Exodaze 491 Posted March 19, 2013 Kingdom Hearts Final Mix Whether you like it or not, the game will need to be played 3x at least, since there's a trophy for every difficulty and they do not freaking stack! I already started playing the game since it came out and studied some of the trophies, Here's how I approached them: Started on Proud mode <- this is going to be my main save file, (I did picked +staff -shield and picked 'Night' so I would level slower for the first lv 50 and a little bit faster on lv 50 onwards--for extra challenge, nope nope not going to try lv 0 just yet), I try not to do continues so i can get the Undefeated trophy early, besides you can skip scenes here unlike the original, also you can do soft reset by pushing (Select+Start+L1+L2+R1+R2 all together for soft reset) the rest of my trophy will come from the main save file except the following: Unchanging Armor - Clear the game without changing your equipment. Speedster - Reach The End of the World in less than 15 hours. I would think these two are bothersome I would suggest them to be completed on beginner mode unless you want to be hardcore and finish them off on proud mode, goodluck! lol but since you need to get 3 playthroughs might as well get them with less work-beginner mode, scenes are skippable speedster wouldn't be a big problem, 15 hrs is sure plenty of time, While other trophies are pretty much self-explanatory and can be done using your main save file, in my case, Proud Mode one, I would update this as soon as i get more info, keep trophy questions here as much as possible, will also add ReChain, in few weeks! 1 DChiuch reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uh, if you choose Night, you level slower for Level 1-40 and level up faster for the higher levels, 40-100. So you get more out of Night. since once the enemies get strong enough, it gets so much easier to level up the low levels, and the levels that require the most EXP become easier to level up. Also, i think even if you reset the game, for KHFM if you die once, you can never get the trophy. It says not to get a game over, not to never use continues. Only Re:Chain says not to use continues, but you can use Load game. But in KHFM, YOU CAN NEVER DIE. This means, no problem for the first battles in DI and the battles at Olympus(Except for the first time you fight Cerberus) as you lose, but you don't get a gameover, so those are the safest places to grind for EXP.

Sora96 17,256 Posted March 19, 2013 I'll be doing Final Mix mode as my main save file where I will complete the game 100%. Then I will complete the game on Final Mix: Proud mode to get that trophy and then I'll speed through it on Final Mix: Beginner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weiss 8,279 Posted March 19, 2013 Pretty good guide. I was going for something similar to this surprisingly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exodaze 491 Posted March 19, 2013 (edited) the Undefeated trophy states Clear the game without using the "Continue" option, I never used Continue option, it does not specifically says you can't die, it;s saying you can't use continue option which means you can either soft rest or load game whenever you die.

Tetsujin 43 Posted March 19, 2013 besides you can skip scenes here unlike the original I thought that was only if you already watched them once in a playthrough? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
