Strategy
Begin the battle by locking on and backing away. Hayner's attacks consist of two-hit combo followed by a short thrust. Both leave him wide open for a counterattack. Keep a safe distance and don't stop moving. Wait for Hayner to make the first move. Get a feel for the attack speed, and move in before he has a chance to recover. The best tactic for getting all of Hayner's orbs is to apply pressure. Lead him toward a corner, and race around him to reverse positions. Continue the assault until Hayner is nearly out of orbs, then retreat to collect any that bounce away.
