Sephiroth is easily the hardest boss in the original ''Kingdom Hearts'' and a great deal of prepation is needed. First, ''[[Strike Raid]]'', ''Second Chance'', ''[[Dodge Roll]]'' and ''MP Rage'' are absolutely essential. If possible, equip two ''MP Rage'', meaning, unless you chose the staff, you'll have to be at Level 66 to earn the second ''MP Rage''. Otherwise, being above Level 55 is best. Do not equip any other special abilities like ''[[Ragnarok]]'' or ''[[Sonic Blade]]''. Equip any other abilities to boost Sora's power like ''Berserk'' and ''Critical Plus''. ''Scan'' is useful, as it lets you see Sephiroth's HP and know when he's about to enter the next phase of the battle, but there are other signs to let you know this. If possible, equip the [[Ultima Weapon]] keychain, but otherwise equip weapons to boost Sora's MP and magic abilities. [[Oathkeeper]], [[Lionheart]] or [[Fairy Harp]](It's limited range may hurt more than it helps) work for this. Also equip as many [[Elixir]]s as possible, or Megalixirs if you are out of Elixirs, and be sure to get [[Curaga]] from [[Aerith]] in [[Hollow Bastion]]. Finally, equip accessories to boost Sora's defense and HP. Gaia Bangles or Omega Arts work for this. | Sephiroth is easily the hardest boss in the original ''Kingdom Hearts'' and a great deal of prepation is needed.

Also note that all of Sephiroth's attacks except for Stigma count as the dark element, so equipping armor to resist that element will help greatly. | ||

Sephiroth's final phase begins with him casting SuperNova. The meteors can be dodged with moderate difficulty. When Sephiroth begins the attack's end, target him and use ''Strike Raid'' - this will not damage him as Sephiroth is invincible while using SuperNova, but will make you immune to the attack's final hit | Sephiroth's final phase begins with him casting SuperNova. The meteors can be dodged with moderate difficulty. When Sephiroth begins the attack's end, target him and use ''Strike Raid'' - this will not damage him as Sephiroth is invincible while using SuperNova, but will make you immune to the attack's final hit. The final hit can also be dodged with some skill and luck by ''Dodge Rolling'' behind Sephiroth as he uses it. Sephiroth will also begin using Shadow Flare quite often and start erratically teleporting while spinning and slashing, leaving Shadow Flares in his wake. Although this is daunting to avoid, you shouldn't even try, as during this time Sephiroth is vulnerable and you should use ''Strike Raid'', both avoiding damage and hitting him at the same time. This is perhaps the best time to hit Sephiroth, when he is using Shadow Flare. | ||
Sephiroth also retains all the attacks from his previous two phases. He still casts Heartless Angel but no longer calls out the name of the move, making it vital to keep him targeted to know when he's casting it. Sephiroth also still uses Omnislash, and may even use it twice in a row, so be wary. He also still uses Stigma when interrupted while casting Heartless Angel. | Sephiroth also retains all the attacks from his previous two phases.
