And she's so aggressive

Kh1's bosses were nice and consistent in that they just kept getting harder and harder
there was no easier boss in the middle there

which i guess the Behemoth is pretty easy but eh he basically becomes an enemy rather than a boss by End of the World

I find Sonic Blade chaining/combos easier to time than Strike Raid.

Genie jafar is kinda stupidly easy

Just beat her with the cheese strat.

I feel like it's more that they each offered their own kind of challenge which blended in well with the world. Guard Armour was a very physical enemy type. Trickmaster introduced Magical Combat. Cerberus was the first to use Dark Based attacks. Stealth Sneak made use of camouflage and long range attacks. Guard Armour then shaped things up with its original combat and added in more long range attacks. Jafar......Pot Centipede....Parasite Cage made use of status effects. Oogie Boogie and Ursula both made you fight gargantuan constructs with tedious mechanics . Riku was a more 1v1 battle that tested your basic combo skills and ability to block and fight someone more on your level. Maleficent was more aggressive and Ansem was everything all rolled into one.

KH1 Agrabah has the worst fights outside of Kurt Zisa

Yes

Jafar 1 is ok, the rest are poor

Pot Centipede was a nice idea with poor execution

Yeah I can forgive because of technical limitations

Currently getting clapped by Ansem Riku.

That can happen

Still getting stomped.

Any tips on beating him?

I'd like to know too. I've never been able to defeat Ansem.

Riku-Ansem I dont really have a strategy for tbh, I just use aero and block a lot

I think others use Ars Arcanum maybe?

Thanks Nova I'll try that.

I need to play KH1 again, hearing all this has given me the urge to

Thought u replayed it in ur mind every day?

Well true

Almost beat him with Strike Raid, actually.

I have a strat

First phase is easy as hell. So any time he isn't guarding you just use fire and he will send a dark Firaga back at you which you can block. It does damage to him and will cause him to perform a sliding dash which you can also block.

This will leave him temporarily open but after 3 dark Firaga rebounds he goes back to guarding to watch out.

I used to just bait out his sliding dash before I knew the fire trick. Then he initiates his second phase which just adds dark atks to his normal combos. Now this will take getting used to because he will start adding an energy blade to his sliding dash but blocking this causes him damage and leaves him open so I only reccommend blocking him for now. Between his Darkness phases you have a chance to get him to do one darkness rebound before he goes back to using he charges up again. You can do 3 hits max while he charges then he immediately do an energy blade and sliding dash which you can block.

I beat him with the Strike Raid Strar. I bet you can guess what that is.

The finisher attack he uses in his second phase DM is dodged by just a matter of rolling around(may still get hit). Then comes his final phase. Now in this phase he adds a new finisher which can be dodged by Gliding around while he is teleporting around the place, landing as he goes up to perform the final strike and then gliding again. Make sure you have at least one elixir because the fight becomes a matter of Strike Raiding him to death

Oh yeah

Spam Strike Raid.

I just spam his final phase with strike raid
