Added Effect + Odin = instant death. Saving throw vs. Death Magic at -3.
Added Effect + Hades = HILARITY! Poison, confusion, mini, and sometimes even toad. Fun to do on creatures, then laugh at the spinning midgets. Silly spinning midgets.
Elemental + Alexander gives you a Holy-enchanted weapon. There is almost no use for this. I’m serious. There are almost no enemies in the game weak to Holy. None that I seem to come across, anyway =/ Well, the undead, yeah ๐
Would Added Effect + Life attacking an undead kill it? The confusing life I lead…
Probably. Assuming it hits. I suppose I’d try it except there really isn’t that much undead in FFVII anyway and most of the undead that there are suck.
Of course, nobody’s mentioned the most talked about materia pair: Final Attack/Phoenix. Of course, that’s not very weird.
If Elemental + Kjata worked I would definately use it. As it causes Fire, Ice and Lightning (it looks like it should cause Earth aswell from the summon animation but it doesn’t say it does) then I would definately use that on armour, so I could absorb all three elements. ๐ However, it doesn’t work like that. Also, putting it on elemental attack would be bad, if the enemy you’re fighting absorbed any one of those three elements it would absorb the attack, even if it was weak against another of them.
Other weird combinations… hmm… does Added Cut + Double Cut work? ๐ I’d guess not, but if it did you’d get 8 attacks in a row… ๐
As you can tell, I didn’t really try out many different materia combinations myself. ๐
What exactly does Counter + Mime do?
Here’s my guess: whenever an enemy attacks you, you automatically use whatever attack one of your characters used last. At least, that’s what makes sense to me. I’d have to try it out to be sure.
So say youv’e got Cloud with Counter+Mime, and youv’e got Cid with Bahamut ZERO and quadra magic.
Cid does Bahamut ZERO x4, then Cloud gets hit afterwards then counters with Bahmut ZERO x4 then gets hit again after that, and repeats it all.
VERY complicated, but does a nice decent job of the enemy.
