How to Beat Maloceros

Fill the Stagger Meter Quickly With Tifa

Tifa's basic attacks will fill an enemy's stagger quickly so it is best to attack as her to fill up the meter.

How to Pressure and Stagger Enemies

Choose Dynamic Difficulty if Your Level is Way Higher than the Fiend Intel

If you are trying to pressure the enemy and your level is way too high, there is a chance that you'll defeat the enemy even before pressuring them. To solve this, switch to Dynamic difficulty as the enemies' level will scale with you, providing a challenge and an opportunity to complete the Fiend Intel's mission

Dynamic Difficulty and Difficulty Settings

Retry if You Fail an Objective

If you fail an objective such as pressuring the enemy, you can always retry the Fiend Intel by holding the Triangle button.

Equip Assess Materia to Scan Enemy Information

It is highly recommended to equip the Assess Materia and Assess the Fiend to figure out their pressure conditions and also what their weaknesses or resistances are.
