A sword for those who want to max out Cloud's magic ability

When fully upgraded, this weapon has a magic attack stat of 138, making it the second highest in the game. This weapon is great if you prefer to do combat with a heavier emphasis on magic.
The skills you will want to prioritize are all of the magic attack buffs and MP regeneration. After that, you'll want to get the extra materia slots, Max MP up (and Trade-Off), and MP cost reductions. With your remaining SP, get the offensive and defensive upgrades as you see fit.
