Just those 2 and i will platinum KH2

 

Thank you all

Ok these are the two that gave me tons of trouble as well. Xemnas is by far much easier than Luxord.

 

     Xemnas is just a standard battle in two parts. For his first form I find that jumping and using aerial combos on him helps avoid his hand sabers. At one point he has an attack that is inescapable and he just hits you over and over again with his sabers. You can tell this is coming when the background gets slightly darker. Just let him hit you and use a hi potion or cure.

     His second form is a lot harder. the first problem stems from a glitch in the game. When he throws you into the air half the time the reversal reaction command doesn't appear for whatever reason. To compensate for this most people use Riku's limit Final Session as you are invulnerable while you are using it. The majority of the battle is the same as it is in story mode version. Avoid the two large orbs of energy by dodge rolling or using quick run and if you time it right you can bypass them and get close to Xemnas. If health gets low or you need magic, Limit form is always a good way to go. Using Sonic Blade can help in a tight situation and can get some good damage in. But revert if no damage is being done cause at least you will have a full magic bar. The major problem I had was when Sora gets captured and you have to use Riku. He does this at least once during the battle and sometimes multiple times. If Riku takes four or five hits from the Xemnas clone it's over. Concentrating and using an attack or two on the clone either with the keyblade (preferred) or Dark Aura can help. Don't use Riku's shield as I can never figure out the timing. Just try your best to avoid the clone and get to Xemnas asap. You should be able to read when you can attack the clone after a few attempts. Other than that it's just the standard Xemnas battle.

 

     Luxord is the most annoying of the data Organization battles. The best way to play is to have reflect in the shortcut menu. Whenever he says "A challenge is it?" Use reflect over and over instead of accepting his game. this will prevent you from being damaged and from having your time meter affected. Just bash him with the keyblade and ignore his cards all together. The only games of his you are required to play are the one where he turns into a card and says "Look Closely" This one's easy. The second one however will make or break the battle. This is his desperation move. He only uses it toward the end of the battle and will continue to use it until the battle ends. He will summon very large cards to surround Sora and will say "Do you know the rules?" At this point all of the options in the command bar alternate between X and O. You need to select each command on an O. BUT every time you get one right the rest switch faster and faster making it very hard. Some people recommend the pause method. After the first or second O pause the game. if the next icon you need displays an X select it immediately after exiting the pause menu because chances are it will change to an O the second you unpause it. But the pause method does not always guarantee success.

     If you lose his desperation move you will notice a VERY LARGE portion of Time in your meter will transfer to his. DO NOT PANIC. He will continue to use his desperation move over and over at this point and realistically you can play the game at least 3-4 times per battle before you run out of time in your meter. It does not matter how little or how much time you have left in the time meter because if you beat his desperation game all of the time in his meter will disappear and then you can finish him off with a combo.

 

     In the end I beat Luxord's desperation game by luck lol. I hope all of this information helps. Good Luck!

Okay, here's what you're going to do.

 

For Luxord, keep in mind that the battle is time based, so all you have to do is make sure you have more time than Luxord, and you'll pretty much be set for the rest of the battle.  You can avoid the card games that he attempts to do on you, the only thing you have to worry about is the final desperation move he makes in which you are drawn into an inescapable card game where you have to get all circles or all x's, if I'm not mistaken.  A key way for you to defeat Luxord is by launching him into the air and using Horizontal Slash relentlessly for as long as you can.  (For you to be able to use Horizontal Slash relentlessly, you have to have your MP gauge charging and you have to have the Berserk ability equipped.  Also, if you don't know the Horizontal Slash attack, it's the one where you press the square button.)  So yeah, do all that and parry his attacks and destroy the cards that float around during the battle, and you'll have won.

 

As for Xemnas, the first time you fight him is practically easy.  All you have to do is keep a close eye on his movements so you can be able to parry his attacks and then chip away at his life.  Keep in mind that you can use Limit Form, for it'll save you in a lot of tight spots, and it has great attack power.  Basically, the first fight is cakewalk.  The second, however, can catch you off guard if you aren't concentrated.  Basically, just be sure to stock up on Ethers, Elixirs or any kind of MP restoring item you have, and when the battle begins, just chip away at his life.  When he grabs you and launches you, use the Session Limit so you can be able to escape from the attack and deal some damage yourself. (It's good if you have Auto Limit equipped to Riku.)  Remember that you can also use Limit Form here to save you from tight spots, and well, when Xemnas attempts to steal away Sora's HP and you use Riku, just dodge the other Xemnas' attacks as you would do in the normal story fight, and free Sora as fast as you can.  Then, when the bullet shower commences, simply block and then finish him off, and you're golden!  Or in this case, Platinum!

 

So yeah, good luck to you!  I'm sure you'll gain the Platinum Trophy!  You're so close!  Give it all you've got!

I GOT XEMNAS I GOT XEMNAS!!!!!!! all i need is that pompous bastard of a man

but i forgot to finish my synthesis list DAMN IT!!!!!!!

Luxord is easy, I think you problem is his deviation move, just get all o when you see x press x because you will hesitate clicking x on o so when you see x press X and you should be able to get it.

I think you mean Desperation Move, not Deviation.
