Final Fantasy 7 Remake: How to Get Deadly Dodge Materia
Materia was a huge part of the original Final Fantasy 7, and the Final Fantasy 7 Remake is no different. Equipping materia can provide the player with significant boosts to their power or unlock magic abilities that can turn the tide of battle.
One of these materia is the Deadly Dodge materia, which can only be found for free at a certain part of the game. For players struggling to track down this materia, here's a simple guide to finding it.
The Deadly Dodge materia allows the character it's equipped to to effectively dodge with a roll and then immediately launch into an attack. But it's not as simple as opening up a new ability that players can simply toggle during a fight.
To use Deadly Dodge, players need to tap O to dodge and then Square to attack as soon as the equipped character is back on their feet. Deadly Dodge is an area attack, so it's particularly useful when facing off against a group of enemies.
Players can pick up the Deadly Dodge materia for free if they know where to look. To start, players need to be in Chapter 2, shortly after wrapping things up with Barret and company at the game's first Mako Reactor in Midgar.
After meeting Aerith for the first time, the player will be ambushed by a number of Shinra troops. The player will continue to be hounded, so just keep heading in the direction of the train and beating bad guys until the Loveless building sign becomes visible in the Business District. From there, turn in the opposite direction and head down the road a ways, keeping to the right side of the street. The Deadly Dodge materia is a purple orb that will be sitting on the street right next to a parked car. Grab it with Triangle.
Deadly Dodge can provide the player with a quick entrance into a fight, but players should choose their materia wisely, as they have fewer slots to equip them during the early part of the game.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake is available now for PS4.
