Battle[]

Defeating the mysterious spectres increases the Enigmatic Spectre's stagger gauge and makes it available to target. The spectres use single-target physical attacks, and may impale or bind the player characters. Attacking the spectre when it is binding a character with the other character releases the victim faster.

Strategy[]

The player can use magic and Triple Slash as Cloud. When playing as Tifa, the player can first use Whirling Uppercut and while midair use Divekick. When Aerith is in the party in Chapter 12, she can help with magic use.

Hard Mode[]

The player needs to stagger the mysterious spectre before defeating it. First tier spells can be used to pressure the spectre, then stagger with Focused Thrust]/Focused Strike. In Chapter 12, Aerith's MP pool can be used to defeat the spectres as she does not partake in any more battles after this.

Musical themes[]

The battle music is the "Whispers' Theme" (フィーラーのテーマ, Fīrā no Tēma?), composed by Masashi Hamauzu.
