FF7 Rebirth Final Boss Sephiroth Hard Mode

[@mattappl3119]

Well done, I struggled with this fight for so long and i never thought to use spell blade to pressure him

[@jornado8774]

Thank you but I only make it look this good because I failed at it for 3 hours or so before this run lol

[@briansilva4165]

Why does everyone ignore the summon? I use the summon and while it is attacking I’m building my atb dodging, blocking and attacking from afar.

[@CJLAKE123]

@@briansilva4165That’s what I do. Plus, Odin & all summons give you a free 9,999 attack against him.

[@arnold666heartagram]

Only Rufus was hard for me it took 10 Times to defeat him,while Sephiroth is easy as f***

[@MK-fm3ln]

I did chapter 14 3 times last night just to play with different combinations. I like gotterdamerung on Aerith and Enhanced Expeditinary medal on cloud. Can do 3-4 level 3 limits with cloud having limit siphon. Also get to siphon a bunch of the other fights makes them go fast

I feel Final Fantasy VII was about life, but Final Fantasy VII Rebirth enters into the metaphysical, as in the afterlife - or the life of the soul, as well as the body the soul inhabits.

[@jornado8774]

Yeah they are definitely trying to expand on the story that the original game told. I'm enjoying it so far, cant wait for the final installment of the remake.

[@itsbeyondme5560]

Good analysis

[@TheDeej666]

I agree!

[@Valor72]

So well said, a great evolution of themes

[@metalbutterflygaming1544]

nice to see Aerith alive and kicking which I much prefer if you know what I mean.

[@OzwellSpencer]

This is HARD !!!

[@BreadandFaxes]

Keep rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin

[@manwiththemachinegun]

Is there any particular reason you don't use the punisher counter or counter stance for his normal swings?

[@jornado8774]

I was pretty much following a youtuber's guide to the letter and their guide didn't use any of those blocking mechanics. This was also pretty early in the game's life cycle to clear hard mode, so there's way better strategies and materia builds to use for it now. But yeah, pretty much just doubled down on the guide I was using.

[@manwiththemachinegun]

@@jornado8774 It's still an impressive fight! I was just curious.

[@jornado8774]

@@manwiththemachinegun I appreciate that! And thanks for watching

[@saigebasil2285]

How come you use spell blade as opposed the bigger damage dealing moves when Sephiroth is staggered? Is it to save ATB for healing and other pressuring moves?

[@jornado8774]

Theres a few reasons. Spell Blade still deals moderate damage but because it's a synergy skill it's a little faster to execute than going into tactical mode. It also refills some ATB upon usage so you're able to chain several of then together during stagger. It would be hard to use a 2 ATB attack and charge up another 2 ATB during the stagger period. You could do it but would need great timing. I also had to be conservative with my MP so magic was off the table during stagger.

[@7spider391]

I was so hoping you finally kill sephiroth here

[@kevinrichardson3425]

We got 1 more part left. Safer Sephiroth in Part 3 which will probably be the most OP thing we will ever see

[@7spider391]

@kevinrichardson3425 Omg l hope this is the part I finally kill him I fought him in both games he's like a cockroach that just won't die

[@FabzP96]

You haven't played the OG have you???

[@MUIJohny]

@@kevinrichardson3425hopefully we also see cloud ultimate Omnislash as well

FF7 Reunion 02/29/2028

[@BattlerTran]

This battle kinda reminds me of Kingdom Hearts, Sora & Kairi vs Master Xehanort.

[@rickygamerpro]

That limit break It's filling very quickly, how ???

[@jornado8774]

I'm filling limit mostly through staggering Sephiroth a lot. You get 33% limit every time you stagger an enemy in this game.

[@speedboom9392]

Don’t think I didn’t notice that Aerith didn’t get her final weapon or her final limit break. I have a feeling she’s not gone for ever and thank goodness because she is everything to me.

[@TheDeej666]

Holy crap! Very nice job!!!😮 I typically prioritize MP towards Manawall & ATB towards defensive Summons… I see battles can be done without either now!🤔 You are a legend and this was very insightful for what’s to come. Again, very cool job!🫡

[@jornado8774]

Hey no shame in using Manawall, it's a good spell I just didnt have barrier materia on either of these characters. I do think the summons are a little underpowered in this game that's why I didnt use it here.

[@TheDeej666]

@@jornado8774 I agree with you about the Summons in-battle usefulness…It seems like most ppl equip them purely for their various Stat boosts (e.g. Alexander’s Defensive boosts, or Phoenix’s Magic boosts).

[@JujuKek]

Press R1 to block.

Have you guys wondered that Rufus is faster than Sephiroth? For Boss Battle Rufus>Sephiroth
