Monster Bio Pt.1

The first one that players will come across requires you to assess two enemy types. You will get the Auto-Cure materia for completing this task. Players will be able to achieve this entry of the Battle Intel Reports by using the Assess Materia to scan enemies during a battle, which can be found in the Materia and Equipment section of the main menu.

Magic Elements Pt. 1

Players will need to hit enemies vulnerable to fire, ice, or lighting using the magic attribute they are weakest against when it comes to the three required ones to complete this one. Your reward will be a Wind Materia. The Assess Materia can be sued for this one as well to see which magic type your enemy is weakest against when fighting.

The Stagger Effect Pt. 1

This particular entry of the Battle Intel Reports asks players to use unique abilities on staggered enemies and to charge the ATB gauge a total of 10 times. A reward of a First Strike Materia will be given to you upon completion of this task. Make sure to use the triangle button, as the unique abilities performed by this input for each character are what is required for you to fill the ATB Gauge correctly.
