Strategy

Attacks
  • Charge Attack: Runs at Sora before tripping and throwing its lance a short distance.
  • Spin Attack: Raises its lance before spinning in a frenzy, leaving it dizzy afterwards.
  • Lance Frenzy: Signature move. When low on health, the lance escapes its grasp for a short time. Once caught, the lance lifts the Soldier into the air and flies about, damaging anyone in within its range.

The Lance Soldier is not too difficult to defeat, but its attacks are quick and can sometimes be hard to defend against. In addition, it has an attack that renders it invulnerable to magic and most normal attacks, while it zips around the area at high speed. When it utilizes this move, it can become quite a threat. The best technique is to simply use the reaction command, Lance Tug. If timed quickly enough, Sora can get away with little or no damage and slice out the majority of the enemy's health bar. If the Heartless does not use this attack, Blizzard magic can be an efficient way to take the enemy out, provided Sora has enough MP reserved.
