Rebirth continues that tradition with fresh ideas and new abilities. so here are the best weapons for each character and how to get them.
FF7 Rebirth Best Weapons for Each Character
When picking these weapons, we picked those that best suited a character’s strength and Limit Break. Your milage will vary depending on who you like the most, so don’t be afraid to mess around with other equipment.
We still recommend leveling all Weapon Abilities so you can equip all of them regardless of loadout.
FF7 Rebirth Cloud Best Weapon
For Cloud, the Slipstream Saber is undoubtedly his best option. It offers a great balance in Magic and Normal Attack power while offering a bunch of Materia Slots for you to mess around with. Its Counterstance Ability is also extremely fun to use, especially if you’re a fan of Clouds Punisher Stance.
It’s found in the 13th Chapter of the game in a chest within the Temple of the Ancients Labyrinth.
FF7 Rebirth Tifa Best Weapon
If you want to turn Tifa into the DPS Monster she was always meant to be, we recommend going with the Jarngreipr, her final set of gloves. The focus on Damage over Magic and 6 Materia slots make a great choice and its True Strike Ability is a blast to use.
Like most final weapons, they are found in a chest in the Temple of the Ancients section of Chapter 13.
FF7 Rebirth Barret Best Weapon
For Barret, the Battle Cry is arguably his best weapon. Its quick-fire use of Overcharge can not be understated and makes it perfect for a powerhouse like Barret. It also allows him to equip a myriad of support abilities while he fulfills the role of Tank.
Just like the other final weapons, this one is found in a chest at the Hall of Life in the Temple of the Ancients in Chapter 13.

That’s why we pick the Gambanteinn. Her final weapon which you can find in a chest in the Temple of the Ancients during Chapter 13.
FF7 Rebirth Red XIII Best Weapon
For Red XIII, the Brisingamen is the best pick. It offers a great balance between physical and magical attacks while also allowing Red XIII to lean more into his magical abilities. Its ability and high number of Materia Slots also make it a must-have.

Her final weapon is found in the Temple of the Ancients while progressing though Chapter 13.
