DescriptionEdit

This mod cranks up the challenge of the base game across all difficulties

You will have to start a new game to get these changes to take effect (only start a new game if specified in any updates)

Changes to gameplay:

  • All bosses except Pete, Barbarossa, Shenzai, banzai and ed are lvl 99 (Pete, Barbarossa, Shenzai, Banzi and ed all scale to their 2nd world visit instead)
  • All enemy AI has been buffed to be more aggressive
  • All enemies have 0.5x resistance to all elements
  • All enemies have 2x health except for some bosses to prevent crashes
  • Drive forms / summons duration 0.5x
  • Drive forms / summons exp requirements 2x
  • Drive forms / summons give nothing other than growth abilities
  • Auto abilities can not be obtained or equipped (applies to everyone)
  • Access to all combo modifier's at start of the game
  • Obtainable antiform (after defeating the possessor / thresholder door boss fight in beast's castle it will appear in the drive menu as a selectable form)

Includes a compatible version of the Sephiroth absent silhouette mod by svenchu who gave me permission to add the files. Sephiroth's absent silhouette at Kingdom Hearts II final mix nexus - mods and community (nexusmods.com)

This mod is meant to be used with drive at Kingdom Hearts II final mix nexus - mods and community (nexusmods.com)

About the difficulty spike:

  • The first two Axel fights with Roxas are meant to teach you that you cant rush in anymore you must think and plan your next move.
  • Due to how some bosses mechanics work some bosses will be much harder than others.
  • Level one runs might be possible in (new game plus)

Updates

(2.62) - Final update

Buffs:

  • Gave Sora, Donald and goofy access to all of their combo modifiers at the start of the game
  • Gave Donald and goofy their combo modifiers by default
  • Gave all party members and mickey second chance and once more by default
  • Increased the power of elemental boosts (20% -> 50%)

Warning:

  • Do not use Sora's combo modifier's as Roxas (only start using them after Sora gets to hollow bastion for the first time)
  • You can only use scan, guard and aerial recovery as Roxas
  • I'm not responsible if you brick your Roxas cause you can't follow some simple instructions

Changed lv up rewards for shield:

  • lvl 69 summon boost -> damage drive
  • lvl 72 form boost -> drive boost

Increased the lvl of the following enemies to lvl 99

  • MCP barriers
  • Water clones
  • Fake vivis
  • Luxord cards
  • Ghost of scar
  • Vexen anti Sora's (all versions)

Nerfs:

  • Removed all beneficial abilities from drive forms
  • Limited Sora's max drive gauge to 5 (beat the gate defense in hallow bastion)
  • Limit form (limits no longer heal Sora)

Side note: you may notice that certain bonus level get rewards are empty when completing certain fights this is not a bug and is intentional
