Donald isn't useless.

[Klonoa the Dream Traveler 678]

I been hearing that Donald is the useless partner in Kingdom Hearts. But he's isn't useless. Donald might be the most useful character in Kingdom Hearts. He helped me by taking down two of Sephiroth health bars in KH2. He even healed Sora health at times where I couldn't use cure. (During Lingering Will battle.) So, I don't know how Donald is useless to you. I find him very useful. (So useful that I hack my game to have two Donalds.) Maybe you're not using him properly.

(Here's Donald true potential if you use him correctly.)

They die so easily tho :I. Its like their defense is 0 at lvl 99

[Nick Sideris 1,551]

He is useless if he uses Cure when you don't actually need it .

He wastes all your Elixirs on Goofy who is at full HP while you're dying.

I think people focus so much on customising Sora that they forget that there are two other characters that can be made stronger.

You're supposed to customise the way Donald uses cure and potions.

Oh really ?! I didn't know that !

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway , even if you do customise how often they use their abilities and potions , they  still waste everything at the smallest chance they get .

He is useless because he dies in one hit during boss fights and he wastes your items on Goofy.

But, he can sometimes be really useful. After all, it's thanks to him that I defeated Lingering Will.

[Kello 310]

While playing Critical Mode with Level 1, Donald (and Goofy) started to feel extremely important.

[JTD95 1,108]

I always keep Donald in the party and throws Goofy under the bus to make way for other tag-along characters. Donald heals me, I love that duck. Definitely not useless.

[HumbleGamer 76]

I really want to see someone hack the game where the 4 Donald's all scream "I GOT IT" and die simultaneously .

 He helped me by taking down two of Sephiroth health bars in KH2.

 

But I thought you were supposed to fight that battle alone? .-.Or did they make some changes?

[Trece the Xam ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) 3,859]

Donald's only useful thing from KHII onwards is his healing magic. However, in Chain of Memories, he's magic is very powerfull (not so much in Re: Chain of Memories), but he can heal elemental enemies and in KH1, Donald heals you, stops enemies, gives you wind defence and has got quite good ofensive spells.

I hacked the fight so I can allow Donald to aid me.

[Oshamu 52]

Honestly I thought Goofy was more useless than Donald, I mean let's not forget when Sora heals him he says "Thanks Donald!"

[Master Keeper 687]

The only usefulness I had from Donald was the trinity marks in KHI

[Nero Kunivas 3,046]

Donald? Useful? *Random Turian laugh*

 

Also, that video is Xaddgx Absol Brasse's Hacked Fight, just so others know.

[Skhyatze 165]

Donald has his uses. The special limits with him in KH2 are pretty good. and of course, he heals you. 

[BlankShell 638]

The problem is KH2 doesn't give Donald Once More and Second Chance, like it does Goofy (and I think he only gets Hyper Healing from an item?). So while Donald may have useful abilities, at higher tiers of battle he just dies immediately so there's not much he can do.

[Niko Collins 83]

I don't even give Donald items...I'm the distributor of healing items in the group. I give them what they need.

[Vexen 73]

*critically low HP**uses last bit of MP to cure self*0,5 seconds later*Donald casts curaga*Ty.But seriously, I really love Donald. He is a great character.

[Dave 5,715]

I think people just don't use Donald right, as pretentious as that sounds. Fantasia is a fantastic Limit in KH2, and so long as you toggle what balance of spells you want him to use in the menu, he'll usually do what you need him to.
