What is the secret to learning limit breaks?

[Crossblades]

I started a new game in FF VII and I want to know the secret to learning limit breaks. In my other file, I beat the game while Tifa and Barret still had their level 1 limit breaks and the others still had Level 2 or part of level 3. Are their requirements to learning limit breaks, like do my characters have to be at a certain level to learn them or do I need use the limit breaks a certain number of times to learn more? Help me please

Use limit break 8 times to get the second for that level. Kill 60 enimies with that char for the next lvl.

The 1st set of limits are afffected by number of kills a single character has done. The
2nd set is affected by number of times a character has done the 1st set of limits.

The number of kills is different for some characters... but it is usually around the 60 - 80 kills

The number of limits needed to obtain 2nd set of limits ranges from around 8 to 4...

I'm always surprised by how many people don't know this.

1-1: Each character starts with this one.
1-2: The character must have performed his 1-1 Limit Break eight times.

2-1: The character must have killed 80 enemies.
2-2: The character must have performed his 2-1 Limit Break eight times.

3-1: The character must have killed an additional 80 enemies.
3-2: The character must have performed his 3-1 Limit Break eight times.

4-1: You must acquire this Limit Break as an item, and the character must have learned all his previous Breaks (1-1 through 3-2) before you can apply it to him.

Exceptions: Cait Sith only has two Limit Breaks. He starts with Lucky Dice and has to kill 80 enemies to learn Slots. Vincent only has four Breaks. He starts with Garian Beast, must kill 60 enemies to learn Death Gigas, must kill another 60 enemies to learn Hell Masker, and his final Break is learned by acquiring it as an item and then applying it once he's learned the previous three.

Is that accurate or is it approximate?

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

It's exact.

[Crossblades]

Ok, thanks. i'll give it a shot

But I also heard that there are glitches that don't allow you to learn a limit break no matter how many times you kill enemies, etc.

3-2: The character must have performed his 3-1 Limit Break eight times.

Thats strange. My Cloud only needed to do six Meteorains to learn Finishing Touch. Oh well...

Well, to put you at ease, I've played the game numerous times and gotten everyone's Limit Breaks without once suffering a glitch.

Damn!! I guess I'm not the only one who beat this game various times either...

[Lost Number]

Not by a long shot.

[crashNUMBERS]

Glad to know that I'm not alone...

[Lost Number]

8 times and counting. I know at least 4 other people too.

[crashNUMBERS]

4 for me..

And 3 for 9, 5 for 10, 4 for 8, 2 for 1,2,3,4 and 6 for X-2(it was to get 100%, okay?).
