He wields a powerful shield against incoming attacks but has strength that pales in comparison to Sora.
As a result, youll want to bolster his attack power to match the rest of the crew.
Yet Goofy doesnt wield any weapons, opting to go for a shield.
He steers clear of confrontation, with Sora often being the main damage dealer.
Its a square book-like shield that, despite its geeky appearance, carries great strength.
When equipped, it gives Goofy faster MP regeneration.
Goofys MP is typically lower.
Unless, of course, its stats are cut back.
Still,Kingdom Hearts 2.5 Final Mixmaintains the same high calibre of flawless execution.
Goofy Tornado is an action ability that only costs two AP points and ten MP when used.
Once equipped, it lets you perform a spinning attack that unleashes multiple hits on enemies.
It looks like an upside-down teardrop and provides additional strength of five points.
As a result, every upward and downward slash inflicts more damage.
For an even better defense, it’s possible for you to upgrade it to Frozen Pride +.
Genji Shield
Genji Shield returns with toned-down stats.
Yet even with the cut-back on strength, it still offers an impressive six additional points to Goofys strength.
Unlike other shields, Genji Shield adds an extra layer of protection via hyper-healing.
The passive ability ensures Goofy quickly revives when defeated while restoring much of his HP.
Its a special ability that allows Sora and Goofy to team up and unleash a most brutal Whirli-Goof attack.
With two successful attacks, youll unlock a more powerful Whirli-Goofra attack that inflicts more damage on enemies.
Knight Defender (Shield)
Another shield to have in your corner is Knight Defender.
Its probably the only shield that looks like a weapon, with a knights helmet for its design.
While Goofy doesnt typically take on boss fights, wielding Knight Defender can help make optional fights easier.
Teamwork (Ability)
Besides Tornado Fusion, youll want to equip Teamwork.
Its another action ability, costing three AP points, that unleashes a flurry of charging attacks non-stop.
In the end, youll wipe out several enemies, all in one batch.
Precisely, you gain five extra strength points, giving you a better fighting chance against stronger foes.
However, alongside more attack power, you also enjoy self-sustaining protection from attacks.
The shield will absorb 10% of all damage sustained, giving you an upper hand on the battlefield.
Save the King+ (Shield)
One of the top go-to shields for Goofy is Save the King+.
It gives you a whopping nine more strength points, the highest of all the shields available.
Moreover, you also enjoy access to the shields passive ability, Item Boost.
With Item Boost automatically equipped, Goofys effectiveness at restoring items used on the battlefield increases by 50%.
It ensures that no matter how tough the battle, youll always have a constant supply of resources.
The only other shield more powerful than Save the King+ is Ultimate (or Limited) Mushroom.
It gives you nine more strength points.
But beyond better offense, you also enjoy automatic access to Protega.
Its a passive ability that takes away 40% of all damage sustained in battle.
With Protega, Goofy is an unstoppable force that doesnt die too quickly.
He withstands attacks for longer, clearing smaller enemies so Sora focuses on the main course.
Its no surprise many gamers are opting to have Ultimate Mushroom on their build for Goofy.
