Ragnarok

Ragnarok (ラグナロク) is a special technique that appears in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Ragnarok is a technique that lets the user fire a cluster of energy bullets from the tip of their Keyblade.

Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, Ragnarok is a Special Ability. When close to an airborne enemy, selecting the Ragnarok command will cause Sora to automatically jump up to the enemy and deliver a aerial attack combo, after which he will hover while charging energy. Unlike Sonic Blade or Ars Arcanum, it requires no timing to execute the finisher, Burst; however, the longer Sora charges before using Burst, the more projectile are fired and the heavier the damage, with the optimal time being immediately after the Keyblade releases a circular burst of light. The projectiles home in on enemies after being fired, while Sora can move freely. It costs 4 AP to equip and 3 MP to use.

In Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Ragnarok is an Attack Sleight. Pressing fires the projectiles sooner, but fewer are fired. The rays do not home in on enemies.

In Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, Ragnarok is an Attack Sleight. Pressing fires the projectiles sooner, but fewer are fired. The rays home in on enemies.

In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Ragnarok is an Action Ability available while using Limit Form from the Limit menu by pressing. Using Ragnarok will trigger an aerial attack combo, followed by Sora charging energy while in the air. Selecting one of the Reaction Commands that appear, Shoot, Impact, or Giga Impact, will fire the charged projectiles. Waiting until Giga Impact appears before pressing will fire the most rays. The projectiles home in on enemies.

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Ragnarok is Sora's Limit Break. The Final Limit version fires larger, faster shots that lose their homing ability but are conjoined together into a drilling fashion, piercing through enemy guards. For both, allowing it to charge before pressing will fire a larger number of projectiles.

In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Ragnarok is a Shotlock that has a maximum level of 4 and max lock of 16. Once the attack has begun, the player can perform extra attacks by pressing at the right time to fire additional projectiles.

Ragnarok is considered a Nil-based attack in this game, it ignores defense completely.

Etymology
Ragnarök is an event in Norse mythology that is similar to the Apocalypse. It is an event that is set off by the death of the god Balder, which was orchestrated by Loki. The Ragnarok was a final clash of all the major entities of Norse mythology. This caused all of the human spirits up in Valhalla to come down for the final battle. This bloody encounter ebbs with the destruction of the universe and Balder along with a little handful of entities that are put in the bodies of children and only contain memories of the world before Ragnarok. Those entities would become mortal. Ragnarok is also a reoccurring Summon and weapon that appears in various games in the Final Fantasy series. It also appears as an airship and a legendary beast.
