Keep healing Cloud every second turn (or when you think that Rufus could take him out in two hits or less). Your limit break is your friend, as well as magic materia. | ||||

There are many variables that go into generating the HP of this version of Sephiroth. To learn more, visit FF:OSG. | ||||
Strategy | ||||
Safer Sephiroth uses a great number of attacks, each with grevious effects. He can lower your HP down to 1 using Heartless Angel, inflict great damage with various attacks, or use his most impressive spell, Super Nova (not only is it powerful, but it also inflicts status ailments. And it’s so beautiful that you’re not even mad at him for using it against you). Starting off the battle with Big Guard and Safer-Sephiroth will also respond to each spell cast on him by casting Destruct materia to your advantage by bringing it down in between spells. Sephiroth can also cast Dispell on himself to negate any bad status you could inflict on him, so don’t bother with that.
This is your last battle, so do not hesitate in terms of means: use your Megalixirs after a Heartless Angel attack, and use your most powerful Limits everytime you can. He’s not the toughest boss ever, but he can kill you if you’re not careful. | ||||

This boss is joined by lesser minions called Sample:H0512 opt, who should be outright ignored. The minions can be revived, and just do small Roll Attacks, so focus on attacking the large one in the center. His main attack is Shady Breath, which isn’t all that bad. Attack physically, or use magic; they have no real weaknesses or strengths otherwise. | ||||
Sample:H0512 opt ![]() | Level | HP | MP | Attacks |
7 | 300 | 48 | Rolling Attack | |
Absorbs | Blocks | Strong Against | Weak Against | |
Steal | Morph | Win Item | Enemy Skill | |
EXP | AP | Gil | Location | |
20 | 2 | 0 | Shinra Tower | |
Immune to Status | Notes | |||
Strategy | ||||
It's best to ignore these smaller ones, and focus on the big enemy they accompany. They revive anyway, so there's no point in killing them. | ||||
