Hello there and welcome to the first boss in FFVII without the use of any materia but the command type. I started this challenge just for fun and am going to record all of the boss fights. I'm pretty sure many of them later on will be very frustrating, but for now Guard Scorpion is fairly simple. The potion for Cloud was a waste toward the end and a quick attack before he lifted his tail a second time would have ended the fight quicker but we're just gettin' warmed up. There's plenty of bosses to go. Taken from Acid Angel 13's FAQ on gamefaqs.com: The rules of the challenge: 1. You can only equip command (yellow) materia. 2. Cloud has magic materia on him in the beginning of the game. They cannot be used and must be trashed as soon as possible. No materia can be equipped and sold later for money. This also goes for any materia initially equipped to them. 3. No W-Item cheating. The exception to this is Ruby Weapon. My own added rules.. 1. Attack speed = max 2. Must be set to "Active" time
