Ten things I have learned while playing the Final Fantasy 7 remake on hard mode.
1. MP is a precious resource and is ONLY restored fully at the start of new chapters.
2. Items can’t be used at all so having revival materia on everyone is pretty much mandatory.
3. Steadfast block materia should be mastered and equipped by all active party members at all times.
4. Prayer materia should be your main source of healing, pairing HP absorb with something it pairs with works as well.
5. Barret’s lifesaver skill lives up to its name, use it and abuse it!
6. Bahamut is a d!ck in this mode, the whisper version especially since Barret isn’t available for that part.
7. I pretty much died every battle on my first attempt, it seems a lot of enemies require specific strategies in hard mode; also timing is everything.
8. I still have yet to find an enemy that either lives long enough for its stagger bonus to be raised up to 300 % or more, or one that remains staggered long enough to get it that high.
9. So many materia combos and never enough slots.
10. You will be changing the element linked to elemental materia pretty much before every battle and not using it at all for certain boss fights.
Also I’m man crushing on Biggs so hard it’s not even funny!
