FF7 Rebirth - Biological Intel: Head Case - SIMPLE trick for an EASY win (Mindflayer)

- How to kill Mindflayer for Biological Intel: Head Case without killing the adds on Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth in the combat simulator.
Mindflayer must be killed before the Varghidpolis’. The trick to this battle is to equip someone with the First Strike Materia and Magnify paired with Binding. This allows you to cast Sleep which will keep the Varghidpolis’ out of the battle so you can focus entirely on the boss.
You can easily pressure and stagger the boss by using a synergy ability in which you can kill Mindflayer in one phase. Use Tifa’s Unbridled Strength and buff Cloud with Sonic Boom from the Enemy Skill materia. Once you have 3 synergy bars, activate a synergy ability, then use Focus Thrust to stagger Mindflayer. Spam triangle on Tifa for Rise & Fall and Omnistrike, then finish the boss off with any damaging ability.
Once Mindflayer is dead, you’ve really already won. Don’t worry if the Varghidpolis’ use deafening screech followed by self immolation, they can only kill 2 of your 3 party and die using it.

Man, wish there was a combat option that your party members only attack a target that you have locked on to
That would be extremely useful!
Like gambits? Yeah.
They could even make that a materia tbh. It would be so useful that you could easily justify having to give up a materia slot on a character to focus on the Leader's target.
This mission alone will show you how bad the ai is. I put everything to sleep ai is always going after Small mobs to wake em up
You're telling me. I didn't collect fiend Intel as I moved along through the story and had to use the HPMP materia and enfeeblement rings to get my other members KO'd so I could guard the monsters into stagger state and not have the other members constantly attacking until the fiends died. Lol
This single mission shows exactly how flawed the targeting and lock on system is in this game.
Not so much that but the party ai going rogue and attacking whatever they want.
If there was a way to have them focus target so that party members would focus down the one we’re targeting would make this much simpler.
Yeah, it has it flaws, but not for one battle is like that the whole game lol
@@darshio8307 what? fights where you're negatively impacted by your party attacking things at random are very rare, so not really sure what you're talking about.
@@aeolussvichi7680 exactly, even a command to have them hang back temporarily would've been enough, then you can command them to go back on the offensive and do their own thing again. That would have fixed the few situations their AI gets in the way
Uh no. The targeting system is fine and helps a lot in all other battles. It’s only frustrating for this ONE battle because it’s giving you the condition of not killing the adds before you kill the boss. It’s a challenge, it’s supposed to be hard.
Put it on easy mode, spam unbridled strength with tifa and omni strike. Takes it out on 6/7 hits.
Based comment should pin this.
Exactly what I did and don't feel bad about putting it on easy one bit. Stupid ass scenario
Or just get good loo
Yep, put it on easy. This was a stupid stupid challenge 😂
@@hobbsm666 nah not worth it when the design is shit. they put two enemies with like 5 hp next to a mini-boss who phases in and out. i feel like square's play testers are just masochists. this shit is not fun at all
Don't worry people, there is a super EASY way to get this, got it my first try after hours of pain.
Choose 3 characters and 2 of them put on the Enfeeblement ring (turn you into a Toad). Then with the one without the Toad ring, attack the Mindflayer then move away from the other guys to draw him away from those little shits. I used Tifa but you can use whoever, and just harry the shit out of him to get him staggered, I had a Limit break around the time he was staggered and got him in 1.
The toads won't be affected by those little shits so you have all the time in the world to kill the Mindflayer. I also used Chakra to heal but you can use cure if needed.
It's super EASY this way. Stop stressing
TY! After an hr of trying several methods, I managed to get it after a couple attempts with this. Toad ftw
This is the best strat hands down.
Worked first try. Thank you for this.
Gosh you’re lifesaver! Got it at the 2nd try 🎉🎉🎉
This strategy is gold. You, Sir, are a legend.
Got the enemy skill totally works. Have to reapply sleep once or twice but thankfully AI backs off well enough. Huge help keep up the great work
Glad it was helpful! It's such an outlying combat sim battle, the others are much easier.
Lol not my ai. My ai is like hey sleeping enemy let's go wake it
Mine keep attacking them while they are asleep
thx so much for this. I've been struggling so much over and over! even after using the sleep skill trick i read online from someone else. But watching how you did it finally made it possible. Thanks a lot for sharing your ways!
Glad to help and glad you got it 😁
Amazing guide! You got me through this frustrating fight!
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the guide. I thought of stop but it only works for about 10 seconds and then they’re free again so I knew I was on the right way of thinking
What's frustrating about this is that the challenge is, "fight against the game's systems." Your party members will do everything in their power to actively work against you in these annoyingly specific combat challenges.
I had to put this in my watch later so I wouldn't lose this video amongst the rabbit hole I get myself in. Used it today and it worked second try. First try they woke up before I got the synergy ready and someone auto attacked them. Worked the second time tho. Thanks.
Glad you managed to get it! It can definitely be a bit of a pain when the AI cancels your CC :/
Hey we have this really great game on our hands, should we throw in a side mission that completely unnecessarily puts its worst mechanic on full display???
"Yes, yes we should"
Basically rebirth every 30 to 45 mins. "Lets throw a monkey wrench into the depths of the soul of our game" (see temple prayer collection)
I just finished this on dynamic and I am so happy I won’t experience this absolute shitfest again in my life
Same here. Guessing the dynamic difficulty made this challenge even more unholy. This and the sit-up challenge are the worst missions to get through in the game.
Mindflayer is my favorite enemy to fight
Giving you a sub because you made my frustration and pain disappear. Thank you sir 🎉
Thank you. I tried every method, including this one, but could not pass it without someone taking out a satellite. I came back to this strategy and passed it with Cloud (elemental-lightning armor), Tifa, and Yuffie. Luckily, my team did not attack a satellite and I had to mindful of their countdown…which was passed one when I finished off the Mindblast.
Great guide, and well explained. I wasn’t able to do it on dynamic after like 20 attempts so I switched to easy and it worked like a charm
Cheers mate! Grats on getting it done, it's a right pain!
Pro tip: use Barret and use Bones Round with his overcharge and use Focus Blast with that the pressure bar will fill up even faster
Ahh that was a great idea! Magnify-sleep. Thanks, I was able to pull it off. This is the only time I’ve come to a vid for help in rebirth. Thanks again.. I came close to your idea by just casting sleep but it wasn’t fast enough. Magnify made it happen!!
Too bad sleep only lasts 10 sec on them
Thanks for the tips and other viewers advices
Worked perfectly. Thank you
I have used a similar strategy, but with Magnify+Time Materias. This allowes me to use Stop for all enemies and Haste for the whole team, and then get a synergy move quite quickly due to the increased ATB. I would also use slow if needed
Interesting, that's the setup I used for Bahamut, although I don't think I have rank 3 yet for Stop. Nice alternative strategy though!
I also did it with Stop and a setup on Cloud and Tifa based almost solely on generating the most damage in the less amount of time so I could beat the countdown of the suicide attack of the two other enemies. The timing was thight but it paid off at my second attempt with this strategy. (Following hours of frustration from my previous attemps)
Sounds like a cap. Enemies escape Stop super fast
Stop doesn’t work well. Doesn’t last as long as sleep. Went terribly
Finally completed it with this strategy after trying 7 other strategies and countless tries, but I didn’t have my magnify leveled up at all so they would wake up really fast
Thank you for your help, it really made me win losing so many times.🎉
I tried this so many times but got it first time w your guide. Thank you!!!
Awesome, congrats on the win!
The mission itself was the main difficult part with those enemies stunning and blowing up so this sleep thing was a real nice tip.
What also helped me in the end that I recognized was using the Limit Siphon so that I can get just enough gauge for a limit break to finish the damage I was off by. Did this on Dynamic Difficulty too.
Tbh it’s easier to solo this as Yuffie. Doppleganger, Haste and Posion and you are good to go. Always have 1 ATB ready for Blindside incase you get hit by their Scream.
I also did this solo with yuffie on my first try. I had enemy skill on and used sonic boom and doppelganger for damage and soothing breeze to heal.
The problem is many are using Dynamic Difficulty, which is nearly impossible... but you're right Bioga and Haste can definitely work.... I had 3 in my party when I defeated this annoying fight 😂
This strat did not go well for me. They don’t stay asleep for very long and mondflayer can take you down pretty fast so I don’t have much time to kill him
Thanks for the binding trick I was using stop at first but they seemed to break out so quick found it easier to enfeeble aerith too so she was still there as a frog to distract them but they couldn’t use self destruct on her
Yeah the enfeebled method seems pretty strong too, I did try it a few times but I found sleeping them was a bit easier for me.
Managed to beat this challenge today on dynamic using this strategy, or rather the binding/magnify part. I had first strike equipped to Red for ATB at the start. But I also had Cloud and Tifa equipped with ATB boast to get charges quicker. Also I had Red holding the Malboro orb which I think helped extend the sleep status effect time. Anyway I thankfully was able to get two synergy uses and use them on the Mindflayer at the right times to beat it before the adds self destructed my characters. Saw that you change the difficulty but that wouldn't have been an option for me as I'm going for the hard trophy and I don't want to risk altering it mid game.
Thanks a lot, this helped me out and got it done! Ty
Congrats on getting it done! It's one of the tougher ones for sure!
Thanks bro. Your tip help a lot 😊🎉
Thank you, this helped SO much!
This guide helped me so much 😁 tried doing it for 2hrs so many different ways and couldn't do it
Glad it helped! Took me a while too!
Great explanation!
I completed it with just Cloud and Tifa. Draw the mindflayer away from the other enemies and then cast magnified sleep. Used abilities until I built up synergy. Then spam Tifa’s unbridled strength and attack with Rise&Fall and Omnistrike until he was defeated. Took a few tries to get it done but man, glad that’s behind me.
This challenge really blasted my mind
Thanks for the awesome guide!
You saved me a huge headache. Thank you so much.
You're welcome!
Finally got this after more tries than I care to acknowledge. I’m sure there are many strategies to get it but Sleep+Magnify and First Strike works well.
So what's the name of the song that plays during this fight? I want to find it but i don't wanna spoil myself on the game and i have no idea where to look
Hey there. Could you try this technique out again? Ever since the update, it seems like the AI now targets sleeping enemies. I tried this fight several times, and almost every time, the AI party members went straight for the adds. After two casts of sleep, it doesn't work on the adds for the rest of the fight. It shows up as "Resisted".
Yep I’m having same problem. Was literally one decent ability away from doing it out of about 20 odd attempts. Ended up destroying one of my controllers.. will try the Toad ring method tomorrow and see if that works. Otherwise I’m gunna chuck it on Easy for this one and try that.
Edit: Nah ended up having a break from the PS5 for a couple months and went back to it as Tifa main, toad ring on other two characters to distract the minions.. then just smashed the squid’s ass with waifu. Took 1 attempt with her, she is potent.
I tried this just now. I had aerith with enfeeblement ring. Whenever I saw that either Cloud or Tifa were about to hit the little enemies, I switched to them right away or gave them a command to attack mind slayer. I took me like 3 tries to figure that out.
Pro tip: change the difficulty to easy for this.
I was using Dynamic difficulty and it just meant I couldn't keep the adds stunlocked and couldn't do enough damage to the mindflayer before they started resisting my sleep spell.
Turn it back up afterwards.
It's one of those things that genuinely does make a difference, but then you have to see "easy" on the score card afterwards and forever after 🫣
I would but my pride...
@TheGameFatherUK I get that, I was hesitant to drop the difficulty myself. But then when I wasted a few hours not experiencing the game I decided the unlock was better and I can always come back on my hard play through when I'm level 75 👍😂🤘 wish me luck
Thank you so much for maginfy and sleep idea. Became a piece of cake
Thank you so much for this 🙏🏼
I tried using stop but it didn't last long enough, and I always forget about the binding material 😅
Glad it helped! Binding and Warding, brothers in arms in the world of forgotten materia 😅
Ty bro, that did the trick. Got it in one. But like a few ppl have said in here already, this challenge really does reveal a flaw with the lock on system.
Yeah for sure, I really like the idea that someone else suggested having a materia for party focus lock!
Finally did it guys. Some lucky needed here too. Those 2 minions keep interfering and the companions almost never focus on Mindflyer only.
I decided to use only Cloud and Tifa with this strategy
You're the best Mate!! Thx a lot for all your tips
Happy to help!
Very helpful, the sleep worked just enough to where I could have my Tifa get her atb and unbridled up while my cloud was casting sleep and getting focus attacks in and my tiff ie was just there for dps
Congrats! It's definitely an outlier in the combat simulator, way more challenging than the non-summon challenges!
Thank you for the video
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this it really helped
Good stuff dude. 🤘
The you sir! This mission was the most annoying shit I've delt with all game, So glad you made this video!
Glad it was helpful!
U have good video. I used it, but i only used cloud and tifa. Dont have to worry about third member attacking experiments. Don't use magnify for sleep.
Does anyone know the OST that plays during this battle?
This setup worked! It took me like five tries to figure out that I needed to keep alternating control when I saw tifa barreling towards the sleeping tentacles. But man this was a struggle. Felt like being over leveled was more of a hindrance.
Good call!
Nice!
Kwel Video thanks Ive liked and subscribed, Do you have a video on how to complete Gongaga Region Intel: Level 2?
This was a tricky fight, but this guide helped immensely.
Glad it was helpful!
My god, the constant changing of the target by accident had me almost tearing my hair out. I got there in the end though. Thanks for the tips.
It's one of those challenges where you say "I'm never doing that again now it's done" 😅
@@TheGameFatherUK for sure!
I have same strategy on dynamic, cloud lvl 40. But it take longer time to stagger him...
The two smaller enemies keep killing themselves they literally keep attaching to my other characters and self-destructing.
Thanks! U save my life ❤
Thank you so much for the super thanks! I hope you're having a blast on Rebirth and are having a great day!
thank you so much 🙏🙏
Finally! Ok sleep strategy was not working for me. In the end I put the enfeeblment ring on 3rd party member and kept switching between Tifa and Cloud to build up Synergy. Actually managed to get 2 synergy attacks off on the mindflayer in the end and was then easily able to finish up the mods. Glad that’s over!!
Great tip, managed to pull it off after a few tries, 3 people in team, 3rd was Yuffie.
Got it about 20 mins or so.
Was beyond frustrating before I gave this a try.
Congrats on getting it done! Glad the video was helpful!
Thank you for the tip, though I decided to just use cloud and tifa to control them better, tifa had magnify time and atb boost and cloud had atb boost and magnify sleep, beat on 2nd attempt
Grats! That's a decent alternative setup :)
Good call on using the First Strike materia to be able to use Sleep instantly. I actually only had it at Level 1, but a workaround is pairing it with the Level Up materia and also equipping the ATB Boost materia that lets you double your ATB with L1 + R1. So basically the same thing except you hit L1 and R1 as soon as the fight starts and then you can use Sleep. Also, the Malboro Orb accessory keeps enemies asleep for 25% longer, which can be helpful.
On the plus side, the Mind Blast enemy skill is actually pretty goddamn cool lol. I think it's worth the hassle.
Yeah I liked it when I got it, but then I honestly didn't find myself using it all that much. I kinda like how much variety there is in the game. There are so many approaches to playing it and defeating bosses.
I started with magnify sleep + marlboro orb on barret. Once the sleep is applied use stop on the boss for easy atb charge. Once stop is over use slow. Just keep the sleep up and it should be good.
It doesn't seem to be working. They still kill the adds no matter what i do
This mission is BS
Gunna try this strategy out today when I get home. Was attempting this challenge for like an hour last night and was getting so annoyed dude!
I must admit, when I first attempted it, I didn't even realise you had to not kill the Mindflayer first so I was like "oh that was easy... wait a min... FAILED?!?!" 😫
Same. Very frustrating
I broke a controller over this fight...*sigh*
THANK YOU
I hate this fight but your strategy worked
No, my sleep plus magnify did not incapacitate both the small monsters for entire fight even when i didn't hit them, they wake up after a while and then becomes immune after few sleeps
I had to cast it twice in the video, as long as you don't chain cast it you should be fine. If you want them to sleep/stop for longer, use Cait Sith with his Iron weapon and select the 2 extensions to debuffs on the weapon. You can also equip him with the Marlboro Orb accessory which further increases the time.
big help thanks pal
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the help. Actually just ended up only using cloud and Tifa because aerith kept breaking sleep lmao
I was on the right track but didn't think bout switching weapons and have atb charge rate. i had everything else right. Thx for tip.
Glad it was helpful! Congrats on completing it!
Even with the magnify-binding strategy it took me a long time to beat this.. I was about lose my sanity when sheer dumb luck happened and I was able to use synergy ability and then limit break one after the other which did it.
Dude THANK YOU! I tried everything and this made it so easy!! Thank you 🙏
You're welcome! Glad it was helpful!
thank you so much oh my god I hate this quest I had to do this for an hour straight I genuinely despise the targeting in this game its so infuriating
i finally did it thanks to this but something i gotta stress- try to push the mindflair to the walls and keep the vahgs on the other side- have all three use binding so you always have a dedicated atb to use for cutting atleast one of em off- i used the molboro jewel to extend the time and magnify on aerith as well to even get some sleepy time on mindflair itself. took one stagger phase plus one finall push with a synergy attack. i dont get why this fights designed this way its the only challenge like it and its frustrating due to how fast someone like cloud or tifa can ruin it. people even ran 2 players as frogs to maybe isolate it but iwas finding that way harder to manage
Instead of relying on sleep I used haste and slow magnified. Barrett's overcharge and stagger attack were useful too.
Good vid....took me a couple of tries....Had to put it on easy! Two man team works better. Cloud and Tifa work well. What a pain in the ass.
Yeah I've read a few people say 2 worked well. I wasn't sure if it still counted as a win if both characters got suicide bombed at the end 🤷
I just used Cloud and Tifa and I was able to get it after quite a few tries. It's tough getting the other 2 enemies asleep away from the mindflayer but if you can do that, I used the first synergy skill, beat the crap out of him until he was staggered then used the second skill (cyclone) and he was dead.
@@Tralala001 Any tips for the Distant Tremors battle. Have you tried that one yet? I've died multiple times!
Thanks fot the tips, ofc i always forgot to use magnify and status magic 😂
It's a huge huge game with so much choice, I nearly always forget to do something. I see those solo no damage summon boss kills and I'm like 😩😫😵 I wish I was that good!
Duuuude, thanks a lot for this! This battle was a real pain... I struggled to kill this mf for 30-40 attempt until i use your strategy! That's crazy...
Glad it helped and glad you managed to get it done! It's definitely an outlier compared to the rest of the combat sim (excluding some of the brutal and legendary fights ofc)
I ended up managing my sleep casting and full on charged his ass with team Avalanche(Cloud, Tifa,Barret) Synergy support materia helped me out cause everytime I used an ability everyone got a point so Cloud sleeps everyone with magnify while Tifa and Barret were on standby with the synergy abilities to stagger this cthulu reference. Took me 30 times...
Team Avalanche for the win! Congrats on beating it!
@@TheGameFatherUK The frickin Kamikaze ads always found some way to either get targeted and killed or just so happen to saunter into the synergy combo and die like literally a fraction of a second before the mindflayer staggers. I kept trying solely because I wanted that skill but really forgot I could change the difficulty to make it easier. All 30 of those runs I didn't have to do...
THANK YOU
Did you do this on easy mode or something? I try to sleep them and they wake up seconds later then resist further sleep attempts. Strategy does not work for me.
Just on normal, I haven't bothered with dynamic. You can't chain the sleep quickly if one breaks, but when they stay CC'd for the full duration they can be slept again soon after. There is a little RNG because of the party auto attack but I did it a bunch of times when testing.
Even when the mobs were asleep and I’m targeting on the boss with Tifa having just staggered it with a synergy with Cloud, Cloud decided to run away from the boss and attack and kill a sleeping mob - why?!
because the combat system is not designed for specific stuff like that?
I believe it's all up to RNG.
I have done self destruction as cloud so i was able to switch fast between two characters preventing them from attacking this small enemies and I've done it :)
You can also slow and stop the mindflayer for an easier fight. All 3 mobs wont be moving if sleep and and stop is used. Super useful.
I finally managed to do this with only Cloud and Tifa. And I discovered that even if both characters get KO’d by self immolation, it’ll still count as long as the mind flayer is already defeated! I thought it was going to tell me I failed but then the victory fanfare started. Hoping this was intentional by the developers and doesn’t get changed in an update
Sleep the entire fight? The entire fight..?? THE ENTIRE FIGHT?!?! It barely lasts 12 seconds and after the 2nd recast they become immune to sleep the rest of the fight.
to anyone having problems just run only cloud and tifa focusing just on them and not a 3rd helps and switch to her if they get up and have cloud cast sleep again no one is attacking anything so no chance of waking things up
This does also work, thanks for commenting for others :)
Thank you thank you
Glad it was helpful! This one drove me crazy for a while!
I used magnify + silence on Tifa , slow on Cloud, and stop on Tifa. I put them to sleep and then spammed power cleave and slow on the mindflayer. Tifa and Cloud quickly built up synergy after spamming, and then used their synergy to pressure and stagger. Then I used stop on it and spammed it with Rise and Fall and Braver. Made me realize how bad sleep is since any hit wakes them up and it barely lasts 15 seconds
That's a solid alternative 👍
"They can only kill 2 of your 3 party." Sounds like what typically happens when people party up with me 😂
Haha, glad it's not just me!
This is the video that helped me lol finally
Alt strategy- cast haste and bravery on cloud. Use aerith to cast sleep. Spam synergy abilities magic blade and power cleave alternating so neither has a chance to attack the sleeping enemies. Spam chakra or unbridled strength/focused thrust to get 3 charges then use relentless rush. Enjoy beating down on the staggered mindflayer
How do i tell my allies to focus attack the mind guy?
They won't attack a slept mob directly once it's asleep (unless they were already in the process attacking it in which case they seem to want to finish their move first). There's just a bit of luck to be had at the start with the auto attacks from your teammates.
Does setting it to Easy mode make a difference?
The mobs will do less damage and have less health on easy.
I just tried this.... And it seems I blocked myself in the possibility to ever get this mission done.... Put them to sleep at the start. As soon as they woke up put them back to sleep. That worked two times, after that they became immune and I couldn't even reduce the mindflayer to half his health before one of the other suicide bombed one of my teammates.
As for why I blocked myself.... I waited till now where I'm level 70 since I did not remembered that those missions scale with level....
Same for me. I think maybe the game got an update or something. I can only put them to sleep twice. After that they gain resistance. I just restart if I can't kill the Mind Flayer after the 2nd Sleep cast.
@@TyTimeIsAwesome I got it now done, but I had to set the game to easy 🙈
@@stuffandthings617 I don't blame ya. I did finally beat it on Dynamic, but it took nearly 4 hours.
