Best Synergy Skills And Abilities In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth - Best Synergy Skills and Abilities

Synergy Skills and Abilities are one of the new mechanics that Remake introduced. They are devastating attacks, very much like Limit Breaks, performed by two characters at once. You can unlock Synergy Skills and Abilities during the gameplay, and using them strengthens the bond between two characters.

Best Synergy Skills

Each character has many Synergy Abilities and can pair with certain characters to unleash them. Here are the best Synergy Abilities we know of so far.

Melee Blade

Cloud winds up a massive sword swing to unleash massive damage. If his partner is Tifa or Cait Sith, the damage is physical. Otherwise, with Aerith or Yuffie, the damage is magical. This ability is a great option to use against Staggered or Pressured enemies.

Leaping Strikes 1

Used with Cloud and Red XIII, this ability hurls Tifa forward to the enemies. Tifa then unleashes a barrage of kicks and launches enemies into the air. The variation with other characters, Leaping Strike 2, skips the aerial part.

Friendly Fire

Barrett performs a quick shot, and then he jumps back, causing a lot of damage. I would recommend using this ability with Aerith because her ATB gauge is slow to fill, and Synergy Skills speed it up.

Spellbound Blast

This is a charge damage attack, similar to Cloud’s Melee Blade. When Aerith charges the attack entirely, it can serve some considerable damage, and it also has a decent range to boot.

Wild Charge

This attack is great for several reasons. It charges the ATB meter quickly, and Red XIII can use it with every character. It is a simple yet effective multiple-strike, and you should use it as often as you can.

Shuriken Sync

This is an excellent ability for building combos. Yuffie throws her shuriken at the enemy, and then her partner attacks that same enemy, allowing Yuffie to continue the combination.

Magic Microphone

Cait Sith’s specialty is crowd control, and this ability makes him control his partner’s attack. When he gives an order, Cloud, Tifa, or Yuffie will attack the targeted enemy.

Best Synergy Abilities

Meanwhile, Synergy Skills are special moves that can be combined with multiple characters. Here are the best Synergy Skills we know of so far.

United Refocus

This one seems pretty boring looking, but it’s beneficial. Having three ATB bars instead of two can gain some serious upper hand over the toughest enemies.

Firework Blade

Ability that keeps both Cloud and Aerith at a safe distance and increases Aerith’s Limit level. The latter unlocks Aerith’s Planet Protection Limit.

Synchro Cyclone

This Ability combines Cloud’s and Tifa’s staggering damage into a monstrous attack with enemy knockdowns and an MP cost buff.

Sweet-and-Sour Salvo

This Ability looks so fun, and the effects are very practical. It boosts damage, extends Stagger time, and keeps Aerith close to the tankest character, Barret.

Relentless Rush

Besides looking awesome, Relentless Rush neutralizes enemy range and boosts attack, and opens enemies for a destructive follow-up with Limit Breaks. For more Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth guides, try out Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Review: The golden standard for a modern day remake on Pro Game Guides.
