Aps

Aps is a boss in Final Fantasy VII. Tifa, Cloud, and Aeris encounter it in the Midgar sewers.

Strategy
Aps has a definite weakness to fire, so have Aeris concentrate on casting Fire and healing the party.

Aps' Sewer Tsunami attack is its strongest attack, but this attack damages Aps as well. The tsunami wave can come from either behind the party, which causes more damage to the party than Aps, or in front of the party, which causes more damage to Aps.

Using Cloud's Cross-Slash Limit Break often paralyzes Aps for most of the fight, which makes it much easier to defeat.
