==Strategy== | |||
The Lone Runner can be found exclusively in the Ballroom in the [[Castle of Dreams]], once Terra, Ventus or Aqua have completed their exploration of that world. There are many Lone Runners that will appear at will, and many of these will run as far away as possible from the player character. | |||
Start by using a Shotlock with an especially high lock-on count -- [[Meteor Shower]] is very, ''very'' good for this purpose. Fully leveled up, a player character can get three consecutive uses of the Meteor Shower command before depleting his/her Focus gauge. Once the Focus gauge is depleted, go for a variety of attacks to boost the gauge up: | |||
*[[Firaga]] and [[Triple Firaga]] are homing spells, and will be very useful to take out Lone Runners from a distance. | |||
*[[Sonic Blade]] is useful, but a bit of a wildcard. It can be triggered seven times by successfully pressing {{Button|triangle}}, and it can potentially take out Lone Runners in the player's way -- but the player runs the risk of not coming into contact with any Lone Runners, if they get too far away during the course of this attack. | |||
*[[Thundaga]] has a wide radius, and if the player is at a sufficiently high level, this spell can take out many Lone Runners at once. However, again, it is a bit of a wildcard, especially when Lone Runners manage to get out of the spell radius immediately before it is used. | |||
*When playing as Terra, [[Meteor]] is as close to a screen nuke as anyone can get. | |||
When the player's Focus gauge has refilled, use Meteor Shower again. | |||
Taking out 60 or more Lone Runners is enough for any player character to gain the Illusion-L command and/or a three-star rank. | |||
