Before I read your message and I was watching this, I was thinking to myself that Siax says it's over. Sora says it's over. I think I believe Sora more.
Just wanna say that your no damage vids actually help me do some of these data battles no damage on crit so thanks for showing us some openings to all of these data battles. currently trying to do xion. Nice vid as always!
I dont know how you do it, but this is just amazing. Trying to copy you (and mostly failing at it) is still helping me make great progress through the data org so thank you!
Recently got back into Kingdom Hearts after not really knowing what to do back in 2002 when I first got KH1 as a kid. Binged it all once everything came to Xbox in June. You and Pedro really help with finding strategies. I didn't know you could block some of those Berserk attacks! Going to give it a go later. Thanks for the content!
3 things I learned from fightimg Siax. 1.) Nano Gear is your friend. 2.)Blizzard at close range is key. 3.) Learn timing of blocking and dodging and knowing how to use them.
Not sure if you already know this, but there's an opening during saix's multiple dash attacks, example here 1:19 - 1:27 . There, you can actually punish him by doing Dodge + Guard + Counter . Anyway, nice video !
@@WillJV2 With these restrictions you can also avoid Saix DM for first time, it has hp checker if he uses it or not, After he charges Blue cauge fully, 8,5 hp bars or more depleted Saix will use DM, less and will not. You can skip his moves also when yellow bar is depleting by extending your combo with timed weak attack. So in theory you can do this battle with Saix using DM only once and finishing it around just a bit over 5mins.
Oh god. He used his DM three times in one fight lmao. I didn't think that was possible in a boss fight unless you don't punish enough openings and let it drag out too long, which you didn't do.
It's quite fascinating to see how well you can play these data and super bosses when you know thier attack patterns, how to aviod them, and opportunities to attack to a T. I say the only hard part is fighting against multiple heartless or bosses cause its hard to predict when multiple things come at you at the same time
I kinda feel obligated to tell you this, which you probably know already, but at 0:54 (after he throws his claymors at you and telports to you) you can block both of his follow up attacks. I noticed you dodged one and blocked the other.
What is the difference between this and normal Saix on critical other than having no allies? He seems to have the exact same attacks as his regular fight while functioning the exact same way. Damage output from my experience is also comparable (meaning 2 hits equals death).
His patterns are mixed up quite differently, as well as the openings. The moves are also a little different, and like the other fights, get a bit harder in the last phase. It’s similar to every other data fight in the sense that theyre more fleshed out versions of the main story fights.
@@Typebeatfrfr you can cancel it now thanks to the latest patch. And i mention it cuz other great kh players are using it now in there combos with pro codes because it might just be good damage.
i beat this guy already and now im trying to beat him again with pro codes but its hella hard man, i want to have at least two codes off but i dunno which would help most, do you have any recommendations?
i know i'm late and u prob figured it out but you have to press the circle button right when it appears and time it correctly in order to get that attack to work
No way I could ever no damage this boss when I way too much troublein a normalData fightwith him, but men your good. I resorted to counter shielding him in normal fight
I really dont know how you can air step to him when he throws his axes at you, get a hit, air dodge away and then go back for a combo. Every time I do it, I get to him but my attacks dont land. His axes hit me and Im done.
If I can't get the timing, you could just dodge the axes and not care about hitting him. He has a couple other vulnerable points, so you don't need to hit him there.
Can anyone help me with the stupid DM? I've tried gliding and get killed by a shockwave. But I can hardly keep track of Saix AND the claymores on the ground. Anyone? Please? :( the rest of the fight is freaking perfect.
After he gets knocked out of his second berserk, does he mutter "Axel....?" If he does, that's an amazing bit of detail that they put in there, too bad it was never in the original.
@@jakegibbs6003 that's too bad, there's still small nuances throughout the other boss fights that add that extra little touch to it. Too bad they needed dlc to bring out some of the originality
I'm having a bitch of a time trying to get the risk dodge prompt during the berserk. Anyone have any tips? I've managed to get it accidentally a couple times.
Yes, HP slip makes the margin for error against bosses very small. Combine that with no cure and no battles items and it makes making mistakes basically a death sentence.
Okay, is there an official name for Saix's weapon? I see some people call it a sword, some people call it an axe, some call it a claymore, I saw one guy calling it a hammer. I always thought in was a big club, wtf is it?
A bit late but... If you look at the base weapon (the actual metal part) it actually resembles a spear. The blue spikes on the outside make it more akin to a battleaxe. As others have said it’s apparently officially a claymore (long 2handed sword) which can be simplified as a sword.
The actual answer to this question is that based on the Final Fantasy job classes each original Organization member is based off of, the Berserker job class in FF wields axes. However there was already an Organization member introduced prior to Saïx who used an axe (Lexaeus), therefore Saïx was given a transforming blade-type weapon instead. Canonically, Saïx’s weapon type is called a claymore. I personally like to think of his claymore as being something kind of akin to a Charge Blade or Switch Axe from Monster Hunter. It’s got both a “sword” mode and an “axe” mode going on.
Siax: It's over
Sora: It's over!
It was over the moment will got a controller that was charged
Before I read your message and I was watching this, I was thinking to myself that Siax says it's over. Sora says it's over. I think I believe Sora more.
My favorite is when Axel snapped his finger and said, “Good bye”

Saix: "Different game, same fate.."
Will: *Bet*
For everyone who's not Will
Saix: Different game, different fate
Saix went from one of the easiest boss fights in II and III to one of the hardest lol
When he said “THE MOON SHINES DOWN” i felt that
0:17 Saix pressing triangle on Sora
Saix : you must take damage!
Will : no you must take damage
It's amazing how good people can be at these fights. I'm 3/4 through the organization, but Saix's last phase keeps getting me

Doesn’t the 3rd one apply to every data boss though😅
Since Saix eated a lot of iron in this fight I guess the ice cream he is going to eat after the fight to cool down will taste really salty.
Your videos are a great guide... The only thing that i couldn't dodge was his DM. Now i can. Thank you WillJV2!
I really REALLY hope the next game uses reaction commands ala KH2 again. I feel they might add them, as the dlc added some proto-reaction commands
Ironic, I was watching the 358 days Saix fight a few minutes before you posted this.

I did not know that. Gonna re do pretty much all of them with pro codes again since I've found a lot of new stuff

Yeah I've done it before with only DM. Will do it again with the new punish and 1 DM now

actually if you dodge those 5 claymore spinning attack and stand still，you can block into a risk dodge to punish him

That Desperation Move 😭😭😭😭 How can I handle that shit
do the no damage remind bosses with non-sora characters.
It’s crazy how a full combo isn’t a bar down.
Thank you for not using triple rush. Idk if its actually better or worse but it makes the combo look more ugly lol.
Alan Buchholz its bad becuz u cant cancel it
@@Typebeatfrfr you can cancel it now thanks to the latest patch. And i mention it cuz other great kh players are using it now in there combos with pro codes because it might just be good damage.
don't think it's worth it just because it makes the combo feel much worse
@@WillJV2 i agree so much lol. it feels so slow and its just ugly to look at when the new combos look so smooth and quick.
Why use triple rush. If you want less revenge value just use speed slash. It's way better.
i beat this guy already and now im trying to beat him again with pro codes but its hella hard man, i want to have at least two codes off but i dunno which would help most, do you have any recommendations?
Saïx: Mooooooooon!
How do you consistently get the rising spiral after the airstep hit? Every time I hit him and press circle, nothing happens (yes I have it equipped)
i know i'm late and u prob figured it out but you have to press the circle button right when it appears and time it correctly in order to get that attack to work

It's hard for me to tell but did they fix dmg scaling or do we still do chip dmg?
You can Risk dodge the swings after rolling through the hammers instead of using the shotlock airstep to get slightly more Damage
In my LVL 99 run I killed him in one cycle lol
Is DM Skip possible with PRO Codes on at Lv 1?
please break into my house and beat this guy for me, so many tries lowest i got him was 3 health bars left 😭
Can anyone help me with the stupid DM?
I've tried gliding and get killed by a shockwave. But I can hardly keep track of Saix AND the claymores on the ground.
Anyone? Please? :( the rest of the fight is freaking perfect.

no he's saying "is that all?"

How do i get the better air slide in combat. Is that only available on the ps4 copies
Is there some bug going on with your HP or am I missing something? I didn't see you take any damage O.o
Pro Code: HP Slip. The player loses health until it reaches critical levels.
@@ironstark917 dat scareh mayng.
Yes, HP slip makes the margin for error against bosses very small. Combine that with no cure and no battles items and it makes making mistakes basically a death sentence.
I am simply never fighting saix with pro codes on. There are other fights I can do for the achievement
Think it's possible to do a no lightstep run?
I don't think so, these fight were designed to make you master block, dodge roll, and lightstep in order to keep up.
Could you do a full Remind Lv 1 No Damage?
Okay, is there an official name for Saix's weapon? I see some people call it a sword, some people call it an axe, some call it a claymore, I saw one guy calling it a hammer. I always thought in was a big club, wtf is it?
Meh... it'll be a keyblade eventually...
I think it's a claymore. That's what they're called in KH2 FM anyway. I'm pretty sure.
In 358, they're referred to as claymores. Claymores are supposed to be a type of longsword, and Lunatic doesn't fit that description at all...
A bit late but...

My older brother has ptsd from him
How come his health is still going down?
One of the pro code will slowly drain your health
@@panduvandal i'm also now noticing the magic bar drain as well (i skimmed it at first)
@@jamilzayas5808yep, health drain is active before the bleep and MP drain is active until 1 MP remains.
I am impressed and disgusted at the same time, congrats for that amazing fight
How exactly are you pulling off the reversal
Risk Dodge.
Can anyone game share kingdom hearts 3 i have other games to share the latest games
That DM scared the fuck out of me
