In Final Fantasy 7 Remake, there are five different types of Materia – Magic, Command, Complete, Summon and Support. If you want to make your characters become more powerful in the battles, you can level up Materia by acquiring AP. Basically, Ability Points (AP) help you to grow your Materia. In this guide, we will show you how to level up materia quickly in Final Fantasy VII Remake.
Fast Materia Level Up in Final Fantasy 7 Remake
In Chapter 14, you need to find and equip the Pedometer Materia which will be on the ground near Aerith’s house. It will be very obvious and unmissable. Walk 5,000 steps and it will evolve into the AP Up Materia, because the Pedometer Materia levels up after you walk around. This can be done by completing the side quests in Chapter 14 or you can even choose to walk in circles to do it.
Once you have the AP Up Materia, equip it which will give extra AP (double AP!) to Materia linked in neighboring slots. Remember to be equipped with the AP Up Materia on any party member at all times. Even though it allows you to double the AP of only one Materia at a time, it is extremely useful in the game.
Which is the best Materia in Final Fantasy 7 Remake?
Some Materia in Final Fantasy 7 are important and focusing on them will give you a lot of benefits. Like Assess Materia which helps you to figure out you enemies’ weaknesses. Then there is Fire Strike Materia that comes with a tactical advantage. Always keep Assess Materia induced to your weapon to give you an edge over understanding enemies’ weakness.
