Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Ultimate Hard Mode Build Guide Characters Gear And Materia

[@Game2590]

Elemental + Fire and Ice is perfectly fine to use, it only applies the one that is weak, if an enemy is strong to fire it switches to dealing exclusively ice damage.

[@Jburneyjr]

Right I was about to say the same

[@ForzaTerra89]

That’s interesting to know as it’s not written in the game. I’ve been using it defensively as seems like it can’t backfire on you and fire seems reasonably common

[@SamoIsKing]

Could you use two elemental materia on the same weapon with the other linked with Lightning and Wind?

[@thomasdiamond8343]

@@SamoIsKing no iirc the game takes whatever is linked to the leftmost elemental materia. So if you have both and fire/ice are on the left they will be what your weapon uses

[@nadilenebudski]

Fun fact, if you use a cushion to rest at a chocobo stop, it heals both HP and MP on hard mode.

[@Blizz4rd92]

holy shit, that's a game changer, thank you!

[@DekkarJr]

and their only 250 gil a pop xD and easy to make in the item thingy too!

[@michealfisher2887]

hero!!

[@kawaiibatman]

NO WAY Thanks A LOT

[@TheAuron32]

Update: still works after a few game patches, feeling like it might be intentional or hard coded to be tough to remove the MP healing.

[@armysoldier0079]

Also if you are managing fights but spending too much MP in main areas, have one of your non active 3 members have a healing materia and the HP>MP swap materia and put on weapon with most health bonus’. It will all convert to MP, so the character will have like 60 HP but 6000+ MP to heal your party between fights 😏 Their health won’t matter if they aren’t being used, so if you have to use them or just want to swap your party, then when you swap the materia back only their HP will be low which can either be healed or rest stop anywhere and back to normal. Just go to chocobo bench to fill the MP to max after slotting the HP>MP and enjoy saving all of your main party’s MP for fights only. Will also allow you to use more spells etc without as much MP regeneration needed.

[@stevenvegh7964]

This is brilliant, nice tip

[@WizzyTheDizzy]

Thats a great tip.

[@chazclark86]

Outstanding tip btw!

[@dildonicplague]

Genius

[@nathanking5137]

You can make cushions and use them at chocobo stops for full HP & MP so it's not really needed in most areas. Definitely good tip for dungeons.

[@hardcoor17]

Dude, your FF walkthroughs are my favorite on the internet. I’ve been using them for years, for multiple FF games. Love this stuff, keep it coming!!

[@Qirei1221]

ATB stagger doesn’t work like you said it does. It only works for the person that staggers the enemy. So for example if cloud and tifa both have atb stagger materia equipped and tifa staggers the enemy she is the only one that gets a atb increase and not cloud even tho they both have atb stagger materia equipped.

[@acespider7781]

I noticed that if you give a character you do not use at all, give them hp mp swap matiria that way you can have pretty much infinite mp to heal the group with that character outside of battle.

[@CBarzilla]

I would make a small argument that MP Up isn't entirely necessary since Chocobo Benches do, in fact, restore MP. Just use a cushion. I stocked 100 Cushions when I started my Hard Mode playthrough. Never ran out of MP once on a single character. Go through a hard fight > Teleport to Chocobo Bench > Rest with Cushion > Profit.

[@fouracegaming4724]

As someone who hasn't beaten rhe game yet can someone confirm this for me Ps. I'm on chapter 13

[@dewanewelch1744]

@@fouracegaming4724 this is very much true.

[@Checkmate_Bro7]

Even in hard mode?

[@kanemello]

During most hard mode fights that are tough and require lots of MP, you're usually in a dungeon or story area where fast travel is locked and standard benches with no cushion options are provided. The cushion method helps with overworld enemies like Midgardsormr or random battles but it won't help in the multi hour dungeons like the Temple of the ancients

[@beastslayer8729]

Honestly that kind of... ruins it. We aren't supposed to be able to use items, so I am unsure why they allowed us to use cushions. Maybe it's a bug or an oversight?

[@fredericmertz1469]

I cleared hard mod glass canon style with magic+swift cast+mp absorb+hp absorb+magnify. Yes it use 8 slots, but with 2 atb at combat start, it's just Ga spell spam. You get more Mp than you use and for bosses just swap the magic materia involved. (all of this on yuffie or cloud, and aerith with 1st strike=> ward help with additional free GA cast )

[@elisehermann6094]

Are you using one sole element in this build (or maybe the two for one magic materias?)

[@the_bandicoot4801]

Pair it with genji gloves and aeriths ga spells do like 20k dmg while giving u back mp

[@Cossieuk]

HP absorb paired with Enemy Skills materia, the use plasma discharge. Every time you fill an ATB bar you will do some AOE damage and get healed. On Yuffie this is a good source of healing as she can get ATB really quickly

[@piphead]

Do u put this materia in ur armour or defence, does it matter which way they are linked together?

[@mimcduffee86]

@@piphead Doesn't matter which slot it's on. It'll heal for like 80-100 per enemy in melee.

[@moogleboy]

Cloud. Disorder, a single hit of Attack, Swap to Operator mode. Repeat infinitely.

[@SSJ_Derp]

If you’re running Yuffie with HP Absorb + Enemy Skill, you can absolutely wreck mobs of enemies with the following build. Give her a mastered First Strike and then either the Chocoking’s Cape (so she starts every fight with two ATB) or the Speed Demon Keychain (so she builds ATB faster during the fight). At the start of the fight, have someone cast Haste on her and then have Yuffie use her clone ability and set up Plasma Discharge. Then you just throw her weapon and mash square, and make sure to spend her ATB as it fills up. The AOE damage from Plasma Discharge will be triggered twice every time she fills a bar, and you’ll absorb HP from both of them. For enemies with higher health you can use United Refocus and watch the frame rate drop as the whole screen fills up with lightning.

[@Amocoru]

You're really underutilizing Yuffie here. She is a magical attack monster. All of that magic gear should be on her for magical attacks and healing. She crushes.

[@Mitsunari4Gunz]

I don't think he really understands Yuffie and some of her plasma discharge builds that can literally carry fights.

[@ForzaTerra89]

@@Mitsunari4GunzI gave her the enemy skill materia but I’ve just been using her to cast the healing spell

[@Axlradleigh]

I’ve been using a Turtle Death from Above build. Barret, Aerith, Tifa/Yuffie (doesn’t matter which). Barrett starts by buffing up the team (manaward, haste, whatever else you want), lifesaver, and steel skinned, then swapping over to Tifa/Yuffie to bash on enemies while Aerith sits on the side with comet+synergy. Just rains destruction constantly while everyone is essentially invincible. Just have Barret use chakra every once in a while when his HP starts getting low. This got me through all Brutal challenges before I even went through hard mode proper and hit lvl 70.

[@miguelbastida2899]

Do a video pls! Or write down your setup.

[@Modioman69]

Sounds fun but how do you resolve mana issues for Barrett if he’s always pre buffing team? Or do you just use cushions at choco-stops?

[@Axlradleigh]

@@Modioman69 I don’t pre buff every fight, just the combat simulator which has mp refresh every fight and for certain bosses

[@Modioman69]

@@Axlradleigh Gotcha thanks!

[@vexcarius7100]

Same. Pray and chakra is imba with Barett. Even in Remake, it’s a nice tactic. He just sucks at the MP department.

[@DekkarJr]

My most important materia combos have been using the blue auto-cast spell materia with the Revive materia. I put it on Barret cus he's super tanky and least likely to die suddenly so he can immediately auto res a member that dies but you can put it on anyone of course. Comet + Synergy is really good too. Time materia with Magnify to haste the entire party immediately, same with another defensive spell, I find just having regen on the entire party to be very useful if you can spare the mp in hard mode. ohhhhhh and Also: HP absorb Materia + Enemy Skill and use Plasma Discharge and you gain about 100 hp when it goes off. And don't be afraid to bust out Soothing Breeze for some quick HP (also a part of Enemy Skill materia )

[@farret8848]

I have found that red works really well as a supp tank. put provoke on him leave him be and play as the other characters. By the time you need to use his abilities he will have half to full vengeance which might as well be considered as a health pool to give to allies.

[@DekkarJr]

red with barret would be a stronk party.

[@pumpkinpie1509]

Im a bit old to this video but a great place to farm xp is the muscle head colosseum combat challange devil may care desperados . If you use cloud and tifa you should be able to beat it in less the 15 seconds and you should get around plus 50 AP each time you do it and you just repeat it also equip the chocabo armaband with a lv up meteria so you can get 6 times the boost you get the armband after the race with the chocabo sage obviously you still gotta grind but this makes it a lot quicker hope this helps anyone.

[@shane1489]

I’m hoping they improve the combat setup. Saving character builds with armor/ weapon material is greatly needed.

[@MrNinosan]

If you use Elemental + Fire/Ice or Lightning/Wind, the game actually chose the element that the enemy is weak against, so those double materias are great. Been using my whole way to my Platinum. One on Cloud, one on Yuffie.

[@RandomBucket]

Pro tip for hard mode. You can recover MP at repaired chocobo rest stops 😉. Perfect for mowing through the chapter 12 side quests.

[@bahamut416]

Now you know damn well 'ketran' isn't how you pronounce that lol. Aerith ain't the last of the ketra.

[@F4R4D4Y]

TY, just what I needed. I thought the way I was building was the right track, and you confirmed this. Thumbs 👍 up!

[@Brett1692]

I deal with the mp issue by running synergy and mp absorb materias. Link both with the same magic (lightning for example, switch depending on weaknesses), then every time tifa uses an atb bar, aerith will cast a free thunder and gain mana to use for healing, or other spells

[@DekkarJr]

yea! ^_^ I use Comet tho LOL and theres only 1 xD

[@RanEncounter]

Box crusher amulet and Clouds final weapon have the ability to heal HO and MP every time you stagger an enemy. It is super easy to just keep your MP at max with these.

[@mikeyrayanderson]

The fire and ice and lightning and wind materias linked to elemental material both target the weakness. So you can actually equip it and deal weakness to both types without changing your set up. Super useful.

[@YoshiDadum]

Aside from the treasure chest in the Gi cave, how would you get more celestial bangles for everyone to equip?

[@RayTamal]

Im also looking for an answer to this

[@corykepler5172]

Me too

[@LongHoang88884]

Another big tip is to use stop on them once u stagger em. If u time it correctly u can stop the staggar bar twice . Giving u time to build up the stagger% to 250+.Then with genji glove and infinity's end nuking can end most fights unless they have a hp threshhold. But u r giving up the 50 vit and 50 spirit i go a more offensive build. Love nuking wit genji glove at 300% stagger for big numbers. I would go with the genji glove build with bosses that dont have hp threshhold so u only have to stagger em once n end it. Then having to stagger em multiple times. Another good purple materia to go with atb assist,atb stagger is skill master for even more atb for 2 to 3 infinity ends during that stagger wit stop.

[@xRagingxDemonx]

This build is most likely mandatory for the final boss. Game forces you to use every character. Some parts took longer for me since i don't use Red XIII or Cait Sith. 1 thing though. Elemental Materia only uses one Element for damage. Or at least if an enemy absorbs one of the elements it won't use it for attacking. It seems to prioritize whatever it's weak to. As when fighting phoenix with Fire/Ice materia w/ Elemental on Yuffie it doesn't absorb at all, but if i use Fire ninjutsu it will.

[@IsraTheBlack]

You can't use 2 elemental materia's on your armor to protect you against all elements. Only one works.

[@jhustmyles275]

I'm pretty sure the Twin-Element Materia work that way though, since it seems to when slotted in weapons. Or is it different?

[@NokoFace]

@@jhustmyles275 It does work. You can elemental materia > fire/ice or lightning/wind and it protects against both.

you have fire and ice and also wind and lightning which are twin magic Materia so having two elemental Materia works

Really basic build for survival, but I was wondering, do you have 2 Heal materia on Cloud and Tifa? Because you don't mention them, what do you use inon them? Reinforcement Materias? I was trying something with the chain magic + meteor materia + spam command attacks. what are your thoughts on it?

[@dustyconrad3255]

So sorry to do this. You'd think that Aerith's race would be pronounced the same as the 2 best Cetran armors in the game. Oh Aerith is Ketran?

[@charliewild2367]

He's terrible for mispronouncing things in games... God knows why. I mean he pronounced Burmecia with a K and butchers pronunciations all the time. He was ripped to shreds for it. You'd think he'd learn after that combine with the Cetra is obviously a soft C... You just have to suspend your desire to punch him through the screen and go with it. He's not the best really for gameplay, he's more of a grinder. So, FF8 and Remake and Rebirth he doesn't have much to offer. Christ that sounds mean. I like him, he's a really nice guy, but I think the Birmingham accent just inspires hate.

I would look up "Valkyrian Bangle" as a replacement for Celestial bangle. You can only get one of them though I believe.

[@AngelCakeTom]

I want to point out that elemental materia only works with one link on armor, you can't use all 3 on one characters armour for multiple absorbs only the most recent one you set will be active. On cloud HP absorb materia linked to enemy skill materia is a must have, use plasma discharge at the start of every encounter for an AOE damage attack that heals you every time you fill an ATB bar is just far too good not to have. Also warding linked to poison/petrify gives you 2 resistences and access to Quake spells i feel like its another must have.

[@mimcduffee86]

Its solid for early game or with aoe. but it doesn't heal enough when hits are doing 2-3k each.

I will say its up to people but dont sleep on barrett, not even for tank purposes (for which he is goated) but bonus round + 3 atb focused shot is so goated for pressured enemies, significantly moreso than focused thrust almost an instant stagger lol, that with his own ability (albeit once per battle) to increase his atb and just normally how fast his atb charges with overcharge and so forth for synergy abilities to regularly activate triple atb is a masterpiece. Bro was clutch with Gilgamesh and clutch for me in hard mode so far (on chap 7)

[@NexusofNuance]

If you're having a hard time perfect blocking attacks and are dying often equip him with raise, equip someone else with reraise and give it to him at start of battle.

All bosses on hard mode seem to be relatively ok but tough at start of the fight, then have a phase shift of sorts and go berserk and wipe you unless you have the counter cheese.

Bosses basically immune until you stagger them then if you do too much damage game says no no no and a padlock shows up on the health bar for the rest of dps on that stagger. So lame man.

I see that you have Crystal Gloves on Tifa, but why? Tifa is far from a magic caster, and is way better with her physical attacks. Wouldn't the Kaiser Knuckles be best?

Literally the questions I came here to ask lmao

[@tserdar6121]

Must i do all the side quesst again ? Or can i rush the story only ?

[@AnaverdGaiden]

Where the heck do you get the third Magnify? I've cleared all side quests and normal Chadley simulators and I only have two of them. Is the third one from the brutal challenges or something? Everywhere online says you get all 3 from things I've already done, and they each say something different.

Its a great video for someone who has never really played before but tbh you talked briefly about 7 characters not really any strategies to using them effectively. You talked about 2 accessories and mentioned a couple others and you talked about 7 materia. I mean if anything the video should be called basic build guide not ULTIMATE HARD MODE BUILD GUIDE. Seems like it was clickbait to me

There are two ribbons in the game and getting one of them isn't that hard you just have to beat the hardest 3D brawler character at the gold saucer.

[@TrippleBPlays]

Hard for me. I don't know if I will ever master that game

[@wood1066]

@@TrippleBPlays You can pause the game right when your opponent makes a move to easily dodge their attacks.

Where do you get prayer materia from?

[@innoalpha]

Where to get the 3rd magnify materia?

[@Sctn187]

How do you get the 3rd elemental and magnify. I just beat the game and have all side quests and mini games done except the muscle colosseum and the "secret boss" stuff.

Primal were is the gil USE video man ?

[@RenanTheBoss21]

just wish you show all the materia or have at least a list so we can see

[@Primalliquid92]

i do show you all the materia and tell you exactly what each person is equipped with

[@maxxxymooo]

what happened to the Dragons Dogma 2 video lmfao

[@stephenbennett498]

Where is the 3rd Magnify materia that isn't the Nibelheim one? Got Cait Siths and the quest one. Can't see anywhere on the net that says there is a 3rd obtainable one. 🤔

[@Primalliquid92]

coliseum or chadley VR, cant remember which though but its one the challenges that appears only after you beat gilgamesh

[@coffeecamperin8712]

the third is from Brutal Challenge: Hellions’ Intonement (Level 70) = Magnify Materia ★ (unlocked after beating Gilgamesh)

[@DomPeart-u5j]

Haven't seen any new videos recently primal... Hope all is ok??
