Defeteing The Bosses In The Wutai Pagoda
First Floor: Gorky, a winged creature
GORKY
LV: 30
HP: 3000
MP: 150
(weak vs. Wind)
Use Haste on yourself, then use the Deathblow materia repeatedly in
order to inflict lots of damage. Don't forget to heal yourself when
your life gets low. The boss can use Barrier, but he's still easy to
defeat. Yuffie gets an X-Potion once she's won the battle.
Second Floor: Shake, a penguin-like monster.
SHAKE
LV: 32
HP: 4000
MP: 180
Use the same strategy that you used against Gorky. You might try the
Barrier spell to reduce physical damage. His 'Furious Bomber' attack
causes a lot of damage, but it will fill up your Limit Break bar very
quickly. Yuffie will recieve an Turbo Ether when the fight ends.
Third Floor: Chekhov, a four-armed foe.
CHEKHOV
LV: 34
HP: 5000
MP: 210
Keep your HPs up in case you get paralyzed. Once again, using Haste,
Barrier, and then attacking with the Deathblow materia should do the
trick if your attack power is low. Yuffie's prize for winning this
battle is an Ice Ring.
Fourth Floor: Staniv, a creature swinging and iron ball.
STANIV
LV: 36
HP: 6000
MP: 240
Fight him the same way you fought Shake. Without a doubt, the easiest
boss of the Pagoda. If you win, Yuffie will get an Elixir from him.
Fifth Floor: Godo, a three-headed monster. Note that he will automatically attack you win you talk to him.
GODO
LV: 41
HP: 10000
MP: 1000
Godo's attack style changes depending on which head is facing you. He
has many attacks, including the Trine Enemy Skill and the ability to
drain your HP. He will also use his supply of MP to heal himself for
around 1200+ points per use. To beat him, deplete him MP supply by using
the Ghost Hand item or Magic Hammer Enemy Skill (you can learn it from
the Razor Weeds that live north of Wutai; they look like bunches of
grass). The other way to beat him is simply Berserk yourself, assuming
you have enough HP and your attacks do over 1200 points of damage. Your
only other tactic is to stay alive until he runs out of HP and then
attack him. You'll get Yuffie's Level 4 Limit Break Manual (All Creation
once Godo is defeated. If you got the Enemy Skill materia from the
Chocobo Sage and want to stick Trine on it, this is the only time you'll
be able to learn it, so don't miss out!
After Yuffie defeats Godo, he'll give you the Leviathan materia.
