Use[]
ATB Assist materia increases the teammates' ATB gauge after executing ATB abilities in quick succession. There must be minimal delay between the abilities, and if used properly, it can greatly increase the party's damage output (such as during stagger).
ATB Assist materia is very beneficial for Tifa and Yuffie as both build ATB very quickly, and use abilities that are often used multiple times in quick succession. However, ATB Assist can be broadly useful on any party member whom the player controls frequently. Yuffie Brumal Form can build it especially quickly.
ATB Assist materia can be used in combination with other materia that also increase characters' ATB gauges: First Strike Materia,
ATB Stagger Materia,
Skill Master Materia, and
ATB Boost Materia. By using these materia to increase the ATB gauge of one party member who has ATB Assist, said party member can then transfer it to boost the ATB rates of others. It can also be used in conjunction with Aerith's ATB Ward.
