Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII: Reunion

Best Defensive and Status Magic Materia Fusion Combinations

By
Matt Chard

When you unlock Materia Fusion in Crisis Core Reunion, you’ll soon realize that the game doesn’t really restrict you when combining Materia. Although this is a good thing, it can lead to some really strong combinations, some which can outright break the difficulty of the game. Thankfully, this page will list some of the strongest combinations for all the Defensive, Status, "Drain" iconDrain, "Gravity" iconGravity and Restorative Magic Materia.

Quake is an area of effect attack magic around yourself. This won’t hit floating enemies though.

All Other Magic Materia Fusion Combos

These are just some possible combinations to create the respective Materia. For example, place "Fire" iconFire in the first slot, and "HP Up" iconHP Up in the second slot to obtain "Barrier" iconBarrier. Abilities marked with “(M☆)” means that the ability needs to be a fully upgraded Master Rank version of the spell. If there is only one “(M☆)” in the list, either of them can be a Master Rank. When you see “Any DMW”, this means use any materia which impacts the DMW like "Rush Assault" iconRush Assault.
