Shademp | FFVIIR Demo - Maxing out Potions, faster method @Shademp | Uploaded March 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
The Retry-from-Last-Battle (RfLB) box respawning method. Selecting RfLB will respawn all the shinra boxes and you can keep re-acquiring the loot until you're satisifed.
I was able to go from 0 Potions to 99 in 70 minutes, compared to the roughly 2 hours it took me with the old method to go from 20 Potions to 99. A big helper is that in each cycle you are now destroying eight boxes with potential good rewards (one of the boxes always rewards an MP mako shard), compared to the four boxes in the previous method.
The even faster area to grind for Potions and Moogle Medals with the RfLB method would probably be when you're escaping from the reactor, right before facing the first Shock Trooper. But if you're aiming for an early grind, this area before the cut fence is likely the fastest.
