After the initial attack, he will run behind Sora and use either Aerial Spin Swing, Whirlwind Swing, or Continuous Swing. Watch for the Continuous Swing attack, as guarding the final dash attack causes Roxas to stagger back and stake his Keyblades in the ground in order to regain his balance, during which Sora has multiple seconds to start attacking. Guarding twice against the first portions of Continuous Swing is enough in order to prepare to block the final charge in order to properly stagger Roxas. | After the initial attack, he will run behind Sora and use either Aerial Spin Swing, Whirlwind Swing, or Continuous Swing.

Roxas may use Duel Attack every now and again, and when caught by it, a cinematic duel between Sora and Roxas begins, which is very similar to the [[Samurai]]'s Duel Stance [[Reaction Command]]. Once the duel has begun, the command menu will go blank, after which "The End" will appear in a random slot. This must be selected within the extremely stringent time limit of 0.8 seconds. If successful, Sora strikes first, sending Roxas into the air and stealing his Keyblades. If failed, Roxas cleaves downward through Sora, who takes significant damage. Roxas initiates this sequence by dashing toward Sora, and it will automatically occur if he touches him. Regardless, the duel can be avoided by repeatedly Reflecting, or by jumping and staying afloat for a few seconds with Air Dodge or Glide, after which Roxas will switch tactics. Unlike Duel Stance, Duel Attack does not technically count as a Reaction Command because Sora cannot | Roxas may use Duel Attack every now and again, and when caught by it, a cinematic duel between Sora and Roxas begins, which is very similar to the [[Samurai]]'s Duel Stance [[Reaction Command]].

The best strategy is to activate (and win) his Duel Attack whenever possible to steal the Oathkeeper and Oblivion and bombard Roxas continuously, preventing him from using his best retaliation/Revenge attacks as often as possible. As long as Sora heals when necessary, the battle can be cleared with few problems. | The best strategy is to activate (and win) his Duel Attack whenever possible to steal the Oathkeeper and Oblivion and bombard Roxas continuously, preventing him from using his best retaliation/Revenge attacks as often as possible.

However, his beams may cause a challenge to Sora to safely approach him should Sora steal his Keyblades, so it's wise to try and prevent triggering the Duel Attack sequence whenever possible for players who can't find a proper opening during that specific segment; purposely failing Duel Attack will just result in near-fatal damage being thrown Sora's way | However, his beams may cause a challenge to Sora to safely approach him should Sora steal his Keyblades, so it's wise to try and prevent triggering the Duel Attack sequence whenever possible for players who can't find a proper opening during that specific segment; purposely failing Duel Attack will just result in near-fatal damage being thrown Sora's way, as well as failing the Reversal Reaction Command for whenever Roxas steals them back. | ||
Another method is to use Limit Form and use '''Sonic Rave''' constantly; Sora will heal back the bits of damage he is dealt in between the limits, and do decent damage. '''Strike Raid''' is not advised because it puts Sora in a stationary position and has inconsistent invincibility frames; '''Infinity''' and '''Last Arcanum''', however, work wonders provided if Sora can connect onto Roxas properly, with the latter being exceptionally solid if Sora drops the extra Reaction Commands to prevent Roxas from reaching his retaliation point/Revenge Value sooner than usual (Last Arcanum only works to help bridge into another attack if the sequence stops just short of '''The End'''). | Another method is to use Limit Form and use '''Sonic Rave''' constantly; Sora will heal back the bits of damage he is dealt in between the limits, and do decent damage.
