How to defeat Emerald and Ruby weapon
WEAPONs are huge beasts that are
destroying everything in their path. It's up to Cloud and his group to
destroy these massive beasts.
The Emerald and Ruby weapon are the
hardest to beat. They have powerful attacks and a ton of HP, so don't
think this is going to be an easy battle.
Emerald Weapon:
You'll find this weapon swimming around
underwater. He is the second hardest weapon, but don't think he's going to be
easy. He can wipe out your entire party in one hit. First you must get rid of the 20 minute timer
by getting the underwater materia. To get it, go to the Underwater Reactor and
walk around in the glass tunnel until you fight the ghost ship. If you're
wondering what it looks like, it is a big wooden ship with a skeleton who is
holding a paddle. Use morph on it to get the guide book. To successfully morph a monster or enemy, you must destroy the enemy when the person in your
group who is equipped with morph attacks. Trade the guide book for an
underwater materia with the man in Kalm. (He is located in the house farthest to
the right on the second floor) Then, get your best magic users and stick them
in your party. Give them strong weapons with 6-8 slots and strong armor (Escort
Guard, Mystile). You also need to equip Final attack and Phoenix Summon
Materia on your strongest character. Then have KotR (Knights of the Round)
prepared with W-Summon. Have all your strongest Summon Materia handy in case
things get a little rough, and they will. A few mime materia's (mime is found in
the westernmost cave. You must get there with a green, black, or gold
chocobo) can work wonders
especially if you use them after KotR. If it's powered up enough, you might
defeat Emerald Weapon in a matter of minutes.
Ruby Weapon:
Now, Ruby Weapon will be a little bit tougher
than Emerald, due to the fact that his attack, Whirl Sand gets rid of two of
your party members. To solve this problem, kill off two members before the
fight. When Ruby sinks his little tentacles into the ground behind you, revive
your allies using Life 2. Before the battle, equip a ribbon to protect you from the many
status changes that the tentacles can do to you. Also equip Mystile to avoid
Ruby Weapon's physical and magic attacks. Hit Ruby with Hades after he has stuck
his tentacles into the ground, which will Stop him, and follow
it with KotR. Just keep miming it with everyone until he dies. If Stop
wears off and Ruby attacks you, just use a Megalixer, cast Hades again or use
stop magic and follow with the KotR and keep it going until he dies. You
can also equip quadra magic(I think
it is located in the southermost cave and you
have to enter it with either a blue black or gold chocobo- I got this info from
Nic Canac, my buddy) and attach it to
Ultima so that you can cast it more than once. When Ruby Weapon dies, I think that you will
recieve the Desert Rose, I'm not sure, but go to the man in Kalm and exchange
it for a Golden Chocobo.
