Premium Heart Premium Heart is the ultimate knuckles weapon originating in " Final Fantasy VII " as a weapon for Tifa Lockhart .

Premium Heart is the ultimate weapon for Tifa and can be obtained by examining a machine in the abandoned building that has a sign " ITEM " outside in Wall Market . It can be obtained after the player has found the Key to Sector 5 buried in Bone Village after " Highwind " is available . It has 99 points in Attack Power , 112 % of Attack Accuracy , provides 32 points in Magic , has eight Materia slots linked in pair , and can be sold for 1 gil . It deals more damage the fuller Tifa ' s Limit meter is . Because of this its damage can be volatile , and Tifa ' s other weapons , such as the Godhand with its perfect hit rate , can be considered superior . The damage that is dealt by Premium Heart is calculated as follows : The maximum Limit Bar Units is 255 regardless of Limit level ( the Limit level simply adjusts the rate at which the bar fills ) . When the bar is full , the weapon does roughly 1 - 4x of its normal damage depending on the Limit level , and would do 1 / 16 of that damage when the Limit bar is empty . Unlike most weapon damage modifiers , this modifier doesn ' t solely adjust the weapon ' s attack power , but the character ' s final attack power , which includes Tifa ' s Strength and weapon attack bonus . There may be a bug with the formula as the way it is written , the " 1 " value has almost no effect . If the formula was instead : formula _ 2 , the weapon would do 1x its normal damage when the Limit bar is empty and up to 5x damage with a full level 4 Limit gauge . The actual formula causes Tifa to do less than normal damage unless her Limit bar is at least 1 / 4th full at Limit level 4 , which many players consider worse than a non - ultimate weapon .
