Battle

Field model of Carry Armor.

Carry Armor can grab and immobilize two random characters and the arms will do damage to each character until they are defeated. The arms will hold onto each character until the corresponding arm is defeated. Its powerful Lapis Laser attack can deal overwhelming damage unless protected and may use it as a first attack before battle starts.

If Carry Armor immobilizes two characters and kills the third member, the battle is declared a loss, similar to how Reno or Bottomswell win if two characters are trapped and the third is killed.

Because Carry Armor is a machine, it is weak against Lightning.

If the central armor dies, the entire enemy is defeated.

Strategy

Since Carry Armor's Lapis Laser is non-elemental, the player can only reduce damage from the attack by using MBarrier, the Sadness status effect, or by increasing the Spirit stat with accessories, such as Talisman or Circlet.

Using Bolt3 paired with an All Materia works well and the characters can also link a Lightning-elemental Materia with Elemental to a weapon to deal increased damage. The Summons Kjata, Alexander, Bahamut, and Neo Bahamut will deal high damage against it, as well as the Enemy Skill Magic Breath. The Dragon Fang item and multi-hit Limit Breaks are effective as well.

It is possible to use the Enemy Skill Magic Hammer to reduce Carry Armor's MP to zero, rendering it unable to use Lapis Laser. Similarly, destroying the arms renders it unable to perform Arm Grab and normal attacks, and the use of Magic Hammer alongside this leaves Carry Armor harmless.

Glitches and phenomena

Final_Fantasy_VII_-_All_Lucky_7s_While_Imprisoned-2

Final Fantasy VII - All Lucky 7s While Imprisoned-2

From 1:30 onwards.

All Lucky 7s will trigger even if Imprisoned by Carry Armor. If a character is grabbed by Carry Armor when Lucky 7 activates, a graphical glitch will happen where the character will attack, but will no longer be attached to the arm they were captured by.

A curious phenomenon happens if Cait Sith is in the party and uses his Transform Limit Break after Carry Armor has already grabbed a party member. When Cait Sith uses the Transform Limit Break, the two other allies disappear from the field and Cait Sith grows larger. The grabbed party member will disappear from the screen, but the game still considers the Carry Armor holding a player character. If the player then attacks the arm supposedly holding a party member, Cait Sith receives damage himself. If Carry Armor grabs the giant Cait Sith, the battle ends in a Game Over.

The Quadra Magic Ultima glitch affects Carry Armor: it involves casting Ultima against Carry Armor with Quadra Magic, while the Ultima Materia is also linked to HP or MP Absorb. Casting Ultima with this setup may freeze the game.
