with 8 Mastered Knight of the Round Materia,

Am I missing something here?

Barret's Ultimate Weapon has a damage modifier based on the AP of the Materia equipped to it. Knights of the Round has the highest AP total (since Underwater's cap of 16,777,215 AP will never apply to Barret's Ultimate Weapon) at 500,000 when Mastered. So 8 Mastered KotR Materia will give the highest possible boost to Barret's Ultimate Weapon, which is enough to overload the damage calculator against some enemies, resulting in an instant kill.
