Chain of Memories whats the best keyblade in CoM

I think its diamond dust because of the 2 star stats

 

Kingdom Key is the best because Sleights > KeyBlade chains. Along with all the others that have an A rank CP Cost for Sleights like Blitz.

As for KeyBlades you would use in chains... Diamond Dust is fast in Swinging and Recovering, but is somewhat hurt by the element. Still, it has overall powerful stats. Other close contenders are OathKeeper which has a balanced stat spread, with an excellent Thrust, and Oblivion which can make up for its low Swing with Card Soldier and still have an excellent Recovery, along with no full blocks and strong leading and connecting hits.

One-Winged Angel, Crabclaw, and Metal Chocobo have their uses as finishers, but they're not as spectacular as the other KeyBlades in my opinion. Divine Rose is a decent Strike card, but with such a low Thrust damage ratio, I use it very seldomly and carefully incase a chain is screwed up and starts off with a Thrust rather than a Strike. Lastly, SpellBinder has a cool Thrust (although not reliable overall), and LionHeart has great all around stats except for the horrid Swing.

Ultima Weapon has strength in any part of the chain, but the bad Element, average Swing/Recovery, and the expensive Cost makes me careful in considering it for anything outside of rushing the final boss.

 

Kigdom key is best for a deck using sleighs because of it's low CP cost. As for the rest......

Strike (first hit)
strongest-Ultima weapon
2nd strongest-oblivion (nueltrel element) and divine rose
3rd strongest-diamond dust (ice element)

thrust (second hit)
strongest-ultima weapon and oathkeeper
2nd strongest-spellbinder (thunder element) and oblivion (nuetrel element)
3rd strongest-diamond dust (ice element)

combo finish (last hit)
strongest-one winged angel (fire element)
2nd strongest-Ultima weapon
3rd strongest-crabclaw, metal chocobo (nuetrel element) and oathkeeper

That should cover everything.

 

Oathkeeper, Diamond Dust, and Ultima Weapon as they do the most damage.

 

Although everyone may think a deck full of ultima weapons in a good thing, have they ever considered the CP required for such a deck? The Cp requirement for a Ultima weapon of 8 card value costs 51 CP, an amout that is more than ever type of summon cards, magic cards and attack cards of the highest value. The only thing that require more CP than ultima weapon are items cards. So, good luck with that ultima weapon deck. Attack cards that you should consider building around are cards with equal buit high value like lionheart, diamond dust and oathkeeper. (In this criteria, oathkeeper is the best for it's strong thrust)

 

Well, you have to think about elements and Break Recovery too. If you use a low recovery rate card like One-Winged Angel, then you can get Stopga'd and then 2hko'd with Magic Boosted Holy sleights. And then, the Physical elemental KeyBlades are screwed by Large Body cards, and the Diamond Dust card is outdone by a combination of both Lexaeus and Vexen. The Lightning and Fire Keyblades aren't as easily phazed out like this, but then you have to take into consideration that Spellbinder has terrible stats, LionHeart is slow, and OWA only has that Finish going for it with a terrible Recovery. As such, Oblivion > Oblivion > Metal Chocobo is a chain with the best type coverage (Only resisted, never Nullified), and decent Recovery, and then the Swing Speed can be made up for with Card Soldier and maybe the Guard Armor and Larxene cards.

 

Yeah, that sounds good Nol. I'll try that.

 

one fun challenge I gave myself was an all kingdom key deck, I still had magic and summons and such, but the only keyblade cards I used were some variation of the Kingdom Key, made the game alot of fun, I hope to find fun little things like that for Re:CoM when I get it...

 

Eh, most of my decks feature only Kingdom Keys for KeyBlades. Of course, that's because I only use them for Breaking and Sleighting...

 

My personal favorites seemed to be either the Divine Rose, Lady Luck, Oathkeeper, or the Kingdom Key. Kinda a four-way tie for my favorites.

 

To me, I would fill my deck with Oathkeepers beacuse of their all-round advantage. (B strike, *thrust and B+combo finish)

 

Well I think the best keyblades in CoM are the "Kingdom key" and "Oblivion"
At least that's what I think...I'm almost at the end of the game and I think those are the best keyblades! :)
