Final Fantasy 7 Remake Elemental Materia: How to Get

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Elemental Materia can be some of the most useful materia in Square Enix' beloved remake.

There are a few ways to get this materia. It tends to be rare, so be prepared to do some major digging. Currently, there are only two places to find it. Players can earn elemental materia by solving puzzles in Chapter 6 through a Collapsed Passageway or by completing all the side quests in the game and coming up topside in Chapter 14.

This materia adds elemental armor or damage to a specific weapon or character. Players can activate this effect by slotting the materia into a specific weapon or armor item before going into combat. Each elemental materia is linked to a specific element—so it goes without saying that the linked element will correspond with your damage and protection.

When slotted with a weapon, the weapon's basic attacks will now deal elemental damage. It comes in three levels. Level one adds 8% elemental damage to the damage dealt, level two provides 15%, and level three gives players 23%.

When slotted with armor, the character will gain resistances and even immunity to the linked element. This also comes in three levels. Level one splits the damage received from that element in half. Level two will prevent damage associated with that element. At level three, the armor will absorb the linked elemental damage entirely.
