YouTube user THE GAMER EYES shared a video of the PS5 "Final Fantasy 7 Remake Interlude" hidden boss "Weiss", the strategy method and the main points of the magic crystal used are as follows:
The video address
- If you want to challenge "Weiss", you need to complete the "Yuffie" DLC first, and then enter the battle simulator of chapter 17 through the chapter selection to select the new Hard difficulty limited three-player challenge mission at the bottom
- Weiss in the double-bladed form will use an undefendable attack, and there will be a move prompt before the move. The video uses Claude and Tifa's equipped "Iron Wall" magic crystal (holding down R1 and pressing the circle to perform special avoidance) to avoid at the right time, plus Alice's highest level of equipment "shield" magic crystal responsible for adding "wall" Buff to the two to reduce damage. After successful evasion, Weiss will enter a brief Heat state, at which point he can attack with the ATB skill that causes exhaustion under flat A 1-2. After successfully entering the exhausted state, you can rely on Tifa's "Positive Fist" and Alice's "Trial Ray" to increase the damage multiplier and the extreme skill for output.
- Weiss in artillery form is immune to physical attacks, the video uses Claude and Tifa equipment attributes + fire/ice/thunder/wind magic to save ATB bars through general attacks, plus Alice uses magic arrays to release two consecutive spells for output, during which it is necessary to personally operate Claude and Tifa to attract Weiss firepower. The cannon-shaped Weiss moves slowly, allowing even ice magic to hit easily.
