Maybe I will wreak at his pace …
Rufus was one of three of the worst enemies I ’ve had to dispense with in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Hard Mode , in all probability because he force you to act at your own pace . If this pa ’s boy is giving your Hard Mode a grueling run , here ’s how I “ cheesed ” the conflict .
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Hard Mode Rufus guide
To tucker out Rufus in FF7 Rebirth Hard Mode , it ’s all about understanding what he can do , when you may act , and what “ sever the link to coerce ” the dog means . allow me break my strategies down for you .
Attack after Rufus uses Guns Akimbo
Having worry understanding the timing of Rufus ’ reloads ? Same . But that ’s why watching out for a move called Guns Akimbo is useful . After using Guns Akimbo(which you could put off by simply running),Rufus always Reloads , allowing you to pressure him . If you did n’t know , the only direction Rufus can be force is if he ’s hit while he habituate Reload .
Attack, then Triple Slash when pressured
Rufus recuperate from Pressure really cursorily unless he ’s hit with ATB commands ( which “ readjust ” the unseeable timer as to when his Pressure position conk down ) . To deal the most amount of harm during his Pressured land , take up by havingCloudland a combo basic attack and follow up with Triple Slash .
The basic onslaught will load your ATB bar and the Triple Slash will lengthen his Pressured state . Triple Slash is a move Cloud recover quickly from , allowing you to land another canonical jazz group . And another Triple Slash .
You get what I mean .
Once Rufus starts getting crocked off , he will apply a move calledDesperation . This lead us to the next step .

Dodge Desperation and pressure him again
despair is a move Rufus uses when he takes too much terms . After whichhe’ll Reload mechanically . This signify that as long as you skirt Desperation successfully , you’re able to punish him again with basic attacks and Triple Slashes .
Desperation is afront laser . When you see the move name on top of Rufus ’ head , dodge to the side forthwith . establish a introductory attack and he ’ll be pressured .
Use your summon and Limit Break after he calls Darkstar
To make your life infinitely easier in the next rung , only expend your summon after Rufus calls Darkstar . Make certain you have one ATB full charged for the next round though .
in conclusion , if you have a Limit Break save for a pressured Rufus or Darkstar in the next stage .
Wait for a combo Darkstar and Rufus move before attacking
Darkstar gets pressure when its “ connexion gets lop ” from Rufus . you’re able to do this by pressuring Rufus . He ’ll seldom use Guns Akimbo in this phase , but when he does , you know what to do .
The most likely Reload move you should keep an eye out for is Rufus and Darkstar ’s combo plan of attack .
Wait for Rufus to useHeeland linkwith his dog ( wait for theblue linebetween them ) and run away until Rufus uses anelemental “ shot ” moveand Darkstar , the spell . This is their joint attack(s ) . And yes , Rufus will always use Reload after .

So , after hedge the spell dead reckoning , use Triple Slash on Rufus ( do n’t even hold off for " Reload " to come along ) . This will blackjack Rufusandsever his data link with DarkStar , which Pressures the dog .
If you listened and keep your Limit Break , a pressured Darkstar is one of the best victims for it . It should deplete 70 - 80 % of its HP . Or if you ’re feeling really surefooted , you may use it on a pressured Rufus too .
Once you ’ve used the Limit Break on Rufus , follow it up with the Attack + Triple Slash hack writer I taught on Rufus ( again ) until DarkStar recovers from its own Pressured state . In which case , just wait for them to link up up and let loose another joint barb - spell tone-beginning .
