- Jump materia. What does it do? Does it do things?? Let's find out!
I wanted a natural fadeout so I elected to win the fight with each character's jump but it didn't end up mattering because I used the playstation editing software to create fades anyway.
Aerith's attack had essentially no splash but everyone elses's does. Still I elected to use the attack on a single enemy on everyone for consistency. The wolf had a tendency to dodge the jump so I eventually decided to precede each jump with a parry to guarantee that it would hit.
All characters were starter weapon + Chocoking's Cape only. Traits were removed, and the only equipped materia were First Strike, Precision Defense Focus, and Jump. I have no idea how the scaling works but you're certainly welcome to guess.

Just to clarify: Jump loses its airtime when solo. It doesn't seem possible to have more airtime when by yourself.
Oh ok. I was about to ask how you made them come down so fast 😂
@@user-dsfhsdjf-32463 I still get so many notifications from people asking this question that don't read the pinned comment 😭
@aethertruck my mother worked the front desk at Old Faithful in Yellowstone one summer, where they had signs EVERYWHERE saying when the next expected eruption would be, and she said every third person who came to her with questions would look at a sign, then still ask her when the next eruption would be. She called it, "The Idiot Desk."
Yeah, people don't often read what's right in front of their faces.
I wanted to use it as Aeirth for the finishing blow on Sephiroth - talk about the ultimate karma payback! Could never get the timing though. He either survived it or AI cloud managed a kill steal.

I didn't bother using this materia but it looks cool, the Sahagin uses this ability they should've included this one in the Enemy Skill materia.
Enemy skill is monster exclusive abilities, though it would have some precedent. In FFX, Kimahri's Ronso Rage was a stand-in for blue magic, and his very first Rage was Jump.
I'm a bit sad some abilities from remake monster skill materia didn't make it to rebirth.
Same. It requires experimentation to be used as a reliable dodge in boss fights.. but there's always a better option to spend 2 bars on, like just casting manawall and protect
@@ZealGamesyeah, seriously. Maybe if it were one ATB, or refunded some ATB if you dodge an attack using it.
This is the one materia that I didn't use even once in my 200-hour playthrough ...
Wanted to use it from the moment I got it but there was always just some other materia that was more useful
gil up materia is laughing
Jump materia is OP
Same
It’s useless cause the amount of damage done doesn’t match the amount of the ATB cost.
Nice BoJack Horseman reference from the description box!
I figured that Aerith would have a magic-themed Jump before I saw the video. Looks similar to the one Freya does in FFIX.
everyone's a dragoon, i wonder what Cid's look like
typical dragoon jump with lance?
probably gonna look like ff13 fang
He's probably gonna be able to jump with a weapon ability instead of needing materia
@@foodwich2132I'm expecting it to be his triangle ability.
Peak thumbnail. 10/10 video
Thanks for this. I wanted to see all the different characters animations for the jump materia but was too lazy to test them on each person myself. Would take too long anyway.
The only utility I can think of this materia is on the outside world if you dont move the left analog while in the air you can actually stay above for as long as possible so maybe to avoid deadly attacks. But only tried on the mobs though
Yea I think that's the intended use. Like in turn based FFs.
They named it well. Focusing on the jump, not the stab.
kinda funny that aerith is the only one who didn't smash the ground
@AndyHDGamingYeah, she shoots a magic blast from the sky.
She smashed the ground with magic. 😂
Thank you SO much. I'm a PC gamer and I've wanted more info on Jump since I first heard it was in the game, but there's been absolutely nothing. I really hoped it took the character off the battlefield for much longer than this, to make it a really good way to disjoint attacks like Temporal Imprisonment. It's interesting that it kind of seems like it scales with the higher of Attack or Magic Attack, just judged on Aerith's doing so much damage.
It did much longer if you want
I tried it everytime it would be longer than rhis video
Maybe a reactivation would made it faster like this
It's because they're solo. With a party the jump has a 10 second airtime.
@@aethertruckAh, I see! Would you be able to check something for me then? Does Barret's Charge fill while he's airborne? I wanted to try to make a dragoon Barret build. Can always be an old-fashioned solo with frog party members...
This Materia is totally a test for Cid's gameplay style in the next game, isn't it?
Could be! But it's also important to note: This materia was also present in Crisis Core
@komrademoses true but with Rebirth's battle system, this seems more like a test of how Cid's combat style will play out in the next game. Similar to how Synergy abilities were used a little in Intermission before being expanded and integrated into Rebirth
@@blackroomrob4205I think he'll have two modes similar to Cloud. An offensive style focusing on thrusts, and a defensive style focused on sweeps
I felt Sonon was a test also
@antonironstag5085 I can see that working and it would also hold true to his OG combat style too
I found Aerith version the coolest as it's the only magical based jump. She did the most damage too...lol
Based on the differences in damage between the different characters in this video, I'm guess the damage is based on your magic stat.
@@omegagilgamesh or just the wolf having shit magic defense compared to its physical defense, plus aeriths magic is just higher then everyone else's strength
Aerith in the thumbnail looks like she has a beard lol.
Its the curl of hair on her left side flapping in the air.
brings me back to crisis core where Jump was one of the best moves in the game
Patience it'll happen in part 3 right now this is to make up for Cid not being playable.
thats odd. For some reason I remember the characters staying in the air for much, much longer.
Yeah me too
Because you can
this ia dragoon move
It's because they're all solo. With a party the they leave the battlefield for 10 seconds.
I don't think the true value of Jump is in the damage. I (theoretically) think that Jump can be used to avoid ! One-Hit Kill moves if used right like the Bomb's Self-Destruct, the King Zu's Swan Song or maybe more practical, Rufus's ! moves
that's what i thought too but unfortunately it has a long start up animation before the actual jump which leads to weird timing to avoid some big moves
maybe i will try another testing for jump materia
it's a weird command but cool
great for bahamut's wings since that has the worst hitbox
Jump is pretty strong. I combine it with darkside usually. My main issue with it is how much it misses if the enemy is moving around making you waste 2 ATB and the 10 second airtime when you couldve been doing something useful instead
Probably good for defense then
This should be a personal skill of Cid
Not me saving this materia for Cid only to find out he's not playable
I would use it if it cost 1 ATB or it fills 1 ATB after using, 2 ATB is too much
A pretty nice materia to dodge and counter, would be nice in some boss like rufus and sephiroth
Have you tried it with the gambler materia with jump being the only ability? I think gambler has you only using one ATB bar instead of two.
That means having 2 characters with only Jump materia, and for a spell/command and there's only 1 in the game, so one character can't have anything @@robertwheeler8023
Problem is you're invincible during the Jump animation, which for 1 bar would basically make you unkillable for some characters that build ATB so quickly.
Such a classic Final Fantasy move.
Amazing work and effort going thru this for us!
The Grasslands Intel is not to be underestimated
If i use it it takes 1 minute to clash wtf? I mean hes like 1 minute in the air while the others getting attacked by the enemy
Oh cool, a playable Cid before Cid becomes even playable
1000 outta 10 man this is the shits, st8 to the point amazingness dude. But just to check is there a delay time beyond shown? Or is it really just 2s max? Thanks heaps man.
It's instant when solo. With a party, the Jumper leaves combat for 10 seconds before returning.
I once used the Jump materia and never came down. Unequipped it and never used it again cause I thought it sucked. 😂
@@ubergamer2010 oh, it still sucks! And when you are not the only one in combat it is designed to keep you in the air for exactly 10 seconds which feels like forever. These characters only instantly came down because they were solo
Put a basketball in Aerith's hand.
New, Cid is worrying about his unique ability in part3.
I wonder if u can dodge Octoslash with Jump 🤔
Probably just the first couple of slashes if solo. It does not seem possible to stay airborne when solo. But Sephiroth does have a forward motion while slashing, perhaps you can land behind him? Maybe something fun to test!
Never used this materia or dark side or gambler- Odin probably reprisals this eh
Anyone know if you are immune to instant kill attacks while in the air? Like say Zenteksuken or Gigaflare. I've wanted to test this out
I wonder how would it be with Zack? Sephiroth Hell's gate is his jump version
Literally the same as Cloud. It exists in Crisis Core.
can you imagine aerith actually just dropped down and whacked the enemy with her staff? with something like that you could call it...
...an aerith dive 🙂
B[air]ret Wall-ace
In the Clouds Strife
Yuffie Kis-air-agi
Kite Sith
Air-ith [Gains]borough
Some of those are stretched pretty thin but I got nothin for Red and Tifa.
Am I the only one who has the issue where if I equip it to red he stays in the air for like a full 10 seconds before landing?
Everyone stays in the air 10 seconds but the materia behaves funny. Presumably to prevent enemy AI from bugging out, Jump will not allow you to disappear if the jumper is the last targetable player character on the field. (The presumer is me, I presume this at my peril) These exhibitions were all done solo.
This is definitely cid coded
Its fun to use with hp asorb sometimes
What is the use in a regular playthrough? It did no dmg when I tried it but it looks cool
It's not very useful. It can avoid anything you want, like Sephiroth's heartless angel, but it costs 2 ATB and takes you out of the fight for 10 seconds. The damage is just okay. Nobody ever really uses it which is why I made the video lol
How are you consistently landing so fast? Just tested it on Cloud who takes 5 seconds to land but my Red XIII was landing immediately? Please explain
According from what I’ve read, it’s a lot faster if the character is solo. With party, they stay in the air longer.
It's balanced that way to prevent cheesing. To explain, when you're in the air, you are untargetable, so when in a party, the enemy would switch targets to someone else. I think if an enemy has nothing to target, they bug out their combat script. To prevent that, Jump doesn't give untargetability when there's only 1 character, otherwise enemies would just sit there and do nothing, which would bust ultimates like Zantetsuken or Gigaflare that require a target to be cast but are activated automatically based on triggers like boss HP%
So, do you have to block and then use Jump? I ask because when I first used it, I was waiting 10 seconds for them to come back down.
Nah. This wolf has a tendency to evade the attack so I put him in a state where he can't
A jump materia? I thought it was a mod ahahhaa cool!
Why are ur colors off?
This happend to me as well u think is a problem when uploading from ps5.
This never happened on my ps4
I think the colors look fine on this video. Though when I play and record in HDR it does get muddy. I think it's just the blue tint of the VR arena
Where the f** was this in my 200hr run of the game ?!?!?
Airlift
how you are getting these perfect blocks?
Precision materia and timing lol
Only Cid benefits the materia
She's wearing Air Jordans
Air-ith 😂
