Head inside to talk to Phil. You'll then be teleported inside the Coliseum and find a SHRED OF WISDOM. While fighting in the Coliseum you lose most of your deck commands and your shortcut commands.

So this area is more like a traditional RPG. You go first, then the eneimes back and forth. You use your commands to make a stack and then use it all at once. It's also important to destroy ALL the bloxes in each room as these effect the strength level of the enemies and hinder your ability to move on to the next room. Hitting A right before you land an attack will let you attack more in one move. You can also hit Y to Block.

Level 1 (yellow) - Normal
Level 2 (red) - Double Strength
Level 3 (Flashing) - Triple Strength

Keep working your way from room to room making sure to use Potions as needed until you get the large top room. Make sure break all the bloxes to get a STRENGTH 1, MAGIC 1, and HP 2. The Warp to the next layer is in the back corner.

In Layer 2 you will be introduced to Licenses. You'll get a few right away, STRENGTH-L, BREAK-L, DEFENSE- L. Then once you win the battle you'll get a SCOUT-L. After clearing out the entire room head back to the first room to meet up with Hercules. He'll join your party and you'll go into a battle. Now that you have Hercules you can use him to break down all the walls in the layer.

When you get to the next mid stage the Moogle will give you some freebies. CHARGE-L, AUTO-BLOCK-L, REGEN-L, and a AUTO-LIFE-L. The next stage includes spinning vortexes that are high level encounters. You want to make sure you attack first and be ready with the Licenses you want as these can be tough encounters where 5 plus Heartless are attacking at once. Use High Jump to get to the bottom right for some good Prizes. Then do the left side followed by the right side. The top section contains a boss battle after clearing the first area.

BOSS: CLOUD

BOSS: Cloud

This can be a tough battle so using an Auto-Life, Auto-Block and Strength Licenses might be a good idea. Especially considering how long ago you probably saved last. Cloud's big attack is his Omnislash. This attack can hit both of you multiple times. Make sure to time your attacks right for combos and criticals.

Work your way through Layer 4 as you had all the previous layers. You'll find  Cloud in the upper right corner. Then head to the lower left to help him with a fight. Stock up and save and then it's on to the final fights.

BOSS: CERBERUS

BOSS: Cerberus

Cerberus attacks the whole party with Fireballs and can do a triple bit attack that hits the whole party also. Luckily you have Cloud on your team so use Cura and keep the pressure up with damage.

BOSS: HADES

BOSS: Hades

You get no rest between battles so Regen-L and Defense-L can mean the difference between living and dying. Blizzard based attacks do the most damage and be careful of the Fire based attacks that will be coming your way with abundance. Hades will also summon extra Heartless and he is immune to Fire damage so don't bother.
