12 Best Weapons For FF7: Rebirth's Hard Mode
Once you complete the story of once, you will unlock Hard Mode, a challenging difficulty that can be hard to beat unless you use the best weapons for every character. In this mode, you cannot use items and enemies are far stronger than they were before. Without the right skills and abilities that come from weapons, it's nearly impossible to overcome obstacles throughout the story.
Many of the new weapons introduced in offer unique abilities for your characters, but only while wielding a specific sword, gun arm, staff, or other tool. You can get around this limitation by leveling up every character's weapons as you get them. This will allow you to learn that weapon's ability even while it isn't equipped, giving you the opportunity to use a party member's best weapon instead.
When attempting a Hard Mode run, you should try to learn how to play as every character in the game, so you are familiar with their unique skills and how they might match with various weapon abilities.
FF7 Rebirth’s Hard Mode is the highest difficulty setting available. Here’s how it works, and what rewards players can expect from completing it.

The Umbral Blade is perhaps the most balanced weapon for Cloud, featuring equal max stats for both the raw Attack power and Magical potential for the weapon. The ability allows you to raise Cloud's DPS through Punisher Mode, but you do not have to use Cloud as the most damaging member of your party. This weapon lets Cloud deal a lot of damage and cast powerful spells in equal measure throughout a Hard Mode run.
