I was lucky not to run into that but yes, it is his mod. I really do like it but I am not looking forward to trying to get Omnislash....

I finally won. by the by. It's ironic, actually. I cleared the gauntlet where all the handicaps were "Materia Broken." Somehow, I made it to the very end before Magic was broken. The final fight was with one of those dudes on pendulum thing from Nibelheim Mansion and, judging by the fact Leviathan did 114 damage, I don't think my magic would have been very effective.

It took 2 Elixirs, all of my X Potions and 1 Turbo Ether but I beat it.

And my reward was...a Protect Vest and Choco Feather????? I already have those!

I reloaded and just lost immediately. I proved I could do it, I got nothing to be ashamed of. I am not losing my precious Elixirs.
