No, no, no... Leave this to the KH master. (BTW, that's me.
)
I am at level 78 or level 79 and I can beat Sephy right now. I got everything in this game... almost. I just saw the secret ending and damn that was nice. Okay,

Notes before the fight
-Set your magic shortcuts (L1-?) to the way you want it. I used Curaga-X Aeroga-O Firaga ^ for Sephiroth
-Don’t be intimidated by him he is the strongest opponent in the game but once you get the hang of controlling his attacks and get your strategy down, he’s not all that tough.

Sephiroth’s Attacks
Okay you’ve got all the stuff, are at a high level and think your ready to fight Sephiroth, well your not, because you don’t what a clue what’s going to happen when you walk into that ring. This will give you a little insight on what’s going to happen once you do enter that ring of hell.
Most of Sephiroth’s attacks do about 25 on average but some do more then that. I made the assumption to how much damage each attack does seeing how there is no way to get the precise amount of HP taken. I’ll also say how easy it is to dodge it and what to do to try to avoid the attack.
*Side Slash* 27HP-[Easy Dodge]-Forms 1,2,3- A regular attack, simple attack. Get to close to Sephiroth and he’ll do this attack, even though this is his simplest attack as he starts to go into his different forms it seems to take a little bit more each time. Though this is his most common attack you can get hit with it just because the enormous length of his sword and his extreme quickness, but can be extremely easily Guarded .
*Forward to Back Slash* 29HP-[Avg. Dodge]-Forms 1&2- Another simple attack but a bit more harder to dodge and takes a little bit more away from you. What this attack does is when you get close to Sephiroth he will jump Forward, Slash, then jump backwards. I heard of people saying that you are able to dodge roll away from the slash but it is yet to be tested, but even if it does get test I would not recommend it just because you are not able to guard while you’re running which is a very valuable Ability.
*Fire Pillar* 30HP-[Avg. Dodge-depends if you’re close to him]- Forms 1&2- A complex attack that takes a hefty amount of life. Another attack that is triggered by you getting too close to Sephiroth, what happens here is Sephiroth throws his hands in the air and three pillars made of fire reaching the sky lasts for about 5-7 seconds. If you have a lot of HP on Sora you can sneak in a couple of shots against Sephiroth before getting hit with the fire. After the attack ends Sephiroth takes a 1.5-2 second breather which is enough time for you to superglue away on heal yourself and is a huge advantage for you.
*Out of Nowhere* 25HP-[Hard Dodge]- Forms 1,2,3- This attack changes as you go trough Sephiroth’s different forms but you’ll learn to adjust. Lets start with the first form, the only time he does this attack in his first form is when you do a 4-5 hit attack combo (not any ability attacks). In forms 2&3 he’ll do it when you get to far away from him and when you do the combo. As you go to his 2&3 form this attack also seems to get a little stronger. If you get VERY lucky and are able to dodge this attack then you should quickly lock on and start a new set of attacks seeing how his is still discombobulated from his last attack.
*Blue Balls of Light* 25HP-[Avg.-Hard Dodge]- Form 3- This attack will almost always catch you off guard. What happens is this is the first attack in a string of attacks that Sephiroth form 3 does, he creates a blue forcefield around himself and then does the attack (the forcefield makes him invulnerable to all attacks so don’t think about it). The attack starts as Sephiroth in the middle of the ring throws arms in the air and summons these blue balls of light to come out and attack you. There are about 7-9 Balls of Light in each attack but at this point of the battle the fight should be very fast paced and he should not get this attack off the ground more than 3 times tops.

*Dodge This* 30HP-[Hard Dodge]- Forms 2&3- This attack seems very simple yet it gets used very rarely. There is really not much to say about this attack, as you can tell from the name of the attack it is very hard to dodge, but other then that you really won’t see much of this attack during the Sephiroth battle.
*Falling Meteors* 30HP-[Avg. Dodge]- Form 3- The second part of that string of attacks that Sephiroth form 3 does. Once again he is in the middle of the ring when this happens, he begins to summon 5-6 meteors to start falling down into the ring. Each meteor is about the size of 2 Sephiroths put together and are usually easy to dodge. Whatever you do just don’t jump to try to avoid the meteors, I’m pretty sure you can Superglide away from them but definitely DON’T TRY TO GLIDE AWAY!
*Side Meteors* 25HP-[Hard Dodge]- Form 3- The Third and final part of his 3 set attack where his stands in the middle of the ring invulnerable to your attacks. Once again summoning 5-6 meteors but instead of having them fall out of the sky Sephiroth summons them to surround him and begin to go into a circular pattern. The strategy that I used to take this attack out of Sephiroth’s playbook was to stand in the end of the ring and jump whenever I saw a meteor coming and if I felt ballsy I would fly around the edge of the ring and see if I get hit but usually I didn’t.
****SIN HARVEST**** ALL BUT 1 HP & NO MP- [Un-dodgeable]- Forms 2&3- Sephiroth’s Ultimate attack bottom line. This is the one that you’ll beat the crap out of your little brother (for looking at you the wrong way) after you die from this. Well here is what happens he begins to say SIN HARVEST and then disappears, at this point you should have your item menu open and be ready to use and elixir, he comes back and at this point you should be in the opposite of the ring as him just in case something goes wrong with the elixir. Remember there is absolutely no way to dodge this attack so please don’t e-mail me. After he comes back he does his attack, ULTIMATLY DEVASTATING. The attack leaves you with 1 HP and no MP, after you lose your hard earned H&MP he begins to run at you with full force, what you should have done was the elixir just before he used the attack so that the elixir sets in about a second after he does SIN HARVEST so it will be like nothing even happened but trust me it is not that simple at all you have to time it down to the exact second which is extremely hard and unfortunately there is no real strategy I can give you for that, you just have to practice.

So for now, your ass is grass and Sephy is the lawn-owner, my friend. Any more help, just ask me. I have fought all the secre bosses... Ask me anything about this game and I'll give it to you right away!
