Slight correction from the video as pointed out by @Crazy-Jukebox. You can't double stack Magic Focus Materia. Apologies for the misinformation there. But that does free up another slot so go ham with a different pairing :)
Que me recomiendas para acabar los 3 últimos capítulos? Soy español y miro bastante tus vídeos y explicaciones
@@manuinfantesureda7100 y si él no es español, por qué le contestas en español? Si ves sus vídeos es porque entiendes inglés (o deberías).
Do you know if there's only one synergy materia in the game that you get from Chadlly? Thanks
@@TommyMartinezpt Yes, just the 1 I'm afraid, I would have loved a second one 😁
@@TheGameFatherUKwhy did you lie about it?
What I've learned from this video is I have no idea how to play this game even though I just finished it 😂
Hahahahaha
Is not our fault
The materia system is great, but complex. I'm honestly more focus on having different spells on different casts members for whatever elemental weaknesses on enemies we find along the way, but, as you can see, there's some big massive ways on using the blue materias and sticking to one spell
Same 😂
Normal is actually kind of like easy mode. Hard mode is where you actually have to use your skills properly.
I just play for the story 🤣
How does dynamic work cause one one moment I'm absolutely destroying things the next I'm absolutely getting. My shit wrecked and these fuckers are hitting me for 9999 damage like what the hell is going on 🤣🤣🤣
Just got my platinum but I'm still floating around watching videos like this. I'm not ready for it to be over :(
Oh gosh, this video is insane. I love how the FFVII community has growth cause only has been 6 weeks and there are already videos like this. Thanks a ton man
So glad you thought it was useful, and yeah, it has such a solid community behind it 🙂
Optinoob's channel got me through all the brutal and legendary challenges as well as the regular bosses on hard mode. His character builds and strategies are phenomenal.
For real! I should post my original kills of those bosses just for a laugh. Someone pointed me to his channel so gave them a blast. The difference was night and day 😅
Indeed i am using his tactics and they work amazing
Yeah he helped me out a LOT. This guy 👏🏾 👏🏾
Starting off great here for me, since I’ve nearly platinumed the game (have some brutal left) but I had no idea how synergy worked.
SUPER happy to see radiant ward on here, that move is BROKEN and under talked about. You can stagger anything with it.
Yeah I am a BIG fan of Radiant ward, it's absolutely OP! Hope you manage to get those last few brutals down!
This is a great video
When doing the Gongaga loop, you can quip elemental fire on Cloud and Barret's weapons and then map Cloud's Triple Slash and Barret's Maximum Fury to a shortcut. Give them both First Strike and give Barret the chocoking cape. You'll clear each group of enemies before Barret's and Cloud's attack animations end as long as the difficulty level is on easy.
450 AP with the choco armband and AP up, 150 AP with AP up only. This loop takes a minute and 20 seconds. This includes file saving and loading.
To make it go even faster, move the camera to the next enemy group's direction before the attack animations end.
I love how the Gongaga loop has gotten so so much more efficient over the weeks since it was discovered. I'm gonna give this a shot and see how it compares. Thanks for the info!
@@TheGameFatherUK Awesome, you're welcome. Thanks for all of the tips
dude, i completely overlooked the effect on this armor 😅
For even better method you don’t have to save&load every time..
Simply pause and retry battle on fighting last pack of monsters and you can “refresh” all monsters. Saving you from SaveLoad :)
I put fire and ice on swiftcast, then ice and fire each on magnify and magic focus on aerith with hp-mp swap, and either first strike or chocoking cape. Cast level 2 magic and the enemy group dies
Man. One of the best tips (if not the best) I've seen around. Thank you!
Great video GameFather! best one on hard mode tips that I have seen. Great shoutout for Optinoob also, his brumal form video was epic. Going to attempt all brutal missions over the weekend
Did you manage to do them? I tried them again after watching Optinoobs guides and man... I really wish I had watched them the first time round 😂 Could have saved myself hours and hours!
Pronunciation was on point! Thank you for this, honestly so much good info in here!
Excellent! Honestly, I am the absolute worst when it comes to pronouncing things usually 😅 Glad the video was useful though!
The first tip and I’m already overwhelmed with stuff I had no clue about
this by far was the most helpful end game guide to rebirth for me! thank you so much!
You are most welcome! So glad it was helpful!
this video was very insightful and nicely done, a couple of these I still didn't know about
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for shouting out other creators!
Already having Platin but especially the first tips I wasn't aware. Hope in part 3 all you tips are still valid. Great video
Thanks! Congrats on the Plat, it's one of the more difficult ones for sure!
Great video. Thanks for the tips.
This video is phenomenal! thank you!!!!
This is the best rebirth combat guide I’ve come across on UA-cam!
Appreciate those words! Thank you!
Had no idea these were even functions in the game. Can't wait to go for 3rd playthru
Awesome guide, looking forward to platinuming this very soon
Hope you manage to get it, it's a tough plat!
@@TheGameFatherUK Excluding minigames, it's easy. Honestly, I have all FF games platimided but I'm not sure about this one :)
Holy crap the Brumal Form strategy is genius and is just what I was looking for to fully exploit Aerith's potential!
Great tips in this! Soothing Breeze is under used in most guides I see, thanks for mentioning it. Really saw its benefits when playing hard mode. Used Optis builds as well and finished all brutal sims, still need one more legendary. But finished hard mode, might go back for the side quests at some point when I get the plat.
Opti's builds are really solid, better than anything I had come up with at that point 😅 And yeah, Soothing Breeze is next level for a group heal in-between fights. How far off the Plat are you now? Must be close if you're that far in the combat sim!
@@TheGameFatherUK Close, but still have some mini games to clean up for Johnny which will be annoying.
@@SuperTrailerz They are the true hard mode of this game 😅
This is very helpful.. Got ways to go in Normal mode myself. I will be prepared for the Brutal challenges to get gotterdamerung for Hard mode
I never realized you could stack magics like that. Thanks for the tips!
You're welcome, glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the video man. I'm working on overworld progress before Hard Mode so this guide helps out a ton
You're welcome! That's what I did and I think that's pretty much what most people do too. Are you going for the Platinum trophy?
The way u can restore hp and
Mp from linking with enemy skill is just genius I thought it only work with spells, the synergy trick with no cost was also neat and petrify with magnify thanks I learned new tricks and some I already know and Optinoob helped me a lot Al in Al thanks a lot
This guide is AMAZING 👏 🙌🏾 . I didn't know you can equip a magnify on your quick keys. That helps loads! Also that brutal form ATB farm is also great. I'm doing Brutal Challenges and I keep dying off of something small.
Looking forward to a Legendary guide if you make one!😅
Hah, well I really don't think I could make any improvements to what Optinoob has already put out on his boss guides :) I was running around for ages using the single target shortcut wondering why it wasn't doing much 😂 Still, glad it was helpful!
Equip magnify on Shortcuts what do u mean ?
Amazing tips. "Sadly" I already knew all of them, but those are THE best tips to get for the game. I still learned something new via the comments so thats also a W.
Cheers!
I wonder. How people discover all this? I mean, I didn't know shit.
I learned so much! Thx!
Glad it was helpful!
amazing, thanks!!
If you keep transcendence Aerith's magic attack will be boosted. Not sure of the numbers but it's stated in the skill's effects. As of now the Hades' armlet respawns inside the chest where you get it so all of your party can have a minimum of 7 armor slots
They just did an update so wonder if this has passed. I meant to farm this
@@ForzaTerra89
Just did a quick run on easy, it's still there 👍 (Gonna do this again until I have 5 of them)
Thanks for the added tip! I really thought they were gonna patch the Hades armour respawn in todays patch. Glad they sorted the chapter 12 bug though.
@@TheGameFatherUK I believe this was intentional or they're not gonna bother patching it. Farming is already very easy with 7 characters via chapter select. Also, the only other benefits you could gain by having multiple is for a 6-person bout (which can be played on easy and have no rewards on hard mode) and maybe the final boss sequence; any other place in the game only requires 3 teammates and the Cetran Braver and Cetran Armlet are both better versions of it.
I tried getting a second cetran armlet for 8 slots, but it wasn’t there. But in the video it looks like he has 2x 8 slots on cloud and aerith. Can anyone confirm you can’t refarm that cetran armlet. I’ll go get the hades one in the meantime
Thank you for this! I was struggling in Hard mode for Mythril golem and this helps me to relook at all my materia set up. This game as been a blast to play indeed!
Glad it was helpful, Mythril Golem is no joke on hard mode :)
Mythril Golem is no joke slightly Op took me six tries and that was maxed level with lots of strategy 😂
Mythril golem was cake. So where all the vr.
The minigames were the challenge.
@@TheGameFatherUK
@@mel-el5862 Hah, well I can't disagree about the mini games!
This is a nice video; I like the tips
Glad you thought it was helpful! :)
Synergy materia omg, never knew it was that good and useful
One ifthe greatest games of ALL TIME
One extra tip regarding Genji Gloves;
Some of the Jetsam can only be acquired in Chapter 13 once you're on your way to Northwood. Don't be like me and spend hours scouring the accessible area looking for the last two only to find them when you give up and head to the temple to get the Cetra Bracelet you missed 😂
That's a solid tip right there. I think I got all mine after the first run through so I didn't even connect the dots that they weren't all available at the same time.
Damn good video! Thanks!
Honestly, if you're like me and have gotten to the point where you are just a few trophies away from Platinum, this guide is pretty much all you need to follow. I've maxed out everything else except Hard Mode Chapter Select and the Brutal/Legendary challenges.
Using your strats for HM Chapters will be my go to and I'll check out OptiNoob's content as well. Honestly, just getting to this point has been a fucking MISSION - with some of the mini-games and post game challenges making me rage quit and coming back later... looking at you Sephiroth 3D and the Cactuar HM challenges.
I'm currently at 340 hours and counting lol... but only a few more to go now!
so that's why there is that many materia with the same element? I alway's ask myself why the F they put like 9 ice/fire etc materia, i didn't know you could put like 3 ice with 3 blue connected!! I think you just changed my whole life thank you !
Saving this for my hard run, doing some clean up on easy/normal then gonna attempt hard
Hard mode is mega fast if you 100% your first play through :)
Had figured out about half the stuff but learned some good setup stuff too. 👍
Idk why I didn’t think about some of the duplicate materia builds seeing as I used some simple ones early in the game but then just forgot all about it lol.
Thanks for the tips though, they’re sure to help with the couple of brutal and more than a couple of legendary simulations I haven’t beaten yet
Thanks! Have you managed to beat those brutal and legendary fights yet?
@@TheGameFatherUK Yeah, I ended up using Optinoob’s guides for some of the legendaries and the last 2 (Zack & Sephiroth ones) still gave me fits.
I believe the last Brutal fight was kinda tough for me, whichever it was with “Virtual Sephiroth” at the end; but still nowhere near as bad as those 2 legendaries…f’in Odin! 🤬
Thank you.
Great video and I did not know the magic focus materia could actually double up. Almost went about hard mode the wrong way by resetting all the sidequests and doing them over in a hard mode playthrough from ch. 1
I like to use the hp-mp converter materia on a back line character paired with a healing materia. So that character has almost 6k mp to spam heals for free after battle is done.
Cheers! How do you find the survivability of the character with HP>MP? Or do you swap to that in between fights?
@@TheGameFatherUK oh no, that setup is for the non active party member. So they use their mp after battle to cast cure via the commands menu.
Although there are videos of people using the hp-mp swap as a means to gain massive amounts of limit gauge. Each perfect parry gives a huge chunk so they use it for i-frames and damage.
@@suitonsuiryudan Ah sorry, I misunderstood what you meant by backline :) That does indeed make a lot more sense 😅Good shout though, I didn't think of that one! Come to think of it, I don't think I used any of the conversion materia. Did you find a use for any of the others?
@@TheGameFatherUK Not really, haha
For free heals on hard mode equip the hp/mp conversion materia on a non-active party member and they will have over 6K mp so you can use that character to heal everyone after each fight.
Yep, this is a beast, definitely should have included it 🤦♂️
Great video
Cheers! Hope it was helpful!
Nice ! Im gonna have to channel dive this guy. Beat it no vids once now im going for a full run and your vids seem to be the go to .
Appreciate that! If you're about to start a replay I have a mega comparison of the best AP farming spots coming up in the next few days!
Geez thanks for these tips!
I already got the platinum and 100% Play Log, but apparently I just hit my head against the brick wall until it fell, because I didn’t use half of these strats. I’m on Ch. 12 of a new save file and I’m suddenly looking forward to hard mode now.
Great video you should have many more subs
Ah thanks, appreciate it :)
I'll need that Yuffie-Strat definitely for Platinum! :D
Holy smokes I forgot how those materia combinations work. Nasty!
When the stars align and the wards are down, it can be brutal 😎
Those are some really good tips that i might have to incorporate. Thanks.
Anyway, I always hear people say Gongaga is the best place to farm AP, but for me, it's the desert Corel Region. The little cactuar there gives you 12 AP each. I found a couple of areas where you can encounter 3 of them or 2 of them with a different enemy. Only small issue is its a annoyance to try and hit those little buggers..
id think giving barret first strike and chocoking cape and shortcut maximum fury should work. they cant dodge every bullet, i think!
Funny you should say that, I've just finished comparing all the best materia/ap farming spots in the game. The best one, by an absolute mile, is the bees in Nibel. They are absolutely crazy for AP (and EXP) farming.
@TheGameFatherUK I saw that one and it's pretty insane but I'm lazy. I don't want to constantly reload the game just to redo the side quest whenever the queen bee gets killed. (Even on hard) lol.
Thanks!
Oh hey! That's awesome of you, thanks very much! ☺️
Im here to give you a comment and a like but i am not going back through this game a second time. Maybe I'll rerun through the arena or replay some of my favorite moments, but rerunning the entire game on hard? I actually value my sanity
It's pretty rare to pump 130hrs into a single playthrough of a game, reach the end credits, and think "lets start again"
Rebirth is just such an amazing game that hits a special place in my soul
Don't forget you can also put HP - MP materia on a character you don't use, for a dedicated heal bot 😂
I definitely should have included that one, totally slipped me by 🤦♂️
This gives BG3 vibes. I had a familiar buffing me before leaving the camp :). Great stuff, man. Some of materias are a mystery for me in the sense why I should use them. I only used it for AP farming but your comment opened my eyes somehow :)
@@TheGameFatherUK I actually equipped HP - MP Materia on Cloud, because it gives him so little health that blocking any attack gives him a third of the limit gauge. Combined with reraise, all of the block materia, and the enhanced expeditionary medal, and he will spam limit breaks. Additionally, when performing a limit break, if you get hit it counts as a perfect block, so you can actvate limit when an enemy is about to hit you and (assuming they hit you 3 times) get your limit back.
Wow. That soothing breeze healing is actually crazy. Thanks for the tip. Definitely gonna use that
It's a literal lifesaver on some chapters :D
Playlisted 🔥
Nearly 200 hours in (almost getting the plat for it) and I'm still learning some new things. This game has a crazy amount of interactions between abilities, items and whatnot.
It's definitely a game with a huge amount of choice on how to play it. Hope you get the Plat, it's definitely one of the more challenging ones I've done!
also note, you can stack up different blue materia with same green, but you cannot stack 2x Magic Focus.
check the dmg with 1 pair and a 2nd one, dmg stays the same. wasted 2 slots.
You're right. I could have sworn I tested this with different results but just re-tested it and confirmed.
@@TheGameFatherUK i had the same idea and tested it, but it didnt work. later i saw your video and was wondering if i made a mistake testing. i tried to put the combination in armor, in weapon (coz why not testing) but always came to same result that only 1 pair is working.
@@TheGameFatherUK another note about the grinding, forget Gongaga, try the 1st Brutal in Chadley Sim (Army of the Damned) with following setup: Cloud or Aerith as Caster: Petrify Magnify, Petrify Swiftcast, 1st Strike + ATB Stagger and Chokobo King for 2 ATBs. quick bind Quaga.
Even if it says "Brutal" its easy AF and all 10 battles are 1-shot even if you go in naked. basically 10 fights under 40sec and hit re-challenge at the end.
@@Crazy-Jukebox I've stuck a pinned comment at the top about the double Magic Focus. I'll have a bash with your suggestion for the brutal. My only hesitation for that is if you have a lot of materia to level then you won't get the benefit of all characters receiving the AP. For targeted levelling on priority materia like swiftcast though, it could be golden!
@@TheGameFatherUK Tru. I grinded in the open world until i had less than 3 characters-worth of materia, then power-leveled in the combat sim
Holy hell, Fury Brand is in the game? Nice
Saved for later
Jesus I never realized how powerful Quaga + Magnify was. I relied on Firaga + Magnify as a holdover from Remake.
Yeah it's absolutely beastly, I was running around using Blizzard for the longest time but Quake stole the show in the end!
Very informative, and helpful as well, thanks for this one. It’s going to help me out a lot that’s for sure!! 😁
Glad to help! Hope you're enjoying the game!
@@TheGameFatherUK definitely enjoying! I’m 60 hours in and just started chapter 9, I’m completing this to the end! Thanks to you, feel like I’ll be able to tackle hard mode afterwards! 😁
You can actually keep arcane, radiant and ATB wards all stacked together and it works
TY!
I knew I loved this game and now I love it more
Suffering post-plat depression, wish I could play it over for the first time again!
Rubs hands. Oh, I'm gonna use all this!!!
I plan to make Tifa do her Stagger Queen DPS stuff while either Cloud or Aerith or Yuffie nuke stuff. It is how bosses melt lol
Take my like you gorgeous human
I took it and it was awesome! Thanks!
Awesome
you know I clicked on this being all smug like yeah tell me some obvious shit but hell, I learned some valuable stuff here. This absolutely improved my approach to some of the hard mode stuff I have yet to do.
Heh, love that! Glad it was useful!
Only 2 and a half minutes into the video and I'm already excited and stressed lol Pausing to try to figure out what the complete Aerith build is and how to get the materia I don't even have lol I don't think my ADD mind is going to take another 15 minutes of this
For the gongaga loop I found I only needed 1 ATB as quakera + yuffie with synergy linked to fire would kill every group.
They should also do a mode where you only have cloud in your team during battle, And call it Soldier mode.
Might prefer that over hard mode.
That would be really cool!
The game gives you two frog rings so you can do solo runs like this.
I really hope that the final game in the trilogy allows the classic “Mastered materia gives birth to new materia”
I kinda get why they blocked it for these first two games, but that was such a clutch feature in the original
Yeah it was a great thing in the OG, I really hope that comes back too!
@13:05 I can't even begin to explain how much stronger I felt after finishing all the manuscripts. Weapons levels scale amazing after level 8 it seems.
Yeah they do make a significant difference when they are all up to full power :)
My mind was blown with the first tip, I've been playing this all wrong
Do you happen too have these builds written somewhere on your social media platforms?
You can get a second chakra heal off with full atb. It will give you the 40% heal at low health before the first one actually heals you
Good tip! Thanks!
in remake, i beat pride and prejudice on both remake and integrade first time. it having lighting weakness making it stupid easy. the bahamut in its fight is harder than it. then we have weiss which is even easier to deal with, just play as tifa and equip her with parry materia and he is piece of cake. other story and non story bosses also not pushover. especially with that limit break accesory + refocus materia, both have 3 available for all 3 active party members.
This is BEYOND interesting!! I just need cheats for Queen's Blood at Gold Saucer and the piano and I'll be set
Piano cheat is having a second person do the other analog stick for you 😂
I got the genji materials but crafted a Cogwheel. Do i have to fight gilgamesh again to get the materials again?
Can you make video with your charaters with their current builds?
Im 155 hours in and i barely know combat. I know most of the minigames perfectly haha
Tiffa and Berry highly profit from the auto special ability materia.
I wonder if they're gonna patch the cushion trick, seems like an oversight if inns don't restore MP but fast travelling to a stop does
Yeah I'm not sure really. I suppose they didn't really need to worry about that in Remake since it was so linear. It's only beneficial in the open world because once you're deep into the story you can't fast travel to a chocbo stop. Chapters 13 and 14 are especially true of that with the chain of boss fights.
the mp benches only work for side content, so it's def deliberate imo; also only the first and last quests are actually hard, the rest were a cakewalk compared to them
Is it the speed at which you finish the battle that gives you the most AP? Ive noticed if I dont end it quickly the less AP I recieve. Im also P farming without Swiftcast.
Have you tried AP farming with the Bees in Nibel? It's verified as the fastest, most efficient method. Plus, you don't need swiftcast and can do it on easy difficulty. Just stick 2 enfeeblment rings on your other characters and be careful not to hit the queen much.
Using yuffies brumal form build, how does that make aerith cast spells without mp cost?
The Gotterdamerung is one of the hardest items to get in the game. If you have that you dont need any tips on how to play the game.
That's why I mentioned that the same limit siphon technique was just as possible with the limit boost accessory, it just takes longer to get going :)
@@TheGameFatherUK Completely filling the limit guage at the start of battle is a game changer compared to just having the boost. So like I said, once you have that accessory you can basically do any battle easily.
Soul Drain with Aerith during stagger for 12-15 mp
*Seeing the tip on using quake*
*Meanwhile I already maxed out all Materia with the loop, but used fire and Ice magic*
*Needed to use Arcane Ward on the Amphidex/Frightflower stop, cause one shot wasn’t nuking everything.*
*Quake nukes everything*
Kill. Me. Now.
Don't feel bad, in hindsight when I was grinding it was the slowest slog of my life. I've since found a much much better way with a setup that makes it super easy too. Video out this evening if you're interested :)
@@TheGameFatherUK Will check it out. Thank you.
How did you open up the materia menu to show everyone's materia all at once? @9:38
Make sure you're not actively viewing a character's materia, just the screen where you can select weapons etc, then press the touchpad :)
@TheGameFatherUK oh my god. Thank you. Didn't even know about this through my first playthrough.... lol
@@andrewlaguna5129heh, don't worry, I didn't notice you could do it for ages either 😅
Dude you saved me a lot of work! hahahaha
Ha! Glad I could be of help 😄
How do I reset the monsters in the gongaga loop? And why don't I get any mana back when I cast spell? How do I get mana back faster?
Since I made this video I did a bunch of comparisons on the most popular AP farming locations. Gongaga is still good, but the Bees in Nibel are much much better: ua-cam.com/video/6Z3nZu7iUWQ/v-deo.htmlsi=T0-83-VaowTsTqwH
As for your question about MP. You need to make sure you have the same spell materia paired in multiple slots on the same character. For example; say you're using Cloud and want to cast free Fire spells. You'd need to equip him with Fire+MP absorb as well as Fire+Magic Focus and Magnify+Fire. Make sure he has Magic Plus materia equipped & his Rune Blade for maximum magic power. The MP absorb materia will refund a percentage of the fire damage back as MP.
Game difficulty does also matter. If you're doing the Gongaga loop on easy, the mobs have little HP so you might not be able to hit them for much damage which means less MP returned.
@@TheGameFatherUK thanks!
I don’t seem completely immune to hits with Yuffie’s brumal form on atb ward when there’s more than 1 enemy at once near her. I’m using the shortcut window too, hm…
Guard bee farming for the win
Thanks mate, appreciate that!
Hi! do you have a video guide step by step on "bond of brothers" and "to be a hero" challenges?
I was going to make a series but honestly, you can't get much better than Optinoob's guides. They are really really good, you should check them out if you haven't already.
@@TheGameFatherUK o Just got the platinum thanks to him hahahah
@@jordanferreira5294 Congrats on getting it! It's certainly no easy feat!
If u linked hp absorption with enemy skill and used soothing breeze would that make u heal even faster ?
Good idea, but HP Absorb only works with offensive spells, would have been great though 😄
I remember using Synergy with Cure early on, but Aerith/Red kept losing their MP. I could swear Synergy was consuming their MP.
Interesting. The tooltip does say that it only works with offensive materia. I wonder if it does actually still work with others but uses mp?
14:02 - What are the materia loadouts for all the characters here please?
That would be one wall of text for all of them 😳
They all have HP up, MP up, Steadfast Block, Precision Defence Focus and Revive. Most of them have either Prayer or Chakra too. I change the rest depending on the encounter but generally speaking Cloud almost always has Elemental + Fire & Ice, Strength up, Luck up, Enemy Skill + HP Absorb and some kind of Magnify spell like Barrier or Time.
I usually have Aerith set either for healing with Magnify + Healing, Magic up, Magic Focus + Healing, Magic Efficiency + Healing and maybe a Swiftcast + Healing too. Otherwise if she's set for spell damage I'll swap healing for whichever offensive spell the enemy is weak to.
I haven't been able to find a single build that works throughout the entire game, I've tried, but it always seems to fail at some point.
