    Default holy?

    in the FF7 instruction manual it tells you about all of the elements (fire,earth,wind E.C.T.) but it says holy as well. but no attacks on the game that i have seen have holy elemental.ive played through the game without seeing a single holy attack. does this element actually exist in battles?

    Alexander by himself or with elemental comes to mind. Past that, I can't think of any, though.

    Alexander is Holy, and there's an enemy skill called Lv 4 Holy.

    I know a way to find out, pair Alexander with elemental in your armor, then play through the game.

    Lay some grease inside my hand

    And the makings of a good plan

    Actually, there's no Enemy Skill called L4 Holy (that particular Blue Magic appears in FFIX). There is an Enemy Skill called L4 Suicide, but it isn't Holy elemental.

    Alexander's Judgment is the only ability in the game, including those exclusive to enemies, that is inherently Holy elemental.

    At a strech, the curative spells are Holy damage, but not in the literal sense.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Light Mage: "It's stupid because they don't explicitly SAY they have the Holy elemantal characteristic, when it's bloody obvious they SHOULD have. I think they just forgot to assign the Holy element to the cure materias when desiging the game. *grumble*"
    My Cure spell brings all the boys to the yard,
    And they're like: "It's better than yours."
    Damn right, it's better than yours!
    I could Heal you, but I have to charge.

    No, holy is a DAMAGE type. Cure has the ability to hurt undead monsters, while holy has just always had a seperate elemental damage category. There could technically be other monsters weak to holy that wouldn't be harmed by cure. If Cure were holy element, it would cause damage, not heal it.

    Actually, in many other FFs, most Cure abilities are considered Holy elemental despite the fact that they heal. FFVIII and FFTA are examples of this.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    You're wrong.

    Why would they cut that out for the PAL release? It doesnt even make sense.

    Yeah well in FFI cure didn't even damage undead, and in FFII holy was non elemental, so obviously Square likes to mix it up a bit ;P
