Attacks

  • “Everyone's Grudge”: Special attack against one target, never misses.
  • “Knife”: Magic attack against one target, never misses. May inflict Death (100% chance).
  • “Move”: Special attack against one target, never misses.
  • “Move Right”: Special attack against one target, never misses.
  • “Move Left”: Special attack against one target, never misses.

Strategy

“Knife” kills a character outright, and “Everyone’s Grudge” deals 10 damage for every enemy its target has defeated, which is often thousands of points this late in the game. Master Tonberries shuffle forward slowly, so unload your strongest attacks before one gets close enough to use “Knife”. The fight is worth the risk: Command Materia IconMorph Materia turns them into Accessory IconRibbons, the best accessory in the game.
