      THis guide helped me defeat this daunting challenge! took me like 3 tries due to bad luck with Gilgamesh (Didn't get Resist up in time) and then Sephy being mean on the 2nd attempt (and I kinda messed up by using Lifesaver too early)

    This guide worked wonders, thank you! It took me quite a few tries, as Sephiroth wrecked me. A tip for everyone: on Sephiroth, don't cast ATB ward too quickly, as Aerith could get interrupted. You can take a little bit of extra time. If you rush, the party members might be in the wrong places and get interrupted, ruining your attempt.
    Also, RNG might screw you, but don't give up. You will get a run where everything falls into place. Good luck everyone!

    Tip for other people seeing this

      I don't get it either, it's literally just there to waste your time. I think this game might have the worst post-game content I've ever seen if you consider how much time it wastes, how obnoxious it is to complete, and the fact that it's all just recycled content you've already done several times already. Like, at least other games have new dungeons or music in their postgames, Rebirth is just like "fight all of the minibosses and bosses in a row over and over, okay?"

  • @LightningShiver
    @LightningShiver Před měsícem +15

    I made two small changes that made the difference.
    A) Drop MP up on Aerith. You do not need it with infinite mana and in stead use a ATB boast materia at the start of every battle. If ATB ward fails at start if battle (e.g. interrupted) you have a 2nd chance/ATB bar to try again and your run is not screwed. Otherwise you are ahead in the engine for Gilgamesh/Sephiroth.
    B) Also put Barrier and magnify on Yuffi. With Gil/Seph fight you can cast manawall with both or either Yuffi/Barret. You cannot interupt both chars at the same time when casting manawall.
    Furthermore always use tactical mode to slowndown time and read the moves and the field. You got a loooooot of time in slow mode so use it!
    Almost never change characters in battle but command their abilities/ spells from your CURRENT (e.g Yuffi) active character. That way you always can go back to brumal form straight away and have less lag between switching sceens/chars.
    Last don't be scared to go wrong; every fight has basically the same input order. Learn and master it so you get a kind of muscle memory for it.
    Took me 1/2 a day to get it right.

    • @Monty2289
      @Monty2289 Před měsícem +1

      Is it wise to consider Revival or is it just too slow. I probably need to take another crack but the other fights are child's play I had a close call with Gil because he does something that effective hurts you and that's break the circuit for the set up with his own stun move. If it didn't exist this would be 100% but because he can do this an his damage output it feels like if he hits anyone before Manawall is up you lose.
      I've read that you can ignore arcane ward. in some of this namely again Seph. I may do it to save one ability cast + bar. Same if Barrett can get 1 ATB with ATB with ward up and choose Faith over Manawall. He can one shot us so it feels like it doesn't matter. And maybe I can try to save barrett's life in the stun so he can set Manawall later or even better get lucky and if he becomes Chain target I get to cast Arcane ward
      I dunno.

    ADVICE FOR SEPHIROTH:
    Do this to make Sephiroth „fly“ and so he doesn’t really has a chance to chain you:
    1. Haste to Yuffie
    2. ATB Ward to Yuffie
    3. Spam Brumal as fast as you can
    4. Arcane Ward to Aerith
    5. Spam again Brumal
    6. Firaga as soon as Aerith got 2 ATBs full
    7. Spam Brumal and repeat 6
    When you have time for Barret, than Manawall and so on
    But it’s important to make Sephiroth fly with Firaga over and over again. This was the game changer for me.

Just when I thought I had a general idea on combat, here comes your tips and tricks lmao. I have since cleared all Combat Sims (Thank God), but these and your Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and Aerith solo Combat Sims were the jumpstart for making me feel like I never truly knew how far you can go with Materia.

    Thanks so much for this guide! Guys, an important thing to remember for Sephi is Aerith HAS to keep him stunned locked with spells (fire, then blizz as the guide says), otherwise he will go right back to his Chain attack. Keeping Aerith from going afk for a couple seconds is more important than focusing on buffs (except for the beginning of the fight of course)

    Probably took me 10 hours to beat this one using this build. I gave Aerith a revive materia which came in handy on my successful run, and both Yuffie and Barret had chakras which was very useful. Another tip that helped was to only cast barrier (not manawall) for Gilgamesh and Sephiroth, it’s all you need and it’s a much faster cast.

      Same here. The moment I switch from barret to yuffie, he charges her and I can’t build atb. Then he chains someone almost immediately. Then when octoslash is done, if anyone is left alive, shadowy chains immediately again.

      I just beat him. After casting haste, before switching to Yuffie, I just let Sephi charge Barret, then I switched. This drew his attention away from Yuffie long enough to build atb. Barret died after octoslash, but I still managed to kill him.

    With no ATB concerns, simply use drain w/ Aerith a couple times when the bosses are about to die (unless you are in a bad spot and need to win).. you will never run out of MP. You could also utilize pray / synergies (When safe) as the unlimited MP is helpful but so is raising LB limits. Aeriths planet protection saved me on a couple of my wins

  • @toysouldier1
    @toysouldier1 Před 3 měsíci +37

    How to single-handidly create the most dogshit bossfights in existence:
    1. Make it so you have to fight 3 waves of 2 bosses in a row even though the combat system was clearly designed around only fighting one. And make the last 2 fights equally as frustrating by giving them random, unavoidable attacks which can one-shot you.
    2. Give these bosses a million hitpoints, that way they take forever to kill.
    3. Make them spam you with attacks that deal more than half your health and make it impossible for you to use commands since you'll likely be stunlocked or interrupted before you're finished casting.
    4. Do everything in your fucking power to make fighting these bosses the most miserable experience on earth and make the most viable method to beating them a literal cheese method which involves exploiting one characters' broken ability.
    Seriously, what the fuck were Square Enix thinking when they made these? Who the hell thought these fights were acceptable?

      Being a huge fan of the OG FF7 I felt somewhat the same at first playing remake/intermission. but once you get the hang of it and know a little how to properly use your abilities and materia it actually becomes a lot of fun imo, especially rebirth is pretty good i think, the fights can be super hard if you don't use the right setup. but as Optinoob proved many times and showed us in his videos, there are ways to make things considerably more easy to a point where it's actually becoming a lot of fun to do these fights

Since my last comment, I've retried about 5 or 6 times lol and each time Gilgamesh got me but this time he really calmed down compared to the other runs.
    I absolutely love your guides man, they are so accessible to anyone. I love the way you describe things and make things so much easier. Sephiroth was constantly shadow chaining me but I made sure Barrett was last to get chained, threw Manawall up as quick as I could (even if it was practically near the beginning of it being in effect) and as soon as he Octaslashed me I curaga'd with Aerith.
    Gave Aerith swiftcast - healing instead of the second fire-magic focus and then removed MP up and HP up and put Magnify and healing instead for the extra heal capacity.
