FFVII - Level 7 Tifa vs Diamond Weapon (NIIWNA)

NI = No Items
IW = Initial Weapon
NA = No Accessories

Armor: Wizard Bracelet
Materia: Restore, Throw, All=Time, Elemental=Fire, 2x HP Plus and Barrier.

This was an interesting battle. I needed a lot of materia for this battle, so 9 slots seemed little at one point. 7 of them were already occupied by absolutely necessary materia before HP/MP boostage and I needed at least one HP Plus to be able to survive the foot stamp attack. After trying and failing, I came to the conclusion that I really needed the other HP Plus and I had to drop the MP Pluses.

For some reason, the foot stamp is magical (which causes a lot of trouble for the No Materia challenge), so I needed MBarrier to survive it. Then you have to deal with his high dexterity, but thankfully, he can be slowed. Hasting Tifa can cause trouble, as the MBarrier will run and you have to put up a new one.

With 30 grand of HP, Coin is no longer that cheap, but if you want him to take any damage from it, you have to force him into Countdown mode. How do you do that? By using two limit breaks. The limit breaks also reduce his HP to below 29997, so that I can kill him with three Coin attacks. During Countdown, he only uses the fire ball attack.

you seem to know everything about every boss in this game.

I may try a FFVII challenge now when I am finnished with my LLGIE in FFXII. I have only done some normal playthrough + a perfect game in FF7

[GarlandTheGreat]

You're right, I do know everything about every boss in this game :P

I hope you try a FFVII challenge. Even though you may not know a lot about FFVII, it really helps to have experience from FF challenges in general. I learned that when I did NSGNSNCNO. Anyway, just ask me if you want some advice on what challenge to do ;)

I can imagine Cloud's reaction after he finds out what Tifa did with all his money X)

and you've forgotten to list e-skill :P

[Anverto90]

why didn't you replace the all materia with a mp plus materia? there is just one enemy/character...

[DreamgirlBlue]

Damn Tifa looks as beautiful as ever even with the old school graphic's :)

[marabushi123]

i never saw Diamond weapon when i played ff7 where was he.

[bilbus2]

cait sith could solo better than tifa

[jnth90]

this battle confuses me shouldn't tifa be at a higher level if she has somersault and shouldn't her attack bar go faster when she reaches limit

[LaraCroftPwnz]

great work :)

[youman23]

ok I'll admit that was cool but try something like that with a harder boss and weaker character like the ruby weapon and cait sith lol then we'll see

[uaetigers]

that was close

You mean Diamond Flash? That's the attack he uses at the end of the countdown, so if he'd gotten one more turn, he would have used it. It only deals percentage based damage, but it inflicts Silence, which would have been very bad for Tifa.
