bit just for fun, then I'll switch back to the awesome No Name.

[Charismatic]

Sucks that I have little use for Ultima, No Name and Void Gear since I'm a Terra guy.

[Tobi]

Since I main Aqua, No Name is full time Keyblade for me since I use Magic over Physical with Aqua, although Ultima Weapon evens out both my stats, it doesn't have the reach and crit boost of No Name and Void Gear.

Anyone know stats of Sweetstack off-hand? I think that's last Keyblade I need, and I hear it's actually pretty decent, too.

[Kiarax]

Aqua's has 6 strength and 4 magic, short reach. Dunno if it's different for Ven and Terra.

I hear so many people complain about this mini-game. I finished it on the first try. ;>_>

For Sweetstack Keyblade? That's actually not a bad Keyblade since you can get it when you get access to Disney Town, IIRC. I guess No Name has highest Magic stat of all Keyblades. I was hoping to switch up Keyblades from time to time, but guess I'll just Ultima Weapon as a alt.

[Tarmo]

Is there anything special I need to do to fight VLS with Ven and Terra? I beat all three stories, beat the Final Episode, and have the secret ending, but I can only fight him with Aqua.

[Charismatic]

Odd, there's not anything special you should have to do. Should be able to just go to the Badlands and click on the crest.

[Tarmo]

Is there a certain save that needs to be loaded? I have 2 for Terra and Ven(before the final battles and after I completed their stories) and the same 2 for Aqua and then 1 before I fought Terranort and then another after I beat the Final episode.

[Tobi]

You need to load the clear save file to access Badlands after finishing all stories and last chapter.

[Atreides]

sooooo yeah

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix Announced

It looks like this week's Jump has first details on the expected "Final Mix" version of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep.

Kingdom Heart Birth By Sleep Final Mix will be released this Winter. The game has all the changes from the North American version of the game, complete with English voices and the sticker system.

Square Enix often adds a few additions just for Japanese players, but as far as I can tell Jump does not mention such areas.

this is from a JP news magazine so there's about a 0% chance we'll get it

[Insanecyclone]

Should of expected that. I assumed we got a "final mix" version by all these extras added in for us.
