| |
|
| |
| *'''Unlocking Boards'''<br>
| |
| A <font color=blue>new section</font> of the Stat Matrix is<br>unlocked whenever you complete a world.<br><font color=blue>Each section has its own CPU</font> you can use<br>as a starting point.

| *'''System Memory'''<br>
| |
| Each command uses up a certain amount of<br><font color=blue>system memory</font>. You cannot install a command<br>if it will cause the <font color=blue>MEMORY</font> indicator at the<br>bottom of the Touch Screen to <font color=blue>exceed 100%</font>.
| |
|
| |
| *'''CPUs''' <small>('''Unlocked: Open the Stat Matrix''')</small><br>

| |
|
| |
| ===Perform Great Feats with Cheats===
| |
| ;Cheat Tuners
| |
| Connect chips to these <font color=blue>cheats</font> and you can<br>then use them to <font color=blue>alter stats</font> or <font color=blue>rig the game<br>system</font> in your favour.
| |
|
| |
| *'''The Difficulty Cheat'''<br>
| |
| You can <font color=blue>change the game's difficulty</font> anytime<br>you want with this gadget. Beginner is the easiest,<br>Critical the hardest. Enemies drop <font color=blue>better items</font> in<br>harder modes.

| |
| ===Upgrade Commands with Conversion===
| |
| ;The Command Matrix <small>('''Unlocked: View the Command Matrix.''')</small>

| |
| *'''Installing Commands''' <small>('''Unlocked: View an empty command panel.''')</small><br>

| |
|
| |
| <small>''Page 2/2''</small>
| |
| Install new commands with a <font color=blue>[!]</font> in two adjacent<br>blue slots, and you can then <font color=blue>convert</font> them into<br>a powerful new command.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Converting Commands'''<br>
| |
| Once the two commands in adjacent blue<br>slots have absorbed as much CP as they can,<br>you should <font color=blue>convert</font> them into a single, <font color=blue>more<br>powerful command</font>.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Test-Converting Commands''' <small>('''Unlocked: Test-convert a command.''')</small><br>
| |
| If you install commands in two adjacent blue slots,<br>they will <font color=blue>temporarily transform into a new command</font><br>which appears in the red slot. This red command is<br>the one you will take into battle.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Overspec'''<br>
| |
| Usually, when you convert two commands,<br>you wind up with exactly what was shown in the<br>red slot. Sometimes, though, your new command<br>will be <font color=blue>overspec</font>: in other words, <font color=blue>more powerful</font><br>than expected.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Upgrading Commands'''<br>
| |
| The icons next to a command name indicate that<br>the command will...<br>
| |
| :<font color=blue><code>C</code></font><ref>In the game, proper symbols with boxes around the letters are used.</ref> = fill more of the clock gauge with each hit.
| |
| :<font color=blue><code>R</code></font> = reload more quickly than usual.
| |
| :<font color=blue><code>CR</code></font> = <code>C</code> + <code>R</code>

| |
|
| |
| *'''Item Commands''' <small>('''Unlocked: Obtain an item command.''')</small><br>

| <font color=blue>Item commands</font> like Potions are marked with a<br>numeral, and do not reload until after combat.<br>In the heat of battle, <font color=blue>you can only use the<br>quantity shown</font>. However, you can use them in<br><font color=blue>rapid succession</font>.
| |
|
| |
| *'''Managing the Command Deck'''<br>
| |
| Did you know you can press {{button|dsx}} to switch control to<br>the top screen? From there, you can <font color=blue>reorder</font> your<br>commands or assign one <font color=blue>shortcut command</font>.<br>(Check out <font color=blue>Controls</font> and <font color=blue>Shortcut Behaviour</font> in the<br>Config menu for more info about shortcuts.)

| <font color=blue>Potions</font> and <font color=blue>Hi-Potions</font> are your best friends.<br>They don't need to reload, and more importantly,<br>they are <font color=blue>the only deck commands that you can<br>use outside of combat</font>.

| The bug level also affects enemy strength.<br>

| |
| <br>
| |
| Depending on your lock-on target, you may need to meet different requirements to get the pink Reality Shift marker to appear. For most foes, this means <font color=magenta>dealing a certain amount of continual damage</font>.
| |
| <br>
| |

| ====Linking With Spirits====
| |
| Sora and Riku each <font color=magenta>link with spirits</font> in their unique way.
| |
| ;Linking with Spirits
| |
| Completely fill up a Spirit's <font color=magenta>Link Gauge</font>, and it will briefly lend you its power.
| |
| <br>
| |
| Sora uses <font color=magenta>Link Attacks</font> to team up with his Spirits and take on the enemy.
| |
| <br>
| |
| Riku changes <font color=magenta>Link Styles</font>, absorbing his Spirits to power up his combos for a period of time.
| |
| <br>
| |
| The Link Gauge will refill as a Spirit's attacks connect with the enemy.
| |
| <br>
| |
| To link, touch Spirit icons on the Touch Screen, or hold {{button|shoulderl}} + {{button|shoulderr}} and press either {{button|dsx}}, {{button|dsb}}, or {{button|dsa}}.
| |
| <br>
| |
| You can link with both your Spirits at once to perform a devastating <font color=magenta>Dual Link</font>.
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| <font color=#f3c503>Link with your Spirit to defeat the enemies!</font>
| |
| <br>
| |
| Fill up the Link Gauge of both Spirits in your party, and you can team up with both at once to perform a powerful <font color=magenta>Dual Link</font>.
| |
| <br>
| |
| To perform a Dual Link, <font color=magenta>touch the Spirit icon</font> on the Touch Screen. You can also hold down {{button|shoulderl}} + {{button|shoulderr}} and press {{button|dsa}}.
| |
| <br>
| |
