It is important to be able to climb on top of Cerberus's back, in order to avoid his Miasma of Darkness and Firaga Ball attacks. Alternatively, one may use [[Dodge Roll]] to avoid Cerberus's Miasma of Darkness attack, or even deft running. Going under Cerberus when he uses Miasma of Darkness will not work. Lock on to one of the outside heads and remain close to Cerberus's side. | It is important to be able to climb on top of Cerberus's back, in order to avoid his Miasma of Darkness and Firaga Ball attacks.

The [[Star Seeker]] Keyblade is recommended, as its aerial boost will be helpful while performing aerial combos. Cerberus often swivels around leaving Sora nothing but his back, preventing damage. Just lock onto a head and start using combos, and Bushido whenever possible. If one wishes to use more magic, use Thunder on one head until Sora has almost no MP left, then use Bushido. | The [[Star Seeker]] Keyblade is recommended, as its aerial boost will be helpful while performing aerial combos.

Use the Reaction Commands when caught between by the three heads to deal major damage. If Sora's HP gets low, stick to the edges and use Quick Run to avoid Cerberus when he jumps over to Sora. Defeating Cerberus will earn Auron +40 HP, and Sora the [[Dodge Slash]] ability ([[Counterguard]] in ''Final Mix''). | Use the Reaction Commands when caught between by the three heads to deal major damage.
