The party has 40 seconds to defeat enough wolf heads, upon which the '''Subzero Impact''' Situation Command will become available, and will end Dark Sun upon being used. Failing to use Subzero Impact in time will result in the dark sun falling onto the party members, dealing an overwhelming amount of damage. This attack will start being used after 40% of Sköll's HP has been depleted.

Sköll may prove a difficult boss, especially at higher difficulties and at level 1, so it is recommended to have a [[Full Course Bonus]] active as well as some [[Ether]]s. [[Hero's Origin]], [[Kingdom Key]], and [[Ever After]] are good Keyblades to equip for this fight, with Hero's Origin giving great counters to Sköll's attacks with [[Counter Shield]] as well as a handy boost in strength, [[Second Form]] being very useful in taking out multiple wolf heads with [[Magnet Burst]], and Ever After being a great choice when using magic, as well as dealing a large amount of damage to both Sköll and the Wolf Heads with the [[Spectral Rays]] Shotlock.


In battle, the Sköll floats above the battlefield and moves very quickly. It attacks by charging at Sora or swiping him with its claws. It can also breathe dark fireballs which if hit or blocked will briefly cover the screen with smoke. Once it loses enough HP, it will transform into its Black Sun form. Sora has 35 seconds to defeat enough Wolf Heads and then use the Subzero Impact situation command, in which Sora and Marshmallow will work together to destroy the giant dark sphere. If they succeed, the Skoll will be stunned and vulnerable to attack, but if they fail, Sora and his party will instead be stunned.
Sköll will begin the fight with its '''Charge''' attack, which can be blocked, allowing some damage to be dealt with a reprisal as it charges by.

It is best to be conservative when attacking Sköll, as it breaks out of staggers rather quickly and gives little time to react to its attacks while in the middle of a combo, so a good strategy is to wait for it to use its '''Double Hand Scratch''' or '''Two Part Scratches attack''', then block, and then unleash a reprisal followed by a short combo. Repeating this is a good way to deal damage and build up your Situation Command gauge with physical attacks while avoiding getting caught by its Double Hand Scratch attack, which will likely result in a fatal amount of damage on higher difficulties. If it uses '''Dark Breath''', try dodging the orbs rather than blocking them, as blocks will still result in your vision being darkened. Using Shotlocks frequently is a good idea in this fight, as Wolf Heads drop focus orbs upon death.
 
Upon depleting 20% of its HP, Sköll will begin summoning Wolf Heads. A good way to deal with the Wolf Heads is to use links or magic that damage a large area, such as King's Flare, [[Thunder]], or [[Aero]]. Be sure to pick up their focus orbs, as doing so can easily fill your gauge back up to full to continue using Shotlocks which are a major source of damage in this fight.
 
After depleting 40% of its HP, prepare to deal with Sköll's '''Dark Sun''' attack, in which having MP is extremely important, as links and magic are by far your best way of quickly dealing with the Wolf Heads and obtaining the '''Subzero Impact''' Situation Command within the 40 seconds given. Like before, King's Flare, Thunder, and Aero are all good choices here, but if you're stuck without MP and Ethers, try and use Shotlocks or get a good Formchange for crowd control such as Second Form. If neither option is available, try using Flowmotion attacks, but do not stay on one target for long, as staying in one spot will likely cause you to get ganked by Wolf Heads.
 
Its '''Flame Spin''' attack also appears after Sköll loses 40% of its HP, which can easily be dodged by either performing evasive maneuvers in the opposite direction, or using block when it starts to land on you.
 
By the time it reaches its last bar of HP, you should be in the clear as a good Shotlock will finish it off.
