Wisdom Form is a Drive Form specializing in magical attacks which appears in Kingdom Hearts II. It uses Donald Duck and consumes three of Sora's Drive Bars. It represents Sora's magic and is obtained along with the Monochrome Keyblade when Sora clears Timeless River. Its emblem is a blue flame.

Appearance

Wisdom Form turns Sora's clothing blue and black, with an emblem, resembling blue flames, on the ends of his pants and sleeves. Sora wields only one Keyblade in this form. While in Wisdom Form, specks of light float around Sora's legs. There is also a blue magical mist surrounding Sora's feet that turns into two light blue wisps, one rising from each foot, when Sora slides across landscape. Sora's ability to slide across the ground covers his entire body with him sliding across the ground on his back during some combos. The only time Sora actually stands is when he lands from a jump. These wisps circle Sora in a manner similar to a double helix when Sora is stationary. Sora moves acrobatically in this form, spinning the Keyblade idly behind his back when not moving, and flipping around when shooting magic bullets. He also tosses the Keyblade into the air when he jumps, catching it when he reaches his height. The official artwork shows Sora's sleeves with the blue flames emblems, but in-game the sleeves have the Master Form's saltire emblem. Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix uses the correct emblem.

Mechanics

Wisdom Form is unlocked after completing Timeless River and is activated normally. Wisdom Form gains experience for every Heartless defeated and greatly strengthens Sora's magical ability.

In Wisdom Form, Sora begins gliding on the ground instead of walking. Also, the 'Attack' command is changed to 'Shoot'. This command makes the Keyblade launch shots that have limited homing properties.

Wisdom Form is based on magical abilities. In this form, the player can do quick magic combos with powerful magic combo finishes. It also increases magic strength. The 'Shoot' command is less powerful than the 'Attack' and 'Magic' commands, so, it is better to use during MP charge, when magic isn't usable. Although, Wisdom Form gives Sora the MP Hastega ability what makes this period much shorter. Also, with the Mobile Action ability and the use of long ranged attacks, this form is the better for the hit & run strategy. So if you need the most out of your magic or just need some medium range attacks, use Wisdom Form.

Strategy

Wisdom Form is very proficient at magic, and is useful against enemies that are hard to defeat at close range, such as the Hot Rod. While in Wisdom Form, Sora glides along the ground rather than running, and becomes able to perform commands while moving. His casting is sped up and all his magic finishers increase in power as well. Always be prepared to cast Cure, as Donald is unable to help in this manner. The Fatal Crest should be equipped when using Wisdom Form in combat, as it boosts Magic, and its Berserk Charge allows Sora to keep firing Wisdom Shot while his MP is depleted.

Since Wisdom Form levels by defeating Heartless, a good place to train it is the Doors to the Past in Timeless River, a cycle of rooms filled with weak Heartless that allow Sora to go from room to room, quickly respawning the Heartless within, while also having easy access to the World Exit for refilling the Drive Gauge and a Save Point for refilling the MP Gauge. Most Heartless here can be defeated in a few strikes of Thunder or a few Wisdom Shots, so the best Keyblade to equip is the Oathkeeper for its Form Boost ability. Another great place to train is the city portion of the World That Never Was. Shadows appear in large numbers and are very weak, also there is a save point at the entrance of the Castle to exit the world to refill the drive gauge.
