Increases your Max MP. The bonus cannot exceed +30% when more than one is equipped.
Description
MP Up materia is a Complete Materia in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth that boosts the user's max MP by a percentage based the materia's level. MP Up materia can only stack up to +30% MP, which a fully leveled MP Up materia provides.
Though MP Up materia returns from both Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VII Remake, the much lower cap and lower MP increase make the materia functionally very different from previous titles, and discourages players equipping multiple.
Obtained[]
Three Mp Up materia can be earned from combat simulator challenges. "Combat Training: Red XIII" is available since the start. "Combat Training: Sephiroth" is available at the end of the game. "Cosmo Canyon Region Intel: Level 2" rewards a level 3 MP Up, and is unlocked for battling 22 enemies in the Cosmo Canyon Region.

MP Up in Mythril Mine.
The player can find an MP Up materia in the lower layer of Mine Depths of the Mythril Mine. When in control of Barret in chapter 3, "Deeper into Darkness", the player can find the materia before climbing the room with the vines at the back area of the cave.

Mp Up on Mt. Corel.
Another MP Up is found in the foot of Mt. Corel: from the second yellow arrow left by Yuffie on the mountainside, the player can turn right and drop down.
A level 2 MP Up can be won for A-ranking "Tifa's Theme" in the piano minigame; the sheet music is in the Grand Royal Hotel in Costa del Sol.
MP Up can be purchased from shops that sell materia for 2000 gil apiece from Gongaga onward.

Use[]
The MP Up materia provides a percentage boost to a party member's max MP. Since its increase is capped at a 30%, this means at max level, there is no benefit from equipping multiple MP materia on one party member. Party members who expect to cast spells often throughout battle should typically equip the materia if they have free slots.
MP Up materia is a luxury materia that should be prioritized based on how often the party member casts spells. Aerith, Cloud, Yuffie, and Cait Sith will often find themselves in the role of spellcasters due to their high Magic. Equally, it can be important for Tifa, Red XIII, and Barret if they cast spells often.
MP Up Materia Earrings can be used instead of the materia, freeing up a materia slot.
To get nigh unlimited MP reserves, the player can instead use HP⇔MP Materia, but the character will have to do with minimal HP.
