Battle

Field model of Jenova∙SYNTHESIS.

The tentacles will damage the party for around 1,500 points, along with possibly inflicting Sadness with Absorb ability although this does not drains HP, which it only uses if part C is alive. She may inflict Fury with Repeating Slap, which it only uses if part B is alive. These tentacles recover from KO after necessarily both tentacles are KO, and both will be revived to 25% of their maximum HP.

Her Bio2 attack may inflict poison to all party members at once, and she only uses it if both tentacles are alive. Her Cure3 spell restore greatly the HP to all her allies at once and is only used if part C is alive but part B is dead. Her Stop ability is only used if part B is alive but part C is dead.

Once her health is below 15000 HP, Jenova will begin a countdown of five turns and if it reaches 0, she will cast Ultima as a final attack, which will reduce the EXP and AP gained from Jenova*SYNTHESISA to zero. However, when the countdown to Ultima is actived and if the party deplete completely the HP of the two tentacles it can still receive the AP from them. In any case if the party completely deplete the HP of the main body and the two tentacles at once will receive all spoils.

Summoning Knights of the Round during this battle will give the main body of Bizarro∙Sephiroth an extra 60,000 HP and Safer∙Sephiroth‎ an extra 80,000 HP.

Strategy

The player should take care of the tentacles first. Afterward, the party should use their best offenses to quickly dispose of the main body, which will not do much during the fight. Double Cut Materia mastered to the 4xCut ability is great for this fight.

Behind the scenes

Dragon Zombie enemy in the Northern Cave is known for casting the ultimate Enemy Skill: Pandora's Box, but only once per save file. Thus, if the player does not learn it upon the first casting, Pandora's Box may be impossible to obtain. However, the global variable for Pandora's Box is also used in the Jenova∙SYNTHESIS battle, meaning that after triggering the battle, if one were to fight another Dragon Zombie, it would again use Pandora's Box. Jenova∙SYNTHESIS is past the point of no return, however, and the only ways to get back from that point is by using some tricks to trigger a glitch in the game.

The Tentacles are identical versions of Jenova∙SYNTHESIS with the same Enemy ID, programmed to be non-visible (as opposed to additional body parts with unique IDs). This is why the Quadra Magic Ultima glitch does not work against it.

Etymology

The dot (・) is an interpunct used in Japanese to indicate that a full proper noun is two separate words. It appears in Final Fantasy VII in the boss names of Jenova's parts and Sephiroth's boss forms.
