He explains that obtaining this powerful skill early can significantly aid players. Simon directs viewers to an area near the Chocobo Ranch and southeast of Calm, emphasizing that players can pursue this task even without completing the Calm section. He details the recommended preparatory steps, such as having Cloud as the party member to learn the skill due to his high spirit stat, boosted further by equipping the Talisman obtained from a previous boss fight.

In this part of the video, the focus is on preparing for a challenging battle. Key actions include equipping party members with tranquilizers to reduce damage taken and placing them in the back row to minimize physical attack damage. Important preparations also involve using deadly waste or poison materia to inflict poison on the enemy, and using gravity balls to reduce its health. The advice is to save the game before the fight, ensure the character setup is correct, and understand the enemy’s attack pattern, particularly noting that an important skill (beta) is only cast as a counterattack at lower health levels. It’s crucial that the main character, Cloud, is not ejected from battle to learn this skill.

In this part of the video, the focus is on a battle where the main character, Cloud, utilizes strategies to defeat an enemy called Midgar Zolom while preventing ejection from the fight. Key actions include Cloud healing and defending instead of physically attacking to avoid counter-attacks and using a Limit Break and the Beta enemy skill for significant damage. The enemy is eventually defeated, and the Beta skill, a powerful AoE (Area of Effect) attack, is acquired. This skill can deal over a thousand points of damage but requires 35 mana to cast. The video concludes with encouragement to use the Beta skill effectively in future battles.
