Tips For Hard Mode (Non-Boss Edition)
Things To Keep In Mind
You'll need to manage MP carefully
Using Chakra and Pray is a good idea
Always break Shinra boxes you see on the road
Use Aerith's Soul Drain a lot
Avoid using offensive spells
How To Recover MP
In Hard Mode, it can be very difficult to restore your MP (basically just Shinra Boxes). This means that using MP on the road for non-boss monsters will leave you in a worse position for later (far more difficult) boss fights. Try not to use magic as much as possible on the road to a boss to save MP!

Use Pray and Chakra
Pray
Pray

The move Pray is taught by the Prayer Command Materia and uses up 2 ATB gauges in order to heal your entire party. Although the ATB cost is steep, this is one way of avoiding MP use while in the field.

TIP Before finishing off an enemy, save up ATB & get a Pray off before the fight ends! Doing this can save you a lot of MP.
Chakra

Chakra allows you to spend one ATB gauge to restore your own health. The health restored here scales depending on your current health percentage. The lower your health, the more healing you'll get out of this.

TIP By using Barret's ability Lifesaver, you can take damage for an ally and then heal up that damage with Chakra, making for an efficient, MP-less healing method!
Always Break Shinra Boxes
Shinra Boxes

One of the very few methods of MP regeneration on Hard Mode is picking up Mako Shards that come from Shinra Boxes. Note that not every box you destroy will have a Mako Shard. However, it's worth destroying every single one you come across, just in case.

TIP If you have full MP, consider sending out a heal on a wounded party member before breaking a box so you don't waste any MP regen you might get. *This is risky as you might not get a Mako Shard, so be careful.
Make Thorough Use Of Soul Drain
Soul Drain

Aerith's ability Soul Drain deals damage to enemies and absorbs some MP from them. By using this repeatedly on trash mobs you can have a good source of MP regeneration throughout a chapter! Consider equipping First Strike Materia on Aerith so you can get two off even in a short fight.

TIP If you use Soul Drain on ghost-like enemies (such as Ghost or Ghoul), it will have the opposite effect and you'll have your MP absorbed, so be careful!
Be Aware Of Bench Locations
Bench

On Hard Mode, benches will only restore your HP. If you're aware of the position of benches, you'll be able to refrain from using MP on healing spells when a bench is coming up!

Tips For Hard Mode (Boss Edition)
Swap between characters often
Have Healing and Revival Materia for multiple characters
Use Magnify + Barrier
Make good use of low-level magic spells
Make full use of Elemental Materia
Keep in mind the number of bosses in a given chapter
Swap Between Characters Often
Character Swapping
Click to Enlarge
Bosses have a tendency to attack the character you're currently controlling. By being aware of this and making active use of character swapping, you can more evenly distribute the damage your party takes. If you see that Cloud is taking a beating, swap to Tifa to get the boss's attention. Don't tunnel vision and play only one character!
