Final Fantasy 7 Remake Hard Mode: 10 ESSENTIAL Secrets, Tips & Tricks

4. Use Elemental Materia On Armour For Immunities & Healing

Because of how effective Elemental Materia can be when attacking, it's super easy to forget that when attached to armour, it nullifies the connected element.

Levelled up it'll even absorb said element's damage as HP, providing a way for one remaining character to go toe-to-toe with a boss, if everyone else has fallen.

There are many specific uses for this, but I personally relied on it when up against Bahamut and Ifrit in the VR challenge. Targeting the latter and letting him attack-heal in a pinch genuinely saved me on a winning run.
