Final Fantasy VII Rebirth The BEST AP Farm 42,000 P/H Master ALL Materia In LESS THAN 30 Minutes

[@Zephymastyx]

Great guide, couple of tips to make it even faster: - Have Aerith as caster and use L2/R2 to make her use the spells. That way, you can immediately run towards the next location with Cloud while waiting for the spell to finish. Also, at least at lv 70, she can one shot everything with just -ara, so you free up one Materia slot - Use a Chocobo to get from the 2nd to the 3rd enemy group. You don't need to wait for them, just hit R1 while sprinting and the Chocobo will catch up to you, allowing you to saddle up midsrpint. The example run in the video takes 95 seconds, the Chocobo saves ~5 seconds (other tip has less impact), with a bit of practice and input optimization, you can do 70-75 second runs.

Outside the 3-4 blue materia that take forever, I found the Queen Bee method to be the fastest to max everything (select chapter 13, start the Fluffy quest, and when you get to the boss, keep her alive so you can kill the Guard Bees she spawns. She spawns 4 at a time for 48 AP. I was able to kill the all with a perfect Yuffie Windstorm.)

Cant wait for the magic pot/mover farm in part 3.

[@xMrShadow]

I did this coming straight out of completing normal mode at lvl 5x. Couldn’t one shot the mobs and my switcast was still level one. But this still works really well. To compensate for some shortcomings, I used atb stagger materia, atb boost. Also threw on EXP materia and my characters got to level 70 in 20 minutes. To which then I was able to start one shotting the mobs. I also used aerith for this. If she ended up dying, I would just flee the battle and go in again without healing. I also had some materia slots to spare so for more damage I used magic focus. I also put up MP absorption. Great guide.

You CAN magnify in a shortcut: Set the spell to a shortcut in the menu and then hit L1 to toggle Magnify.

[@gasparguruoftime5475]

I'd recommend Chapter 11 instead. Chapter 12 forces you to pilot the Tiny Bronco all the way to Costa del Sol with no fast travel until you get there. Load up Chapter 11 and you can immediately call Cid to just fly you to Gongaga and fast travel to this spot instead. While you won't be able to fast travel between regions to respawn enemies, you can just Save/Load to respawn them instead.

Its faster if you map Blizzaga+Magnify to a shortcut and just run a lap in the Storehouse. From the start run to the group straight ahead, then left to the two Grandhorns, then outside to the Grangalans, then the 2 Frogs and Frightflowers back into the storehouse to the right. It saves about 10-15 seconds per run this way and your only losing 3ap per run. The travel from group 2 to group 3 takes too much time.

Good guide, but as an additional AP source there's another couple mobs (Firaga ones) right by where you start, it's a very quick detour after the first fight for a bit more AP.

[@drums450]

Friendly tip: The Chocobo Armband is a two slot piece of armor that has the triple AP property

[@Primalliquid92]

yes but when trying to max out all materia your better off just using a 6 slot armor otherwise your going to be changing materia constantly slowing you down, it would take longer to max out 6 materia using the chocobo armband than just a normal armor because of all the extra time menuing. the armband should only really be used when leveling something like swiftcast

[@drums450]

Yea, was mostly thinking about just for the really AP expensive materia. Been using it for Revive in my first playthrough. Will probably use it for the stat boosters when I get to postgame. Haven't even gotten Swiftcast materia yet. I assume I'll be using the armband for that, too Gave me good memories of Scimitar and Apocalypse from og ff7

[@danzoEX]

@@Primalliquid92would it be wise to save those time consuming materias last and then use the Chocobo Armband?

[@eduardomamede9779]

OMG! Thanks so much, that was a missing point on the tutorial, because the amount you earn individually still very low to rise the higher ap materias.

[@LuxDragon]

You missed another mob inside the gated area, near the first move you farm. More grandhorns. That makes 5 mobs in close proximity.

[@ThreePeekBTW]

Maaaaaaaan everytime i need any guides with JRPGs i can always rely on your vids! Thanks PL!

[@ryanhanson3365]

Alternate method, assuming you don’t have MAXed Quickcast: - Aerith is leader - Equip chocoking cape - Equip First Strike - Equip 2 Ice Materia - Pair each to an ice: Magnify, MP Absorb - Kill 1 chimera + 2 gigi with blizzaga - Kill 2 Grandhorns with blizzaga (the nearby ones) - Save/Load - Rinse/Repeat You never run out of MP this way and you don’t need to rely on HPMP which is risky without maxed Quickcast, which most people won’t have. Running the route in the video seems time consuming and if you have Quickcast maxed already you’re probably done with AP farming anyways honestly.

[@RocktoberPR]

Couple of questions. Is this faster than the infinite respawning bee enemies from Nibelheim sidequest? And do you get more AP by playing on Hard mode or is it the same on any difficulty?

[@shadowmosez1804]

I've seen on a different video that difficulty level does not change the amount of ap and xp you get, so just put it on easy.

@@TheGintama86 I know what he was doing, I was asking why he was doing it. I’m on Chapter 9 and haven’t seen anything worth farming Gil for so far, so I was asking if there was an actual reason why he was mastering materia to sell them, or if he was just doing it for the heck of it?

[@augmentedsoldier6676]

Unsure if you found it out or not yet but basically if you kill multiple in succession it just combines their total. So 3 enemies that give 6ap a piece is 18ap

[@Nonlifting_breezy]

Also hard mode is more ap

[@clipchamprazor3912]

If you are lazy you can literally just do Chadley's Grasslands battle that has 5 rounds. After level 26 or so you can turn it on and walk away if you want to and your party will win every round on their own. I did this while cooking dinner and cleaning and just kept queuing up the battle every few minutes. Every round is 56 AP for your AP Up Materia, so you can get most of your early material maxed out this way while just taking care of chores around your house. You can also just use ATB items to have Cloud start every fight with a bar and Triple Slash and win every fight very quickly. I did this early but I will say this made the game very unchallenging going forward, as I was about 8 or 9 levels ahead of where I should probably be at with almost every pre-Junon materia maxed out. Wouldn't do it again.

[@HorusDeathtouch]

I farmes that battle for about an hour towards the end of the junon area just to level up my materia. It made a lot of fights a ton easier just having Thundage etc. Bottomswell, or Twrror of the Deep as it's now called, was a pain in the demo, but a Thundaga dualcast from Aerith to easily stagger it a couple times made it relatively trivial.

[@Yhangus]

Which Intel is that for grasslands 1 or 2

[@HorusDeathtouch]

@@Yhangus You want to just do the first one. It's a higher rate of reward. The 2nd one doesn't give enough AP or exp to be worth the extra time it takes to complete, and once you're a higher level and further in the story, there are much better ways to grind. The best grinds aren't even in the simulator, because in there only the 3 party members get exp, whereas if you're on the overworld, you can load all 7 characters full of materia.

[@naecabon]

Just play in Dynamic difficulty and the enemies always match your level, can't outlevel it and then it won't feel unchallenging

[@ubu-ibme]

This works hella! Thank you 🙏 Improvement Ideas: 1. Reset in Nibel at Gjallar Bridge as there are two mob groups right next to it then go back to Gongaga. 2. Set Fire and Ice to swiftcast and use two magnify orbs (if you can) for fire and ice separately. 3. Set magnified fire/ice spells to shortcuts 4. Right before the Grangalan’s in Gongaga, call your chocobo, then battle, then zoom over to the Grandhorn/Frightflowers

[@seph149420]

Stop fast traveling, run a little bit away from where the mob spawns, save and then load the game. They all spawn and so do the items you can pick up.

[@MrNinosan]

Love your videos, as always, but hate your clickbaiting and false headlines. Why call it 42000 ap/h, when it's 6000? Just because it's 7 characters? Well if so, why not multiply with the amount of Materia slots to make it sound even better. With this method, you get 6000 ap/h, not more (if not using AP Up). And then you write, maxing any Materia in 30 minutes, which would mean that the Materia tops up att 3000 AP, which you sure do know many Materias don't. Keep making great videos, but stick to being honest, both with your numbers and titles. I use your guides in most rpgs, but I get frustrated every time due to the misinformation.

[@awilywolf]

So true! He is like calculating based off of Comet or something. Many higher level Materia have multiple levels that equate to huge cumulative AP requirements to max, not just the ones he mentioned. 6000 AP per hour assuming you nailing the postgame run once every minute, including menu navigation and fast travel load times, lol.

[@NokoFace]

Seriously that is SUPER misleading. Why bother multiply it per character when they all receive the AP other than to look impressive and get clicks?

hello your videos are really cool :) Will u do a tips for an easy way to kill virtual sephiroth :) ?

[@CorXtin_III]

The one in 3D battle ? There is a tip actually that makes the fight really easy if your having some trouble. Pause the game before each of his actions and you will be able to see and take the time to dodge all his attacks very easily. It will take you 1 try I guarantee you

[@manuelito1233]

@@CorXtin_III or three tries like me cos i get impatient and STILL guess when i pause LOL

[@nickX64]

You don't even need to pause you can just go into Tactical Mode and time is slowed to 1/100th speed

[@Cloud-dk4vz]

If you do this in Hardmode, its also an Amazing xp Farm

[@CrispiiBacon]

Question, I’m doing this but after a while I noticed the amount of xp and ap are getting lower and lower, I have not beaten the game I’m just on chapter 9

[@Primalliquid92]

AP shouldnt change but EXP degrades when you outlevel mobs

[@CrispiiBacon]

Ok cool thanks

[@michaelsch6824]

the better spot is in nibel where you fight the killerbees, the beequeen bring back the killerbees over and over again

[@method316tical2]

thats only for xp, doesnt save the ap

[@E_Gfree]

How do you manage mana though?

[@wensonchang6077]

not sure why you don't just do sea horses in the coral region. they give 24 ap per fight and all you do is hit triangle to restart the fight. no running, no fast travel to reset.

[@devinari.x]

Wish I started my ap farming before going right into hard mode lol

[@JBgolden]

So you mentioned going back to the Grasslands Simulator fight to farm ap for the higher valued materia. Would that be faster than this method?

[@Primalliquid92]

only if you working on just mastering 1-2 materia, if you want to bulk master then this method is VASTLY better

[@NhanNguyen-ex9hy]

simulator can applied to 3 character only and 1 had to equip with the chocobo bracer, so you cant convert time materia to gil as much as this guide, do whatever suit your play style

[@Wavi3Treey]

Guess i been doing it the hard way. Cosmo canyon intel 2 in the simulator gets you about 2,000 per. Did all the way to 60 before chp 12

[@awilywolf]

Don't think it's 100 AP for all 4 encounters. I'm chapter 12 level 43, right before soft point-of-no-return. Looks like I get 7 AP-6 AP-7 AP-7 AP following your sequence. That's no better than standard mob beating. Plus, it's boring as hell. Just beat the game, come back, and try with the beefier gains after clear.

[@Rhys-Lightning]

Cool, but I'm getting 78AP per round when you've said 100. Is this the correct number? With AP-Up it's 156 per round (double) on those 5 particular ones, but 100 vs 78 is quite the difference at 22% less than what you're saying. If this is still the best run then that's it, I guess

[@GreatDan786]

Do i have to complete the main story or just reach chapter 12? Again thanks for the vid primal

[@Primalliquid92]

completing the game gives you these numbers, not completing the game it would still be the best method, just wouldnt be hitting these numbers

[@amaterasu_xo]

How much Magnify materias can you get in rebrith?

[@ryanschmidt3494]

2 I believe! Cait sith has one automatically then you get the other from Cosmo Canyon side quest

[@chani7464]

Is this the new game plus like select chapter?

[@unstoppableforcevsimmovabl1701]

This is what I’m talking about baby

[@jessetaylor4367]

So a blizzard linked with swiftcast will stack with a separate blizzard linked with magnify?

[@PhoenixLex]

Yes. I went further and linked another 2 ice materias with HP Absorb and MP Absorb on the same person just to see if it works, and it does. Meaning you can set it up so that a cast of Blizzard is fast, heals HP+MP and hits all enemies. It's great but slots are probably better used for other stuff, it'll have its niche uses. You need 8 slots to do this.

[@sparkVII]

Thank you

[@renrafael8673]

Thank you so much! At least there’s no need for much grinding after what happened with Remake to Rebirth where save files don’t matter. I actually upgraded everyone with their own materia in preparation for part 2, but at least with part 3, we all know this won’t matter

[@coubo8367]

It's more for Hard Mode content, Brutal and Legendary Chadley's Mission.

[@Katashi-_-]

Are u playing on hard mode for this?

[@ZEHAHAHA9697]

No

[@DaithiSan]

Does difficulty affect how much AP/Exp you earn?

[@wingedbullets]

My guess is yes and going to a harder mode. he doenst mention to get these numbers he finished the game already and is going back to older chapters. So basically finish game, go back to this chapter do this on a harder mode gives you these numbers. Though even before finishing the game this is one of the faster methods just not as crazy as this on post game.

[@Primalliquid92]

difficulty is on easy and i do mention its postgame towards the end of the video and your numbers will be lower if you have not finished the game yet and even pre postgame its still the fastest
