Learn the best way to max stats in Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion by farming Dark Matter and utilizing Materia Fusion with this comprehensive guide.
To maximize your stats in Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion, you'll want to equip specific accessories that boost your HP, MP, and AP. These include the Adaman Bangle or Genji Armor for 99,999 HP, the Gold Hairpin for 9,999 MP, and the Black Cowl for 9,999 AP. Accessories like Ziedrich and Divine Slayer can also increase your stats across the board.
The primary method for stat maxing involves farming Dark Matter, which increases MAG when fusing items in Materia Fusion. Mission 6-6-3 is the ideal location for this, as running back and forth between the objective room and the preceding area will frequently spawn Lesser Worms, which drop 2-3 worms per encounter.
To ensure Dark Matter drops are rare, equip the Mog's Amulet, which guarantees rare drops. This accessory can be purchased from the Sec. 7 shop for 10,000 Gil after completing mission 4-4-3: Infiltration. Additionally, equip the Jeweled Ring to double enemy drops. This ring can be found in a treasure chest in mission 9-5-4: Abnormal Power or obtained as a drop from a Magic Pot. With both accessories equipped, you'll consistently get 2x Dark Matter per worm.
Once you have approximately 99 Dark Matter, fuse them into your desired Materia to raise its MAG stat to 99. Be cautious: raising it to 100 will prevent further attribute changes. The following table details which materials affect which stats and where to obtain them:
