Focus Gauge

The Focus Gauge is a gameplay element exclusive to Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Its shape resembles the Drive Gauge, and is located to the left of the character's portrait on the bottom right corner of the screen. The more focus Terra, Aqua, and Ventus have, the more amount of time they have to lock-on for their Shotlock. The gauge can be refilled by hitting enemies, much like the Drive Gauge was capable of, and using Ethers. It can also be filled with the Charge Guard command, where the gauge can be filled by blocking attacks, and the Damage Aspil ability, where the gauge can be filled by taking damage from enemy attacks.
