Costly Punch

[Davey Gaga]

I've heard a bit of hype surrounding this Materia but I can't for the life of my figure out why. It WASTED my Octoslash materia, it takes ages to execute, it leaves me open to attack and only does 9999, which I'm doing anyway. Am I missing something with this, or is it only good if you're at a really low level?

If you have a certain materia, the name of which escapes me at the moment, you can hit 99,999. I'm pretty sure you can't hit that with anything else as fast. It really is a good materia. It does take health to execute though. Only way to beat Minerva is with costly punch.

The health isn't bothering me, it's only 1/128th of my total HP and I have 9999.

So where can I get this materia? Once I get it, to I have to have it equipped as well, or do I fuse them together?

EDIT:
NVM, it's called "Brutal", it's an accessory and I can obtain it from missions 7-4-6, 9-5-1 and 9-6-3. Yusssssssss.

Both equipped, not combined. I'm not sure but if I recall correctly the Materia is called Brutal. You should look it up just to be sure. It's the Break Damage Limit aspect of this game.

sure thing

1) No materia in the game can make you break HP, MP, AP, Damage limit.
2) you can make costly punch by fusing any punch materia with a DMW materia.
3) If your HP is in break mode Costly punch will do 0 Damage.
4) It will do 99999 damage but you most be able to break damage limit and you can't have more then your max HP.
5) Brutal, divine slayer, genji gloves break damage limit
6) Adaman Bangle, Genji armor, divine slayer, break HP limit (new limit 99999.

okay so you got costly punch next try for the brutal and adaman bangle. With Hp and damage break costly punch does great. Although with 99999/50000 HP your costly punch does 0 damage. Other then that, 50000/50000 hp costly punch should do 99999 damage.
