All Alexander Summon Crystal Locations in Corel

We always recommend finding the summon crystals before taking on the summon for a region. This makes the boss fight much easier, and it fills out your intel for the region. You can use our maps to locate all three of the Alexander sites in Corel, plus our brief descriptions of each location:

  • Alexander Divine Intel #1: Look for a small cave entrance in the midst of the water, just northeast of the marked location.
  • Divine Intel #2: Just north of this location are a couple of blue banners you can grapple across using a crane to reach the cave where this is.
  • Divine Intel #3: On the north side of this sanctuary, there is a blue banner hanging you can grapple to to swing across and get your hands on the yellow climbing parts of the side of the mountain, which will lead you here.

Tips for How to Beat Alexander in FFVII Rebirth

The FFVII Rebirth Alexander boss fight is so much more manageable with the three summon crystals. You can go with any team you want, but I went with Cloud, Tifa (for staggering), and Aerith for healing. It has a lot of AOE attacks, but your goal should be to take out its arms first.

Do this, and it nullifies a lot of its moves. In addition, this is a level sync boss battle, so you can, technically, do this at any level you are currently at, though the higher, the better.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is available right now exclusively for PS5.
