This battle consists of two phases: the Laser phase and the Stop phase. Obviously, all the action happens during the former and you need to be extra careful here. One small mistake can very easily lead to a game over. Attack pattern:

1. Laser (1, 2 or 3 times)
2. Tail Laser (1 or 2 times)
3. W-Laser (1, 2 or 3 times)
4. Nothing
5. Gas (50% chance)
6. Stop
7. Nothing
8. Nothing
9. Repeat

You can't survive a lot, and Cloud and Aerith can't even survive two attacks if they're not defending, so you really need to be defending for the single lasers. The Stop phase is boring, but this is where you deal most of the damage. Of course, Stop had to stick all three times, making the battle lasted longer than I had hoped. I sped it up a little.

This is the regular version of FFVII and Hardcore is only the name of the challenge. Rules:

- No Damage Dealing Items
- No HP Plus
- Level 1 Materia Only
- No Sources
- No Poison
