FINAL FANTASY 7 REMAKE HARD MODE (JP) PART 49 - CHAPTER 15 & BOSS #10 VALKYRIE

2020-05-23 1

FF7 REMAKE OFFICIALLY HAS BEATEN OUT P5R IN THE RAZOR-CLOSE COMPETITION FOR GOTY 2020!

GOTY 2020: I MADE MY MIND UP ABOUT A WEEK AGO BUT THERE'S SOMETHING I NOTICED WHEN PLAYING PERSONA 5 ROYAL A SECOND TIME THAT IS EITHER GOING TO MAKE THINGS EVEN MORE RAZOR-THIN CLOSE OR CHANGE THE DECISION ALTOGETHER - STILL DELIBERATING!
IN THE QUEST TO GET ALL TROPHIES (ALL SIDEQUESTS, COSTUMES ETC.) DECIDED TO CHANGE THINGS TO JP LANGUAGE AND YES: HARD MODE!!!
ONE REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT MATERIA THAT WAS MISSED ON THE FIRST PLAYTHROUGH (GOOD THING 1 OF 2 WAS RETRIEVED): ELEMENTAL, WHICH IS VERY IMPORTANT AND ALSO IMPORTANT TO MAX OUT SO WAS SURE TO GET THAT!
LUCK UP (TWO OF THEM; GOT ONE OF TWO IN FIRST PLAYTHROUGH) IS SUPER IMPORTANT TOO, ALBEIT NOT AS IMPORTANT AS ELEMENTAL AND FOR SOME BATTLES MAXED-OUT WARDING (BUT WARDING IS EASY TO GET)
ALSO REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT FOR SOME OF THE HIGHER-LEVEL BATTLES IS THE WARDING MATERIA – COULD MAKE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 50% OF THE TIME WARD AND 100% IMMUNITY

FEW GOOD THINGS I STILL REMEMBER THAT SERVED AS CRITICAL TAKEAWAYS THAT MADE HARD MODE NOT AS DIFFICULT IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER:
• CURE + MAGNIFY IS PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT SETUP WHEN YOU HAVE 2 OR MORE CHARACTERS
• ENEMIES INVARIABLY ATTACK THE PERSON IN CONTROL (AND THE ONES AUTO-DEFENDING USUALLY DO A BETTER JOB THAN YOU CAN MANUALLY) SO IT’S GOOD TO SOMETIMES HAVE THEM TRY TO GO BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN CHARACTERS
• VERY IMPORTANT: YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU NEED A CHARACTER TO CAST HEALING OR ARISE SO SHOULD ALWAYS TRY IN DIFFICULT/BOSS BATTLES TO HAVE SUPPORT CHARACTERS (MOST NOTABLY TIFA BECAUSE SHE’S PRETTY USELESS AS WELL AS AERITH) WITH AT LEAST 1 BAR ACTIVE AT ALL TIMES
• SWITCHING TO PUNISHER AND SIMPLY BLOCKING IS AN AUTO BLOCK+COUNTER SO THIS CAN NOT ONLY PREVENT DMG BUT WARD IT BACK
• QUICK WAY TO DO GOOD DMG THAT SHOULDN’T BE OVERLOOKED IS BARRET’S OVERCHARGE ATTACK; NOT GOOD TO LEAVE IT UNUSED SO IT’S GOOD TO UNLOAD THAT AS SOON AS IT’S READY!
• THAT’S ALL I CAN THINK OF ^_^!
