Jenova DEATH is a boss in Final Fantasy VII and the third form of Jenova. The location of this battle is in the Whirlwind Maze on your chase after Sephiroth.

[edit] Strategy

This is the hardest of the three Jenova Life Cycle enemies, but there is one more Jenova, the Jenova SYNTHESIS, which is found later in the game. A good strategy to use when fighting Jenova DEATH is to equip your entire party with any accessories that make your characters immune to Silence, and then use your strongest attacks and magic. However, if you can beat it with simply physical attacks, don't worry about equipping silence-immunity accessories (use something that increases your strength or defense instead). After this battle you receive the Black Materia again.

An alternative strategy would be to equip tons of Fire resistant or draining equipment and attack Jenova physically with weapons. As all of her damaging attacks are Fire elemental, equipping a Fire Ring to one of your characters to absorb Fire attacks makes the battle impossible to lose.
