Ultimate Weapon

 * Coming soon...?

Ruby Weapon
Ruby Weapon is an optional boss that shows up in the Corel Desert around the Gold Saucer, once Ultima Weapon is defeated on CD 2 or 3. To fight it, you need to steer the airship to the red thing that sticks out of the sand. But be well prepared.

General things
To defeat Ruby Weapon, here is a general list of the items you will need:


 * The fight nets a ridiculous amount of AP, which you should take advantage of. Preferrably, use a weapon with triple growth, loaded with materia. (Scimitar for Cid, or the Apocalypse for Cloud). Use double growth weapons if these aren't available. Otherwise, go for the best equipment armor and weapon wise.
 * Final Attack-Revive or Final Attack-Phoenix combination.
 * Hades, Knights of the Round, and Mime Materia Mastered. W-Summon and Master Summon Materia is useful here.
 * Plenty of Elixirs.
 * Omnislash or any other multi-hitting limits help here too.
 * Lots and lots of patience.

Strategies
The other two members of your party should be down. Ruby Weapon will otherwise use the Quicksand attack, which will remove two members of your party from the battle. Just kill them off before hand and keep it a one on one battle.

Ruby Weapon is not immune to Stop, so start off with casting Hades.

Emerald Weapon
Emerald Weapon is another ridiculously hard optional boss, as you might have gathered. It has 500,000 or 1,000,000 HP i reckon (not sure which one, am playing through FFVII again and played it first time ages ago) and like Ruby, can remove two members of the party. Final Attack + Revive recommended for sure.

It's found in the ocean, so you need the sub. And as for where... look around near the Gelnika, see the vast rather fierce looking monster swimming around deep down in a sorta ocean trench and bob's your uncle.
