Tifa
Tifa has the most weapons available to her in Final Fantasy 7 Remake, and picking just one for her is difficult. She’s the most versatile character in the game as well, so choosing her best weapon will largely depend on your play style.
For us, we prioritized balance once again for Tifa, as we needed her to be able to do pretty much anything in Hard Mode. For that, we went with the Sonic Strikers, which offers you six Materia slots, all in linked pairs. While the stats on this thing aren’t the highest, they ensure that Tifa becomes a reliable party member who can Pressure effectively with both physical and magical attacks, and provide healing with a fairly large MP pool and good MP regeneration.
Another good weapon for consideration is the Feathered Gloves, which has higher stats than the Sonic Strikers, and focuses on her speed and damage. However, it only comes with four Materia slots, and Tifa’s MP pool gets crippled quite a bit.
The Feathered Gloves are a good pick if you want Tifa to focus on just dealing damage with no healing responsibilities, but it’s important to note that you won’t always have Aerith in your party to take those on. Whenever you’re left with just Cloud, Tifa, and Barret, and if you’re playing on Hard Mode, you’ll want at least two party members capable of proper healing, and Cloud and Tifa are the best candidates for that.
