CHAPTER 10: ABZU

After the nightmare of Hell House, this is a nice easy one and is also a more physical battle to boot as magic has little effect on his Stagger bar. Abzu is weak to Fire, so load your three characters with Fire Materia, equip Elemental-Fire on Cloud and make sure one character can summon Ifrit. If you have Star Pendants, equip those to your characters as Abzu likes to use Poison frequently, or if you only have one then put Cleansing on Aerith and use Esuna to remove it when applicable or just use your Antidotes.

This will be a physical battle, which is handy as you have Cloud and Tifa in your team. The tried and tested method works well here; Cloud in Punisher Mode and Tifa building Stagger with Aerith on healing duties and chipping in with normal attacks or Fire spells on the Horn when she can. Knocking out the Horn will induce Pressured status, so this is a good time to hit Abzu’s main body with the Focused abilities. Bring in Ifrit as soon as you can and divert all ATB to him, with Crimson Drive and Radiant Plume doing far more damage than your normal attacks without the MP cost of Firaga.

Abzu will jump into the sewer to douse the flames, giving you a respite to heal or charge the ATB. There are only three attacks to really be wary of. For Pounce, Abzu will cling to the wall and prepare the attack. Dodge this by running away (not rolling) otherwise he’ll have you in Bound status and deal consistent damage until another character breaks him off. Backwater Blast can deal big damage but is far easier to dodge; just run as far away from the sewer grate to the left as possible and the sewage water will miss you. Finally, he uses Backwash Spout which creates poisonous whirlpools around the floor. Just avoid running into these and they’ll soon disappear.

After he hits half health, he’ll cast Enrage on himself and his attacks will do more damage but the strategy remains the same. Keep exploiting his weakness, use your Limit Breaks where possible and he’ll go down in no time.

Hard Difficulty Tips: There’s nothing to add for Hard Mode this time, except equip Elemental-Fire to both Cloud and Aerith (or Tifa) to pack an extra punch. Aerith can also use Firaga on the Horn to really hurt him. Just be mindful that this boss fight is at the beginning of the chapter this time so you’ve got your whole journey through the sewers to preserve your MP for! No more bosses though, so you can run from battles going forward.


CHAPTER 14: ABZU and SHOATS

This fight is almost exactly the same as the previous Abzu encounter, so employ the same strategies as above. The only difference this time is that Abzu will bring in Abzu Shoats with him and use Blackwater Blast / Blackwater Deluge far more frequently. It’s still easy to dodge so be mindful of it and continue with the Fire-based assault. Don’t forget Ifrit! Take out the Shoats ASAP as they can be annoying and make targeting difficult. Triple Slash is the best way of dealing with them.
