KHUX My Thoughts and Experiences On UnionX[Cross]'s Proud Mode

Recommended Posts

Before I start, I'm mostly a F2P and only be a P2P if I have money that I want to treat myself with. I P2P sometimes, but not a lot. 

 

So, back before Unchained X became UnionX[Cross], we were introduced to Proud Mode. By this being a Kingdom Hearts title, I knew without a doubt that Proud Mode was going to be hard. So, I tried it despite I wasn't all that strong, and I don't think I was confident enough to excel the first batch of missions. 

 

One thing funny though before I tried it.

 

Since we got Proud Mode, I press the button that'll lead me to it. As I pressed the button, I realized that all this time--ALL THIS TIME we've been playing the Story Mode quests on Standard Mode! STANDARD FREAKING MODE! I was dumbfounded over this realization. And I just had flashbacks of me starting a Kingdom Hearts title on Beginner's Mode and Normal Mode on the first original Kingdom Hearts title. I do this just to build up confidence so, I'll be ready to play the really hard difficulties.  

 

I was like: "Square Enix... You mean to tell me, I've been playing these Story Mode quests, getting Jewels, whooping the Heartless and Disney Villains, on Standard Mode?! All this time?!"

 

Moving on... 

 

So months ago back in 2016, I started to try Proud Mode. And yes as I thought, it was really hard. Verrrry hard.... I've learned that THEY pick the Keyblade for you, you can't use Friend Medals, and THEY will give you conditions. So, as I tried to follow the given conditions, I ended up stopping and just put Proud Mode on hold. I think at the time, I was able to get the Sleeping Lion Keyblade, but I couldn't go any further because the next few quest involves the Moogle O' Glory. And I was like: "I can't do this quest! My Moogle O' Glory is weak! They must be out of their rabid mind."

 

So, for weeks and months, I've done event quests to get these medals, and tried to do these Moogle O' Glory quests at my pace. Plus using a shared Daisy and Minnie medal. I even did those Adamantite Ore Challenges at my own pace. I've even pulled four times to get Illustrated KH2 Kairi. Doing these things helped me. My MoG is getting stronger. 

 

So, as I do these Proud Mode quests, there are times I would get all objectives, only get the first two objectives, not get all objectives, and not "Defeat all enemies".

 

Here are just 3 Conditions that are alright and that I really hate. I'm only going to list 3 of each.

 

Conditions that are alright  

1. Use Upright Medals only. (Yay! I can use KH2 Kairi!)

2.  Use All Target Medals only. ( KH2 Kairi!)

3. Only special attacks requiring 1 gauges or fewer are allowed. (Did I forget to mention KH2 Kairi? LOL)

 

​Conditions that I really hate

 

​1. Use Reverse Medals only. (Now if you have Reverse Medals that are buffs/attacks, you should be fine.) 

2. Medals, that are 4 or more gauges are allowed. (Ugh... Please don't get me started... But, I feel like that's all going to change, after what I've done...) 

3. Use Single Target Medals only. (I hate this one the most, because you have to figure out how to defeat about 4 to 5? enemies. One bright side of it, I have the Chip and Dale medal despite they restore 4 gauges.) 

  

 

 There's some conditions to use Medals that has a STR/DEF or 8150 or any number given. 

 

One thing new I have found out. As I finishing up doing the Proud Mode quests, I found out that the Wretched Witch quest is timed. This isn't a condition, but a objective. So, does that means whatever bosses we have defeated in Standard Mode, are all of these quests are going to be timed? That's my only question to Proud Mode.

 

To end this, yeah Proud Mode is hard to some people, easy to others. If you are a F2P, it'll take some time to get to the very point of you doing better in Proud Mode (to the point you'll able to get some Electrium Ores from some of the quests.). P2Ps it's probably easy or maybe it's somewhat hard for them too. I can't really say for sure.

Well, I have to tip my hat to you in respect, because I haven't even dared to touch Proud Mode, except for the first two or three quests, and this comes from a person who dives headfirst into the hardest difficulty in a Kingdom Hearts game!

 

But like you, I was under the assumption that we were already playing this game in a demanding difficulty, but apparently, that was not the case! xD

 

But yes, I really don't know if I should continue forward with Proud Mode or not. I guess I'll start it whenever I see fit. :3

We pretty much have the same story. I'm 100% F2P player, never spent a single dime on it, so when illustrated KH2 Kairi arrived, it was my salvation! I was able to go through all the adamantite and Moogle o' Glory quests and strength my keyblades.

Then I was able to tackle on Proud quests.

Like you said, KH2 Kairi is out savior in this game! You can use it on almost every quest and if it has 150% SA, you can go without worrying.

I also hate single target rule! To do it, you basically need all medals to be with full Special Attack, something that F2P players don't have. I also hate any rule that involves only one gauge (use medals with 1 gauge, 3 gauges...) and anyone with 7+ hits (most of mine don't have the special ability unlocked).

I didn't like Wretched Witch quest...Heartless on narrow paths, a long way to get to her...to finish it before 35 seconds, I had to replay it a few times and did it twice to get all three Mickeys.

I love Union X. It's the best game I've ever played on my phone, I play it every day without getting bored but they need to release both story and proud quests more often. They take too long to release them and in small amounts (15 story quests? Really? Seriously?) That's the only currently problem for me in this game.

Yeah, I just do what I can do in Proud Mode. Then the Moogle O' Glory Keyblade came, and it just got hard from there. That's pretty much why if they do those Event Quest I'll do them. Those medals might come in handy. 

 

I still couldn't believe that I've been playing Standard Mode all this time. It's like Square Enix is saying to me that I don't have to play, Beginner's Mode first. LOL

 

I say do it only if you think you are ready. Like I said: It's takes some time to do it. You'll need the right medals, really good skills, and your Keyblade has to be at a high level. Look on the bright side. When you are ready to do Proud Mode, you'll get 150 Jewels every five quests. That's a great way to get a lot of Jewels.

At the start of it all, Someone's Daisy and Minnie was my salvation doing some of the Admanitite Challenges. Then when getting KH2 Kairi, she was my salvation also!

 

Everywhere! Not just Proud Mode.

 

I kind of winging it out with the Single Target condition. With/without Special Attack. I even try and do those HSCs just to get the medals there. Just need get whatever medals I can. If I didn't have these medals, I don't even know how I'll play things out on this game. 

 

Yeah. That Wretched Witch quest. I have to see if there's a way to beat it within 35 seconds. I was thinking I could pass through the Heartless carefully. I got only 2 objectives so far. 

 

I love the game too! And I feel like I get the pattern of how they are releasing the Story Mode quests. They'll release them kind of mid way in the month before the Organization 13 Event. They have to translate the dialogue, probably check the parameters, and other things before releasing them. I'm very patient when it comes to them.

150 Jewels every five quests, huh? That does sound promising! But I don't think I'll delve completely into Proud Mode just yet. I don't wanna lose my head! And this comes from a guy that hasn't spent a single dime on the Extra Jewel Extravaganza deals or anything like that. :3
