Description
Overpower is a weapon ability for Tifa in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, provided to her by the Kaiser Knuckles. Tifa runs towards an enemy, then leaps forward feet first, and performs three kicks, somersaulting after the third to land back on the ground. After using Overpower, Tifa's follow-up basic attacks will begin partway through her attack combo. Using Overpower at a higher chi level will change the attack.
Obtained[]
Overpower is provided by the kaiser knuckles. Using it enough with the kaiser knuckles equipped will learn the ability permanently. Proficiency bonus is gained for using a normal attack after using Overpower.
Use[]
Overpower is Tifa's fastest ability in terms of animation time. It is effective good for interrupting and pressuring enemies. Because it impacts her basic attack follow-up, it is therefore used best when spliced into a combo with basic attacks, playing into her strengths. Overpower can also be used while airborne.
Because pressuring staggers enemies much more quickly, and Tifa thrives on attacking staggered enemies, Overpower can be a useful tool for her. Overpower's big drawback is that larger enemies are less easily pressured by it. Because many enemies are pressured more easily by targeting their elemental weakness, meaning Elemental Materia can be a good pairing.
