FFVII Remake Intergrade Walkthrough #16 – Chapter 9 Part 2: Hell House Boss Fight & Wall Market

Welcome to Episode 16 of my *Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade Walkthrough!* We're continuing **Chapter 9: The Town That Never Sleeps**, as Cloud and Aerith explore the colorful and chaotic streets of Wall Market! Our goal is to find Tifa and gain access to Don Corneo's mansion. But first, we'll need the approval of Wall Market's three influential figures: Chocobo Sam, Madam M and Andrea Rhodea. And to impress them, Cloud and Aerith will have to survive the Corneo Colosseum, culminating in one of the toughest boss fights so far: *HELL HOUSE!* 🏙️ *EXPLORING WALL MARKET* We begin by exploring Wall Market and collecting several useful items: 🎵 Music Disc #8 🎵 Music Disc #17 🎵 Music Disc #29 ⚔️ Hardedge — a powerful new weapon for Cloud! We also visit Don Corneo's mansion, where we learn that getting an audience with the Don requires the approval of Wall Market's influential trio. 🎲 *CHOC OBO SAM, MADAM M & ANDREA RHODEA* Chocobo Sam challenges Cloud to a game of heads or tails, but the coin is rigged! Madam M offers Cloud a massage before agreeing to help. Andrea Rhodea is unavailable, but we can earn his attention by proving ourselves in the Corneo Colosseum! ⚔️ *CORNEO COLOSSEUM – FIRST THREE ROUNDS* Cloud and Aerith enter the arena for a series of increasingly difficult battles. *Round 1:* Beastmaster and 2 Bloodhounds *Round 2:* 3 Bandits and 5 Corneo's Minions *Round 3:* Sweeper and Cutter These encounters are relatively manageable with the right equipment and materia. 💡 Remember to use the bench between rounds to restore your HP and MP before the next battle! 🏠 *HELL HOUSE BOSS FIGHT – STRATEGY GUIDE* The fourth round introduces Hell House, easily one of the most challenging bosses we've encountered so far! This fight requires careful preparation, elemental magic, ATB management and patience. *RECOMMENDED MATERIA SETUP* 🌸 Aerith — Offensive Magic Fire Ice Lightning Wind Arcane Ward for double-casting spells ⚔️ Cloud — Support and Defense Healing Barrier Poison *PHASE 1 – ELEMENTAL WEAKNESSES* Hell House doesn't have a permanent elemental weakness. Instead, its weakness changes depending on the color of its windows! 🔴 Red windows → Weak to ICE ⚪ White windows → Weak to FIRE 🔵 Blue windows → Weak to WIND 🟢 Green windows → Weak to LIGHTNING Use Assess to understand the boss's mechanics. 💡 *My Strategy:* Start by casting Bio or Biora to poison Hell House and gradually drain its HP. Place Aerith's Arcane Ward near the center of the arena. Build Aerith's ATB and use second-level elemental spells such as Fira, Blizzara, Thundara and Aerora. Match the spell to Hell House's current weakness to Pressure it and build Stagger. Keep Cloud focused on healing, defensive magic and survival. *PHASE 2 – GOD MODE* Hell House eventually activates God Mode, dramatically reducing incoming damage. This is where the battle becomes particularly difficult! 💡 *My Strategy:* Keep Poison active so Hell House continues losing HP. Don't waste valuable MP attacking while God Mode is active. Use this opportunity to rebuild ATB, heal and prepare your next spells. Watch carefully for Hell House to deactivate God Mode. When its windows reveal an elemental weakness, immediately cast the appropriate spell! ⚠️ *IMPORTANT:* The vulnerability window can be very short. Don't wait for the perfect opportunity or a fully charged ATB gauge if you already have enough to cast the correct spell. Exploiting these brief openings will Pressure Hell House and help you build its Stagger gauge. *THE KEY TO VICTORY* Hell House is a battle of patience and preparation. Maintain Poison, conserve MP, manage your ATB and take advantage of every elemental vulnerability! It took me several practice attempts to understand this fight, but once its mechanics become clear, Hell House becomes much more manageable. 🎮 *ABOUT THIS WALKTHROUGH* This Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade walkthrough focuses on story progression, important collectibles, weapons, materia, side quests and practical combat strategies.
