    Yet another "argh I'm stuck"

    Right, sorry about this but I'm stuck on carry armour. I know, I know its sad but i have to finish FFVII because I've otherwise completed VI to X inclusive. It keeps killing me before i even get a chance to do ANYTHING! My charecters are about level 39ish (don't laugh, i play for the game/story line, not spending hours leveling up like some). All my mate that play this say that its pathectic but oh well, any advice? thanks

    I got stuck on Carry Armor my first time through, too. In the end I went to Mideel, leveled up all my characters until I learnt Ultima, and went back. By then I had enough HP to survive his laser attack.
    It's worth your while taking out the arms. Bolt 3 and Comet them to oblivion.

    I will do this. Nothing in my life matters except this. No moment in my life exists except this moment. I am born in this moment, and if I fail, I will die in this moment.

    Carry Armor used my party for toilet paper about a dozen times before I beat it. It's one of those nasty bosses that gets everyone, first time around.

    My advice...

    * It's weak again Lightning, so equip Bolt materia on your strongest magic-user; perhaps use Elemental materia to give someone a Lightning-elemental physical attack.

    * Comet, Bahamut and Neo Bahamut are very powerful, non-elemental magic attacks. Most handy.

    *Don't overload your characters with Materia! It decreases their HP and sometimes their strength. You've gotta establish a balance - enough Materia to give your party strong magic, but not so much Materia that they have no physical defences.

    *Attack from the back row as much as possible. Long Range Materia and long-range weapons are ideal. A party of Cloud, Yuffie and Barret would serve you well.

    *Enemy Skills can help. Big Guard is one of the best defensive spells, while Trine is a good attacking spell.

    Good luck!

    Which boss is carry armour?

    The name doesnt ring a bell. I know I beat every first time (including Safer Sephiroth), except Bizarro Sephiroth.

    So, IIRC its easy. More advice when I know which boss it is.

    We fought Carry Armour to go after the Huge Materia inside the Underwater Reactor.
    It's before we got the first submarine.
    My only advice is to destroy one of its arms first. :shoot:
    I played for the storyline line too ...

    Killed me the first time. (because of that stupid laser move that it does constantly if you kill it's arms)

    He almost had me giving up the game on my first run through. Um...I dunno, make sure you have a lot of Lightning attacks. Like Materia with Bolt2 on it...or, better yet, multiple ones. It'd be good to have Ramuh levelled a few times so you can summon him, and also Bahamut and Neo Bahamut (though I can't remember if you can even get him at that point in the game)
