FF7 - Casual Stinger Skip @XeroKynos

Uploaded February 2016 | Updated September 2026, 3 days ago

This happened during my last FF7 All Bosses Speedrun. I skipped the second Stinger battle by pure accident. Normally, when you hit the spiderweb, a mandatory Stinger Battle occurs. However, if you get a random battle at the same time as you hit the spiderweb, both battles cancel each other out and no battle occurs. To put this into perspective, you normally need to utterly meticulously plan out a Stinger Skip as getting a random battle just at the exact same spot on which Cloud steps into the spiderweb is extremely unlikely by pure accident, at least I used to think so... I don't recall having seen a "casual Stinger Skip" in a speedrun before.

Also, after I skipped the second Stinger Battle, I triggered the Repeating Boss Glitch on Gi Nattak, which makes that boss battle occur twice in succession, because I skipped a random battle, namely the one that canceled out the second Stinger battle, just before the Boss Battle.

$FF7 True Necrosis Mod Playthrough Part #03 Watch live at http://www.twitch.tv/xerokynos Download the True Necrosis Mod: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=17008.0 This is a playthrough of the only very recently released True Necrosis Mod (v0.2) for the PC version of Final Fantasy VII. Like the NewThreat Mod that I have played through on several occasions before, the True Necrosis Mod was created by SegaChief. The premise of the True Necrosis Mod is that you cannot heal throughout the entire game. Items, Magic, Limit Breaks, Inns, or whatever else you have in mind, it will not restore any character’s HP or MP or revive the dead. To offset the characters’ comparatively low starting HP and MP though, each character will join you with 9,999HP and 999MP (minus some HP penalties due to equipped Materia (e.g. Cloud starts with 9,600 HP)). So, in essence, this mod is challenging you to beat the game with only 10K HP and 1K MP on each character. Additionally, all sources have been made unusable, making it impossible to max stats. Also, due to how Limit Breaks work, since you need to take damage equivalent to a certain fraction of your maximum HP to fill your Limit Break bar, it is basically impossible to use Limit Breaks more than once or twice per character throughout the game and entirely impossible to learn Level 4 or 1-2, 2-2 or 3-2 Limit Breaks. In this playthrough, I will find out if it is even possible to finish the game under the effects of the mod as it came out just a few days ago, no one else seems to have tried it yet and SegaChief does not believe in testing his own creations. Personally, I am quite confident that beating the game will be possible in the True Necrosis Mod. What I am unsure about, however, is how much of the optional battles, Ruby and Emerald Weapon to be precise, will be feasible. Regardless, I am going to try to defeat everything there is to defeat. I hope you will enjoy this mod as much as I am.
