Limit Breaks are a special kind of "last-ditch" attack that characters can do that are very powerful and very helpful against powerful enemies. Usually, a limit break can inflict lots more damage than normal, but some breaks are able to provide certain effects such as full recovery.
All but two of the characters (Cait Sith anThe Limit Bar, and How to Fill It Up
In the battle window, the pink bar beside your MP indicator is known as the Limit Bar. The bar has the same amount of points as your Maximum HP amount. Each time a character takes damage, this bar fills up a point for each point of damage taken, so when the character has taken damage equal or greater than his Max HP, the Limit Bar is filled. Once that happens, the character can use his Limit. The Limit Bar does carry over from battle to battle, but will be reset if you change the limit level from within the game menu.
The Limit Bar and how to fill it up!
The Limit bar can fill up slower or faster, based on two status effects called Fury and Sadness. Sadness makes the Limit bar fill twice as slowly, while Fury fills the bar twice as fast. Sadness isn't a good thing, so it can be cured by Hyper. You can also use an additional Hyper to give a character Fury.
A character with a high-level Cover materia will take enough damage to fill the bar very quickly. Just don't forget to cure him periodically.
Using the Limit
Upon filling a limit bar, the character's next turn occurs very quickly, before an enemy has a chance to deal any more damage. When a limit command is given, it is top-priority -- in other words, limit breaks are always executed immediately. Hence they are very useful as last-ditch attacks.
Note that only the limits of a single level, whichever is the one set within the game menu, is available to you at any one time.d Vincent) have seven different Limit Breaks divided into four levels. Each of the first three levels contain two breaks, with the last break in the fourth level. Cait Sith has only two limit breaks, one in the first level and one in the second. Vincent has only four limit breaks, one per level.
You must use the Limit option in the game menu to set the character's limit level. Only one level may be used at one time. That means for most characters, only two limit breaks can be used in a battle unless you set it to a different level. Note that when you switch levels, the Limit Bar resets.
Gaining Limits
Each character starts with only one Limit Break - the first one in the first level. This section will explain how to obtain each of the other limit breaks.
Levels 1-3 Limit Breaks
This may be a little confusing at first, but learning the first and second limit breaks of a level are calculated in different ways. This is why sometimes you may gain the first limit of the next level before learning the second limit of the current level.
Gaining the first limit of any level requires that you use that character to kill a certain number of enemies. For example, Cloud's first Level 2 limit, Blade Beam, is gained after killing 120 enemies. After the battle where Cloud makes his 120th kill, when the EXP is being divided up, a notice will appear stating that Cloud has learned Blade Beam.
Gaining the second limit of any level requires that you use that character's first limit (of the same level) a certain number of times. For example, Cloud's second Level 1 limit, Cross-Slash, is received after using Braver 8 times.
But here's the problem. If you killed 120 enemies without ever using Braver enough times, then you'd get Blade Beam -- skipping right over the Cross-Slash limit. And if you then immediately changed the limit level to Level 2 just so you can use Blade Beam, then you won't be able to use Braver enough times to ever gain Cross-Slash. This could pose a problem later on for your Level 4 Limit Break (see below). We will provide limit learning requirements in the lists below so that you will be able to complete your limit break list.
For some tips on the fastest way to gain limits, read the Character Building Guide.
Please Note: The above learning process applies to levels 1 through 3 of the limit breaks only. Learning the Level 4 Limit is a completely different process.
Level 4 Limits
The fourth, and last limit level, is reserved for what is potentially the best limit break for each character, usually doing high amounts of damage multiple times. Every character has one except for Cait Sith. You cannot learn this limit in the same way as the ones in the first three levels; rather, you must find them as items, hidden throughout the game. Then, once the character has all its previous six limits (except for Vincent, who has three) then you can use the Level 4 Limit item to learn it.
Remember: You must have all six previous limits to use the Level 4 Limit.
Listed below are all the limits for each of the characters, their learning requirements, as well as the location of their Level 4 Limit Break.
