Always a pleasure lending a hand where ever I can. 🤝
The only problem with cait sith in rebirth is that’s there’s not enough of him
I have a feeling in part 3 Yuffie and Cait are going to have some kind of multiplying Moogles synergy move
Yeah, he will be in my party in the next game
Spoiler
Yeah losing him at the end of rebirth for a challenging part was a big bummer but true to OG story so I suppose
There is also the ability for Cait to cast spells and build atb whilst also being able to dodge or parry at the same time. He's like no one else in the party and breaks the fundamental rules of basic combat. LOVE IT
I think It is pretty cool that everyone can brake the rules in their own way.
Claud: prime mode make his charged attack count as a weapon ability, so it can cause pressure on enemies that nead to be hit with powerfull abilities in the right timing while not decreasing his atb gage, in fact it increases it a lot.
Tifa: can alternate betwen phisical and magic damege at 1 atb cos and is the only character who can block-cancel every attack on her arsenal, even her atb attacks.
Barret can cause stagger damege whenever he wants while building atb with overcharge, wich he can charge cancel after all his atb-skills.
Yuffie: have 2 buff skills wich can be simultaniously active, the elemental ninjutsu and the shadow clone, one wich makes all of her attacks happen twice, and she can instantly apreach any opponent on the battlefield, not only that, she has one of the highest atb buildup in the game and her banishment is one of the best high damege skills when you use all of these atb skills.
Red XIII: he can lifedrain enemies, not only that, he can basicaly magnify haste and heal without the materia, and all he neads to do to use these skills... is blocking, wich if you give him a steadfast block materia and an efficient block materia, completely negates the cons.
Aerith: double magic, laser beams, aoe atb buffs, her wards ar the best party buffing skills in the game, and they allow her to teleport to safety with the press of a button, no one else can shoot 2 level 3 magic without her being in the party.
And cait sith have the stuff the video and you mentionned.
@@uchihajunior5648 This 1000% :)
@@devon9374 wanna do something funny? Make a party of tifa, aerith and cait sith, give aerith the genji glove, the time materia linked with magnify, and the skill versatility materia, give tifa, the the atb assist materia, and the stagger atb materia, and give both tifa and cait sith the speed demon medalion (the one that is a mini rouche), cast magnify haste on the party, reach chi level 2 with tifa (do it with 2 atb at once to get the other 2 more atb), this is when aerith cast magnified haste, have cait sith summon moogle, then get aerith her arcane ward, built atb with each of then, once you stagger the enemy, and cast stop on a staggered opponent on a combat simulator boss that isn't imune to stop, then use aerith's light beam (i play in portuguese so the names may be wrong in english), the stop will trigger the skill versatility materia so she will not be empty on atb after using light beam, use caits's moogle strike twice, then tifa's true strike twice (this will trigger atb assist materia), rise and fall and omnistrike, then 2 true strikes again, this will give cait sith enough to do moogle strike twice again, and aerith will have 2 atb bars to cast a spell, see how much damege you can do with this spell, you choose whatever spell you like, see the big number you'll get.
@@uchihajunior5648 Voce Brasilerio? Ta Ligado, Im going to try that!
@@devon9374 yep, i am.
Sim, eu sou
There it is. You're on a roll with these chill FF videos, loving the vibe. Another fun watch added to the collection!
Thanks for making the thumbnail 😎
Excellent breakdown. Glad to find more Cait Sith enjoyers out in the field.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the feedback! Also, nice glowing eyes in the pfp 😎
Thank you for putting respect on cait sith
The way they made cait play in this game really highlights how the combat in rebirth is truly some of the best hybrid mix of traditional turn/menu based rpgs into frame work of action based rpg combat, sure every character echoes this but cait is just my favorite example even tho he is dickhead that stole from me. (Great vid btw bro loved it lol)
It's so good that the most useless character in the OG turns out to be a great asset to the party if you know how to use it!
never used him in original on multiple playthroughs but in rebirth he is my main party member as hes just so good and fun to play!
3:20 Beastmaster is also in 10-2, 11 and is going to be featured in 14: Dawntrail
Also in Bravely Default 2
I LOVE CAIT SITH he's my favorite
Love the video. Been looking for a good strat on how to use him, and never realized the Beastmaster connection
YESSS!!! MY BOY GOT LOVE AND ATTENTION wiz you're the best i am so happy you got cait sith in your party because holy crap i use him a lot with red 13 and cloud
Edit:HOLY CRAP thanks for the likes and hearting my comment wiz
Lol..@@wolfwinter5033
Edit:HOLY shit i got 16 likes im famous
i love videos like this cuz it just further proves that ppl who don’t like the combat in these games cuz it’s just “mash square to win” have absolutely no idea what they’re talking about
It's some of the funnest damn combat I've ever played. I'm 35 and love FF7 and FF8 only. The remake is different but great
i dont think anyone actually believes this we just think changing something as iconic as ff7 is a disservice. the combat isnt turn based which isnt ff7 the story is different which isnt ff7 ... the game cost several hundred dollars to complete ... not ff7. call it a remake all you want this is just a different game with a ff7 skin.
@brandonprice119 Four years later and you people are still whining over this. Get over it and it is FFVII. Nobody care what you have to say besides the haters of the remake. You guys can all fk off into a corner.
@@brandonprice119that’s a moronic take. Apologize now. Calling it a skin makes it obvious how disrespective to nomura you are….this is a remake, a re-telling.
How would you like to have an art completed, then 20 years later have to remake it?
Listen to his interview he didn’t want to remake it.
I love when idiots say ff16 is a button masher too…how the hell do you mash when there are eikon abilities you never push the same button you are constantly cycling eikon abilities
The strongest sith lord. Cait sith.
I love Cait Sith, like A LOT.
But holy crap, thanks for the tips! Gonna keep 'em in mind!
Also, you just earned yourself a sub!
Loving this vid . Gonna have to check out your others
Much appreciated Rob! I only wanna make more passion projects like my recent stuff
Feels like I found this channel right on time
I replayed OG FF7 before Rebirth and included Cait Sith in my main team as a joke, since no one uses him. Got super attached to the little guy and was DETERMINED to include him in my main Rebirth team but couldn't figure him out. This has given me some great stuff to start experimenting with, thank you!
Edit: Omigosh he's so fun you guys.
Glad you found it helpful! He’s amazing in rebirth
Great videos my man
Thanks Brady 😎
This videos are so fun.. While farming and exploring.. I've learn that every character has a unique move set.
Also you can turn them into anything. I put two luck materia on yuffie and cait sit. The game change
I never used Cait Sith in the original. But I’ve used him quite a bit in Rebirth. Once I figured out using Let’s Ride refunded ATB if the attack associated connects (I swear more than a full bar if multiple enemies are hit) it became a go to strategy. Fortune Teller also hits hard and it’s a good one two combo for weaker enemies to finish the fight quickly. Cait’s other moves come into play more in tougher fights. But I got to get better with him. That section where he’s solo could have gone better for me. Thanks for the video about him. Gives me something to think about.
Happy to hear that. You’ll get better with him over time! Thanks for watching and thanks for the feedback! Glad you got some insight as to how to shmove with him 😎
Cait Sith was a great Aerith replacement in the original. I imagine they will give either him or Vincent more healing focus in part 3
Not really in the original game/PS4 remaster he's still pure CRAP if you can't rig his instant kill to enemies SLOTS.
another thing is that cait sith has i frames on his moogle, when you move to the left or right he does this twirly thing and he cannot be damaged in that whole twirly animation
I wish they’d tell us that. So much of this game’s features has to be figured out by the player
I gave my Cait my Enemy Skill Materia and he uses those skill amazingly
Does the doll discharge also?
No, but because Cait is elevated when he's on the Moogle you have a slightly larger blast radius when they are together.
Yuffie also has a huge amount of Crits, pair her up and use Lady Luck and you can crits for days.
I just unlocked him in my last play session and ngl I’m really excited to try him out
Cool vid. Bunch of tricks i didn't know since i don't use him much. The character i permanently control is Red XIII who's also hilariously busted.
Dude. I know. Red felt like the cheat code. But because he was in my party all of OG FF7, I ditched him. His only weakness is flying monsters as far as I can tell
@@wizcatcheslightning Yeah flyers are his blindspot but the amount of bosses where that's relevant isn't huge. He can hit them during vengance mode though or just slam them down with sidewinders.
On the other hand any fights with waves of adds he just plows through like butter, specially if you give him elemental+their weakness.
Example the coliseaum fights at the end of chapter 12.
He was always my favorite character of the cast so i i naturally just ended up using him all the time and figured how to abuse him lol.
I really appreciate this breakdown of Cait Sith's gameplay! I'm curious to know which abilities you have mapped to his command shortcuts?
Just Let’s Ride! I really like using my menus because it reminds me of the glory days. But your best bets are definitely Dodge N’ Dive, Moogle Kaboom (because they combo well), and then probably Moogle Mine or Moogle Knuckle for the fourth move
I'm still just okay with Cait Sith but dangit he's so fun. I just spam dice rolls to see what I get. I'm working on practicing his actual combat. But the power of gambling just takes over and I wanna see the craziness that comes with it lol.
The fact that they made EVERYONE more fun to play as in rebirth on top of adding even more playstyles (Cait Sith, Red XIII, etc) made this game that much more impressive.
This is what we needed Square. You even took one of the worst playable FF Characters in existence (in my opinion) and made them into one of the best.
FFX-2 has the Trainer job/dress sphere, which is basically the beastmaster. We're also getting the Beastmaster as a "limited job," similar to Blue Mage, in FFXIV: Dawntrail.
I love that Scottish cat
I wished he/it(?) was playable in chapter 13😭💔
Agreed 🥲
Beastmaster is technically in ffx2 as Trainer.
Tifa Aerith Cait Sith is the strongest party in rebirth but it's obviously hard to pull off. They synergize perfectly , increase staggertime without using tifa so she can go hard on the enemy, everyone get limit increase, mp for aerith and Cait, and refocus for all, whike having 3 best DPS in game but are overall squishy, slow and junky. They can all fight flying enemies but Tifa needs to be launched to fly, Aerith is slow and squishy and Cait is overall hard to control in tandem with mog. Math says this is best party but you need skill to play it.
This! I would debate that is also tied with Tifa (with Fury Ring), Aerith, Yuffie, it’s crazy. But yea, that team with Cait is ridiculous, especially if you use Cait with the Red weapon with the +200 Moogle luck buff. He’s definitely the hardest character to master in the game by far and it’s not even close.
Good breakdown with some nice tips I definitely wouldn’t have thought of (even *if* I played the game)!
The opening almost made me feel bad I trashed DQ to you the other day…
Almost
😆
Subbed
FFXI also has beastmaster, one of most fun classes to play
That’s what people were telling me! There’s a whole thread on it in here that was neat to read
Beast master was a staple job in ff11 as well
CAIT SIIIIIIIIITH
10:25 WOW i main Cait Sith (and DQ Hero in smash) and had no idea Moogle Knuckle increased stagger multiplier...
They really need to better differentiate stagger damage vs multiplier vs increasing meter...
I want to say that there’s a hit stop (when animation slows down to give the player a visual cue) once the enemy becomes pressured. So just keep an eye out for that 😗
In the description of the ability both in menu and when selecting the ability to activate, “Increases stagger damage bonus” is the standard line for Moogle Knuckle, True Strike, and Ray of Judgement, while “Significantly increases stagger” is reserved for Focused Thrust/Shot/Strike. It’s only used on those 3 as the de facto starting party to kind ease you into it I guess (most upper level limit breaks also have the same description for increasing stagger, but I suppose it makes sense for those since you’re much less likely to be able to test those to see what they do). Other characters definitely have abilities that are the same “good for building stagger” type but aren’t explicitly listed as such, idk how to feel about that. I think Infinity’s End is the only non synergy ability that says “increased damage on stagger”.
There are other ability modification mechanics that aren’t readily visible as well but are in descriptions- like so so SO many people don’t realize how much better Barret’s multi-ATB abilities are when you use them with max ATB instead of spamming them with just 1 ATB- which is why methods of getting him 3 ATB paired with his Turbulent Spirit makes him godlike. Tifa has Starshower buff the next attack, Yuffie has Art of War to buff itself and other abilities for a limited time, Red has a ton of contextual abilities where effectiveness depends on the Vengence Gauge, party HP, his own HP, and party ATB
The game almost has an information overload issue that makes it easy to miss things with how many systems, characters, abilities, materia, baked in mechanics, synergy combos, party combinations, and affinities are going on
why did bro mention smash lol
@@gymleaderfern there’s a desync/disjointed attack mechanic that Cait Sith has as a passive ability similar to what Ice Climbers can do
Yea I meant more visual and audio cues and less item descriptions. Like you can tell an enemy is pressured from anywhere on screen and Even off screen..
Not really specific to Cait.... But for him and Tifa etc would be nice if something more bombastic occurred when boosting stagger percent.
Tiny nitpick
Beastmaster is in FFXI and is fantastic.
Oh yeah people were telling me about it. There’s a great thread about it somewhere in here. I would encourage you to look for it
Was gonna make a joke about gambling with Cait Sith's limit break and Motorhead's "Ace of Spades," but then I remembered that Motorhead's "Jailbait" sounds like FF7's "Fight On!"
Cait Sith's Legendary Combat Simulation was the 2nd easiest next to Aerith's Sim. Moogle Sentinel and Moogle Decoy makes Reeves 5 round bout very simple.
cait sith is easily th best glow up in gaming history- while im not great with him- i can immediately say hes no longer on the bench- which is the ideal place for a character im expected to play as needs to be at. ff7 (97) was perpetually on the bench i would have whole playthroughs where i dont so much as reequip him. just cause id rather have vincent or barret or red and i bench red after the first disc pretty much- so even with an older character moving to the bench he didnt sneak into my rotation once. XD rebirth though i actually use him in coliseum matches
Right? So good
FFXIV: Dawntrail is bringing back Beastmaster :)
I used Red Yuffie and Cloud for the dual summon and gilgamesh fight
@ thumbnail: 🖼️Anyone else take mild issue with other characters holding the buster sword? Always imagined it as a 200lb piece of steel exclusively for super soldier 🪖
not really, most people in this world are not normal and can do superhuman feats.
I think it’s supposed to be made of a pretty light material and is probably around 80~100 pounds but I think it’s fair to see characters holding it. It’s another story to see them wielding it lol
@@aegis5678 yea, moogle wields it like a fairy wand... But it's a robot I guess.
I never even questioned ff7 power logics. A florist is a powerful mage, some girl that had boxing lessons for some years punch robots. A big black man has infinite bullets and a minigun for a arm. Somehow a shuriken is a boomerang. To me the combat is one element and the story other that don't have to mix.
@@bardockshiny Aerith is also the last of a race of people who have magic powers... Not a florist only. Lol is "big black man" really necessary? There's only 2 gun arm people and they both have infinite ammo.
I just puta First strike on Cait Sith, to be able to summon the moogle right from the start of a fight.
Not a bad move 😗
Auto Unique Ability is also great on him. He calls the Moogle automatically all fight long
@@devon9374 Why not both and adding a Crescent moon charm for good measure?, To keep Cait Sith active while controlling other characters for ATB Assist..
Not sure if Creascent Moon Charm applies to Moogle as well as Cait Sith itself.
Beast Master is in 5, 11, Tactics Advance, A2 (Nu Mou only in those 2), and is coming to 14 sometime during Dawn Trail (officially announced at the Japanese Fan Fest and alluded to at EU Fan Fest.) it’s also in Adventurers for 3DS and All The Bravest.
Functionally Relm is a Beast Master if you use the relic to change her draw action to the capture version, and Cait Sith came with Manipulate materia making him a pseudo beast master. In 11 Beast Master infamously was a solo only job due to misinformation spread by Brady Games un their strategy guide… which looking back why did we need a strategy guide for an MMO?
Wow. I, uhhh, really missed the mark there 😅
Thanks a ton for clarifying all of that! I don’t remember the beastmaster job in Tactics Advance. Where was it in 12?? I should’ve known better about Relm. Maybe I can expand on that in the future. Relm, Strago, and Gau have always kind of fascinated me.
It also technically appeared in X-2 as the trainer, but very different. And 4 Heroes of Light.
@@wizcatcheslightning it might have been renamed beast tamer In Advance. It is not in 12 as the jobs are only in the Zodiac version. And the 12 jobs are largely inspired by other jobs like Shikari (Hunter, or Bounty Hunter. The Shikari in 11 were the Magus Sisters and they were functionally bounty hunters) being inspired by Ninja. Ulhan was like a Dark Knight with a spear since there was no Jump to make it Dragoon in 12.
I typoed 12 in place of 11. That was my mistake that I need to edit. I wrote the response on ipad where I am super typo prone. There were Bangaa Dragoons randomly fighting things in 12 though… I don’t think there were any Beast Masters though.
To add to the original comment, Beastmaster in 11 was one of the most over powered jobs in the entire game. You could charm pretty much any enemy that roamed the open world, including ones that would absolutely destroy you if you were to fight it by yourself and without a party. So, using an even matched or stronger charmed monster against other slightly weaker monsters that you were supposed to be fighting in a party of 6 other people in order to level up and gain experience, except entirely by yourself as a Beastmaster was ridiculously over powered. Every other Job (besides Red Mage) pretty much had to group up with other players in order to level up because of how strong regular overworld monsters are in 11. Experience points were divided in half on per-person basis depending on how many people were in your Party. In a full 6-man group, you'd get 1/6th of the exp from defeating an enemy. Beastmaster received the full 100% because they just didn't need to party with other players the majority of the time, and when they did group up, it was very often with another Beastmaster, lol.
TL;DR - BST was hilariously OP in 11 for decades and it seems to be a running theme that BST is meant to be that way. The form it's going to take when it arrives in FFXIV soon proves it.
@@GossipGeist yeah… it’s sad it had to be developed that way as it was intended for party play. But the developers in 11, especially Hiromichi Tanaka didn’t understand why it was considered a solo job. Tanaka should never have been allowed to touch job balance because he was overly concerned with historical identity within the series over game play balance. The developers thought Beastmasters were antisocial instead of forced to play that way due to stigma brought on by Brady Games. Balancing in 11 was so bad with their nerf anything that doesn’t fit approach. Ninja is the one instance they caved on and didn’t force it to dps and allowed it to be a main tank as players made it to be.
11 was wild times.
Wasn't Beastmaster a job class in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance as well?
It was. Someone commented and elaborated on it further. That was my bad, but if we’re discussing games’ releases chronologically, Cait Sith’s design is directly inspired by FF5’s beastmaster, a maybe one or two nods to certain characters in FF6
Wooow, I didn't even think of beastmaster from 5 pre-dating pokemon, I just completely forgot ff5 came out way before, yet it's so obvious.
And around the same time, Dragon Quest V had monster wrangling but I believe Shin Megami Tensei was the first to do it
@@wizcatcheslightning Just goes to show that pokemon wasn't the first to do anything but the combination of what they used i.e. monster rangling and turn based combat, paired with creature designs was a win that made them one of the biggest franchises on the planet, and there's nothing wrong with that.
I now want to replay ff5 (specifically coz I didnt finish it) and play with beast tamers.
@@michaelberresford4291 they’re pretty cool and under-explored. But new Cait Sith is a return to glory for them. Also, I’ve been told the beastmaster job class in ffxi is busted. There’s a comment thread on it in this video. Pretty neat read.
Game: "Cait Sith's moogle"
Me: HE HAS A NAME 😢😢
Furreal? What is it?
The power of IRISH ACCENTS GIVES ME POWER
Scottish
Hold on *cough*
The power SCOTLAND GIVES ME POWER
Thanos" perfectly broken, like all things should be"
15:15 that "spectacular", u should really consider edit and replace with Cait Sith's loveless dialogue when he say it
Ha! It's too late now :p
sith in name is not random😂😂😂
Firstttt
Hey is that a Heartland Showdown Top 8 qualifier AND the best Pikachu west of the Mississippi in the comments? 👀
While I'll never play rebirth/FF7 R in the original game if you can't Rig the game over slot then he's pure CRAP and isn't worth using and in the FF7 remakes KoTR is NOT usable YET.
Wait for Part 3. Let ‘em cook 😎
I really hated the smash bros segments
What do you hate about them?
They felt completely unnecessary and unrelated to the topic matter, shoehorned in.
@@rowdyrobgaming8726 I was elaborating on a mechanic seen in the character’s battle design with my own insight from a fighting game where I noticed similarities. Using familiarity to describe an idea that might be unfamiliar to some: a disjointed attack
@@wizcatcheslightning I enjoyed those segments! Great video.
I hate cait sithe for his betrayal so he’s on the bench
As a former Cait Sith hater I can’t blame you
He looks cool, but I can't bring myself to play him.
I refused to play him after the temple 25+ years ago, And with the exception of a traumatic Shinra mansion in Rebirth I haven't played him since.
I hear what you say and he looks busted, but I hate the mother flipper.
My other video on him may just change your mind
lol. Cait Sith is the best in rebirth. It's just pure charisma the entire game.
I seriously hate Cait Sith in Rebirth, used him once. Switched back to Aerith
Spend more time with him before you knock him
@@wizcatcheslightning used him more to get through some enemy intel junk, bro I seriously just don’t like him at all I don’t hate him. But I’d rather just use Yuffie & Aerith
@@wizcatcheslightning like he is strong and definitely broken but he dies too easily for me to actually want to use him
@@dexter._.7096 I hear ya. I think he’s more fun than either of them once you get the hang of things. At least you tried
@@wizcatcheslightning I won’t like he was fun!!! Like seriously I was knocking them down one by one after getting the hang of it I might use him more but not try and keep him for most battles
I HATE cait sith he gets to sit in Tifa’s lap during a bumpy car chase we all know it should have been me!!!!!!!
Okay good video ngl but this still can’t convince me to play him he feels too finicky tbh
😆 glad you liked it. Maybe if you’re bored one day, you know, give him a shot. Having First Strike materia on him helps you not feel the brunt of his start up. But if you think about it, Aerith takes arguably longer, if not requiring the same time commitment to get started. Just some food for thought, but no pressure
@@wizcatcheslightning no you’re right Aerith definitely takes more, I have atb boost, skill master and first strike on her PLUS I have to use one of her synergy skill (usually spell blade lol) before she starts dominating the battlefield
I just get a little confused by how the Moogle behaves sometimes is all knowing but you’re definitely spitting fax
in his solo legendary bout Moogle Kaboom into his Dodge and Dive was goated but I think I had too much trouble with the rest of his enemies to really enjoy the gameplay and learn him properly
I still have a long road of hard mode ahead of me so yeah I’ll learn every character eventually
@@muslihinomar1353 I understand your confusion and I think I know what’s causing it. It’s the dodge. You can’t avoid moves unless you split from the Moogle. But this is actually the cool part about him once you get the hang of things. It’s like learning any new skill: it takes a bit of time. I’ve never mapped the quick abilities to my party, because I love getting turn based about my approach. Cait Sith is the only character that I have a quick ability mapped to and that’s Let’s Ride, so I can get back the ATB he lost to summon the Mog by hitting enemies with it. Also, just keep in mind that once he’s out, you can use the triangle button as the reverse of how Aerith uses her warp shift. Meaning: you can warp the Moogle to you to do what you need to do, dip out, and repeat the process
I still hate Cait Sith.
Sorry didn't like him in the original and don't like him now
