How to Build Barret in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Similar toTifa, Barret is primarily a physical damage dealer with a ton of HP. He is basically a walking tank, but he is not very good as a spell caster. However, that doesn’t matter if you may gun down your enemies within seconds.
The best weapon for Barret is Battle Cry, which can be found in the Corridor of Catastrophe at the Temple of the Ancients. Its Weapon Ability, Turbulent Spirit, can significantly boost your ATB charge rate for a limited time, but it can only be used once per battle.

If you prefer to use him as a tank, you can equip Barrage Blaster to get Lifesaver. This ability lets you temporarily increase your HP and take damage intended for other party members.
For Weapon Skills, I recommend equipping Gatling Gun to enhance Barret’s Overcharge and Barrage Blaster to boost his physical DEF. Another viable option is Calamitous Bazooka, which can increase his CRIT Rate and DMG.

I recommend equipping Valkyrian Bangle on Barret since it has 64 points for Physical DEF and six Materia slots. If you prefer more Magic DEF, you can select Cetran Bracer, which has eight Materia slots and offers 42 points for Physical and Magic DEF.
The best Accessory for Barret is Speed Demon Keychain, which you can obtain by beating Roche atJunon. This item can slightly replenish his ATB gauge after using a weapon ability. Another great option is Enhanced Draconic Ring, which increases his max HP by five percent and boosts his limit gauge charge rate when successfully blocking an attack.
