Thank you to Square-Enix for providing me with a review code for this game!
There are a lot of guides out there for Weiss, showing you that he can be killed in 150 seconds with all sorts of mastered materia and perfect ability usage. I'm here to show you that you can kill him like a normal human being without all that. You still need to be on point with your dodging and timing of abilities, but you don't need to beat him in 2 minutes flat in order to be successful. The biggest thing you'll need to worry about is having 3 Ice materia mastered for Blizzaga, and enough MP to cast it until Weiss gets staggered in Phase 2. A parry materia is also highly recommended, but not totally necessary. I've seen people do this boss with Cloud's regular dodging.

Thanks mate! Really helpful guide. Summary for others:
1. The aim is to stagger him.
2. Learn to Parry Dodge with Tifa on unblockable hits, success dodge pressures him, then build up the Stagger bar with Focused Strike.
3. In "gun" phase, cast Acane Ward, build up ATB and cast Blizzarga inside the Acane Ward. Make sure to switch chars.
4. Repeat 2 in "double sabre" phase.

Watched three strategy guide for Weiss, this is the one that gave me the edge. You gave so much more info than anyone else. Especially the tip about immaculates end. Everyone kept saying stop him from using it but had no idea it was a timed thing. As soon as I knew that I was able to stop it. Big help
Thank you so much for the guide. It helped me beat him and get the achievement. I did switch out the haste and first strikes for healing, since I wasn’t very good at dodging the stabs!
Thank you so much!!!! I've been trying so many strategies, but this one was the only that didn't require a full set of upgraded materia.
Of all strategies I looked up, this was the one that finally worked for me. Thank you!
Who the heck would dislike this. Havent been on this part of the game yet. But asusual the guide is very in depth. Thanks johnny
I think it's a bot, actually haha. It always happens within a few minutes of uploading. Either that or I have someone who subs to me that hates me :D
Legit this is the only guide that helped me. Thanks man
The Gotterdammerung does work (please read, hehe), normally it does two things, one being that the character begins the fight with the limit break gauge already filled, but there is another perk that DOES work and its perfect for this fight, it helps you build the limit break extremely fast. I recommend to use it on Cloud, he should have the Limit Break ready to use when you stagger Weiss, then just build up the stagger damage bonus with Tifa (2 or 3 True Strikes) and then blow that dude up with an Omnislash
Yes! I actually employed this strategy when helping someone out the other day. Fantastic tip!
@@thabugman9433 If you're still having trouble next week, sure! I'm currently not at home w/ my PS5 and won't be for a bit.
@@SweetJohnnyCage I would love that!!! Any way to contact?
@@thabugman9433 I have a Discord server, the link to the is in the description. PSN also works, my tag is SweetJohnnyCage.
@@thabugman9433 Hey I'm back home and available to help if you still need!
Yo man thanks for the help! Took me a while still to figure out the timing for everything and such but this definitely sped up the time it would have taken me if I tried to learn all this the hard way lol. Thanks again!
Thanks a bunch!! Genuinely good strategy and tips! Got my last trophy. Onward to core crisis!
Thank you SO much! Yours was the only strategy that worked for me ❤️ cheers!
Thanks for the video! Other guides had multiple, maxed out material (2xLuck, ATB Stagger etc) but following this helped a regular human, like myself, beat Weiss during phase 2 after the 3rd attempt.
Thanks again!
Glad it helped! Doing those insane strategies is fun, but no one is doing that the first time just to get through it haha.
Thanks so much for this guide! Thanks to you I managed to beat Weiss! After stage 1 things got quite messy for me, but I'll take it. He staggers quite easily towards the end
Great strategy, worked well for me. Something I’ve notice a lot of people are not realizing is that the Götterdämmerung, while not starting you at full limit, will greatly speed up your limit growth. I kept it on Tifa, had a limit ready to go before the first stagger, but saved it for the second stagger when everyone was out of ATB and then melted him.
Ohhhh that's interesting! I didn't know it had that side effect!
Wow that would have helped...lol ah well
bro u made it 3X easier
Wow. Honestly this tactic worked so well for me. Thanks for adding that. Destroyed him in the second stagger!
This helped so much!!!! Thank you!! And you’re right, the tougher part was just getting used to playing all the characters again after a while
Right! Like why would they do that! I had forgotten all my knowledge with them! And then to fight one of the the toughest bosses in the game... lol insanity
This!
Thanks for the guide man! Thanks to you was able to knock this out in the first attempt. putting the gotterdammerung on cloud was also useful as he had a limit break available for the first stun phase. thanks to tifa's limit break during the second stun phase I didn't even need to do the third phase. now if only pride and joy 0.5 was as easy.
Thank you dude! This was the final achievement i needed and using this worked flawlessly after 3 attempts! I actually had two limit breaks built up with cloud and fifa on the second stagger so managed to get it done in 2 phases and completely skipped the 3rd phase 😃
Brilliant! This guide is definitely the one!
Blizzaga on arcane ward during phase 2 staggered him so fast! Managed to defeat him on the first try after your guide. Whereas with the 300% stagger style I kept dying while trying to skip his 2nd phase 😮
Thank you very much, this video has been the only one that has worked for me and I have been able to defeat it before reaching phase 3
You sir are a legend. Followed this to a T and after some tries I got him down. Thank you so much. This was the last trophy I needed to 100% the game.
I don't do this often, but I have to give credit when its due, great guide, I adapted it to the materials that I had and it worked, thank you, keep the good work!
Thank you very much for the compliment!
You are a Godsend. I watched and read so many different strategies and this is the only one that even came close to working for me. Amazing
THANK YOU. Finally a guide that’s not just “stagger him then go god mode with perfect timing to kill him before phase 2”
Uh but the strategy is super easy. Literally got it down in 3:24
Excellent guide. I finally scrapped this boss after 300+ attempts. ♥️🎉
It is a common misconception that the second spell cast from an Arcane Ward does not consume MP. In fact, the second spell will have half the attack power and stagger rate of the original spell at 25% of the MP cost. So, if a spell that costs 12 MP is cast from an Arcane Ward, it will be cast twice for a total cost of 15 MP and will do 150% of the damage of a single spell. The good news is that it does not consume ATB. You can easily verify this by watching the MP level after casting a spell from an Arcane Ward.
Just got a PS5 about a month back. Played (and loved) the DLC and it made me want to replay the whole game to get ready for Rebirth. I watched a few guides for this fight and gotta say that this was the easiest one to follow. It offers plenty of room for error. I messed around a bit with the Materia set-ups and I also threw the Gotterdammerung on Cloud because it does start you off with 50% of your limit filled. I actually was able to finish him off by phase 2 thanks to this and it took me about 6 attempts to get the fight down. Once you get used to dodging his phase 1 attacks, you can pretty easily chew through phase 2 with blizzard. Great guide :)
Used this method and I FINALLY beat this SOB. Thanks for the help man I am def subscribing
Good job ! This is the most peaceful and comfortable method that everyone can follow. Thanks !
You're very welcome!
Thank you. Super helpful, and doesn't require insane skill or tricks to do.
What a sick guide. I beat this using another method which took awhile. But used this and got him on the 3rd try. Thank for this.
Thanks so much for the strat mate. Didn't end is as clean as you did...cloud infinite end+ tiffa limit break at the end of his stagger..I was on the edge of my seat😩😂 thought I'd lost when the cutscene came on haha
Thank you so much, I was able to do it on my second attempt after watching this.
Even though someone died during phase 2 + Weiss restored back to 50% in phase 3,
the full 240% stagger + infinity end + dolphin flurry in phase 3 got me the win
This is the guide that did it for me! Combined with tips from another about basically skipping the second phase by waiting to stagger until the moment that phase begins. Thanks :)
Glad it helped! I never thought of waiting to stagger like that. Genius!
thanks so much, yours are the only one does work for me. Beat him under four min!
Excellent guide. Thank you!
JUST beat him thanks to you and this vid. Thanks!!
This strategy helped so much. I finally beat him. Thank you!
Wow this did the trick. I didn't even have to wait until after I did hard mode. Materia was close to max and just barely had level 6 weapons so was able to get reprieve on 2 characters. The double spell damage on round 2 in arcane ward was clutch. Synergy fire in Aerith was clutch too now that it's free mp cost especially. Thanks for the guide! This plus the videos from @Blitz really helped me out with this battle.
Crazy. I tried and tried so many other methods. This is the best. It’s more conducive to my play style. Thanks for this.
Glad it helped!
I was late to the game on Intermission. Was stuck on this Weiss fight until I found your video. It, along with the Gotterdamerung tip got the job done with just a little practice. Thank you!
Great guide. Gotterdammerung definitely helped knock his health down when Cloud had it. If you can stagger him quickly and have Cloud use it after 240%, by the end of the first stagger you'll have him under 1/2 health. He never even his phase 3 with it.
Eventually worked thankfully! Literally the timing to get the stagger for phase 2 was where I was going wrong. Thank you!!
Thanks finally beat him after about 20 tries. The most straightforward guide since the others on UA-cam seemed impossible. 100% on the game now
Omg…after like 20 tries, I saw this video of a NORMAL strategy and got it after a couple tries. You’re awesome
Thanks! Got him at the end of second phase when staggered with Tifa and Clouds limit break. I landed a few true strikes with Tifa before using the limit breaks for extra damage. Had the gotterdammerung on cloud and transference module on Tifa.
I just beat this boss thanks to your guide! You're the GOAT
Your strategy was the only one that it worked for me! I was trying for days! I got very nervous, but I finally made it! The nightmare is over heheheh! Thank you very very much!!
Glad it helped!
Thank you sooo much. I finally beat him with your guide.
Glad I could help!
Thank you sooo mutch! At last i found a guide thats not made for superhumans with machinelike precision.
You have a New sub ^^
There is no way I would have done this without your helpful video. Thanks
You're very welcome!
Thanks, great guide! Today, I successfully completed the mission. I appreciate the helpful text. 😁😁😁😁😁😁
Best guide up thanks man👌
thanks, this helped me beat it within 5 attempts
Thanks a lot! Your video helped me a great deal! It took some tries to get the timings right, but with your strat and a (slightly ;o) ) better Materia composition I took him down in the second stagger... And then I read the comments about the Götterdämmerung... well, worked without it and now the game is 100% again!
Yea my materia could've been a bit better, for sure.
I did it! Thanks for tips dude!!!
I know I'm a bit late to the party but I just got my hands on a ps5 and this guide got me through this challenge on my second try. Thank you so much!
Great video! The second spells auto-casted inside the arcane ward is NOT free as it still costs MP but not ATB.
Was prepared to cry tonight knowing I can't "platinum" intermission. But this strategy worked more than perfectly for me. I made so many mistakes as I just did one go at it following this video along with me. I resorted to fira with tifa as MP ran low. I didn't use unbridled strength or enough haste and barriers as we were in phase 1. I didn't dodge anywhere near as well as you. And yet with an arcane ward we absolutely pummeled him with spells and didn't give him a chance to breathe!!! This strategy saved my enjoyment experience of FF7 remake so thank you so much. Now I can finally play Rebirth. Been in plastic wrap for over a month and a half!!
WOW, this is a solid strategy! I'm going to give it a try tonight and see how it goes. From the few guides I've seen, this one so far this the easiest and no relying on cheezy moves and stuff. Great job!
Glad it seems helpful to you! Aside from parrying stab, you can pretty much just worry about dodging everything else and reacting.
@@SweetJohnnyCage I was able to beat him using a modification of this strategy. Thanks!!
Congrats! What were your modifications?
@@SweetJohnnyCage I had to swap a few of the materias from your list because I didn't have enough, or they weren't maxed out. For example, I gave Firaga to Aerith, and that worked great because it launches Weiss into the Air and adds pressure to him. It also halts him, so it gives me extra hits with Tifa during the first phase. I swapped Tifa's Transference Module to the Gotterdammerung so that she can already have her limit break. That way I used it after doing the two True Strikes to drain his health even longer, while Aerith uses her rays and Cloud is doing his Infinities End move. Then I used Blizzaga as you said with Cloud and Tifa while Aerith used Firaga and heal if needed. Somehow that worked I managed to kill him during the third phase and before he did his one-shot kill.
Thanks, The Blizzaga was really helpful... Because of that. I could stagger him in second phase and perform 2 limit breaks from cloud and Tifa to finish him off.... Finally got him ..
Same bro, literally finished with Tifa and cloud limit break in the second phase 😂 finally got my well deserved revenge...
Thanks for the help on this one. Weiss didn't get to his last phase, but that was more a combination of luck and patience. I had Ifrit out and my characters were casting -ga spells whenever available during Phase 2. Weiss somehow hit me with that Behemoth Beam move and KOed Tifa, BUT she was Ifrit's summoner. At this point, Weiss HP was so low that it was not visible, and with Tifa KOed, Ifrit moved to his final attack and knocked down Weiss! Luck and patience wins the day, and I haven't even unlocked the previous challenge yet! 😊
Thank you cause of your guide plus some tweaks I made to my material/equipment I managed to beat Weiss in 2.39 after a few runs. next challenge is to beat him in one staggered phase. wish me luck
Good luck!
Thanks so much for this.
Thank you for this! Ive finally beaten Weiss and got the trophy! Cheers mate :)
Glad I could help!
BEAT IT WITH THIS METHOD FIRST TRY, YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!
Took me a little over an hour with this strat. My problem was getting to different phases with really no ATB left even with Haste. Then Aerith would die and its over. But i did it! Thanks!
Yeah he's not staggering for me as easy on phase 2 with the gun. No idea why. Tried to use Tifa's limit break to help me from other videos and it's suddenly not working to build up his stagger. This boss is ridiculous.
I didn’t even know parry slide was a thing when I beat him, I just struggled with I-frames with cloud and used focused thrust to counter lmao, I am a dark souls gamer tho so it came relatively easy.
Also cloud did survive immaculate end with 9999 HP and barrier lmao, but summoning carbuncle as soon as he’s about to cast the move works too, as it’ll revive the entire party
Goddamn! This is finally the everyman guide I was looking for (every other guide is someone bombing the boss in 30s) and boy howdy did it work! If you're reading this, it'll still take a lot of practice but it's totally doable!!
I like how he admits he isn't perfect and even gets whacked a few times during his run, that's realistic and how it went for me too!
Thank you so much....i was finally able to beat him using your strategy. Do u have one on the top secrets as well??
Yep! ua-cam.com/video/uiqW-5VNYwY/v-deo.html
Thanks mate, had watched the guides from BltzZ and Abyx Gaming, but your strategy did it for me🎉
Normally I'm not one for trophy hunting, but there's something special about this remake. It's definitely the combat that has got me hooked.
A thousand times thanks.
His health is actually surprisingly low and you can kill him within 2 staggers easily. First phase, I use Cloud to guard all the time while remaining close to Weiss so you can gauge the distance of the moves much easier. Remaining guard at all time until the last moment when you read the red text and realise what direction you need to dodge to. You can screw up a ton without much consequences if you just have Tifa and Aerith heal and barrier Cloud while you are practicing the dodge. Use focus thurst or hit a few times with operator mode hits whenever he is pressured. On the first stagger, use your limit break. I had Cloud's even without the Gottermarang because he was taking so much damage. I didn't even have Tifa with 3rd chi stage and wasn't doing ATB stagger, ATB, skill charging materias and she could still pull out some high % from true strike alone. 1st stagger is done and Weiss is down to about half health. He changes to phase 2 which is susceptible to magic only so it is Aerith time. I had her equipping 2 magic ups and just put out a Arcane ward closer to Weiss. Whenever anyone is casting magic , they should start casting in this circle. I had all 3 use -ga level magic until all ATBs are gone then anyone who doesn't have ATB just attack normally. This phase he is slow and doesn't interrupt you that much. His basic attacks can be countered by Cloud Punisher mode easily. Nuke him, he will use special move to reduce stagger gauge but it doesn't matter as we are building it faster than he could reduce it. Once he is staggered the second time, go to town with him. Use any limit if you have it, maximum % from Tifa as usual obviously. Nuke with all mana for Aerith, Cloud spam Braver. He will die in the second stagger and not having a chance to go into the 3rd phase.
After hours of other strategies this one worked, right after I staggered him the first time just nailed him with blizzaga staggered him and got him with a braver right before it wore off.
Yes! I got it! Your really work. I got reward early before I finish hard mode with awesome rewards!!! I’m on way to finish hard mode now. 🎉🎉🎉
great video dude. you are a legend.
Happy to be helpful!
Thanks for this, just to copy what others were saying, I ended up adding Gotterdammerung to Cloud to get his limit break up for the second stagger. After that, he was at about 10% health so I went ham on him, summoned and ended up getting Tifa's limit break up which look it over the edge.
Holly shit dude this worked perfectly, it is true what they say about the gotterdammerung, it fills.up limit faster, I had been trying for hours using another strat and using yours I got it in about 5 attempts just as his second phase was ending xD
Hearing Aerith say "see you around" after I won was really satisfying.
3mins. 35secs.
This strategy was flawless. Thank you!!!!!
This is literally every guide ive encountered so far.
Thank you for this! I just finished CC reunion and went back to finally do the dlc for Remake and this was the last trophy I was missing ❤
When you haven’t played for years and go back jumping right into the dlc it’s hard to get back to how good you were when you first played it lol
@@legendaryseph9406 it didnt help that Yuffie was so fun and different compared to Tifa/Cloud/Aerith 😅
Just beat him now, when the first stagger was reaching its end and in the middle of cloud’s limit break I realized there wasn’t going to be enough time for ray of judgment to work so I just did the arcane wars and blizzaga early and the second he phase changed the first one hit and I was able to build up enough momentum to stagger him one more time before phase 3, I automatically used tifa’s limit break and he went down to super low health, I had to basically pray because I didn’t have enough time or ATB to use any more skills so I switched to cloud punisher mode and I was able to kill him right before the second stagger ended and I skipped his 3rd phase all together
Love the title 🤣🤣🤣. I ended up taking him down in phase 2 with Thundaga instead of Blizzaga. I also used Synergy and that helped a lot.
Good strat! I feel like Firaga might be the fastest, but I really like the double hit on Blizzaga. Long stun time.
Good break down. This fight can be tough as hell. A lot of fun though.
I'm dreading some of the future optional bosses (Emerald and Ruby). Nice they're tying in all aspects of the FF7 universe into this.
I found it mostly fun cause u get to be Tifa the most in it! Best character to play as in the game imo! :D
@@StaticImpulse21 I like using her when I needed to rack up the stagger bonus.
I might go back and master the fight at some point, but beating it once was enough for me for now lol
Thank you so much for this. I've been trying for hours, and finally managed to defeat this asshole... you're a life saviour. ❤
Had no idea you could dodge Stab until now!
This is def the best guide for this guy. Rough forgetting how to play with everyone. Vs yuffie haha
Just beat it thanks to this, nothing else worked for me thanks! And I thought Bahamut was difficult, this one was a nightmare.
As a regular human being, this is exactly the guide I needed lol. And because I am very stubborn and wanted to do this fight without getting all of the manuscripts. Still totally doable without all of them, actually!
I gave up on this boss fight
Im very annoyed that i won't get that trophy, because FF7 is my favourite game of all time and i LOVE the remake
But i realized its just not worth my time. I tried for over 3 hours streight to beat this boss, but i can't even get over phase one
I have no fun at all trying this fight over and over again. It just frustrates me and makes me angry.
Its a personal problem because i am a person that hates difficulty in games. I am here for the story, the characters, the music and the world. And not to get my ass kicked over and over again.
It took me almost 2 month's to get the platinum trophy for this game. Im just exhausted.
Thank you so much for the guide, i finally got the trophy 😭
Congrats!!
Amazing strategy. I beat him first attempt with this one. I did have more max level materias though. I had way more trouble with top secrets in Huffie's chapter.
Same, I struggled way more with the Top Secrets gauntlet
You simply use blade burst with cloud to do damage against the physical immune part, and dodge as Tifa in p1. You can dodge with cloud in p1 but its way harder and requires superior timing.
Thx your strategy really helped I beat him on my 2nd attempt only difference is I used Gotterdammerung on cloud because it still fills the limit gauge during the fight over time. By the time he used rejuvination and I got 2nd stagger both Cloud and Tifa had thier limits. Both limits and Ray of Judgement killed him!!!
You're definitely right about this fight being hard after a long hiatus 😂
Got this on day 1 and platinum'd it and wasn't too interested in Intergrade at the time but here i am attempting this just before Rebirth hits
thank you for the helpful fight i was able to finish the fight in the second stagger thanks to ULT from Tifa.
5:20 you forgot the earrings that don't break and you resuscitate them, they're called seraphic earrings
I got this in 2:32 so I was pretty fucking stoked thanks for the guide!
Thanks for this video. I finally beat him. Took me about 20 tries and getting used to the buttons again 😅. The Gotter does work but only in building your limit break. I used it on cloud. Also, anyone notice weiss has gunblades? 👀
God tier guide
I used this method earlier to finally get the trophy and fully complete the DLC before the new game. I played several attempts where immaculate end ended me. The successful attempt I only missed 1…. 1 parry with Tifa during phase 3 (his lightning moving phase) and won. So it was just enough to save time to stagger him into his first phase and finally beat him down. I swear the game only gives you like a few mistakes in the round to get the win.
Great guide! I don’t think the götterdämmerungs are useless if you use the refocus limit break instead. It makes hard mode more entertaining since everyone now has 3 ATB bars. I also give all of my characters pray materia so I rarely worry about using the heal materia which wastes precious MP
Oh they're certainly not useless! I just meant that by the time you get to and kill Weiss, there isn't much left to do in the game.
@@SweetJohnnyCage True. That’s why I did hard mode combat Simulator challenges before I started my hard mode play through. I had to grind beforehand to prepare for the fights and I was able to use the rewards during my replay on hard mode
