Mission 3-4-1: Regain Shinra’s Materia¶
Mission 3-4-1 Boss.
Complete M3-3-6 to start this mission. This mission only has a small map containing just one chest which contains an 
Elixir. Starting the mission in the east, hug the left wall until you find the chest, then head to the boss. This battle will have three enemies, two Shooter Machines, and one Belzecue. Take out the Belzecue first as it can instantly kill you with its 
Death Fangs attack.
The Shooter Machines can prove problematic if you can’t take them down quickly as they’ll constantly barrage you with bullets which makes you flinch. Try to get behind them to avoid their attacks, and inflict Critical hits of your own. As always, 
Costly Punch is king, and 
Aerial Drain is great for replenishing your health.
Mission 3-4-2: Powered-Up Copies¶
Mission 3-4-2 Boss.
Complete M3-4-1 to start this mission. Another small map, that has G Prowlers, Metal Saucer IIIs, and Shooter Machine in its random encounters. There are only two chests to find here which contain a 
Hyper Wrist accessory, and 
Dark Matter. Starting in the north, follow the path south, and turn east at the intersection for the first chest.
Follow the path south then west until you reach another intersection. Take the north path for the final chest at the back of the room then make your way to the far west room for the boss. This battle will consist of four G Prowlers. Although they do attack quickly, and the damage they deal can add up, a couple of Aerial 
Drains should be enough to take them down.
3-4-3: Reinforced Copies¶
Mission 3-4-3 Boss.
Complete M3-4-2 to start this mission. This small map only has two chests to open which contain a 
Tri-Fire, and an 
Elemental Strike Materia. Starting in the east, follow the path west then north, and the first chest will be on your left. After opening the chest, take the west path at the intersection and follow it until the end for the final chest. Make your way back to the intersection, and head north then west until you can go south at the last intersection. At the end of this path will be the boss. Throughout the map, you’ll get into encounters with the following enemies: G Prowler, Metal Saucer III, and a Spitfire. The boss battle will consist of one G General, and a Spitfire.
This can be a difficult battle if you’re not properly prepared. The G General will keep buffing itself with Defense every time it runs out, and then it’ll either cast Blitz (
Tri-Thundaga type spell) or it’ll repeatedly stun you with its Gunblade attack. This gives the Spitfire enough time to deal significant damage with its Spin attack. To make the battle more manageable, equip an anti-stun accessory, and a high-tier 
Thunder Spell. The Stun accessory will negate the Gunblade attacks Stun, and the Thunder Spell will make short work out of the Spitfire. With just the G General left, chip away at its health until you defeat it. Once again, Costly Punch will cut the time down fighting it significantly. Be aware that the G General can also cast 
Curaga.
3-4-4: Return to Midgar¶
Mission 3-4-4 Boss.
Unlocked by completing M3-4-3. This mission will only have two chests, and these will contain an 
X-Potion and a 
Vital Slash Materia. Starting the mission in the center of the map head south to find the first chest at the back of the small room. Now head east then north, and follow it until you get three-quarters of the way into the long room. To your left will be the final chest of the area before you can continue north to where the boss will be. While you’re navigating this map expect to see the following enemies during your encounters: G Prowler, Hell Slasher, and Metal Saucer III.
The boss battle will be against a G Guardian who’ll be accompanied by a G General. Take out the G General first as it can heal with Curaga as well as stun you with Gunblade. The G Guardian has a few tricks up its sleeves with the first being Lifeshaver, This attack will hit you for a lot of damage while also healing the boss for the same amount. Make sure you don’t get hit by this. Its second dangerous attack is Death Scythe which works similarly to Lifeshaver. Finally, it has an Ability Charge attack called Tempest which will also deal significant damage if left alone.
3-4-5: Destroy the Copy Factory¶
Mission 3-4-5 Boss.
Unlocked by completing M3-4-4. This map isn’t the biggest, and you can cut the time spent on it rather short by just going for the boss who is just to the north of the intersection. If you want the chests of which there are two that contain a Dark Matter, and a Mythril, you’ll need to head south at the intersection. The first chest can be found on the corner as you’re heading west, and the last chest will be at the end of the path on the bridge.
Either way, the enemies you’ll face along the way will be G Centurion, Hell Slasher, and Hellhound with both the Hell enemies capable of inflicting death. The boss will be the G Guardian again, but this time it’ll be accompanied by a few G Centurions. Take out the G Centurions first as they don’t have a lot of health then defeat the G Guardian the same way you conquered the previous one…which was most likely Costly Punch.
3-4-6: Strongest Copies Yet¶
Mission 3-4-6 Boss.
The final mission of the sub-category will be unlocked when you complete M3-4-5. Although the map itself isn’t the largest, five chests in this mission will reward you with the following items: Elixir, 
Lunar Harp, 
Sea Chocobo Armlet, 
Phoenix Down, and a 
Zeio Nut. Starting the mission in the southwest corner, follow the northern path, and open the first chest to your right on the way. Continue north until you reach the intersection, and choose to go west for the second chest.
Make your way back to the intersection, and head east where the third chest will be on your left. Finally, follow the path east, south then east again to find the final two chests in the southwest corner. Head back to the intersection and go west where you’ll find the boss. Throughout the map expect to fight against the following enemies: G Centurion, G Guardian, and Hellhounds. The final battle will be against a singular G Purgatorio.
They can deal plenty of damage with either their multi-hit combo Rip or the fast-casting 
Energy spell. On top of that, it’ll regularly use its Drain attack on you to replenish its health. It doesn’t have any real weaknesses, but it is susceptible to 
Gravity magic, and if you’re lucky enough to see 
Zantetsuken show up in the DMW, it can be insta-killed. Other than that, Costly Punch away!
