What's your favorite Materia combo? List 'em like how I'm going to list one of my favorites.

"The Counterer"
Set-up:
Weapon:
Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack
Armor:
Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack, Counter-Attack
Description:
Pretty obvious. Each time your character is stricken, each of your Counter-Attacks will incite a physical strike. Make sure that they are all mastered or you probably won't get them all to fire off and as a result you will be wasting materia space. Anyway, if you use your characters Ultimate Weapon you'll end up doing 159,984 points of damage, seeing as they almost always do 9999 per hit. It's amazing and hilarious.


"Hell Storm"
Set-up:
Weapon:
Fire = All, Fire = Quadra Mgc., Fire = MP Turbo, Fire = Mgc. Counter
Armor:
Fire = Added Cut, Fire = Steal as Well, Fire = HP absorb, W-Mgc., Mgc. Plus,
Description:
This materia combination puts even Ifirit to shame. It'll work no matter what you put in place of Fire (and if you put Ultima, which targets ALL automatically, you can save two materia slots and put in something else of your choosing), but it looks cooler when it's fire. Make sure that all the magics are mastered, and you'll end up striking with 8 Fire3's with a boost in their power (MP Turbo), as well as attempting to steal eight times and slashing with your weapon twice every time you get hit. Not only that, but you'll gain some HP back too (HP absorb). How ironic that this attack is referred to as "cool."



So, what's your guys' favorite combinations?

- PTM

Yeah, your first one is how I beat Ruby Weapon. :)

I like to do a variation on that sometimes: 8 mastered counterattacks on the armor and 4 Counters linked to Mugs on the weapon.

Knight�s of the round-quadra magic + W summon it will do the summon EIGHT times muhahaha

Knight�s of the round-quadra magic + W summon it will do the summon EIGHT times

No it wont! It will hit only 2 times. Knights of the Round cannot be used with quadra magic.

i like having master summon equiped with mp absorb, phoenix and final attack, master command with steal as well, i have (magic)counter with Knights of the Round and on my armor i have hades and added effect (i use the rest for higher hp, speed, magic, or for a[some] counteratack[s], or i use them to levil up materia)

Death Combo!! (Ment for Cloud w/ Ultima Weapon equipped, all mastered)

WEAPON:
Hades-Added Effect
Contain-Added Effect
Time-Added Effect
Counter Attack
Counter Attack

ARMOR:
5 Counter Attacks
Double-Cut (mastered)
Magic Counter-Restore

This will make you counter for each attack at least once(if you are very unlucky) and very often cause status. Also, with quad cut, you randomly deal out 9999 dmg and cause status. Since its Cloud, he won't be at maximum effectiveness if his HP is low, so a mastered magic counter + restore gives you extra HP each time you are attacked...and I can't remember if it counters with Regen...

Well, anyway, hope u like it.

I have Counter attack, first attack, and some others i can't remember equipped, and I usually win without even touching the controller. If I get attacked first, I still attack first and win. If I attack first, the enemy doesn't even have a chance to retaliate. it's a win-win situation. This is how i beat ff7 while playing my GBA. And my mom said you couldn't play two games at once. ha! I beat FF7 (PSX) and FF Legend (GB) at the same time. I'm not called the Final Fantasy Master for nothing, ya know. *LOL*

Final Attack=Phoenix

(this is usually good when you're up against Ruby and Emerald Weapon... -if you end up fainting, you can manage to attack once more by summoning Phoenix and you are instantly, fully recovered with life2 that it casts on all members. this practically makes you invinsible until your usage of final attacks expire.)

I dont really use materia when i get high enough to just attack with a weapon and dothe same damage :)

Well I use mime for limits, and thats about it besides the All:Cure
