A new Final Fantasy Ever Crisis dungeon ranking event is set to take place at Mt. Nibel, where players can compete with each other to achieve the highest possible score and rank. The higher a player's rank among the group, the greater the rewards, making it a worthwhile effort.
These rewards include Blue Crystals, Materia Synthesis Materials, and other goodies. To prepare for the dungeon, we've gathered information on the enemies present in the very hard mode of Mt. Nibel. Most of these enemies are weak to Ice and Earth, so it's advisable to bring Tifa with Holiday Gloves, Sephiroth with Edged Wings, and Lucia with Holiday Revolver.
Here's a list of symbolic enemies, along with their analysis information and skill sets, allowing you to prepare your party effectively in order to attain the highest score:
