Limit Breaks are a set of special moves from Final Fantasy VII that each character can use once they have received a certain amount of damage. Many of the characters have a 4th hidden Limit Break, which you can find and use only when you have learned the previous three. To read the information on finding these 4th Limit Breaks, visit Side Quests & Extras (FFVII).

Each Limit Level has two attacks which are gradually learnt. However, there is a method to learning these new limit attacks/levels. We shall use Cloud as an example. His first Limit Attack is Braver. To gain the next Limit Attack in Level 1, he must use Braver a set amount of times before learning Cross Slash. However, to gain entry to the next Limit Level, Cloud must (dealing the final blow) kill a large amount of monsters and then the process repeats again in each Limit Level. This applies to all characters, with the exception of Cait Sith and Vincent who only have one Limit Attack per Level and must kill a set number of monsters before advancing to the next level.
