Mission walkthrough

Before beginning this mission, speaking to either Zexion or Marluxia in The Grey Area will result in attaining two items. Zexion gives you a Panacea, while Marluxia hands you an Ether.

Your mission will begin in Twilight Town's Station Plaza. Simply walk toward the next area to encounter your first Watcher. These Heartless will look down before attacking with their laser, so be sure to avoid it. If Roxas is hit by the laser, he may be inflicted with the Shoe-glue status, in which he cannot jump or perform aerial combos. This will make defeating Watchers difficult. They can be taken out with direct combat, or a simple Fire spell will quickly finish them off. Defeat the first Watcher and proceed to the Station Heights. You will find an additional two Watchers toward this area's southern exit. Proceed to the Sandlot.

Once in the Sandlot, you will be ambushed by a team of four Watchers. Use your Fire magic to thin out the group, then go in for close combat to defeat the remainder. Be cautious if you decide to use a Limit Break, as you are still vulnerable to attacks from other enemies.

Once the four Watchers are defeated, the Mission Gauge will be full and the mission complete. Be sure to grab the Iron and Potion that are by the two benches in the Sandlot. Return to the Station Plaza to RTC.

Ignore absolutely every enemy that is not a Watcher. To eliminate a Watcher quickly, use a Fire or Thunder spell. Save some magic for the four Watchers in the Sandlot, then quickly return to the Station Plaza, ignoring all enemies along the way back.
