This was nearly as bad as the previous segment.

Frankly, it was worse.

Whereas the previous segment had 6 battles, much more text to skip and even a minigame, this one only has 5 battles, which are even all at the beginning of the segment, and is basically done after the last battle.

Still, there are even more things that must be accomplished throughout these 5 battles.

Firstly, this is the last serious chance, albeit not the last chance, to get Limit Breaks, and I need to have two for Diamond Weapon.
As I reset Tifa's Limit bar in the last segment and since she is in critical health almost permanently, she probably won't be able to get a Limit Break.
Thus, Cloud must be attacked often enough for his Limit Break gauge to fill up. Without dying by the way...

Secondly, I need to steal the Ziedrich (300 points if you can explain why and how I will make use of it). In as little attempts as possible. In one attempt.
This is even more ridiculous(ly painfully unlikely) than stealing Ultima Weapon's Curse Ring in one attempt.

Finally, in order to save as much time as possible, the enemies must get as few turns as possible. In particular, one can and should finish the first two battles without being attacked at all.

In case you forgot, Tifa's Deathblow is (still) likely to miss, and a Deathblow miss is an immediate reset on my list, as is a character's death, an enemy's choosing an attack with a fairly long animation (like Grenade) or just a generic non-trivial screw-up on my side.

I lose a few seconds at the end of the segment because I could not remember where to locate Cosmo Canyon on the world map. Great, isn't it?
