I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

So when I unlocked the fight with Leviathan at the start of Chapter 13, he straight one shot me through blocks from full health with his big AoE hit all attack (Tidal Wave?). I am in chapter 14 now, which I assume is when you're really supposed to fighting him based on that Chapter 13 experience. Is there a recommended set of weapons, gear, or materia to fight him, beyond having lightning and healing materia, of course?

If you just want the summon materia, there is no shame in temporarily lowering the difficulty to Easy in order to chump him. Link lightning+elemental to both Cloud and Barret's weapons, use a spell to pressure him and then unload focused thrust/shot to pretty much immediately stagger him. Switch to Tifa and dump a few triangle chains to boost the stagger damage % and then go to town. He dies in about two cycles of that and you don't even have to heal once.

Wait, am I supposed to have two Elemental materia? I only found one while adventuring with Aerith.

I am pretty certain I missed some things in my first, blind run.

I wish all Materia of a type would level up in unison, or there was some way to upgrade them so the ones I haven't used previously weren't worthless. The weapons do this so I don't get why Materia doesn't.

Same. Materia level up wicked slow. I think it took ten chapters to max one materia I had since the start of the game.
