Final Fantasy VII - Tifa's super-fast hits vs Ruby Weapon
ファイナルファンタジーVII-ティファの超高速パンチvsルビーウェポン
This time i used the Quadra-gain glitch with 4x-Cut. 2x-Cut and 4x-Cut are glitchy because the number of hits 4X Cut will do is between 7 & 11 depending on how many Quadra Magics were equipped. 2X cut is similar but it does between 5 hits and 9. I was pretty disappointed when i noticed 4x-Cut didnt hit 32 times but atleast 11 hits are not that bad.
Equipment
‣ Cloud: Ultima Weapon, Wizard Bracelet, White Cape
‣ Tifa: Premium Heart, Mystile, Ribbon
‣ Cait Sith: Trumpet Shell, Wizard Bracelet, Sprint Shoes
Materia
‣ Cloud: [Counter=Mime, Magic Counter=Contain(3), Counter=Mime, Quadra Magic=Master Magic]
[Quadra Magic=Master Magic, Quadra Magic=Master Magic, Quadra Magic=Master Magic, Quadra Magic=Master Magic]
‣ Tifa: [Counter=Mime, Magic Counter=Restore, W-Item=Double Cut]
‣ Cait Sith: [Sneak Attack=Time(1), All=Time, W-Item]
Use of multiple Quadra Magics
The first one adds 3 extra casts to the linked compatible spells or summons: all spells but Escape and all summons but KotR. (And no, you can't quadra KotR normally, or with Master Summon or Magic Counter. With Mime... well, you'll see.)
Each additional Quadra linked with the same spells or summons gives them 1 extra cast. The casts this way are limited to 8.
Auto Mimes general rules
The auto actions are first in the order of the equipped Materias.
The auto mimes look to what they will copy: the previous trigger if there's any, or the action that happened before the combo elsewise.
The auto mimes are performed after the other auto actions.
Quadra-loss glitch
If the second mime of that chain was supposed to mime a non-quadra action, then the first one will be non-quadra too; if it was supposed to mime a quadra action, that action will lose quadra. Hopefully, the opposite is true too, so...
Quadra-gain glitch
If the second mime of that chain was supposed to mime a quadra action, then the first one will be quadra too; if it was supposed to mime a non-quadra action, that actions will gain quadra.
And since that action gets a free quadra effect, then you can apply it to:
✶ KotR, E. Skills and Commands, despite they're incompatible when paired directly. Note: Command materias like Slash-All, Double Cut, Steal, Sense, Throw, Morph, Deathblow & Manipulate will have their extra casts animations skipped, just the the 1st one is visible.
✶ Limits, which can have animation glitches.
✶ Items, but only the 1st one is visible, the extra ones have their animation skipped.

➼ Ruby: attacks Cloud with Righ Tentacle
• Cloud counters
‣ Tornado - x8 (32/2-1 = 15% chance of inflicting Confusion)
‣ Mime (4x-Cut) - x8, targeting himself because he is confused and dies
‣ Mime (Tornado) - x8 (skipped because he is dead)
• Tifa: uses Mime (4x-Cut - x8, only 2 hits are visible but she is hitting 11 times)
Ruby Weapon dies with the 10th mime of Quadra 4x-Cut. Although the visible damage was only 207,364, she actually did over 800k damage.
Note: When you are using Quadra 4x-Cut, the first hit shows the damage that you are dealing per hit, and the second one shows the total damage dealt by the last 10 hits, capped at 9999.
If for example the first hit shows 6500 damage, that indicates each of your 11 hits are dealing close to that damage. The second hit would show 9999 damage but you are actually dealing 6500 * 10 = 65,000 damage. That means Tifa is dealing around 65000 + 6500 = 71,500 damage per mime.
