FAQs About Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Command Melding
What is melding in KH BBS?
In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, it's possible to meld (combine) commands to create new and more powerful commands. When you attach an item to a command meld, you get a passive ability on the newly created command.
Why should I level up commands?
When you have the command in the active battle command deck or action command deck, the passive ability will be equipped. By fully leveling up your command, you will earn the passive command permanently
What do Crystals do in Command Melding?
Crystals determine what ability will be attached to the newly created command.
How do I get Second Chance?
Second Chance is a powerful ability that lets you survive a strong attack with 1 HP. The most reliable way to get it is by using a Pulsing Crystal during melding. For example:
Blizzara + Blizzara + Pulsing Crystal
