Number of guides I've seen for this bast. and Ruby Weapon ... still never been able to get either of them 20+ years later.

i've killed it many many times since 97

stuff that can be used - big guard (barrier/mbarrier/haste), regen ring, knights of the round (especially if you have w-summon and character/s with mime), sneak attack (paired with knights), final attack (paired with phoenix)

you can equip a 9999 hp character with 2 materias -> emerald uses aire tam storm which does 1111 damage for each materia on the character -> character goes lucky 7s

discovered this back in the day

combine that with knights and that's it

also omnislash

to beef up your characters you can spend some time in gelnika and morph enemies into sources that permanently increase stats

who cares, at this point music is just regurgitation of regurgitation ... (n times), where n->infinity

more ai-generated junk certainly won't change that

Paul Viminitz - The Deer Hunter Paradox

https://scholar.uwindsor.ca/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1783&context=ossaarchive

Quote

Michael Cimino’s The Deer Hunter contains a scene so riveting and nuanced that it is destined to enter - if it is not there already - the canon of ‘great moments in cinema’, along with the baby carriage scene from Battleship Potemkin, the shower scene from Psycho, and the faked orgasm scene from When Harry Met Sally. But dramatic impact aside, an analysis of the first Russian Roulette scene from The Deer Hunter also provides a metaphor for virtually the entire corpus of social and political philosophy. A full and more formal cashing out of these parallels is subject for another day - or lifetime!1 But the scene also depicts at least one - but arguably several - egregious errors in interactive reasoning. And so here I want to confine myself to the following question: Are those errors just Kahneman-Tversky-type glitches in the characters’ capacities to reason - glitches which are certainly understandable given the highly stressful conditions under which they are required to perform? If so, there is grist aplenty for psychology in The Deer Hunter, but little or none for rational choice theory. Or does the scene reveal a genuine inadequacy in our current understanding of interactive rationality - the resolution of which would have profound implications for rational choice theory and its myriad applications? I suspect the latter. Let’s see if I am right.
