Start by aiming for Quick Run Lv1 on normal Sora

Your first target is Wisdom Lv3. It unlocks Quick Run Lv1 for normal Sora, making it a useful stopping point for this training.

What to check before starting

Start after clearing Timeless River and obtaining Wisdom Form at Disney Castle.

Put Donald in the party and build the Drive Gauge to at least 3. If you cannot transform, recheck these two points and whether you have obtained the form.

Form experience comes from defeating Heartless while transformed

Defeating one Heartless while in Wisdom Form adds 1 form experience point. Landing hits alone does not add experience, so target enemies you can finish within the time available.

1. Go from the Hall of the Cornerstone to Timeless River

Pass through the door in Disney Castle's Hall of the Cornerstone to Cornerstone Hill. From here you can enter the four windows. First check the location of the door back to the castle.

2. Transform before combat, then fight beyond a window

Before entering a window, transform into Wisdom Form on Cornerstone Hill while out of combat. Transforming during combat can trigger Anti Form, so transform first for this training.

The windows lead to Building Site, Lilliput, Scene of the Fire, and Mickey's House. Instead of trying to visit all of them immediately, start with a short trip to fight in one location and return, learning how much time the journey back needs.

3. Use magic too, and finish enemies off

In Wisdom Form, Attack becomes Shoot, and you can chain magic quickly. Do not insist on using Shoot alone; use the magic you have learned to defeat enemies too.

4. Return to the castle before the transformation ends

When the remaining gauge gets low, return through Cornerstone Hill to the Hall of the Cornerstone. Returning to the castle while still in Wisdom Form refills the Drive Gauge. Go through the door again to continue training.

If the transformation ends on the way back, you cannot use this refill. Do not prolong fights; stop with enough time to return. If you miss the timing, head back earlier on your next trip.

Check your abilities at Lv3

At Lv3, find and equip Quick Run Lv1 in normal Sora's ability list. Tilt the left stick and press Square to move quickly. Try the controls somewhere without enemies first.
