Fat Chocobo simulation (don't play on easy for this as it'll likely die beforehand) Use two ATB charges with Tifa on Unbridled strength if you don't have the core ability that unlocks the boosted chi, and fill a third bar of ATB for her true strike ability. Get fat chocobo stunned, cast stop with Barret or whoever you got running it at the time, and use true strike and then spam triangle for her chi moves to put you way over 300 stagger for the trophy.

Quick Tip: In chapter 14, slot a first strike and put fire and magnify in a linked slot all on the same character. Fill out the rest with materia you want to level. Spam the 3 member coliseum fight. Cast nothing but firaga. The full runs will take about 30 seconds. Within a few hours you can easily hit 50 and max most materias. You can also sell the celeris that drop for a good bit of gil.

For Tifa, I use the Accessory+Materias that quickly increases your ATB and Limit Break bar gains+Refocus Materia. (With Aerith ATB booster skill) 7-8 different attacks in 10 seconds.

Something I haven't seen anyone mention with the magnify materia and it's linked materia. The ara and aga spells have splash radius aga having a larger radius of course. So anything close to the target also takes a good chunk. This also applies to the branch off from magnify. So if there were 4 monsters clumped together and you cast Firaga, The initial burst hits hardest on main target but also does splash damage, magnify kicks in and it branches out to all nearby targets. The best part is you now have 3 Firaga stacked on each other all throwing out splash damage as well. I didn't realize it at first but noticed they always took more damage the closer they were clumped. Sure enough you can see all the crazy numbers go out.
@goshtic95654 жыл бұрын
Here's another tip for you, link that same spell in another slot with MP Absorb and watch your MP get filled back. I use Aerith to instant clear the chapter levels she's in with this setup without having to worry about MP. So you would have Lightning + Magnify, Lightning + MP Absorb. If you want unnecessary overkill setup, Lightning + HP Absorb as well. So when she uses any lightning spells, she gain HP and MP back while also doing area damage to everything within radius. If a certain mob doesn't get one shot by her, have Arcane Ward out and cast in the circle, for double cast. On the 2nd cast, it's reduced MP usage, so you gain back even more MP if you can out damage the usage.
@imalive4u1694 жыл бұрын
Actually all the materia have their usefulness and it's always good to plan ahead before a boss fight equipping materia which can give you an advantage. For instance while fighting Reno I equipped a lightning materia paired with a maxed out elemental materia on my armor when he used the lightning balls it actually healed Cloud making the fight much more easier on hard mode. Also the provoke materia has its uses. You can only control one character at a time and often the character you control becomes the primary target of enemy attacks the other characters are largely ignored. You can change this with the provoke materia so by equipping it upon one of the characters the enemies instead will focus the majority of their attacks upon that character which comes in handy like using Barrett as a tank you rarely control him while Aerith a character you often control will be free to cast spells to damage or heal the other character.

2:18 I see you fighting those two Cutters the difficult way. Just slot Aerith with: Lightning + Magnify, Magic Up x2, First Strike, Staff with highest M.Atk, Accessory that boost M.Atk 10%. Set L1 shortcut to have her magnify cast Thundaga, so you don't have to fiddle with the menu, saving precious time. If you get it high enough, she can 1 shot them at the beginning of the battle. You can also just fight them in easy mode, since it gives same amount of AP as normal. You can clear that battle in an average of 8 seconds if your Aerith is powerful. My quickest clear is 3 secs. It's the fastest way to level up Materias by farming those two Cutters. You can make an average of 90-120AP per minute (even tho, you kill them in 3-8secs, there's still animation/loading), and 2x faster on a materia if you use AP Up on one of them.

One thing that isn't too clear about Elemental..it is either or...it can add the element to your weapons only if set in your weapon and if you want to use it defensively it must be set to your armor. Luckily you get 2 but the 2nd one is only for beating all possible quests in one run.

Elemental materia only works toward halving elemental damage when it's linked on armor.and elemental effect on weapons when on a linked weapon slot..you have to choose offense or defense unless you use 2 different elemental materia on 1 character
@Drpissed4 жыл бұрын
When maxed it absorbs (heals) slotted element when attached to armour. Prime example: Thunder-Elemental in Armour slot (Maxed elem materia) agaisnt Reno. All his drones and special attacks heal. Another example is Shiva. Every attack she does is Ice based. Ice/elem equals no damage at all to whoever has it equipped.

To break the game= This is call the Zonol built. magic up x2 / heal/ Atb boost/ first strike / 2 elements recommend=fire and thunder / luck materia (optional) hp x 2(optional) or replace 1 hp up with revival mythril saber (get all magic damage up) / platinum earrings/ chain bangle. If your make is in the 400s you'll see that damage. My magic is 450-49x depending who I use. *PUT BARRIER with magnify on another chr* cast wall on your team. Pray could be a good aoe heal on a aerith or cloud. This can also be used with aerith and her mythril rod get all magic and material buffs

The magnify materia isn't really AOE it actually hits multiple targets, or your whole crew if you pair it with a beneficial spell. A great pairing would be either magnify+time casts haste on your party, then you can cast slow on all the enemies or magnify+barrier that'll give your party added magic and or physical defense depending on the level of barrier.

Coliseum fights and a Fight Simulator will be your best bet for grinding AP. You can get most of your party to level 50 as early as Chapter 9 once you can use the Coliseum and use the "Two Party vs. Thugs". To make it as quick and easy as possible, use Magnify+Fire Linked and First Strike on someone and cast Fire on everyone for near 1 hit wins at first and later on one hit wins.

One more thing to add, in a way there is a sort of 3rd elemental materia. With the enemy skill Algid Aura which you can learn off the Cerulean Drake...it adds an icy shield that not only does a bit of ice damage to enemies that make contact, it also adds ice element to your weapon. Of course only useful against enemies weak to ice which are basically grounded monster type enemies. Also Magnify is without a doubt the best materia in the game along with AP Up as there are only one of each in the entire game. MP Absorb too, but a 0.1% absorption rate seems sort of lame. I guess in hard mode it could be useful but even then it can be debated...s shame because that required maxing out all the green materia which isn't that easy. MP absorb should have just been a materia that cuts all spells MP cost down by half or a quarter or something.

i'm curious if you have a weapon with 4 linked slots (2 linked + 2 linked) and you set one pair with say Fire materia+Elemental and the other with Fire materia+HP absorb. Would it make the Flame damage you deal with weapon attacks, Absorb HP?... EDIT- Well tried it, and apparently no, it doesn't work, when 2 materias are linked, they are they own separate thing. Sad face...

I find the elemental materia is most effective on Tifa as she has the fastest hit speed. Also prefer to use the the magnify spell on the barrier materia as its upgraded version is super expensive to individual cast. Its very expensive and Prayer is much better for hard mode, it requires no mana. Chakra also is a very effective means for preserving mana on harder modes. Hands down the holy grail for groups a combination of HP absorb and the enemy skill materia, once you acquire Spirit Siphon the life return makes packs seem laughable even on hard mode.

Enemy skill is my go to on the original. The remake version sucks because the enemies to hit you with a attack is by random. On the original i can get all skills by using the manipulate materia to control the enemies to use their attack or benefit skills on the party. Maybe on the second part remake we will get the manipulate materia during the Gold Saucer scenario from Cait Sith.
