Limit Breaks: Tifa

Tifa’s Limit Breaks are somewhat different than those of other characters. She will use each of the Limit Breaks that she has in succession, either hitting, missing or getting a critical hit, depending on your success at the slot reels that appear when she first uses her Limit Break.

Each of the descriptions below mentions that the Limit Break hits one enemy, but each of her attacks will hit one random enemy on the battlefield as it cycles through the Limit Breaks that she has obtained.
