Last update: 10 August 2022
On this page of the Final Fantasy VII Remake Intermission guide you can find a detailed walkthrough for Find That Materia story mission.
Yuffie and Sonon managed to survive the ambush orchestrated by Scarlet. Time to explore the Advanced Weaponry building and search for Ultimate Materia.
Steal the Ultimate Materia
After entering Level B15 of Advanced Weaponry (Production) you'll be attacked by two Shock Troopers. The enemies are equipped with strong physical attacks that can be blocked, and are vulnerable to Fire (Fire/Fira spells)
Get to the other side of this room and use the computer to restore the power. Now approach the device shown in the screenshot above and pick up Cannonball Materia.
The Scent of Materia
The road to Level B14 of Advanced Weaponry (Maintenance) leads through a pipe shown in the screenshot above. Climb the ladders to the upper floor and then continue through the catwalk to the corridor on the other side.
After entering the next corridor, you'll be attacked by a few 3-C Soldier Operators. These are very powerful and immensely agile enemies who attack with melee weapons aggressively employing a few combinations, but also use magic: Thundara, Blizzara, Sleep. Here, it should be mentioned that their biggest weakness is Fire vulnerability, so use Fire/Fira spells during the battle.
Quick melee combinations can quickly fill up Stagger bar of the enemy.
Further along the way, you'll need to face another challenging and durable opponent - Armored Magitrooper, who is resistant to magic and uses powerful laser attacks. Watch out for this move, as it can take up to 50% of your heroes' health. When the armor has been destroyed, a Enhanced Magitrooper will enter the fight, who is quite agile, but susceptible to Fire.
The chest attack is powerful and deals a lot of damage, but it reveals a core that can be stolen using Steal Materia.{/ramakniebieska}
Run up to the second computer and restore power to gain access to upper level of the complex.
{ramkaniebieska}Restoring the power in this sector will unlock the door opposite to the computer, allowing you to take part in Shinra Box Buster minigame. The rules of this activity are very similar to What-A-Box minigame known from FF7 Remake - destroy as many boxes as possible to gain as many points as possible. Orange boxes are susceptible to physical attacks, blue boxes to magic and Ninjutsu, red ones increase the time limit, while white ones are more durable than others. Among the rewards, you can win, ATB Assist Materia, ATB Boost Materia, ATB Stagger Materia, Magnify Materia.
The entrance to Level B13 of Advanced Weaponry (Development) leads through a pipe on the right side. Climb it to get access to upper floor.
The Hunt Continues
Place Yuffie in such a way so she can hit the hook holding the heavy metal pillars with a shuriken and proceed to the next area.
The next room contains a welcome committee consisting of a few normal soldiers who shouldn't pose any threat to you. After the battle is concluded, continue down the corridor to Materia Research Facility room.
Once you arrive to the location, it turns out that you need to restore the power to the main system. Leave the room through a side corridor and activate the computer, then return back to the initial room.
Before you go, sit in Scarlet's chair to restore HP and MP of your heroes.
The narrow room is a background to a fight with Shinra's two elite battle units.
- Armored Shock Trooper: vulnerable to Lightning, so use Thunder/Thundara spells on it;
- Armored Magitrooper: A unit resistant to magic and having powerful laser attacks up his sleeve. The chest attack deals a lot of damage, but reveals a core that can be stolen using Steal Materia.
