'''Master Eraqus''' is fought only in Terra's storyline, when the Keyblade apprentice is forced to battle his master in order to save Ventus. Master Eraqus had attempted to destroy the boy to prevent the creation of the [[χ-blade]], but Terra refused to let him hurt his friend, and submits to the darkness in order to protect Ventus. After Eraqus sheds a single tear, the two fight a climatic battle in which Terra is the victor.

==Strategy==
==Strategy==
Master Eraqus is one of the most powerful bosses fought in Terra's scenario. His attacks are mainly light-based, but he can also use fire to a degree and favors fast-paced physical attack combos, as well. Terra has access to [[Shotlock|Shotlocks]] but, not [[Dimension Link|Dimension Link]] in this battle, but his arsenal of [[Command Style|Command Styles]] is limited, as he only has access to the slow but powerful Dark Impulse. It is because of Dark Impulse's power that Shotlocks should not be needed, regardless of their availability. However, the player should not be reckless during the battle, and he or she should only follow a hit-and-run strategy.

At the start of the battle, Terra will instantly gain access to Dark Impulse. It is at this point that the player should begin hammering Eraqus with physical attacks, careful to use Slide in order to escape Master Eraqus's upward slashes, which he tends to use at close range. Eraqus may also begin to use a Sonic Blade-like attack or another basic, multi-hit combo, both attacks avoidable with the Guard and Counter Hammer combo. Counter Hammer will deal great damage to the boss, opening him up for more damage as he is knocked off his feet. The player can then run farther away from the boss as he recollects himself, dealing damage with a long-range attack such as Dark Firaga, or they can immediately close the gap between Terra and Eraqus with Chaos Rave. Beware that the farther away Terra is from the boss, the higher the chance there is of him using a desperation attack to deal heavy damage to his old apprentice.
