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.

Before the fight kill off yur other team members and dont revive them, enter the battle with ruby, use w-summon and cast Hades followed by KOTR, (Hades will stop him and his fingers) and then mime the combination, should take about 6 turn is KOTR does around 9000 dmg per hit, if your struggling for damage add MP+ materia.

NOTE - Equip the apocalypse sword with any materia you want to grow (mime is a good choice) as it will tripple the massive ammount of AP you earn for defeating him

Set 1 member with KOTR+HP Absorb, W-Summon, Mime, and magic plus. start the fight by casting x2 KOTR, simply keep miming it. It should take about 2 turns from each member of the team to fell the beasty, and is possible and idealy done under the 20min time limit (will have about 4mins spare)as the weapon seems slower to act when your not carrying the underwater materia.

This method is a bit of risk but if done right the weapon wont have chance to grow/use its lasers or special attack just the occasional counter, which the hp absorb materia will take care of for you.

If you want to make sure get the underwater materia, and have final attack - life combination, however be warned miming after someone has revied will casue them to mime life 2, and you will have to recast KOTR hence lv4.
