FF7 Remake Part 3 Needs To Improve One FF7 Rebirth Materia

Materia are a huge part of combat in , but not every option is equally useful. While the average party is likely to rely heavily on essentials like Healing, it's easy to make it through the game without touching a number of the available Materia. That imbalance isn't new to, as most games tend to throw a lot of choices at the wall and see what sticks, but there's one Materia in particular that's just hard to justify using in

As a direct follow-up to , takes the former's list of Materia options and significantly expands it. Although every category gets fleshed out, Command Materia receives a particular boost, more than doubling in size from a roster of six options in to 13 in. The new Command options can be some of the easiest to ignore in the average campaign, and although it's still possible for a tactical player to make good use of most of them, Jump ends up feeling like the odd one out.

With so many materia to choose from, building your party can be tricky! Here are some of the best materia for each character

Although Jump wasn't present in, it's far from a new addition to the series. First appearing as a command ability for Dragoons in, Jump typically offers a period of midair invulnerability before the user descends for a powerful strike. Although this can take the user out of combat efficacy for a few moments or turns, in an extended fight, the payoff can often be worth the time invested.

In, however, Jump just isn't all that practical. At a cost of 2 ATB, the move isn't fast or effective enough to justify its usage. Some powerful boss attacks are still capable of hitting a character mid-Jump, effectively removing the biggest incentive to deploy it. Although making Jump work in action-based combat might be tricky, already showed off a more reliable useful version of the technique, and 's feels like a downgrade.

Green magic Materia can cast a variety of spells in FF7 Rebirth, with the best ones buffing allies, debuffing enemies, or dealing elemental damage.
