Bro that's so true...like I thought I was good and then *bam.* I'm shit. I'm ass. My response times? Wack. My materia setting? Wack. My stats? Wack. My quick commands? Wack.
Hey, at least Weiss and Nero can finally say they were in a good FF7 game. Also, man I have a theory now. This isnt just a remake of FF7. Its a remake of everything FF7. Just need a Zack DLC to focus on CC and I'm correct. Also since no time ghosts, Yuffie totally fought and beat Nero before joining Team Highwind. That is now canon.
I'm almost kinda worried that they'll know about Cloud going all crazy, causing Aerith to run away, leading to her death and that they'll get Zack to help fight Sephiroth instead, or something weird like that. Which I don't think I'd like too much.
The only reason it looked easy is cuz he possibly cheated by entering the battle with half limit bar already filled. That's not normal. You entered with 0 limit like everyone else
@@corymatela that's not a cheat, it's the effect of the gotterdamerung. Normally you start with full limit and increased limit gains, but this battle specifically halves the effect of gotterdamerung.
And now thanks to this game we know: Cloud, Barret, Tifa, Aeirth, Reeve, and now Yuffie witnessed the Plate fall personally. Its likely Cid saw it on TV. Making it possible, Vincent is the only party member to not witness the Plate fall in any form. Emo bitch slept through everything.
What I recommend using is the superstar belt accessory on cloud or tifa. Once he uses the insta kill on you and u revive everybody will have their ultimate.
@@Cybernetic800 That was a dream, it also gets the fanback of your base who don't want them becoming complete good guys while letting us play as one of the coolest in the franchise.
Damn man, good shit. At first I was wondering why I wasn’t getting that much damage from the first stagger but then I saw you used the limit. Good stuff though, gonna give it another go later tonight. Have you done the Pride and Joy 0.5 yet?
Pride and joy level is not too bad. The hardest fight is bahamut, if you’ve leveled your materia to max, you should get it relatively quick. I do recommend elemental materia linked with fire on the armor so whenever Ifrit comes out, you can use him as a healing station. Works super well for the pride and joy when he leaves fire puddles on the floor too. Good luck!
@@InsomniaVirus_ Just did both Weiss, and Pride and Joy. Weiss is definitely more difficult but not too bad once you get his party down. Also skipping the 3rd phase is crucial, try to kill him before that. Pride and Joy was honestly not too bad, more than half the fight I just threw Yuffie’s weapon while her partner does a lot of the attacking. I would say save your summon for Pride and Joy cause he gets a little crazy once he goes below half health
Phase 1 was killer for me. Just couldn't get him stunned. Finally started to "get it" and can stagger him, but then Phase 2 I'm having the same issue. But I think I see how to cure it now.....
I’m happy to see a though boss in ff7 remake!!! He kicked my butt in minutes in my only try!!! When I have another time to play, definitely will get kicked a few times more until realize what fits better for me to win!!! As a Souls game lover it’s an honor to face this boss with the amazing and beautiful combat system of FF7R…. Bro, you did a hell of a great job and loved the way you dodged a few of his moves so badass!!!
Few notes: This fight is not too hard. I got this on my 5th attempt. Wasn't too much cheese but more of just rush down and stun. There is a 3rd phase he has which i didn't even trigger which you really don't want to trigger. Also showed the stuff I used for the fight. No way perfect but it deffo helped
Great job but saying this wasn't that hard is absolutely false lol. I platinumed sekiro and even ng+3 Glock Saint was much easier than Weiss. I beat Isshin in 10 or so tries, Weiss took me at least 20 maybe more. Props to square for making one hell of a send off super boss to part 1.
Hojo uploaded his mind to the computer originally and then the events of Deepground happened later. because this remake seems to be all the timelines and different games, that means Hojo is either already dead but uploaded his mind or he found a way to do it while still alive. it does hint earlier that they made copies of Nero and Weiss, so maybe Hojo has a digital copy of himself and he merged with Weiss already as part of another experiment. the other guess is there is another universe and the two are somehow crashing into eachother. the arbiters of fate are dead, so maybe cloud and his gang somehow broke the timeline and this will be the new story.
The Gotterdamerung accessory. The briefing before you fight Weiss says it has no effect but in reality it halves the regular abilities of it, meaning the limit gauge starts at half and charges half as slow.
@@BAustinize well not all ff7 fan hate it some do like it and it was one of the reason this game has a remake it's because we need more details about it the whole story of it
Finally managed to beat the GUY!! 4 hours of constant trying done the job. I must admit this boss is just too difficult and you need lots of luck in the battle, couldn't beat him without the limit break accessory as every single time when his HP was nearly gone to zero he shifted the pose and started healing automatically leaving me with no more MP to spare... Managed to beat him under 4 minutes but this was one hell of a task! Good luck to the rest of you!
Insomnia Virus you can attack sephi all you want, he is tanking like a boss, while weiss is sent flying like a ragdoll - implying Sephi is a heavyweight while weiss is feather
@@multivact3729 off course the main boss is hard to stagger than other bosses in this game what i mean is weiss is alive and sephiroth is dead Sephiroth was stronger when he was alive in Crisis Core
I simply can't get the dodge timing right. Honestly to make a boss fight where you cant deal damage and treat this like a soulsborne when your button inputs aren't as responsive as a soulsborne is moronic
@@eh6194 I've tried backwards, forwards, left, right, just missing: shaking it all about and doing the hokey pokey 😂 I've tried timing it to the prompt of the unblockable move or to the sheer moment he moves his arms, nothing seems to work And honestly I don't care since its not the point of this game in my view at least
I’ve tried once and did no damage and got fuckin obliterated hahaha so hard to come Back to the regular game after using yuffie 😂 never been good at dodging in the remake this boss is gonna be a hell of a challenge
@@keithpeterson3805 each move has a specific direction you have to dodge. When he uses stab dodge toward him to leap over his head. Evisceration dodge back. Crosswise Cleave u dodge to the side. Takes a bit too get down but u got this. When he whips out the gun spam magic
Now wait a minute... so I guess NO one else noticed he entered the battle with HALF limit bar full already? That's why the battle was so easy. This is not normal. I think this is a cheat cuz limit bars are 0 at the beginnings of the battle
Clearly u haven't played the game to realise that there is a accessory that gives you full limit at the start of each fight but this fight only half is filled up....
This boss is the epitome of Bullshit cheap shit. Hes not even a fun fight cause of how BS his mechanics are ive seen him use Immaculate end TWO TIMES in a ROW

When you beat the main story and DLC without much trouble and start to think you're good at the game... Weiss reminds you that you do in fact suck
Yes..true..
Bro that's so true...like I thought I was good and then *bam.*
I'm shit. I'm ass. My response times? Wack. My materia setting? Wack. My stats? Wack. My quick commands? Wack.
Seriously got everything maxed out and got washed
Seeing Weiss get flogged in 0:23 seconds realising I have to improve
No shit Sherlock and yes I know this comment is too years old

@@MadLustEnvy only after the last chapter when they beat the arbiters of fate :/
I mean Zack is back in part 2 of the remake so I guess that is something
It’s a sequel to the original FFVII. All of the things that happened in the PS1 game still happened. This is all after Advent Children.
Ya.
I'm almost kinda worried that they'll know about Cloud going all crazy, causing Aerith to run away, leading to her death and that they'll get Zack to help fight Sephiroth instead, or something weird like that. Which I don't think I'd like too much.
U made that look easy. Weiss is beatin the breaks off me
I cant beat him I only damage him like 1 point.
@Only 1/2 of The Story Ok, thanks.

I have been trying this all night and can’t beat this dude. Ughhhhhh
Vincent Valentine is nearby i feel it.
Nope. They said they wouldn't release another DLC before PART 2. Maybe after Part 2.
Yea they said he’s asleep. They’re not bringing him
He is still in that ⚰
A
And now thanks to this game we know: Cloud, Barret, Tifa, Aeirth, Reeve, and now Yuffie witnessed the Plate fall personally. Its likely Cid saw it on TV. Making it possible, Vincent is the only party member to not witness the Plate fall in any form. Emo bitch slept through everything.
Took me 5 hours and 9 minutes but I finally did it! Thanks for the vid, it really helped me figure out a strategy!
Seems like this guy just got incredibly lucky that he never cast his giant orb in phase 2.
I finally managed to do it with my magic build team. Tifa's parry and arcane ward are freaking amazing for this fight.
Wow! You did it?. Congrats!. I cant even pass him!.
This strategy works. I used the same method and essentially got lucky. Thanks for looking out
It’s based on a large degree of luck
Which sucks
@@DigimonVids can't argue with that lol. I've seen others beat them rather fast but they had materia maxed out which I didn't. It's still doable
This is unbelievable. Amazing fight record
What I recommend using is the superstar belt accessory on cloud or tifa. Once he uses the insta kill on you and u revive everybody will have their ultimate.
I can definitely see Angeal or Genesis being a battle in this
thats honestly what I expected..that or a Turks DLC,
@@Greatsharkbite I'd love a Turks dlc where you play as Reno
@@Cybernetic800 That was a dream, it also gets the fanback of your base who don't want them becoming complete good guys while letting us play as one of the coolest in the franchise.
I can't wait to form a team of yuffie, Vincent and Tifa. The next game can't come soon enough.
Thanks, I was able to complete this by replicating what you did :)
Damn man, good shit. At first I was wondering why I wasn’t getting that much damage from the first stagger but then I saw you used the limit. Good stuff though, gonna give it another go later tonight. Have you done the Pride and Joy 0.5 yet?

How is this even possible if hobo is still alive
Hojo uploaded his mind to the computer originally and then the events of Deepground happened later. because this remake seems to be all the timelines and different games, that means Hojo is either already dead but uploaded his mind or he found a way to do it while still alive. it does hint earlier that they made copies of Nero and Weiss, so maybe Hojo has a digital copy of himself and he merged with Weiss already as part of another experiment. the other guess is there is another universe and the two are somehow crashing into eachother. the arbiters of fate are dead, so maybe cloud and his gang somehow broke the timeline and this will be the new story.
Good question because idk...
Because Weiss is his own character before Hojo took over his body, what we see here is the original Weiss
Should've put Deadly Dodge with HP Absorption. It does nothing because there's no right materia attached next to it.
Basically if you can't end this in the second phase, it's over.
Not really. People have survived it
@@CGInferno Is there anything that works besides Reprieve/Revival Earrings? I don't have a PS5 and I'm assuming those are the only options.
@@95dubstepfan nope, nothing else works since he does 9999 with that attack
And to think Vincent fought this guy solo.
What the hell? Weiss?! What has been going on since I last played this game? Am I going to see Azul next???
Smh ... How many times you died to get like this?
The music style is so XIII-ish lol
XIII's lead composer also worked on Dirge of Cerberus, which is why they sound similar
MASASHI GANG
@@kieranray5340 Don't forgot Dirge of Cerberus came first so we can say anything from Final Fantasy XIII is Dirge of Cerberus-ish.
@@kieranray5340 And Hamauzu has a ton of tracks in Remake as well!
Would counterstance work better than parry?
Yes, 10x better
I heard he can't be countered because none of his attacks can be guarded.
I don't know this Weiss character but he looks like the result of Sephiroth mating with Knuckles. Anyone know that particular stamp in the timeline?
How did you go into battle with limit halfway filled
you need to beat pride and joy in the simulator to get the limit accessory
The Gotterdamerung accessory. The briefing before you fight Weiss says it has no effect but in reality it halves the regular abilities of it, meaning the limit gauge starts at half and charges half as slow.
@@henryduncan5007 I figured it out I beat him yesterday
Weiss is hojo rite?? From dirge of cerberus ??
not yet hojo takes over his dead body in dirge of cerberus so in this game weiss is weiss.
nope hojo was trying to take his body but he can't control it
and Dying Nero will merge with Weiss
Ugh dirge of cerberus is so bad and they take what made it bad and dump it in remake
@@BAustinize well not all ff7 fan hate it some do like it and it was one of the reason this game has a remake it's because we need more details about it the whole story of it
My characters are all leveled up but I dont have all of the manuscripts. Is it possible to do this without them?
Yeah still possible
Make me wonder who be the true final boss of FF7R
I know I'm spoiling myself but do I fight him on hard mode?
If you had Sephiroth in yer team i bet you'd beat Weiss and Nero in an Instant. XDDD
is this hard mode only
Yes
How do you dodge/block his “stab” move, he keeps spamming that on my game
Parry material + forward dodge when he charge towards you
Or as soon as he is about to connect dodge forward and you’ll hop over his back
I hope i can see this boss in crisis core
I can’t believe i spent more than 10 hours just on this boss. Never playing it again lol
How long till you got this good at the game
What's the loadout being used during this fight? Attempting this currently and getting crushed. Last trophy to go. Thanks in advance.
Check the end of the video
What is the "Deepground"?
How do you get to this level I never Seen this level
You can't use yuffie?
Yuffie is only in the dlc
Anyone know equipment/materia setup?
I find cloud is hard to dodge. Any guide on dodge?
How do I get a new limit break ?
Any helpme with this boss? With shareplay
I cant

2 gotterdammerungs ? Wow...
He's not tougher than Bahamut in this game idk where folks are getting that idea from.
Dude Bahamut was a cake walk if you just attack and parry this dude is insane
