The new Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, like its predecessor Remake, continues the real-time battle system over the turn-based format of the original game. While it is easier to get into, it can sometimes be confusing having to manage skills on top of your normal attacks. Many people even claim that the battles in this game are harder than the previous ones. So whether you are just starting out or looking to complete the World Intel mission, read on to find out how to pressure and stagger your enemy in FF7 Rebirth.

You need to get the Assess Materia from Chadley and use it to find your target’s weaknesses. Once you do that, you can perform the appropriate magic or physical attack to pressure them. After you assess an enemy, you will get yellow text on the left side of the screen. Each enemy has a different weakness, for example, some enemies might be weak against the ice element, while others require you to block their attacks in time, and there are many more such weaknesses.

The best way to stagger enemies is to pressure them with attacks they are weak against. This will fill their stagger bar faster, which you can find under the target's HP bar. Staggered enemies also take extra damage, so you should try to build it up as often as possible.

That's all about how to pressure and stagger your enemies in FF7 Rebirth. If you haven't finished the first game yet, check out our Final Fantasy 7 Remake section for help with the topics.
