Donald Duck is dead again.

[TheForestSpirit]

Donald Duck is always dying I thought he was supposed to be really good at magic? well he could have fooled me. He's good at being bad as in really bad but that's it. Whenever he screams OWWWW you always know he's going to end up dead again.

In the start menu, there's an option which allows you to change how Donald's CPU behaves in combat. it's not a perfect solution, but if you prioritise defensive magic, you may see that happen less frequently.

Thanks guys it's been years since I last played this game which was on PS2 when it came out so I've kinda forgotten about everything.

In addition to adjusting his AI, it's helpful to favor defense and Max HP accessories for him. As a caster Max MP is technically his most important stat, but he can't cast if he's dead all the time. It gets easier keeping him up once Goofy learns the "Evolution" ability, which are basically pocket Mega-potions he can dump his otherwise unused MP into. Shame he doesn't keep the ability in KH2 and on.

This is how you lose all your healing items and MP items to Donalds insatiable appetite.

Personally I prefer MP gift given he can just dump MP into me and I can use it more effectively than Donald.

Having second chance equipped on Donald helps him but they changed it in FM. He does not learn that ability til level 59. In the original, he learns it much sooner at 25

Personally I prefer him being dead instead of casting Stop on some random trash enemy just to extend its life by a few seconds.

You don't know frustration until Donald casts stop on an invulnerable black fungus during the peagasus cup time trial.

I'd rather keep Goofy with just MP Gift, then he's free MP the whole game if you don't equip his other abilities. Thought it's kind of funny when Donald is down and he gives him MP lol.

But then he's ready when he's back up. Which isn't long once you have Second Chance and Second Wind it's not really that bad for either of them. Other than something like Hades' spinning fire wall attack they suck at avoiding damage there and even at high levels will probably kill themselves.
