A well-balanced weapon for Tifa

This weapon can be upgraded for an excellent balance of attack and defense. In the beginning, you should prioritize the Unbridled Strength upgrade, after which you should move on to attack and materia slot upgrades, followed by defensive stat boosts. In the end, this is not a spectacular weapon, so you'll want to switch over to the Metal Knuckles or Feather Gloves once you have them in your possession.
