I literally fuaght him for 30 minutes and used like every potion in this dude. I got him very low but I couldnt stay alive long enough to beat him since Aeirth died and I used every single revive
Captain Cartman after my third try dying to this thing my son asked me what was going on... I told him I cannot beat the hell house.... he said but you never cannot beat a boss.... I told him I know it’s been a long time but that hard bosses like this used to be normal in video games.
Like most games once you figure out the patterns he won't seem that hard.... I was in the same boat.. I was like "wtf? My sword is bouncing of this guy... this sucks 😡". Now Hell house is my whore house 😂
Whenever the house entered god mode, immediately spam its elemental weakness on either arms, and the barrier will go away and you can blast it to hell with aerith Dont forget to place the Double cast wand also, its gonna hurt him so much bring attacked with spell twice
When it's electrical use wind attacks. When it's on fire use ice attacks. When it's green(wind) use thunder attacks. When it's icey use fire attacks. That's basically how you defeat it. Even if you don't want those materia as your main source of materia even if they aren't even high level versions of the materia use it anyway it's extremely effective despite the level of the spell, it's what helps you win the fight. And i suggest shiva as your summon since hell house always gets it's shit pushed in when it comes to ice.
I have no idea how I was able to beat him on my first try but it took me almost 30 minutes to finally beat him. Thank the lord cause if I lost I would’ve probably never fought him again
@@Syuss4 haha this is a super old comment, but if you have the right materia equipped and all your weapons upgraded the fight is super easy. My first time playing I was a dingus and didn’t have any idea what I was doing 😩
I just died a bunch of times last night and didn't even realize the time that went by. The first attempt was like 30 minutes. 😩😩😂 Humbled myself and looked for strategies today before diving back in today. I feel like I'm ready now. Kinda ready.😂 Thanks. Update: beat it on the first try trying out your strategy. What a difference. Didn't even use one Phoenix down during the fight either. Oh yeah.
You can also use sleep to stop the house from consuming your characters. Also if you’re a lil late to use sleep the attack will get cancel and you will be spit out faster than usual. Sleep is the best recommendation for me.
Apparently the best strat is to use cloud as more of a healer than DPS and put most elemental materia on aerith since her mp should be higher than clouds naturally. Still carry enough ether to get you through the phases. Don’t let MP drop passed 12. Heal as much as possible. Don’t let health drop passed half. Match the houses element with the opposite and keep distance between you and the house. Don’t do melee damage until the house is staggered and for summon use chocobo and moogle since the element damage is neutral aside from Chocobo’s wind element it does a lot of damage. Make sure to have auto-cure materia equipped on cloud.
This almost ruined the game for me, 18 hours in with a very padded out Story and they have a boss battle that spam attacks a move you can’t block or dodge… I put it on easy and beat it otherwise I’d have quit and deleted the game… I don’t seem to have all the stuff you do so was stupidly difficult
I always thought that the house enemy was kinda a silly enemy given the tone and setting of the original Final Fantasy 7. But to my surprise in the remake they actually made it pretty badass
It was a random encounter boss fight 😂 i remember just like beating it and blasting it and all of a sudden it transformed and started ramming my characters to death and I was like "wtf is this house bullshit". Tonight, when I encountered the house in the remake for the first time, I felt like I knew what it must have been like to hear fireworks after serving in Vietnam
My Notes: -Keep bio on house -Just use level 1 magic to stagger -Auto revival earrings -Block chairs for atb - don't underestimate clouds usefulness and damage after avoiding certain moves, proper weakness hits or even countering -Triple slash for tonbs, you can hit them all before they get up (don't get stabbed) -Save atb, summon and limit for when the cutters join the fight. Use her second limit to negate add damage, use best non elemental summon for dmg, use clouds second limit when you see an opening. Good luck 😁👍
THANK YOU OH MY GOSH!!! This boss is so annoying but thanks to this tutorial it only took me around an hour and a whole lot of dedication to beat it 😭 i cant even put into words how frustrated i was before i watched this.
Ik I’m super late for something like this but I honestly can’t thank you enough man. I just started playing this game and I love it. I was having a horrible time at first and barely making it and on my first try I got him super low but died. Then afterwards I just said screw it and looked up this video and I can’t thank you enough with how much this helped me especially since I didn’t have any clue what his phases meant so thank you.
Took me a good number of prays, healing winds, and a Carbuncle summon to boot to beat this bad boy up! It was a tough fight, but it was the most challenging one I encountered thus far!
This dude gave me a hell of a fight. I watched my cousin play and apparently poison works so that's helpful! Also, from my experience, hitting the arms didn't seem to help, but I could be wrong. Aerith's basic attacks are so helpful because it builds ATB like crazy.
Nostradante i think in the 3rd last phase, I was able to cripple one of his arms, it doesn’t work much in 2nd phase for sure...still I died many times...I just really want to beat this monster already!
I went into this fight without knowing what this boss did so I only had bliz on cloud and thunder on aerith. Lost after 30 minutes but almost got him! When he went into flying-hell-God-house-whatever mode, he instakilled my party with one slam attack.
I beat him pretty easily and also I barely used my mana here too!! Here's the tip: if the enemy gets 'pressured' use Focused thrust so you can stagger the enemy pretty quickly!! Use Aerith for damage her 'socerous storm' atb damage or pray when hp gets lower, arcane ward if you really wanna use spells
If you hit him with the second level fire spell during hospitality he’ll spit the person. This was done inside the zone that does double spells so it may be two hits but it gets him to spit the inactive character out relatively quick.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH IT ACTUALLY WORKED I AM SO GLAD I DIED LIKE 30 TIMES IN THIS BOSS FIGHT TODAY AND I SPENT HOURS OR WEEKS TRYING TO BEAT THIS HELL HOUSE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS GUIDE YESSSSSSSS
This is the only boss that I switched to "easy" for lol i just kept getting railed by his seemingly unavoidable attacks and too many spells lost to chair salvos lol easy was a walk in the park though
Wish I watched this before fighting this mad house, basically had to button mash my way to victory after fitting all the wrong materias. Thank god I beat it in the first attempt, took about 30 mins or so and expanding countless phoenix down.
The first boss where I felt like it was a soulsborne/sekiro/code vein boss that I'd be fighting for hours. Luckily got him after about 10 times, but definitely the first REAL challenge. Loving this reboot so far!
OH MY GOD, THANK YOU!! i'm that kind of player that doesn't care about element type counter, and just tanking everything. and i forgot theres even an element thing in this game. when i encounter this thing i rage quit and decide to left the game unplayed for 2 months maybe ?. and then i started playing again, getting desperate and your video pop up on my youtube, its a huge help, i never known that FF 7 has a battle this difficult, and require strategies. i thought all enemy are equal easy. anyway it helped me finished the game, thanks alot man !
5:26 thank you so so much without this guide i would never have made it through and i would have started to hate this game i gave up but decided to teu again and look up a walk through for it then stumbled upon this video i subscribes to you and when ever i need help i will go to your channel 😁
Defeated it in 30-40 minutes at the first try, I only used ice spells (I didn't pay attention to the windows at all), Shiva and melee attacks. After watching this video I felt dumb.
Thanks for the video man, I fought this beast last night and I used so many of my healing items and my materia was all wrong. I beat it but I wasn’t happy with the result, and it also took like 35 minutes. I fought it again tonight after watching this video and I beat it within 10 minutes and didn’t use ANY items since my materia was properly utilized. Such a difference.
Just beat this damned house today at first try to my surprise and only revived twice and an elixir(zero regret there as I've been hoarding items)...interesting to see this guide afterward as I still feel clueless in the battle system at times (partly cause I never got used to blocking/parrying in this game). Instead of looking at the colours of the house for elemental indication, I was using touchpad regularly(after assessing at the beginning) to see its ever-changing weakness whenever I'm about to cast an elemental spell...after I learned the lesson the hard way when it absorbed a double Blizzara from Aerith *facepalm*
Whenever his windows change colour I immediately cast the opposing element and by the time it hits him EVERYTIME he changes his element to something eles and I mean EVERYTIME
@@VentusSGN Or anything but the element the house is "on". If you cast an ice magic when hell house is on ice, it will absorb it and heal itself. This is why using Shiva and Ifrit is pretty double edged sword: if chance is with you both of them can bust the house. But if your timing is off, congrats: you just gave the hell house a free renovation. I've never seen summons yet to heal it but I've seen one unlucky soul to mess up with timing and heal house 1500 hp in third phase.
D B I was real confused on this, the Assess said he’s vulnerable to stagger after god mode, so after his god mode ended I tried bashing him w Cloud, but it seemed like almost every time his sword just bounced off... when exactly can Cloud hit & not hit him?
I got my ass handed to me the first time. Watched your video and came back with a vengeance ! Beat him in like 10 min or less! Thank you. That was normal mode.. I’m not looking to Hard mode. Damn platinum trophy 😭
This stage is tough as iron, I never used cures or healing items before that fight, when I got there I beat it in my first try but took like 2 hours or so and a lottttttt of healing items and Mp cures 🤣🤣 belive me or not I used cloud the whole time and defeated him eventually with him doing 25 to 4 damage in hits 🤣🤣 plus whatever his girl friend did of damage. I did it on level 21.
Ahhh I didn't realize to use the difference elements, didn't pay attention to how it looked. Just used Aerith to do all the fighting and many Phoenix downs 😅
I was so angry after getting him down to third phase only to get killed, but after I thought about it, it was refreshing having an actual challenging boss in a game
Just finished this boss. completely blind. I started the fight in horror seeing that my cloud had fire linked to his weapon attacks. Needless to say the whole boss took me close to half an hour because cloud was a healer for the whole fight LOL
It generally doesn’t hit that hard, but it absolutely forces you to micromanage between offence and defence. The real key to this for me was working on staggering timing between its god mode. Not the hardest FF boss but not exactly a walk in the park either.
I beat the house first try but it was Hard as hell my strategy was to hit it from a distance with aerith soul train and make sure cloud has the skill raise ! Its much better than using Phoenix downs because you get you more HP when revived you will die a lot so try to keep both cloud and aerith alive ! This is a battle of endurance so don't get in its face too much and start slashing keep your distance stay healed and attack when you have the opportunity.
Thank you so much for this. I was getting the hang of it but seems like I wasn’t doing any damage at all with elements or anything. Now I’ve reassured myself now with this 😅😂
This boss fight was not hard just freaking annoying (too many things going on at the same time, and very little guidance as to what to do against it), it took me 1 hour and for the final try 3 phoenix down and 2 ether; it had nothing to do with skill, it was all about trying to figure out what the hell it was doing. It felt like the developers were trying to make a MMO boss fight when they came up with this boss fight... it was a badly designed fight, not fun at all.
I think this fight was awesomely designed. Hell House had a lot of potential in the original game, and was barely used. Now they fully developed it. A very challenging battle.
Ursa Major It’s not hard at all if you pay attention to the visual cues it gives off and react accordingly (especially in the 2nd and 3rd phase). When God House disappears, Hell House almost always will present the next element that you need to counter it with when they attempt to attack. You just have to be more mindful of managing your ATB and be quick to pull the trigger. When you do, it often presents you an opportunity where he will be “Pressured” so that you can stagger him faster. Also by the time you get to the Hell House. You should have every elemental materia (Fire, Thunder, Blizzard, Aero) needed to counter his element change. You don’t need more than two characters to beat this boss.
When the house swallows someone, take controll over that character and start spamming normal attacks. The house will shake and take damage and will receive a larger sum of damage when it finally spits you out. Dont bother healing, The house doesnt damage you if you are damaging it from inside with the regular square button attack. Also. No other attacks, abilities, skills can be made from inside of the house, only regular square attacks... I cant believe nobody else figured this out This video is more than a year old.
something that helped me before going into this fight was stocking up of ethers. My strategy was to give Aerith healing materia and whenever the house went into god mode i'd have cloud switch to punisher mode and focus the arms, if he took damage i would use a cura but since i stocked up on ether i could do this all fight no problem. I used cross slash whenever i i got it (On the arms). When you get Aerith's limit use her healing wind, its super helpful and you get a unique voice line from the announcers. For all the other attacks i would just avoid, so your best bet imo is going for the arms in god mode. Hope this helped!
If the house sucks in a character make sure it’s not the one with thunder. Then hit the house with thunder and they’ll spit out the character without too much damage.
Didn't wanna look this up until I beat him. Finally got him, and now I'm here. Fucking knew I was doing something wrong. Couldn't figure out what Assess was trying to tell me about when to use different element attacks. Played the whole fight thinking his pressure gauge couldn't be filled outside of breaking his arms. Fuckin hell, it would have been so much easier!
That’s an arguable boss design for a story mission. Basically, if you hop in there without the right materias, like I did, you’re screwed and you will never stagger him. You’ll end up spending all your ether on Curaga while waiting for a “window” to strike again with melee or unique attacks. So even after assessing it and clearly understanding what to do, I just didn’t have the right materias.... so it took me 20 minutes and a lot of running. Beat it first try in the end but that wasn’t fun, cause I just couldn’t really fight. I surely hope they patch that or add a clue before hand that the next fight will be heavy on magic (and no, having Aerith with you is not a good clue). With 5 wretched materia slots (at least most likely when you reach chapter 9), you don’t fool around with all the magics. Again first boss that wasn’t fun to fight (for me at least) and I hope that they fix this before new players experience this.
Going to try and give this another go tonight. Last time i was playing, i was also slightly drunk, so that impared me too. Was enjoying the game for everything else that day, until to that point.
If was a long battle but Aerith’ arcana didn’t the truck. FYI. The entrance and exit areas can protect you from god mode and the house charges. He can steal attack you but not as much damage as in the actual arena. If a character is in the house. Hit it with magic to spit them out. Play tag team. He will go after the character you are using. Get cloud and Aerith on opposite sides. Continue to which it up.
I’m glad there was this fight! Reminds me of that big spider like boss blocking the way near the end of the orig ff7! That when I learnt the cloud limit level 3
Finally, someone who knows how the weaknesses work in this fight! Also, keeping Barrier up on your characters is SUUUUPER helpful in this fight! Also also, when he's doing a Barrier change he becomes weak to Physical attacks!
Man, I feel like an idiot now because I never even noticed the elemental change in the windows. I have only fought it once, but that fight was just a long grind, and I didnt stagger it a single time... Thanks for the info though! I'm going to try having Aerith drop her double cast ring (forget the actual name of the ability) in the center of the ring next time and try to nuke it down. On a separate note, I found the Gaurd materia very useful in this fight on Cloud. Those chairs filled up his ATB meter really quickly, and I managed to completely fill his proficiency with that sword about halfway through the fight!
When Hell House inhales you, simply use any ATB move on it to make it release the character it's holding. You can also roll away when its trying to suck you in to avoid it altogether.
I one shot this Boss(took like 20 minutes). I just wanted to see what was really going on. I basically attacked with mostly Aerith and whenever he went to the Air or through Chairs I switched to Cloud(better Dodge and I never blocked lol). Fight wasn't hard. Just Tedious if you don't know what was going in lol. Aerith was great. I think I only used 3 Megapotions and 3 Phoenix. The rest was all pray and Healing Wind. The really bad thing I had happen was losing Shiva outright because I used Her as soon as The House Enter stage 2 Animation started.
Just beat it tonight Took lots of trysts but I had strong cure magic fire and ice did the trick liek you said It you can also take advantage of were the boxes are. It ca hardly attack you there. It's also good for avoiding electric based attacks
Wow I was missing Aero, shiva and fat chocobal. I only had one summon, but what I noticed was you can put the house to sleep sometimes! ATB materia and dodge materia is great too
The boss fight that made me appreciate Aerith's abilities lol
Wheel of Time?
It just made me yell alot
I fought the whole thing with out using here
MMMMMMMM I STILL HAVENT DEFETED IT YET 😍

Well im not sure if you ever tried to fight a house.
But those sons of bitches have a pretty tough build, their quite solid

Should've used aerith cure instead
Its been a long time since Ive been stuck on a boss fight in a video game... holy moly this thing is hard

@@HomeDefender30 It certainly wasn't the case in original FF7.
CerpinTxt87 never said it was.... cover materia counter counter counter counter counter = time to go make a sandwich.
When Hell House uses Hospitality use Aerith’s Soul Drain. It interrupts the attack and spits Cloud out
I used the opposite element spell and that also seems to work
Nice
Thanks for the tip
Whenever the house entered god mode, immediately spam its elemental weakness on either arms, and the barrier will go away and you can blast it to hell with aerith
Dont forget to place the Double cast wand also, its gonna hurt him so much bring attacked with spell twice
Good advice, thanks
Thank u so much
Wait what there is a double cast wand

when does it enter god mode? how can we see that
GUYS! I just discovered aeriths soul drain does a ton of damage even in it's second form!

man this house is fucking annoying bro the FF7 creators messed up by throwing us in fight after fight
Wtf is second form?
@@IanM92 the second form of the boss when it becomes invincible to a lot of different elements

I was losing so much it sucked. Then I saw this comment and beat it in 15 mins instead of 30 again. Thank you.

3:29 You can heal your character while there inside hell house
David Smith i used cloud’s furia on the house while the house swallowed eirith thats when its most vulnerable
Yea i posted the same thing. I was hoping someone else noticed that
@Muhsin Mohammed i believe thats just cloud finishing a big hit from punisher mode, i dont think its anything more
Hit it with the opposing element to make it spit the other character out

5:26 thank you so so much without this guide i would never have made it through and i would have started to hate this game i gave up but decided to teu again and look up a walk through for it then stumbled upon this video i subscribes to you and when ever i need help i will go to your channel 😁
Defeated it in 30-40 minutes at the first try, I only used ice spells (I didn't pay attention to the windows at all), Shiva and melee attacks.
After watching this video I felt dumb.
Thanks for the video man, I fought this beast last night and I used so many of my healing items and my materia was all wrong. I beat it but I wasn’t happy with the result, and it also took like 35 minutes. I fought it again tonight after watching this video and I beat it within 10 minutes and didn’t use ANY items since my materia was properly utilized. Such a difference.
Just beat this damned house today at first try to my surprise and only revived twice and an elixir(zero regret there as I've been hoarding items)...interesting to see this guide afterward as I still feel clueless in the battle system at times (partly cause I never got used to blocking/parrying in this game).
Instead of looking at the colours of the house for elemental indication, I was using touchpad regularly(after assessing at the beginning) to see its ever-changing weakness whenever I'm about to cast an elemental spell...after I learned the lesson the hard way when it absorbed a double Blizzara from Aerith *facepalm*
Whenever his windows change colour I immediately cast the opposing element and by the time it hits him EVERYTIME he changes his element to something eles and I mean EVERYTIME
Gotta be quick. Save your ATB
@@VentusSGN Or anything but the element the house is "on". If you cast an ice magic when hell house is on ice, it will absorb it and heal itself. This is why using Shiva and Ifrit is pretty double edged sword: if chance is with you both of them can bust the house. But if your timing is off, congrats: you just gave the hell house a free renovation. I've never seen summons yet to heal it but I've seen one unlucky soul to mess up with timing and heal house 1500 hp in third phase.
Ventus SGN yea I smashed him the 4rth time I fought him after realising when I can properly physically hit him with cloud
D B I was real confused on this, the Assess said he’s vulnerable to stagger after god mode, so after his god mode ended I tried bashing him w Cloud, but it seemed like almost every time his sword just bounced off... when exactly can Cloud hit & not hit him?
Thank you so much for the walkthrough! I beat this boss in 10 minutes where before it took me 25 each try and I’d die.
I got my ass handed to me the first time. Watched your video and came back with a vengeance ! Beat him in like 10 min or less! Thank you.
That was normal mode.. I’m not looking to Hard mode. Damn platinum trophy 😭
he realeses 3 tonberrys in hard mode 😭
This stage is tough as iron, I never used cures or healing items before that fight, when I got there I beat it in my first try but took like 2 hours or so and a lottttttt of healing items and Mp cures 🤣🤣 belive me or not I used cloud the whole time and defeated him eventually with him doing 25 to 4 damage in hits 🤣🤣 plus whatever his girl friend did of damage. I did it on level 21.
Can't get enough of this love this game play
5:15 Use thunder will make it spit out your member.
What a guide!
I sibscribe!
Ahhh I didn't realize to use the difference elements, didn't pay attention to how it looked. Just used Aerith to do all the fighting and many Phoenix downs 😅
That’s also exactly what I did. This video is very helpful
Thanks to you I was able to beat it in the end. THANK YOU!😊
try using lighting when the house does his hospitality ability
It was super refreshing to experience a tough boss like this one. After an hour of getting spanked, I found your video. Thank you.
I was so angry after getting him down to third phase only to get killed, but after I thought about it, it was refreshing having an actual challenging boss in a game
Just finished this boss. completely blind. I started the fight in horror seeing that my cloud had fire linked to his weapon attacks.
Needless to say the whole boss took me close to half an hour because cloud was a healer for the whole fight LOL
It generally doesn’t hit that hard, but it absolutely forces you to micromanage between offence and defence. The real key to this for me was working on staggering timing between its god mode. Not the hardest FF boss but not exactly a walk in the park either.
Thanks for the tips. Makes me a little more hopeful going into this fight.
Fight it for 20-30 mins and pause to take a break you will be more refreshed than finish him off.
I beat the house first try but it was Hard as hell my strategy was to hit it from a distance with aerith soul train and make sure cloud has the skill raise ! Its much better than using Phoenix downs because you get you more HP when revived you will die a lot so try to keep both cloud and aerith alive !
This is a battle of endurance so don't get in its face too much and start slashing keep your distance stay healed and attack when you have the opportunity.
Honestly this helps me a lot on what strategies to use for this fight so thank you
Use sleep to cancel the attack. Works great if you time it.
THANK YOUUUU AFTER HOURS OF FIGHTING THAT SON OF A HOUSE I FINALLY DID IT
Thank you so much for this. I was getting the hang of it but seems like I wasn’t doing any damage at all with elements or anything. Now I’ve reassured myself now with this 😅😂
This boss fight was not hard just freaking annoying (too many things going on at the same time, and very little guidance as to what to do against it), it took me 1 hour and for the final try 3 phoenix down and 2 ether; it had nothing to do with skill, it was all about trying to figure out what the hell it was doing.
It felt like the developers were trying to make a MMO boss fight when they came up with this boss fight... it was a badly designed fight, not fun at all.
Ive lost soo much item for just this fight... Need to GILL up.then... Owhh my Ether....
I think this fight was awesomely designed. Hell House had a lot of potential in the original game, and was barely used. Now they fully developed it. A very challenging battle.
Ursa Major It’s not hard at all if you pay attention to the visual cues it gives off and react accordingly (especially in the 2nd and 3rd phase). When God House disappears, Hell House almost always will present the next element that you need to counter it with when they attempt to attack. You just have to be more mindful of managing your ATB and be quick to pull the trigger. When you do, it often presents you an opportunity where he will be “Pressured” so that you can stagger him faster.
Also by the time you get to the Hell House. You should have every elemental materia (Fire, Thunder, Blizzard, Aero) needed to counter his element change. You don’t need more than two characters to beat this boss.
As I fought, I found out that fat choboco is totally useless 😅😅😅
When the house swallows someone, take controll over that character and start spamming normal attacks. The house will shake and take damage and will receive a larger sum of damage when it finally spits you out. Dont bother healing, The house doesnt damage you if you are damaging it from inside with the regular square button attack. Also. No other attacks, abilities, skills can be made from inside of the house, only regular square attacks... I cant believe nobody else figured this out
This video is more than a year old.
I just beat the house on the first try, but damn I wish I would have known that ha
something that helped me before going into this fight was stocking up of ethers. My strategy was to give Aerith healing materia and whenever the house went into god mode i'd have cloud switch to punisher mode and focus the arms, if he took damage i would use a cura but since i stocked up on ether i could do this all fight no problem. I used cross slash whenever i i got it (On the arms). When you get Aerith's limit use her healing wind, its super helpful and you get a unique voice line from the announcers. For all the other attacks i would just avoid, so your best bet imo is going for the arms in god mode. Hope this helped!
If the house sucks in a character make sure it’s not the one with thunder. Then hit the house with thunder and they’ll spit out the character without too much damage.
Very helpful. For countering hospitality you dodge around the house, the pull is only in front of the house.
Ok… I only have 2 abilities, no Chocobo, never heard of Aurora. How did I get this far?
Thanks for this, Have lost days trying to beat this thing
Didn't wanna look this up until I beat him. Finally got him, and now I'm here. Fucking knew I was doing something wrong. Couldn't figure out what Assess was trying to tell me about when to use different element attacks. Played the whole fight thinking his pressure gauge couldn't be filled outside of breaking his arms.
Fuckin hell, it would have been so much easier!
Never had a problem killing it but good lord this fight is looooooong
You can use the corner in the entry way to shield you from some of it's attacks too.
It was really helpful... Thanks to you I make it, I haven't noticed about the elemental weaknesess of the house, thanks for the tips.
Because of you I’ve defeated this damn house😅😂
That’s an arguable boss design for a story mission. Basically, if you hop in there without the right materias, like I did, you’re screwed and you will never stagger him. You’ll end up spending all your ether on Curaga while waiting for a “window” to strike again with melee or unique attacks. So even after assessing it and clearly understanding what to do, I just didn’t have the right materias.... so it took me 20 minutes and a lot of running. Beat it first try in the end but that wasn’t fun, cause I just couldn’t really fight. I surely hope they patch that or add a clue before hand that the next fight will be heavy on magic (and no, having Aerith with you is not a good clue). With 5 wretched materia slots (at least most likely when you reach chapter 9), you don’t fool around with all the magics.
Again first boss that wasn’t fun to fight (for me at least) and I hope that they fix this before new players experience this.
Thanks for the vid. Will attempt this fight tmr. Hopefully I can finish it within a few tries. Haha
Thanks for the upload! I have trouble with the Hell House too.
This fight reminded me of a dark souls boss. Went in unprepared and without the right spells. Took almost 45 mins of chip damage to take it down.
Except im stuck with this piece of shit house with NO PM and i cant take the elevator back. Dark soul is not that stupid
You forgot to say he goes into god house every 5 minutes but I just kept putting him asleep.
Going to try and give this another go tonight. Last time i was playing, i was also slightly drunk, so that impared me too. Was enjoying the game for everything else that day, until to that point.
If was a long battle but Aerith’ arcana didn’t the truck. FYI. The entrance and exit areas can protect you from god mode and the house charges. He can steal attack you but not as much damage as in the actual arena.
If a character is in the house. Hit it with magic to spit them out. Play tag team. He will go after the character you are using. Get cloud and Aerith on opposite sides. Continue to which it up.
I’m glad there was this fight! Reminds me of that big spider like boss blocking the way near the end of the orig ff7! That when I learnt the cloud limit level 3
Weirdest boss in the game! I mean seriously it’s a freakin house.
It was a normal bad guy in the original, it was still annoying.
Finally, someone who knows how the weaknesses work in this fight!
Also, keeping Barrier up on your characters is SUUUUPER helpful in this fight! Also also, when he's doing a Barrier change he becomes weak to Physical attacks!
Thank you this is the first one I really had trouble with
Beat him on my first try. Cost me a ton of potions though … had no idea wth was going on…
i must of missed some thing because i dont have the other summons or limit breaks lol.
Man, I feel like an idiot now because I never even noticed the elemental change in the windows. I have only fought it once, but that fight was just a long grind, and I didnt stagger it a single time...
Thanks for the info though! I'm going to try having Aerith drop her double cast ring (forget the actual name of the ability) in the center of the ring next time and try to nuke it down.
On a separate note, I found the Gaurd materia very useful in this fight on Cloud. Those chairs filled up his ATB meter really quickly, and I managed to completely fill his proficiency with that sword about halfway through the fight!
Great vid bro I’m loving these vids/guides keep it up👍🏽🔥
When Hell House inhales you, simply use any ATB move on it to make it release the character it's holding.
You can also roll away when its trying to suck you in to avoid it altogether.
Literally stopped playing at launch because of this boss. Glad to have stumbled on this video.
Glad to help!
This strategy helped me win before I didnt even have anything good I just had lightning.. 🤦♂️
I one shot this Boss(took like 20 minutes). I just wanted to see what was really going on. I basically attacked with mostly Aerith and whenever he went to the Air or through Chairs I switched to Cloud(better Dodge and I never blocked lol). Fight wasn't hard. Just Tedious if you don't know what was going in lol. Aerith was great. I think I only used 3 Megapotions and 3 Phoenix. The rest was all pray and Healing Wind. The really bad thing I had happen was losing Shiva outright because I used Her as soon as The House Enter stage 2 Animation started.
Just beat it tonight
Took lots of trysts but I had strong cure magic fire and ice did the trick liek you said
It you can also take advantage of were the boxes are. It ca hardly attack you there. It's also good for avoiding electric based attacks
Thank you I had almost given up on this and found your video
Got it the first time but wouldnt have done it without healing materia
Wow I was missing Aero, shiva and fat chocobal. I only had one summon, but what I noticed was you can put the house to sleep sometimes! ATB materia and dodge materia is great too
