Commit yourself to perfect block and dodge.
Cloud have 5% Limit Boost from Block and Stagger folio skills, after all.

Rufus role technically same as Remake, punishing button masher.

Player that easily pass him will be those who actually checked mechanics;
Some players managed to no damage run abusing perfect block + HP-MP Swap (so limit gauge speed dramatically increase, allowing back-to-back limit, similar to OG).

I expect same things will happen for his fight in last installment.
