This is the Ultimate Guide to beat Top Secrets. More than just beating them, you'll totally dominate them.
This guide also exists in written format: [ Ссылка ]
It is very detailed and it allows me to explain everything, the gear and materias choices, the mechanics, the reasoning behind the strategies, you'll probably learn a few things!

Note: Synergy Materia is seriously OP since the Intergrade update (PS5 and PC only). If you're on PS4, I'm sorry but Synergy Materia isn't worth it. Also, you will do less damage since you won't get the extra spells from Synergy Materia with Aerith, so things will be a little harder. I actually recommend following my old Top Secrets guide if you're on PS4: [ Ссылка ]

But you should still check out the new version of my guide because there are some nice tips I didn't mention in the old PS4 version, especially about Leviathan, Bahamut and Pride & Joy.

STATS AND WEAPON UPGRADES

Upgrade your weapons to reach these stats:

Cloud: 138 Magic Attack
Tifa: 164 Attack
Aerith: 164 Magic Attack

You can reset your upgrades at Chadley if needed.

3x Fury Ring is mandatory. You can get them quickly in Corneo's Mansion with Chapter Select 14.

Fury Rings increase our damage output by a lot, which allows us to apply Pressure to bosses when you normally wouldn't be able to. Don't worry about taking damage or healing, this strategy makes sure those bosses will never get a chance to hit you, with the exception of Leviathan.

Music: I had to remove the gameplay music in the Fat Chocobo fight because of a stupid copyright claim, so instead I used this amazing Cyberpunk song: [ Ссылка ]
