I really could use some help with Aeris mimic boss, im tried everything and those flares just keeps spamming gravity 3 curing her for 9999. A hint maybe? =D
 
I'm not sure if this works, it's been a while since I fought her, but I think you might be able to cast reflect on her, then set up to be sneaky and set Element immune /absorb to gravity. Then she heals you! Or at least doesn't heal herself. (heavy boots accessory does this, I think, if you don't have the elemental materia leveled up)
You may also be able to cast reflect on your party to bounce the flares back.
Another strategy could be to try and wear out her MP, maybe? Still need to survive long enough to do it, so... magic defence equipment, sadness, and Magic Barrier to beef up your survivability! :D

Good luck! Let us know how you get on!

Well, i watched on youtube some people fighting her but apparently the fight changed on the new version, she has 2 adds that keeps healing her with gravity 3. I tried "reflect" on her to prevent the heal from gravity but the adds gravity penetrates the reflect and just heal her. I dont die on this fight, but i cant kill her. I managed to deplete one of the adds MP, but the other seems to have so much more MP(infinite?). I just moved on and dont know how to kill her.

The two Flares are like a damage check. The best thing to do is wait until one is sent away for 'Take Over' (it'll remain on the screen, unlike the Nattak fight, but will become 'still' and inactive) and then try to burst down the remaining Flare with a round of strong attacks, maybe Summons or Limits. If it can't fully heal from Demi3 then you can keep pushing on it until it dies. When the other Flare comes back from Take Over, it'd be the same thing again; burst it down. If you've been able to get Quadra Magic from the Blue cave or W-Magic from Extra Battle then that can greatly boost your nuking potential. The key, though, is to make sure everyone acts as the same time; if a Demi3 goes off after the first hit then it will effectively cancel that attack out. If all three attacks land one after the other, though, then the Demi3 heal will be much less effective as it's based on the add's current HP.

This means you want to be stable against Mimic's attacks in the meantime so you can focus more on attacking. A White Cape, Hades + Added Effect, or Peace Ring can help defend against status ailments, while MBarrier will likely reduce down all but one of her magic-based attacks. When you've got the Flares taken care of, Mimic herself is weak to Holy damage so Pearl, Alpha, or Holy + Elemental in someone's weapon would be good choices. I can post a video taking care of the boss if you'd prefer a visual guide.

Kudos Chief on how pure evil you are regarding the level 4 limit bosses - I just can't seem to beat them, even at level 80.  Any hints would be awesome.

Besides the Mimic notes above, I'd say Super Saver System is a good place to start. It's the weakest out of all the bosses, unless I've missed something about it. They've low defence/HP, weak to Bolt/Water, and only inflict a handful of statuses like Berserk and Death Sentence (though the Reflect might be a pain). And the Highwind Limit it drops is one of the strongest in the game.

Ahhh i tried to kill one of the flares quickly but i thought that they counterred with gravity 3, my mistake. Just a coincidence that it did gravity soon after i attacked. Ok man, no need for a vid. Im gonna try right now, you already helped me great time! Thanks! @Sega Chief
 
Another question =). Where can i get aqualung on late game? I get hit by it on the battle square, but my char dont get the message in battle that learned, but i did not completed the battle. I need to complete it?

Edit: Cloud in front of wallmarket, hilarious haha

Garudo in Wutai would be the simplest.

Hey man, thanks, for some reason i was guessing that aqualung was learned from the da chao boss, not the common enemy Garuda. Thanks!
 
No mods other than yours. the highwind looked fine until I got to disk 3. Loaded up the game a few more times and it still looks like this.
 
It'll be the rocket-version of the Highwind that's went wrong then. Maybe the model in world_us.lgp got corrupted somehow? The file isn't touched by the regular installer. You could try patching it with the optional World Map patch that NT has; it's just for making the three character models for Cloud, Tifa, and Cid to reflect their field models but it might fix your bright white Highwind as well.
 
Edit: was already answered! Missed this page! B)

What's the best late-game place to grind AP?

I think its in north crater, look for the area that has the Mover enemies, kill them with ignore defense attacks.
Give ethers for the Magic pots and get some AP too. =)
 
Serious problem; the installer link currently up has somehow gotten older 1.3 files in it rather than 1.35. Going to fix it just now but this isn't good :l

Edit: I'm not sure how, but an older installer for 1.3 has replaced the Main Installer 17th August file on Mega. The reason this is confusing me is because the template I use is continually updated for each patch and I rename the file for it's latest date before generating it. Also, the files on my PC that are used to generate the patch are all up to date. The only thing I can assume is that Mega has somehow replaced the new file with an older installer but kept the new name, perhaps due to similarities in the file? That's the only thing I can think of.

In any case, I'll be sweeping out all the NT files kept on Mega and probably swapping over to Mediafire again. I'll also need to double-check uploads in future just in case something like this happens again.

Edit2: Actually, not so sure now that the installer was out of date. Bit confused. I'll just gut everything anyway and upload a new set of files to be sure; there's overdue fixes needing to go in anyway.
