The Zip Slasher is indeed powerful, as it has great amounts of HP and high damaging potential. It is immune to all forms of magic (although upgraded [[Blizzard]] magic can still freeze it for a short time allowing you to  eliminate 2 or 3 bars of health if you have a decent weapon equipped. The best time to blizzard him is right before the second part of his attack, where he lunges both blades at you). physical attacks with your weapon are your only way to damage the Zip Slasher. Also only use Limit Breaks when it is low on HP or on it's last HP bar, as it can still attack with its deadly combo.. It does not hesitate to attack, immediately lunging at Roxas. This tactic is easily predicted, as the Heartless's blades glow green, and can be avoided with careful timing of the [[Guard]] or [[Dodge Roll]] abilities. The Zip Slasher's technique is to do a powerful spinning attack, then lunge toward Roxas with its powerful sword-like arms. blocking this attack will not stun the zip slasher unlike its larger variations, but the blizzard block ability will freeze it easily. It should also be noted that the best time to attack this Heartless is when it pauses after each attack, which is about enough time for two combos. Despite its great amounts of health (a grand total of 11 HP Bars), the Zip Slasher can be defeated easily when the player revisits the mission. Also, the Zip Slasher will heal a little bit whenever it lands its powerful water-based combo, which can make this a tiresome battle.
