So upon revisiting this video, I noticed I really didn't go in depth about setting up for this RNG Manipulation video. I also tried to shorten the time of the video through TH-cam's editor, but it caused the video and Audio to become desynchronized. So I'm currently planning to remake this video to better explain how to obtain the Random Joker. I'm currently busy doing IRL things away from home, but when I do come back, this will be one of things I will do. It will also give me an excuse to learn video editing (as if you couldn't tell, I did this video in one continuous take which was incredibly hard to even do given my living conditions at the time). Anyway, I look forward redoing this video. When it's available, I will update the description and this comment to hold the link. Thank you for your time, and I hope you're looking forward to the updated version of this video!
THANK YOU! For anyone else playing on the best release (Steam release), don’t be discouraged if you keep getting lvl 2 Calm Bounty cards. After like my 6th attempt, I got a Random Joker.
Unfortunately, as of this moment, this is the only method to manipulate RNG in this game, and there aren't any ways you can easily do it for Riku. But that's not to say it doesn't exist. As I tried studying for ways to get the Random Joker for Riku back in the day, I found out that technically speaking, RNG Manipulation is possible in Riku's story, but it would be much harder to even do in general. The reason for this is because attacking with physical cards just isn't as consistent as using magic. Things like 1 physical hit hitting 2 enemies gives different RNG than 1 physical hit hitting 3, or 2 physical hit hitting 1 enemy each. Plus, it is harder to kill the entire spawn of enemies before they wake up from a sleeping darkness, and once they do, RNG can change if they do an attack or not, or even just move a muscle. So in short, it's theoretically possible, but extremely more difficult, and as of this moment, no one has found a way to manipulate the game's RNG to make the Random Joker card spawn in Riku's story. So playing the game normally currently yields better results for getting the Random Joker. Believe me when I say I did my research to get a Random Joker map card for Riku on Proud Mode. And I've seen people struggle to get it. It's all reliant on the game's RNG. However I luckily found it as I was completing Riku's story with a method I found in a comment in GameFAQs. The way I did it was every floor, I filled out the entire floor map while avoiding enemies then ran back to said floor's entrance and saved the game there. I then reset and reloaded the save to reset the game's RNG, then proceeded to clear out each room. Once I cleared a room of heartless, if I haven't got the Random Joker by then, I went back to the entrance, saved, reset and reloaded then head over the the next room after and clear out the heartless in there. It's a lot of rinsing and repeating. But within 2-3 hrs I managed to get it. And then funnily enough, I got at least 1 addition one for the next 6 or 7 floors through regular gameplay afterwards. Regardless I hope this helps you out and wish you the best of luck.
@@MadrigalNeXus tysm man! I’ve been trying to 100% every KH game and Riku mode has given me a lot of trouble, but I’ll be sure to try your strategy, and thanks again for the Info!!!
Are random jokers only used to fill the key slots? Do they make the rooms special or?? And is there like a specific place to use it that would make things easier to open?
The Random Joker map card can fulfill any door criteria (minus the golden keycards to unlock Story Rooms). It's effect is much like a blue Mingling Worlds map card, where it will synthesize a room randomly selected from ALL room types. The room may reflect a known map card, whether or not one is in stock, or even a map card not yet obtained. If anything, I would recommend using Random Joker map cards to fulfill the high criteria of certain Story Doors in Sora's story. Heres a link to all the Story Doors and their criteria for them on each floor. I'll leave it up to you to decide when you'll use them if you choose to do so. khspeedruns.fandom.com/wiki/KH_Re:CoM_Sora%27s_Story_Door_Requirements
Unfortunately, because Riku's card deck is completely randomized every floor he's on and there's no way to edit Riku's deck at all for his story, this method will not work at all for him, no matter what difficulty you are on.

@@MadrigalNeXus Oddly enough I guess the drop rates are not that bad maybe they are higher on proud because it dropped for me about 5 minutes after making this comment I guess I let the internet scare me everyone was saying it was an almost impossible drop Now all I need to do is max out sora/riku and my 6th KH platinum trophy is mine
@@herculejoestar5809 don't get me wrong. It is harder to get on Riku's story, but believe it or not, after trying for my first Random Joker for Riku, I got like 7 other Random Jokers just through playing the game normally. I'm not sure whether I was just lucky or something. But maybe someday, someone will find a way to get the Random Joker easily in Riku's story on Proud Mode.

Finally now I can get past those castle oblivion requirements without having a headache
This absolutely works 100%. Make sure you don't dodge roll or Jump because it does mess with the RNG. Also it HAS to be the sleeping room.
It worked on the first try, i wasnt getting any for the whole playthrough. Thank you so much!
I never knew that! This will help me get all cards
thank you. I will be sure to use this
Thank you for the video. I didn't have the warp sleight unlocked lmao.
Well I hope you were able to get it now that you realize you didn't have the sleight lol
A true legend
Does this work on Riku mode?
Ik you can’t chose your cards on Riku mode but is there any other way to manipulate RNG like this?

I followed the guide, but instead of a random joker, i get a level 2 calm bounty card every time. :(
Take that back, tried it one more time and got it xD
