Amaury

Hi. o:

I'm not sure, as I haven't worked with Windows XP in over a year x: It's probably pretty similar though, so I would give the steps I posted in the thread a shot... Otherwise you can probably get to the options through the control panel.

because I need someone to make me a dump, btw just out of curiosity how do you record gameplay if you don't use pcsx2?? do you use some sort of capture card or something?

hey amaury do you use pcsx2 and emuhaste at all??

Thank you, it's from a song. o:

Nah, I prefer it as a phrase xD I'll just do it like this.

We don't usually do it by the exact time; it's not a rule that vB has, it's one that we manually put in place because we had people changing their names every few days.

By mostly, I mean most of the time.
But yeah both phrases are valid.

Well, that's because Snipers are really easy. All you do is hit them so they don't attack, and if they do, you just use the reaction command

Here you go.
____________________________________________
Xigbar Fight - This fight is one that you can really use Reflect. You could have either guarded against Xigbar's attacks, or use Reflect. Using that spell can really help, especially against berserk mode. It saved me during that moment greatly. And your level is a serious concern. You are such a low level that even his most simple atack took like a 1/3 or a 1/4 o your HP. That's not a good thing. And it's not really a fight you want to use drives for.
Also, if you're going to keep using a keyblade that increases your combo attacks, you shouldn't use the Decisive Pumpkin. That keyblade only increases your combos when on the ground. And even then, you're still taking less damage than one of my hits.
As I've said many times before, Aerial recovery is needed for this part in the game. Like when you tried to attack Xigbar and you ended up getting flown away. It's a great tool to use to regain yourself and attack him right away. Xigbar can be a pain with how much he attacks, but using aerial combos, you can at least stun him often and get him. Using the reactions commands also make it much easier. And did you notice how your limits were useless? You can't use limits on that guy. He teleports too much.

Luxord - This fight is really simple. Comparing it to the other members, he's probably one of the easiest, if not the easiest. And I am comparing to Chain of Memories as well. All you had to do was hit him fast and hard. You don't use Trinity Limit, since that uses up some of your time. The time takes a while to take down, but just having all of your combo boost on and attacking him takes him down.
When you become a dice or card, the best you can do is just go straight at him and attack. But with your level you take too much damage, so you'll need to just attack. Using the Reaction Command also help, but if you keep attacking, you'll just hit some of the cards and destroy them. You also rely on curaga too much. You've been using that so much you always run out of MP when you need it. That's why you stock up on Hi-Potions. Even if your MP is gone, it replenshes, unlike your HP. I hardly use anything regarding MP besides Cure and Thundaga, just because thunder is a stong attack and you can't miss. But by the end of your first fight you had already lost too much time since you didn't attack him.
And the other problem with Trinity limit is that it doesn't take away Luxord's time until you finish that one giant hit. That's why attacking normally is better. And you don't want to run away when he becomes a card, you want to go to his card and use a reaction command. I just don't get why you ran away that entire time. You could have just beat up on him. You took so much time on this fight when you could have just beat him in about 2 minutes of something by whailing on him.

Saix - This fight is all about using Siax's weapon against him. If you don't, you'll end up facing an annoying boss that attacks like crazy and will be a pain to get away from unless you have Glide. Not too mention, using his weapon takes a bit of damage out of him as well. But you don't latch onto him, you have to keep next to him. And you need to keep track of his berserk bar, because otherwise you'll end up getting slammed right away. You only have so much time till you can attack him, so you need to get in as much damage as possible.
This fight is really simple. All you need to do is attack him, and when he goes berserk let him rage and throw a weapon. When he does, use that weapon against him. And just keep that pattern up. It works a lot faster than it sounds. And you should also stop relying on Donald to heal you. If you jsut rely on your allies to heal you, you're going to end up in trouble

Xemnas - This fight is really easy. First, with the Skyscraper command, you just need to wait until you're as close as you think you can get without any trouble, and use the command and beat the heck out of him. And you don't use the Trinity Limit at the beginning of the fight. Don't you know that? You always have to use that reaction command at the beginning. And make sure you keep locked on him, because otherwise you'll end up getting attacked from behind. This fight you really want to keep him in your sight, because his combo is long, and it can take a lot out of your HP. This fight took way longer than it needed to. If you had just attacked him and made sure you didn't get slammed by his combo, you would have been done in like 3/4 of the time it took you to beat him. It actually got so rediculous I was messing around on dA while you did the fight, since I knew you weren't going to do anything else.

I've no idea, I don't use Chrome.

And also, you should only have Hi-Potions in your item slots. Ethers are pretty much useless. Your MP already recharges on its own, you don't need any items for it

Oh come on, I already told you how to deal with the Beserkers. They're annoyances, sure, but you can easily deal with them.
Now the dancers, those things are annoying. I mean, just everytime they get hold of you and throw you around. Man I hate that. Beserkers are cute compared to dancers, at least imo.
But you shouldn't get too carried away with those lasers. That was made to be a "do or die" spot in the game. Either you get through, or you die, no matter what your HP is at. You lose Riku, and you're down.
I just find it cool to block all those lasers, but because I get excited I lose my rhythm and every time I feel like I'm about to lose it. Either way, don't get cocky with those lasers. Especially with your level. You need to level up. Otherwise, I hope you're really good at dodging and blocking, because that last fight is going to be a nightmare for you.

really? That's so simple it's sad when you find out. I mean, literally, I used to try and figure out how to not get sent back by that shield, but all you do is keep using that Dark Aura and keep pushing that clone back until you reach Xemnas until you use the reaction command. That's literally all it takes. You don't need to destroy the clone or anything. Just use the Aura, run a little, use it again to push to clone back, just to make sure it doesn't get close, and keep it up until you can get through and beat the crap out of Xemnas.
The one part I always fear I'll mess up on is the laser part though. It's just so cool blocking so many lasers I actually keep fearing I'll mess up with the buttons and lose. It hasn't happened yet, but that suspense is crazy. But how do you do the blocking? Do you do it one button at a time? Or do you push both at the same time?

I see why you had a problem with your main file. I mean, you had some good support abilities, some of which are pretty useless, like the Form boost, but why don't you do that in the other file? On top of that, you should take that Trinity Limit off and put on things like Slapshot and other stuff like I said. It can lead to a ton of damage. And if you like using that Pumpkin keyblade(which I hate btw), then using all those abilities I told you about are even more important to take more damage at the end

seriously? That's what you did? That's one heck of strategy to make you take a while. I mean, why would you use something like Trinity Limit? It might be useful on rare occasions, but it consumes your MP, and if you have nothing to speed it up, you're waiting like a minute and a half to use it again.

I wish I could record, so I could show you how I do it. Then you could see what I mean when I tell you the things I do

That's not a problem at all. You just have to make sure your HP is fine, and just whack away at him. That's literally all there is to it

then you buy more items. I mean, have you ever bought Hi-Potions yet? I always make sure I have at least 20 or so. They can go by really quickly.
I remember the first time I played on Proud Mode, I had gotten to the last fight with Xemnas, and I ended up losing because I ran out of items. Oddly enough, when I restarted, I ended up beating him. And I didn't even have any items.
