Rock Titan
Kingdom Hearts
Immortal giant in the form of a stone crag. He has two heads, but can only think with one at a time. Defeated once by Hercules, he's now on the loose again, courtesy of Hades. He shook the scene in "Hercules" (1997).
Kingdom Hearts Re:coded
An immortal giant whose body is made of stone. Needless to say, one punch from this prodigious paperweight packs a wicked wallop, so be ready to restore your HP just as soon as you get hit.

Story[edit]

Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

The planets have aligned overOlympus, and with it,Hades sets into motion his master plan: releasing the four Titans - the Rock Titan being one of them - onto Olympus. After they wreak havoc in Olympus and leave it in ruins, Hades sets the Rock Titan at the summit of Mount Olympus, to guard the Realm of the Gods against Sora, Hercules and their companions.

As soon as Sora and co. approach the Mountainside area of Mount Olympus, they are attacked by falling boulders, which are the Rock Titan's doing. Sora scales the cliff, avoiding the boulders as he does so, until finally, he and his friends encounter the Rock Titan at the summit and defeat him.

Later, in the Realm of the Gods, the Rock Titan reappears to confront Sora and co.; however, Hercules freesZeus from his prison, and Zeus sends lightning bolts towards all the Titans, chasing them away. The Rock Titan, along with the other Titans, is scooped up into the Tornado Titan by Hercules's hands, and then released into space, where they are destroyed for good in an explosion.

Design[edit]

The Rock Titan is a gigantic, bulky creature that seems to be composed entirely of rough, uneven stone. His body is very large and barrel-shaped. His legs are short and its feet are flat, while his arms are relatively long and end in four-fingered hands. He has two comparatively small, draconian heads placed side-by-side on the top of his body. Both heads have thick necks, a peculiar lower jaw with four very large, blunt teeth. His eyes are very small and red, and the inside of both mouths are red as well.

The Rock Titan's name references his stony body, while "titan" is derived from theTitans of Greek mythology, which were loosely represented by the Rock Titan and his companions inHercules.

Strategy[edit]

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

The Rock Titan is the enemy with the most amount of HP in the game.

Lock-on to one of the Rock Titan's big feet and attack him with combos (such asArs Arcanum andGraviga). When the Rock Titan falls on his back, use the Superglide ability to float to one of the heads and attack from the far side. Be careful though, as the heads will swing at Sora;Dodge Roll/jump to avoid damage. Beware of the shock waves it releases, a single foot-stomp can deplete more than half of Sora's HP. Make use of Aeroga and heal when necessary.

Alternatively, equip a powerful Keyblade—Lionheart,Oblivion, orUltima Weapon—and repeatedly attack the legs with Ars Arcanum orSonic Blade until he falls down. Then, just keep using Ars Arcanum on the heads, as it will deal a large amount of damage. Using this method, the only magic needed is Curaga. However, if Sora usesAero, he will take damage simply by being close to him. Note each attack grants 1 tech Point.

The Rock Titan has few attacks, which are not used very often. The first one consists of a ground attack in which he lifts his hands and pounds the ground releasing a large shockwave that can be easily evaded by jumping; there is a second variation of this attack (if the player moves Sora to the stands) where Rock Titan will ball his hands together and slam them down creating a diagonal shockwave.

The second attack, consists of the Titan lifting one of his feet and stomping it down. The third is extremely rare and has two variants as well. The first sees the Titan rear its right arm back and then punch it down, going right to left, across the ground and the second variant is where he will rear rightwards then sweep his left hand backwards along the ground starting at his mid point and ending at his left foot.

The last attack appears when he's knocked on the ground and Sora gets the chance to attack his heads; it slams the heads down in an attempt to knock Sora off.

There is another tactic which involves Sora standing still in a corner of the arena atop the stairs, while waiting for Donald and Goofy to deplete the Rock Titan's HP by hitting its legs. Sora should nonetheless move to another corner if he is within range of a Both Arms Punch Shock Wave attack.

Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

Before facing the Rock Titan directly, Sora must scale the cliff while avoiding the boulders he throws down. After reaching him, Sora must attack both of his feet and damage them enough. During this phase, the Rock Titan attacks by stomping; the player must retreat from that foot to avoid damage. The Rock Titan can also create trails of rising rocks, indicated by a harmless blue trail beforehand.

His feet both have separate HP bars, and once they've been damaged the Rock Titan will fall back against the mountainside, where Sora must then scale his body and attack his heads. He attacks by swinging his heads. Eventually, Sora can use theMountain CoasterAttraction, and as he rides the train he must shoot repeatedly at whichever fist the Rock Titan is about to attack with, and deal more damage by shooting at the heads. Upon dealing enough damage, the Rock Titan will be defeated.

If the Rock Titan still has remaining HP after Mountain Coaster expires, Sora will land next to his feet, with both feet recovering to 50% HP. The HP recovery effect will also occur if 3 minutes have passed since the Rock Titan has fallen back against the mountainside.

However, if Sora is unable to use Mountain Coaster due to a PRO Code or out of the player's decision not to, then there is an alternate method for victory. Simply attack the heads with a combo or two, then quickly retreat before it attacks. If the heads come your way, simply useGuard to avoid damage.

Upon its defeat, Sora will gain a max MP increase.

Origin[edit]

The Rock Titan first appears in Disney's 1997 animated feature,Hercules, voiced byCorey Burton. Known in Disney canon as "Lythos," he wreaks havoc eons before the events of the film, along with his fellow Titans. The Titans' rampage is stopped by Zeus, however, and they are all imprisoned in a cage of lightning deep beneath the sea. Eighteen years after the birth of Hercules, Hades, the Lord of the Dead, steals the young hero's godly strength and uses his power to unleash Lythos and the other Titans. Hades, playing off of the Titans' lust for vengeance against Zeus, then proceeds to use the gigantic creatures to take over Mount Olympus, as it was foretold to him long ago in a prophecy made by the three Fates.

The titans head for Mount Olympus, where they attempt to get rid of Zeus. After Zeus regained his strength by throwing his thunderbolts at both of the Rock Titan's head, Hercules later comes to the rescue by using the Tornado Titan to suck the remaining Titans up and send them flying into space.
