Gears and Gambits is a new mini-game that has been introduced in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Like many others, this mini-game is both challenging and entertaining. Aside from offering fun, Gears and Gambits is also the way to acquire the Cosmo Canyon Protorelic.
Gears and Gambits requires players to take down a gigantic enemy in the arena with the help of robots. The challenge needs to be completed within a certain limit, which makes it more difficult. Therefore, it is important to formulate a strategy before deciding to rush in and face the enemy. In this guide, players will find all Cosmo Canyon Protorelic locations and how they can complete Gears and Gambits.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth: All Chocobo Stop Locations
There are over 30 Chocobo Stops in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Here is how players can find all of them.
Gears and Gambits 1 Location
The first location of the Cosmo Canyon Protorelic is marked on the map by default. So, players just need to head to the location and participate in Gears and Gambits. As this will be the first time that players will participate in Gears and Gambits, Chadley will explain how the mini-game works.
For Gears and Gambits 1, use the loadout made by Chadley. Remember, the goal is to take down the big enemy in the arena.
Gears and Gambits 2 Location
Gears and Gambits 2 can be reached by gliding across Range 24. Make sure that you have obtained the Gongaga Region Chocobo; otherwise, you won't be able to progress further. The Chocobo can be obtained by completing Bonds of Trust side quest.
When it comes to completing Gears and Gambits 2, players don't need to make any changes to their strategy in the first challenge. Use Chadley's loadout, and you should be good to go.
Gears and Gambits 3 Location
Gears and Gambits 3 is located near Activation Intel 4. This time, players will have to change their approach and switch the loadout.
After adding more gambits and actions, players should try to have at least one lane filled with three robots. This will expedite the process of taking down enemies. If there are pawns being spawned in other lanes, summon a robot that they are weak against. Once the lane is empty, deploy robots that are strong against King Flan. With this strategy, the boss will go down in no time.
Gears and Gambits 4 Location
Gears and Gambits 4 can be accessed by using Gliding Range 21. This will take players to the elevator, which leads to Gears and Gambits 4.
Before starting the mini-game, make sure that Cloud is all healed up.
The loadout for Gears and Gambits 4 is different from the rest. Players will need to make full use of the Advanced Action Condition, which will increase their damage output. The rest of the strategy is the same; keep hitting King Flan repeatedly until you clear the challenge. The video above shows how players can clear Gears and Gambits 4 effortlessly.
How To Beat The Eccentric Swordsman In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
After beating King Flan, players will be taken to another place where they will have to fight the Eccentric Swordsman. He is weak to fire, so use it to your advantage. In order to pressure him, players need to perfectly block or evade his attacks. When he is staggered, unleash the strongest attacks to deal massive damage to him. Once he is beaten, players will obtain the Cosmo Canyon Protorelic.
