FF7 Rebirth: 7 Best Weapons For Barret
The gun arm of Barret returns in to aid the planet and your party, but this iconic character has several different weapons you can find that give him his best abilities. Discovered in purple chests across large Chapter regions, you can find tools to help Barret grow stronger. However, some weapons provide better skills to learn than others along your journey.
Barret specializes in long-range combat by firing a stream of bullets from his gun arm to hit enemies that are high in the air or far away from your party. This makes Barret an incredible addition to your team at times, especially when you have the best weapons for Cloud or Tifa. Experiment with certain party combinations to find out which characters have the best synergy with the Avalanche leader.

The Vulcan Cannon gives a surprising melee ability to Barret called Charging Uppercut, which lets him knock an enemy into the air. This is similar to skills given by Tifa's best weapons in that put your foes into better positions for combination attacks. This strike from Barret could be a great way to set up enemies in a good position for another party member with an affinity for close-range combat.
This gun also gives Barret an increased charge for his secondary combat skill — Overcharge. Normally, this attack has to build up from the basic shots you fire at various opponents, but spending the ATB on Charging Uppercut will let you prepare this move faster. The barrage of explosive bullets that come from Overcharge in can be one of Barret's best sources of damage, so you'll want to build it up as quickly as possible.
