...for the most part. Every time Xigbar shifts the arena, it resets Sora back to the ground. Baring these moments, it's possible to stay in the air for the entire fight thanks to Xigbar only using projectiles and often standing in the air. Because of that, the fight is very "air-friendly" and actually looks pretty cool. At some points, it even felt like gliding around made the attacks easier to deal with, like that beginning portion when Xigbar cuts out the middle of the arena.


That said, I had quite a few hairy moments in the video (4:44 was cutting it so close I thought I lost the run XD) and I ended up using almost all of my items, but I managed to eek out the win at the end so all's good. Dealing with the attack where he makes the ring of dark arrows spread also gave me some problems just finding out how to properly block all of them while staying in the air.


Part of what I appreciate about this fight is how many openings Xigbar has, which made the fight feel really fast paced and intense trying to balance between blocking and attacking. To my surprise, it's also possible to get through the entire DM without a scratch (though I don't quite manage it in this run because I got hit right at the end, lol). The hard part about getting past the DM unscathed was figuring out what combination of movements let me dodge the lasers from above and it took some tries to find out that specific sequence of gliding and air sliding. Alternatively, it might also be possible to get through it with a formchange finisher when the lasers start raining from above.
