Highwind (Final Fantasy VII ability)

Highwind is Cid's ultimate Limit in Final Fantasy VII. During the attack, Cid drop eighteen missiles using the Highwind airship on random enemies, doing 11⁄16 times normal damage. It is one of the most damaging abilities the player can use.
==Obtained==
As a level 4 Limit, Highwind is learned from a manual after Cid has learned his other Limit Breaks. The manual is found inside the optional dungeon Sunken Gelnika, discoverable with the submarine. The chest containing the manual is on the left of the hall after entering, past the room where the optional bosses Turks:Reno and Turks:Rude are fought.
==Use==
Highwind and Barret's Angermax are tied for the most hits by a single ability or spell, making them potentially the strongest attacks in the game if they can reach the 9999 damage cap. It is thus a great ability to use on tough opponents, like bosses, or on the Battle Square. It is a good Limit against Emerald Weapon to attack both the "eyes" and the main body, and is also great to use against the final bosses.
==Etymology==
The ability is named after the airship Highwind, which itself appears named after Cid himself, as Highwind is his surname. "Highwind" is a recurring name in the Final Fantasy series for a Dragoon-type character.
