The Hundred Gunner is a boss in Final Fantasy VII. Barret Wallace, Aeris Gainsborough and Red XIII encounter it in the Shinra Building. Instead of the boss theme, the regular battle theme plays during the battle.

StrategyEdit

Barret is the only party member who can reach Hundred Gunner with normal attacks. Aeris and Red XIII must use Limit Breaks or magic. The player should have them cast Bolt as much as possible, as Hundred Gunner is weak against Lightning.

Hundred Gunner starts in a form where it only uses Aux Artillery and the more powerful Hidden Artillery. After falling below 1066 HP, its guns fold back and it instead uses Main Artillery, which hits the whole party. When its HP is reduced to 533, Hundred Gunner changes into its final form, where it uses its most powerful attack, the Wave Artillery. Wave Artillery is used after its Sensor Cannon is fully charged.

After Hundred Gunner is destroyed, the player moves on directly to the battle with Heli Gunner without yet gaining EXP, AP or gil, which are obtained after the battle with Heli Gunner.
