BEST GEAR Build Guide ~ Final Fantasy 7 Ever Crisis 

This is so nice, simple, and very informative. Please do more of these! Thank you so much!

Binge watching Smelly's tip vids while waiting for the game to get back up

DUDE!!!!!!!!!! I haven’t seen a video from u in years. Almost thought u gave up on making videos after KKUX died off. Good to see u man seriously. Hope u and ur family are all doing amazing!

its been a while and this guide still help me to remember how to build this game, lucky u still up for this game...

Excellent video, I did not plan on upgrading my 4* until I got the 5* but now my plans will change quite a bit. Thank you for explaining how even lower level gear can benefit the character, when the abilities match what you are building for.

Just wanted to say this was really easy to understand and hugely helpful. Thank you very much and look forward to watching more of your content on Ever Crisis! 👍

This is like the most useful video ever! Your videos about KHUX were invaluable, I cannot believe how long it took me to realise that you were now making videos about FF7EC!!! Thank you so much!

Learned so many things in just this video that I didn't know, even paying attention to the tutorials. Thanks, Octo!

Fantastic video, takes me back to watching your guides for KHUX! But I gotta say that I'm really looking forward to the materia guide cos that's where I'm stumped the most!

Dude, your video is sooo Helpful!!

I didn't realize you had to match the materia to the specific ability for it to work for you. So thank you for the explanation

You are the only guy who mentioned the sigil boost and materia slots and why it matters! I had no idea! Thanks for the super easy to follow guide man.

Thank u so much for this info! Very straight to point and explained well, I've seen other videos but they explain it all over the place, don't get into detail much, LOL, this guide definitely helps!

been a min since KH union cross glad video came up

Man, I've been missing out on important optimization. Thank you! This and your other videos have been extremely helpful!

This is what i'm looking for. The clear explanation. Thanks bro~~

I really appreciate these in-depth breakdowns on the mechanics of the game. Cheers!

This is really useful! I noticed yesterday when watching stream that the best equip wasn’t always perfect and was struggling to know what to equip, but now I know! (For when the game comes back online) Thanks for the guide Octo looking forward to more

Nice to be watching here again.

well dont focus on that only, the sub weapons gives you stats boost too, so for me its more worth, a 5 star 60 lvl on sub than a couple on points on phy attack, thats because the boost in my stats the weapon gives me 5 star matt weapons on aerith do wonders, cause the boost of magic and heal on the stats

don't know if anyone else mentioned this, but it might be good for you to use the green screen when filming these so we can see the things the window is blocking

The man.. the myth.. the legend has returned.

Thx for the great video,I like how you took the time to go in depth and breakdown every stat,thx sir and I appreciate it.

Omg thank you for this guide. I been doing recommended and been dying at low lvls despite how high my atk power was. I was lacking sigils 😅 to break the boss. This was a huge eye opener

This is the best video I have seen on this topic, thx very much!

Used to watch you for union cross helped me then and now this helped me now thanks :D

Liked and subscribed. Keep up the good work, cant tell how hard was to find someone on RU-vid than knew what the fk he was talking about on this game!

I already new all of this but I'm definitely showing my friends this so I don't have to explain 😄 Very good video!

best video i ve seen so far for this game. thx

Excelent video, I need it this to boost my characters. Thanks.

What a great video. This game is nice but all the systems and their synergies can get confusing. You made everything very clear, thank you.

Thank you for all the Ever Crisis content

Thank you. This was very helpful

its good to see you back making these videos

Thanks for the great guide! It was extremely helpful!

What a great day for content!!!

Fantastic guide. My only input is that auto equip is only good early game. What I noticed is that it will try to make everyone's stats even across the board instead of their specialties to some degree. Most Square-Enix gachas like Opera Omnia will hold your hand for a while but incorporate mechanics for you to invest just a little bit more later on into end game. So in this game it's imperative that at least by mid game you start to learn how to fight and what to bring. Setup may take a bit longer but as SmellyOctopus said you'll beat content that numerically isn't recommended. It's almost like preparing for war similar to Fire Emblem. But decide now if your willing to put that kind of time into your account because this isn't really an auto farm game. SE games never really are.

Oh wow so I was wrong on the sub main weapon XD haha thank you for the clarification I didn't even notice the broken blade for it! Thanks for the guide, cant wait for the materia guide and also that bluestacks settings guide could be a mini one for those having lag issues. Also Nice 1234 at the end for PATK

god i miss your guide video. they always help

Love your content thanks for the tips and guides. Stay awesome!

Amazing content, thank you!

great content, thanks mate!

0.0 i gotta try this. I been winging it hahaha thanks!!

Here is me clicking best equipment every time

Easy to follow, thanks.

The best gear build is.... Pick your own favorite weapons :) they are all great I have learned in an accidental reroll that every weapon in the game serves a different purpose if it has it's own unique abilities. Also Cloud is a very varied character and with certain weapons can fill each role.

Thank you so much for this video!

Excellent guide! very insightful =D

Well this really helped me out.

This is soooo useful shit man I just got like a 1/4th stronger lol thx bro

I really, really wish that I would have gone for the stamps for Murasame rather than the beach festival gear.

Great explanation!

Thank you!

Amazing info kind sir :)

Thanks for this

Good stuff bro!

I've been trying to spread the word a bit, but I think a lot of people have been sleeping on how needed red 13 is. I'm currently stuck on the battle tower level 30, and I think it is mainly due to having no way to deal with enemies giving themselves physical boost. The boss on that floor 30 gets like 5 boost ups of physical attack and is hitting for 2500-3000 single hits and his aoe hit is hitting for over 3k. I think if you want to be able to beat him within any reasonable timeframe and not just overlevel it, you will need red 13's physical attack down limit break at that stage. I've been attempting to level mine but i'm out of stamina haha.

Banger video!

Wait WHAT Octo is back?

Looking forward to the materia guide

i put the same machine gun level 30 and the zack weapon 50 still give more power with the machine my power is 30191 , with zack weapon my power is 30943 and my PA also drop with zaxk weapon was 1438 with the machine drop to 1368

I always wonder what the blue orb next to the materia slot were. Thanks Octo!

Thanks for the info

Well, I learned a thing. You got a sub

I'm going to play this just because you are lol

How to beat content 10k higher? Whale on the banner and get the s tier weapon overloaded twice.

57% has increased your attack with your buster sword in secondary slot. We can say that it does not give 50% but rather it gives 57%¿??¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?¿ ... Is my doubt. thx a lot for videos

Brooo FF7 EV in an Octo video?? Less gooo

it is 60% as it gave you 108 atk out of 189 and 50% of 189 is 94.5 so get your facts right

Ahhhh idk idk… I’m sticking with the Buster Sword for now because it’s the Buster Sword hehehehehe =pp

i started to do spells and it helps with damage aerith is now chairaerith for ever XD

Thats mean dont turn on auto convert if you want the five verison of the weapon i found that out day one

Honestly, I just use recommended team build. Auto hasn't failed me yet

Helpful

Hello im currently at nibelheim and having trouble with the green dragon how did you beat him at below 26k power level?

Buster Sword has 189 atk. 760 atk - 652 atk = 108 atk 108/189 = 57% gain, not 50%

How gain more r abilities points for dresses? They can't be upgraded so how?

Wait so how do i know whos physical or magic attackers? Or who builds focus on def or healing mainly I figured it, thanks a million

What about health magic does every unit needs one

I hope we can change the music menu... It's good but i'm listening for it for 2 days xD

Hi what do you 4 star Willemstad transferered to 5 star? Because i was converting the 4 star to get the materials is it wrong?

best for you maybe. just remember people get various different weps to you

The grind on this game is crazy.

How do you get more armor for everyone??

the Clouds Buster sword with red star, how do I get it? Use a stamina boost and complete any quest once how am I to understand that? How do I do that? Thank you everyone

Keep Elliot safe.

I didn’t even know you could take the Buster Sword from 3 to 5*+, is that something that happens after you do more story or was it from getting a 5* version in the gacha?

Do you think it is worth upgrade a 4star weapon to 5stars? I don't have Aerith healing weapon at 5stars :(

Indeed

I’m confused on the weapons. Should I be upgrading purple to gold or just wait for the gold version to drop?

dumb question where do i get the materias with Blow (Physical when I synthezise its always magical

How do you have Clouds sword to 7 star? do you have a video for that?

For materia substat it's better the %substat or flat?

How can I download this game?

Only 5 Pull?? .. but so many red weapons ... How?

I'm hitting a wall where I dunno what to do to increase power lol

Ah, good to see you pop back up in my feed, Octy! If I get into Ever Crisis sometime, it'll be a comfort to know I can turn to you for advice, like I did with Union Cross. You helped this F2P player become a trusted guild leader and a top 1500 PVP/PVE player, back then. These guys'll be lucky to have you around, for sure.

So you’re telling me BEST EQUIP ain’t really Best equip?

How do you unlock braver for the buster sword I have the materials but it won’t lvl it up to 40 to unlock braver...it’s saying not enough materials but what else do I need then caus rig won’t show me what I need. The ones it did show that I need I got like the memory of cloud an the buster sword part thing but I can’t lvl it up to 40

no pvp ? play with com only ?
