Strategy[]

The battle with the Chill Ripper is no easy feat. While you don't have to take care of Xigbar, who will heal and perform attacks himself, it is important to watch Roxas's HP, or he may very well end up dying. In battle, this Heartless utilizes two attacks. One is a lunging spin attack which deals heavy ice damage, the other causes pillars of ice to erupt from the ground. Both of these attacks are easily avoidable with a Dodge Roll or Glide, but you should you choose to keep your distance.

The Chill Ripper possesses a charging lunge attack, which when parried stuns the Heartless. However, striking it with Firaga while it charges will also knock it down, and it is also extremely susceptible to Firaga whilst stunned. While you should attack whenever possible, the Chill Ripper is agile, and will jump around the field to avoid you.

It is important that the player heals regularly and utilizes the Limit Break should Roxas's HP hit the "alarm zone." If this strategy is followed, then they should have no trouble dealing with this boss.
