How the build up limit breaks, the easy and quick way:

Step 1. Make sure to do this on Disc 1 when you're able to call Aeris on your team. This strategy doesn't work on Disc 2 or 3 because no other party member has a "Fury Brand" limit break.

Step 2. When in the Train Graveyard in Midgar, make sure to steal a TON of Ethers from Deenglow enemies. It WILL help you in the long run!

Step 3. Make sure to learn Matra Magic from the Custom Sweepers in Midgar Area.

Step 4. Once you get to Junon Area, go into the forest and begin slaughtering Capparwire left and right using Matra Magic. Battles with 5 Capparwire are a big help, the more enemies you kill, the closer to your next level Limit Break you'll get. Matra Magic is very cheap and costs only a few MP when compared to Aqualung and Beta.

Step 5. Once a character learns their first second level limit break, set it and bring Aeris out. Before anything, make sure that Aeris knows "Fury Brand" and is set to her limit level 2 Limit Breaks. Drug her up with Hyper to induce Fury so her limit gague fills faster. Once it fills to the top, have her cast Fury Brand and make sure the character lets loose his/her limit break. After doing this about 6-9 times, he/she will learn his/her second second level Limit Break.

Step 6. Make sure to rotate the Enemy Skill Materia so everyone has a chance to use Matra Magic. In turn, this helps limit breaks grow.

Step 7. Once you acquire Manipulate Materia, things will be so much easier. Meaning, you can manipulate enemies to beat up Aeris while she's in Fury so you can have her cast Fury Brand. Just remember to heal Aeris so she doesn't die, remember that she's the key to building up your Limit Breaks.

Step 8. Once you get Cait Sith, Vincent and Cid, return to Junon Area and do the very same thing with Matra Magic and Capparwire. By the time you're through, everyone should have all their limit level 1, 2 and 3 Limit Breaks. Cait Sith and Red 13 should have all their Limit Breaks by the end of disc 1 (If you bothered getting Cosmo Memory).

So, any questions?
 
Nice info! I never knew this trick. I used to just go into Fury mode with Hypers, and let my team get clobbered, and then unleashed the limits. This technique is very good, I'll be sure to test it out during my next play through.
