Battle guide: How to defeat it.

In this boss fight, I equipped Cloud with anGotterdammerungto fight the enemy.

The Whisper Battle 1st, 2nd, 5th and 7th Level has a special target mechanism.

・Whisper Rubrum(Red)→Targeting the Cloud

・Whisper Croceo(Yellow)→Targeting the Barret

・Whisper Viridi(Green)→Targeting the Tifa

Aeris, like Barret, will be targeted by Whisper Croceo(Yellow).


1st Level: Whisper Rubrum, Viridi and Croceo

・I'll just focus on the guard.

At this stage, when Whisper Harbinger's "Correction" is activated, all three of them are forced to disappear and go to the next area.

Or, if you eliminate one of the three (remove half your HP), it will trigger  ”Correction”.

If you want to trigger it quickly, I recommend the following method.


・Cloud's Counterstance eliminates Whisper Rubrum.

Take control of Cloud. Get away from your friends and use Punisher Mode -> Counter to deal damage.

Once the ATB builds up, I recommend hitting Whisper Rubrum with a counterattack to eliminate him.


2nd Level: Whisper Rubrum, Viridi and Croceo

・We can proceed in the same way we attacked the first stage.

At this stage, when Whisper Harbinger's "Intercession" is activated, all three of them are forced to disappear and go to the next area.

Use the same fighting style as in the first stage and focus on eliminating Whisper Rubrum.

Sometimes it will activate "Intercession" before it disappears.


3rd Level: Whisper Rubrum

The third and fourth levels will be aimed at the control character.

You must also remove a certain amount of the Whisper Harbinger's HP to advance to the next stage.

You cannot target Whisper Harbinger.

You reduce the HP of one of the three monsters to 0 and make it Staggerd.

From there, you can reduce that Whisper Harbinger's HP by dealing more damage.

・We can proceed in the same way we attacked the first stage.

There is only one Whisper Rubrum, so make it Pressure state on the Counterstance.

From there, turn it into a Stagger state and attack it at once.


4th Level: Whisper Viridi and Croceo

・Acsention at the start.

Defeat the Whisper Viridi that are attack quickly.


The most important thing is after this (build up the limit gauge).

Don't defeat the Whisper Corceo yet. Stay on the defensive and build up Cloud'slimit gauge.

The cloud will build up on its own with Gotterdammerung, so the rest of the time it's recommended to build up while taking guard damage.

When it builds up, use attacks and abilities to defeat Whisper Viridi.


5th Level: Whisper Rubrum, Viridi and Croceo

・We'll attack it the same way we did in the first stage.

Early on, three of them combine to transform into the sixth level of Whisper Bahamut.

If you do not transform, use the cloud to defeat Rosso in a Counterstance.


6th Level: Whisper Bahamut

・Acsention at the start.

You will probably be in a Pressured state with a Acsention, but it's hard to get it to Stagger state.

Use a technique that deals a lot of damage in this Pressured state to attack.

When you defeat it, it splits into three bodies again at the seventh level.


7th Level: Whisper Rubrum, Viridi and Croceo

・We'll attack it the same way we did in the first stage.

First, let's take down Whispering Rubrum with Cloud's Counterstance.

Defeat the remaining Whisper Viridi and Whisper Corceo. I recommend attacking with a Cloud that won't target you.

If you can use a Acsention as well, use it here; you don't need it at 8th level.


8th Level: Whisper Harbinger

・Let's take down the monsters with Aeris.

You can take them down quickly. Attack with Aerith's Soul Drain if you want to save MP.

After defeating him, you will proceed directly to the Battle of Sephiroth.→Sephirothbattle guide(Boss-Hard)
