In ''Kingdom Hearts | In the ''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX]]'' version of ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]]'', EXP Zero is a [[combat ability]] exclusive to [[Proud Mode]] that costs 0 {{AP}} to equip. In addition to negating EXP gain, it also has two hidden properties. The first prevents Sora from being knocked out in one hit at full HP, and the second property is a damage multiplier that is applied during boss fights, which scales up the damage dealt from Sora's standard attacks, with his finisher having a higher scaling value. The latter property is also responsible for a programming oversight where the damage multiplier from Sora's finisher does not reset until a regular attack is performed. During this time, the multiplier is also applied to the damage dealt by [[magic]] and [[summon]]s resulting them in dealing abnormally large amounts of damage against bosses, a phenomenon unofficially referred to as "EXP Zero damage storage". Using special finishers such as [[Hurricane Blast]] does not trigger this effect. | ||
