Punch (element)

Punch in Final Fantasy VII is an attribute usually associated with piercing and thrusting attacks, such as Cid Highwind's Limit Breaks and weapons. It is possible to reduce damage from this by having a character with the Ziedrich armor, by using the Enemy Skill Dragon Force, or via the item Hero Drink.
