==Battle==
Beck and his Badasses are slightly more powerful versions of the regular Bandit. They charge at the player with their various melee weapons, and are able to steal gil, although this will be recovered when they're defeated. Bandits can lay traps around the battlefield that stun characters who touch them for 10 seconds, leaving them vulnerable. Despite these various tools, bandits are frail enemies that can be quickly staggered with magic attacks.
Much like most of the human enemies, they are weak to .
===Strategy===
Area of effect abilities can easily dispatch them. Cloud's Triple Slash works well and can easily pressure all three Badasses at once. Due to their minimal , paired with is potent against groups of them; using and/or Whistlewind Scarf lets the player start the battle with ATB already filled to launch with a magnified spell. Cloud can take the thieves' focus so Aerith can destroy them from a distance, while paying attention to their stun traps.
On the colosseum, magnified can easily dispose of the three Badasses and the other Corneo Lackeys fighting alongside them. Aerith can be equipped with and Fire to constantly launch spells while Cloud spams Triple Slash.
For "The Price of Thievery" odd job the same tactics apply, but it is important to pay extra care to not step on the stun traps, since Cloud will have no back-up without Aerith, making him vulnerable to damage. It is best to defeat Beck, Burke, and Butch first with magnified s, and then focus on the Grungy Bandit.
===Hard Mode===
On the hard difficulty, the battles are not significantly harder than in a normal playthrough, but it is crucial to save or restore MP. Aerith can use Soul Drain offensively, and any spells she uses should be on materia paired with . It is best to avoid healing during the colosseum and instead use the bench in the dressing room between matches to restore health. If not directly controlled, Cloud can use to protect Aerith, and she can equip First Strike and/or Whistlewind Scarf to open matches with Arcane Ward and a powerful spell.
For the "Price of Thievery", fire materia is ideal with to save MP. Cloud can also equip and and remain in Punisher Mode and simply guard the entire time, after casting , to counterattack Beck, Burke, and Butch while dodge-rolling (remaining in Punisher Mode if Parry materia is equipped) to avoid the Grungy Bandit. Counterstance can be used in-between.
