ReCom - Vexen Fight

[Sloppy Glizzy]

So I made it to floor 10 in ReCom in just a few hours, but now I seem to be stuck. Despite having only 9-6, cures, and a couple magic/summons for combos I have hit a wall. The primary issue is amount of damage done after the freeze. Is there some strategy I don't remember to get around this?

Red Nocturne + Fire x3 cards decimates him

you can cheese the entire game with just blizzaga and firaga

Vexen is super weak to anything fire based. I've always liked the "Raid" skills, and Fire Raid is my go-to for him. Mainly because it can go through his shield and hit him from behind as well.

If you haven't already, you can also get a Key to Rewards and revisit the Traverse Town floor. I believe that's where you get your first copy of the Lionheart Keyblade, which aside from doing good damage for it's cost is also fire-element. Once you have the first copy, it shows up in shops as normal, generally in the black-belt and moogle-belt packs

CoM is very sensitive to the amount of raw health you have to work with as well, even more so in the 3D version that the collection uses. I generally advise 2 HP ups for every CP up, with Sleights getting learned as soon as they're available. If you haven't been doing that, you may just straight up need to level more. Twilight Town is when the game takes the breaks off and starts getting hard, low health isn't going to cut it.

I dont really recommend any HP ups tbh, i got 1 per 10 levels basically, the games card system is extremely abuseable I honestly would just look up how to abuse the card system

Get Sonic Blade, it should stun any enemy for long enough that they can't use any 0 cards, meaning that you can just spam it while they can't do anything.

You only need HP if you are really bad IMO. I remember not getting any HP upgrades at all when I played this, though that was on PS2.
