R E V I S I O N H I S T O R Y ========================================================================= VERSION 1.3 (January 1, 1998) I'd like to thank WhisQ for providing me with a totally-revised Monster List--it's arguably one of the biggest and best contributions ever. Other various things have been added and corrected. Barring any new discoveries, this is the last revision of the FAQ. I hope you enjoyed the ride, and I'd like to express my thanks to all the people who were there for me in the beginning, and those of you who were contributing up until the very last update. Everyone who sent something into this FAQ is worthy of praise. Well, that's it! VERSION 1.2 (December 14, 1997) The Monster List has been revised, and more numerous corrections and additions have been made. Hmm...anything left to add? (Be reasonable now!) I've been doing this since February, and I think the FAQ is as good as it's gonna get, right? Well, let me know, otherwise, I suppose this is it. VERSION 1.1 (November 16, 1997) The strategy section for the Ruby and Emerald Weapons has been updated, and of course, there have been more numerous additions and corrections. I'm happy to say that much of the new stuff in this revision is the result of contributions by readers of the FAQ, so thanks, and keep your hints and info. coming! VERSION 1.0 (October 28, 1997) The Walkthrough section has been updated for all three discs. Strategies for fighting the Diamond, Emerald, and Ruby Weapons has also been added, as well as many numerous corrections. Much of the Japanese text has also been converted into English, along with other minor additions. I'm expecting a hundred 'thank-you's' from _all_ the people who e-mailed me day after day about fighting the Weapons.... ^_^; And with that, the FAQ is bumped up to 1.0, since it's now a 'real' FF7 English-text version FAQ. Also (as if you hadn't noticed) the FAQ has been split into two parts. Also, an important note to contributors! Did I e-mail you thanking you for your contribution, but you never saw it added to the FAQ? If so, please e-mail me, as I'm having a hard time finding all the e-mails I wanted to use and who sent them to me. Sorry for my sloppiness; especially those of you who were hoping to see your info. added to v0.3 but had to wait until now. It's just that there are a lot of contributions and I have to weed out the usable ones and then add them to the FAQ. VERSION 0.3 (October 6, 1997) A minor update to the Walkthrough section, and more general corrections throughout the FAQ. Lots of GameShark codes this time, however, I only made one of them, the 'Battle Select', the rest were submitted and contributed by Ignacio DeLucas, Jeff Wong, and Charles Mac Donald. Mr. DeLucas gets big props for correcting my GS codes and submitting ones of his own (as I don't like making them, and he seems to be very good at coming up with them!! ^_^;) I've replaced the 'Run from any battle' trick with the 'Exchange Gil for GP' trick as the former cheat doesn't work in the US version. Also, several sections have been rewritten (since I had to rewrite them for another FAQ anyway). Also, section 7.9 (Main Menu) has been deleted, since the Main Menu is in English (obviously), and so this section is defunct and only adds more wasted text to the FAQ (which is far too big as is!) On a sad note, the 'Idiot List' has returned. Hey, I call it as I see it--and I'm really serious about people not messsing with my work. VERSION 0.2 (September 14, 1997) More corrections made and more info. added. Also included the 'Gain Lots of Experience Points', 'Super Select', and 'No Time Limit - Any Character' GameShark codes. VERSION 0.1 (September 7, 1997) Basic information. Much of this FAQ is based on my earlier Japanese FF7 FAQ. Created GameShark codes 'Item Select', 'Materia Select' and 'Character Select' have been included. If the FAQ seems a bit sloppy right now, well, it is based on the Japanese FAQ so it'll take a revision or two to get everything into shape, as this is a big file :) Also, my spell-checker and 'find/replace' options went a little crazy, so if you spot any strange mistakes, please let me know! ^_^; Began construction of VERSION 0.0 on August 18th, 1997 ========================================================================= 2 . I N T R O D U C T I O N ========================================================================= If this is your first time playing FF7, then trust me, you'll enjoy it. If you were around back when I was working on the Japanese FF7 FAQ, then I'd like to say, "Welcome back!" Square has a lot in store for us gamers and this version of FF7 is by far the best, in my opinion. This FAQ is split into two parts: "Walkthrough and Basic Information", which contains a step-by-step 3-disc walkthrough and info. on playing the game, doing well at the Gold Saucer, etc. The second part, "Extra Information and Lists", includes GameShark codes and has added information on how Materia work, finding the Ultimate Weapons, etc. It also contains many lists of materia, enemy skills, prices in shops, items and equipment, a full monster listing, and so on. For those of you who don't know, there are three versions of FF7. The first one is the original Japanese game. The second is the English-text release you've probably popped into your PlayStation just now. The third version is the pending Japanese re-release, which is just like the one you're playing, but with Japanese text :) If you're looking for a FAQ for the original Japanese version, then please download my Japanese FF7 FAQ from: It's divided into two parts, "The Complete Walkthrough", and "Extra Stuff You Should Know". Since the combined size of both documents stands at 993,611 bytes, I think you'll be able to find just about whatever you're looking for in one part or another. If you want a FAQ for the Japanese re-release, then I suggest you check out that FAQ, too, but refer to this one if you want information on new things added to the game, like the Weapon monster scenarios. And if you want a FAQ for the English-text version of FF7, then you're at the right place, keep reading. Please don't ask me to send you a copy of either FAQ because I don't have the time to send them out to everyone who asks, and secondly, this isn't my e-mail address. However, if you have any suggestions, corrections, questions, or comments, then you can reach me via . Comments are always welcome and I'll be happy to answer any questions I receive either via e-mail or I'll include an answer in the upcoming revision of the FAQ. I won't answer questions if they are already answered in either of the FAQs, so please read whichever document you are using carefully before e-mailing me. Okay, finally, a notice to my would-be editors; those of you who are planning on reformatting the FAQ for Windows WordPad or ClarisWorks or whatever shouldn't go asking me, because I'll say 'no'. Similarily, those of you who want to HTML'ize my FAQ shouldn't bother asking me either. _However_, I have no problem with you reformatting/HTML'izing my FAQ as long as you state somewhere that you did it WITHOUT my permission. And if you're reading a reformatted FAQ or HTML'ized FAQ, please refer all questions to the maintainers of those FAQs and not me. This is because such FAQs are usually hard to keep updated; so the information they have might be from v0.2 for example, when v0.4 is already out. If you can't find the info in one of their FAQs, please check my homepage for the latest FAQ to see if that answers your question. ========================================================================= 8 . S E C R E T S A N D C O D E S ========================================================================= ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 1 g e t t i n g y u f f i e k i s a r a g i ------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can get Yuffie in your party during any disc. If you're in Disc 1 and are riding around in the Buggy, that will work, too. The two places that she appears most often are the forests beyond the Gold Saucer (in the Gongaga Area), and most forests in the Junon Area. After a few battles, you'll fight Yuffie (seems to be a 1 in 15 chance, if you ask me). _________________________________________________________________________ BOSS TIPS: MYSTERY NINJA (her stats. vary) Just attack, really. Yuffie can use all kinds of cool attacks during this time, but not once she joins you! Yuffie's level, HP and MP vary depending on what level your characters are at. _________________________________________________________________________ When the battle ends, you'll be in a plain with Yuffie lying nearby. There's also a Save Point here. However, if you touch the Save Point, then go to your menu screen to save, Yuffie escapes and steals 200 gil! Don't worry, you can meet her again. You'll have to talk to her several times to get her to join. As she and you converse, she'll ask you several questions, and you can reply in two ways. To get her to join, respond like this: Reply: Not interested (talk to her again) Reply: ......petrified Reply: Wait a second! Reply: ......That's right. Reply: ......Let's hurry on. Or in other words, choose the bottom reply, then the top one, then the bottom one, and so on. After that, you can name her, and she'll hook up with Cloud and the rest of the gang. Note that if you choose the top answer for the last question she asks, you can name her, but she'll steal 700 gil from you and run away. You'll have to repeat the whole process if you want to get her in your party. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 2 g e t t i n g v i n c e n t v a l e n t i n e ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The second 'optional' (or hidden) character in the game, Vincent can also join your party during any disc. You'll need the gold key from the safe in Nibelheim's Shinra Mansion (see below if you don't know how to open it). Go down to the pink cavern leading to Sephiroth's library (it's in the Shinra Mansion, the entrance is in the stone wall in the eastern wing). Remember the door to the crypt you couldn't get through? You can now enter it. Stand at the foot of the purple coffin and hit O. The lid will fly off and Vincent will talk to you. To get him to join you, respond to his questions like so: Reply: Talk about Sephiroth. (When the coffin closes, press O again.) Reply: Who are you? Then, try to leave the cavern and he'll join you. Vincent can join you from the first time you reach Nibelheim onwards (but not during Cloud's flashback). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 3 t h e s a f e i n n i b l e h e i m ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The hints are as follows: - When reading the paper, move the cursor down to the blank space and try and choose it. - Examine the area around the bed on the upper floor. Then go out and look in the hallway nearby. - Search the opposite end of the broken piano. - Open the chest in the greenhouse, then examine the chest again for another clue. What most people forget when trying to open the safe is that it's just like a real combination lock...so you have to go in more than one direction when inputting the numbers. Furthermore, unless you're fast enough, you'll run out of time if you try any other combination. The code is: RIGHT TO 36, LEFT TO 10, RIGHT TO 59, RIGHT TO 97 This means that you hold right and scroll through the numbers, then hold left until you reach 10, then hold right for the last two numbers. Don't forget to press O to verify each entry. When the safe opens, a Summon Materia (Odin) pops out, and you are assaulted by a big goon (how'd he fit into that little safe?) _________________________________________________________________________ BOSS TIPS: LOST NUMBER LV: 35 HP: 7000 MP: 300 This boss can be taken out just by attacking and using Limit Breaks. Magic spells (Fire, Ice, Lighting) that are at level 2 are also okay to use. Heal yourself and use Summon Materia (like Choco/Mog) and you'll win in no time. Aside from physical attacks, all this guy can really do is use a Bolt 2 spell on you, but it only does 400-500 points of damage to one character, so it's nothing to worry about. Rarely, he does a double-fisted hammer punch to one character that averages 2200 points of damage, though, so pack in some Phoenix Downs before trying to tackle him. If you blow off his red half (the one that uses magic) his physical attacks become more aggressive, so keep your HP up. Likewise, if his purple half is destroyed first, the Lost Number will use more mid-level spells, like Quake 2, against your party. It is possible to kill this boss without either part of it dying (by stunning it using the 'Choco/Mog' spell). _________________________________________________________________________ Not only do you get an item from the boss once you beat it (it's the manual for Red 13's Level 4 Limit Break, the Cosmo Memory), but there's also a gold key in the safe that you can grab (Key to the Basement). Don't forget to take the Red Materia! Did the code still not work? Remember, the safe's lock is LIKE A REAL COMBINATION LOCK. So, when you're turning to 36, you can either land on it or creep up to it, but you can't hit 37 and go back. This applies to the rest of the digits, too; you can't go farther than the number you want. If you do (i.e. you go to 09 when trying to get to 10), you'll have to start all over again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 4 t h e s l e e p i n g m a n ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Get so many wins by fighting battles. To see how many wins you have, get in the Highwind or ride a Green, Blue, Black, or Gold Chocobo ever so slightly south and a little ways to the east of Midgar City, where you'll find a cave surrounded by mountains with a river nearby. If you're in Disc 1, drive the Buggy into Costa Del Sol, which allows you to take it with you back to Junon if you board the cargo ship. You can then drive it over the ford to the cave area. Inside the cave is a sleeping fellow who (usually) tells you how many wins you've gotten so far. - If your last two digits are odd, he'll give you Mythril. - If your last two digits are even, he'll give you an item (usually a Bolt Ring or Ice Ring). When you have the correct number of victories, talk to the sleeping man. He'll toss and turn, then give you an item (Mythril). Next, go to the house on the penninsula near the Gold Saucer (you should recognize it since it's full of weapons inside). Talk to the man in the house, and when he gives you a choice, pick the top option. You'll lose the Mythril, but you now have the choice of opening the long wooden chest by the bed to get a Gold Armlet, or examining the metal lid on the upper floor at the end of the walkway to get the manual for Aeris's Level 4 Limit Break. You can keep earning more Mythril from the sleeping man as long as you give the piece you have to the weaponsmith near the Gold Saucer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 5 p i a n o t r i c k ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go to Nibelheim during Disc 2 or 3, with Tifa in your party. Nibelheim is the the town by the pointed mountains on the Western Continent. Enter Tifa's house (the second building on the right side) and head upstairs to where her piano is. Choose the bottom option, then the bottom option again to play it (you can't use the top option if you want the manual). Then, press: X, S, T, L1+T, L1+S, X, S, T, L1+X, O, X, S, X* You should find 1 gil betweent the piano keys. Play the piano again, and you'll find an Elemental materia. On your third play, Tifa will reach for the music sheets and find a letter addressed to her from her mentor, Zangan. She'll also find the Limit Break manual that he left for her. * Note that you can also play the 'Highwind' them by pressing: D, L, U, L1+T, L1+S, D, L, U, L1+X, R, D, L, D Or, you can use a combination of buttons and directions. Playing the music this way doesn't seem to get you anything, though. Also, for the record, I _have_ gotten Tifa's manual without her in my party, and without find 1 gil _or_ the materia, but I don't know what it is that I did aside from play the Highwind theme over and over. Please note that the piano-playing results are usually very random (you may get 1 gil twice, or get nothing at all), so don't expect great results on the first play. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 6 k e y t o m i d g a r c i t y ( s e c t o r 5 k e y ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- First talk to the man standing by the doors back at Midgar City. He won't appear until after you've gotten the Highwind and rescued Cloud from Mideel Village. Talk to him, then return to the Bone Village on the Northern Continent. Chat with the man by the door and pick the first option, then the second or third option. While you could place diggers and hunt for the Key yourself, if you want to cheat, go over to the destroyed plane atop the dinosaur's skull. See the one excavator near the bottom of the screen? Near him is a tiny piece of metal sticking outwards (the nose of the ruined plane); position yourself underneath it and press up so that your character is looking forward, then dig. You can use the Key to enter the locked gates near Area 7 and look around Midgar City. If you go into the church where you met Aeris, you can see her bending over the flowers; she'll flicker and disappear after a second (in the Japanese version; in the US version she appears for a brief second and vanishes). There's not a lot to do here, but if you go back to the Wall Market and go to the 'ITEM' building with the machine gun inside it, you can get Tifa's Ultimate Weapon by examining the computer before the gun fires upon you (you don't need Tifa to get the item). Also, remember the man in the gun shop that you bought the Batteries from to reach the Shinra Building back in Disc 1? The man in the left side of the 'Machine & Gun' shop will sell you an accessory (Sneak Glove) for 129,000 gil this time around. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 7 t u r t l e s ' p a r a d i s e f l y e r s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are six of these flyers scattered throughout the world. You can find them in the following locations: Flyer No. 1: Midgar City...the town next to Aeris' house. Go to the second floor of the southeastern building and look at the papers taped to the wall by the stairwell. Flyer No. 2: Shinra HQ...on the first floor, check out the board with the papers on it near the elevators. The only time you can read this flyer is at the beginning of the game or when you raid Midgar in Disc 2. Flyer No. 3: Gold Saucer...go to the Ghost Square and enter the hotel. Read the sign that says 'SHOP' next to the shop entrance. Flyer No. 4: Cosmo Canyon...check the left wood post of the Tigerlily Arms Shop. Flyer No. 5: Cosmo Canyon...the gold paper by the door on the second floor of the inn (the entrance is behind some hanging cloth near the bonfire). Flyer No. 6: Wutai...the bottom floor of Yuffie's house; it's the wall scroll to the right of the doorway. You can't get there unless you've done the sub-quest (refer to the 'Bonus Areas' section). You don't have to find the flyers (they look like pieces of paper) in order. Whenever you have read all six of them, go to the restaurant in Wutai (the large building in the southwestern corner of town). Talk to the barkeep and you'll get a Power Source, Guard Source, Magic Source, Mind Source, Speed Source, Luck Source, and a Megalixir. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 8 a l l 7 f e v e r ------------------------------------------------------------------------- (called 'Lucky Sevens (?)' in the US version). As easy as this trick sounds, it's harder to perform than you might think. One of your characters has to have a current HP of 7777. This can be done by getting injured, equipping materia, or raising levels. When that particular character enters a battle, the message Lucky Sevens will appear. It will show up every time the 'fevered' character attacks, too. During this time, the person affected by the 'Lucky Sevens' will make one _normal_ attack against each enemy when their Time Bar is filled, even if you have materia such as Slash-All or Mega All equipped. However, assuming they don't miss, that person will always strike for 7777 damage, even if an enemy has special defenses. Furthermore, that person behaves as if he/she was berserked (i.e. you can't select commands for them since they will do nothing but attack), and can take no other action (even if you're wearing a Counter Attack materia). They can still lose HP or be affected by enemy abilities/magic/etc. There are two major drawbacks to this trick; your current HP drops to 1 point after the battle (it can be healed by normal means), and you can't repeat the trick unless you have 7777 HP exactly. Charles Lee has sent me various methods on getting this all the time: 4 Examples (please read them all): 1. Cloud's HP status at the Status Window, let's say, is: 7177/9038 How do you get 7777 current HP points? That is, how to get 7777/9038? Ans: Use one Potion (HP +100) and one Hi-Potion (HP +500) on Cloud. 7177+100+500=7777 Now if you go into a battle, Cloud will be in "All 7 Fever". 2. Cloud's HP status is: 3577/7397 (Note that the MAXIMUM HP POINTS is now less than 7777.) How can you get the "All 7 Fever" in this example? Ans: Raise your maximum HP by equipping HP Plus materia(s). Suppose after equipping one HP Plus materia, Cloud's HP status becomes: 3577/9038 To get 7777/9038, you can now use 2 Potions (2*100) and 8 Hi-Potions (8*500): 3577+(2*100)+(8*500)=7777 3. HP status is: 7781/9999 How to get HP to be 7777/9999 for YOUR NEXT BATTLE? Let your enemy hit you for a few times. When your current HP is close to and above 6777 (or 5777, 4777, 3777, 2777, 1777, 777, BUT NOT 7777 since you automatically go into "All 7 Fever" mode but you actually WANT TO SAVE IT FOR THE NEXT BATTLE!), cast "Toad" on him so that he will hit you for 1 point damage only. When your current HP reaches 6777 (or 5777, 4777, 3777, 2777, 1777, or 777), kill the enemy immediately. As soon as the battle is over, go to the Status Window and use (Hi-)Potions to add your current HP to 7777. Now when you enter your next battle, you should be able to sneak attack 62 times (which is what the All 7 Fever does) with each of your attack doing 7777 pts of damage. 4. HP status is: 7775/9999 How do you get 7777/9999? Ans: Let your enemies (or allies) hit you until your current HP is close to but above xx77. Suppose after taking some damage, your current HP is now 6285 (close to and above 6277). Quickly cast "Toad" on your enemy transforming him into a frog and let him hit you until your current HP is 6277. Immediately kill him and use 3 Hi-Potions to add your HP to 7777. Note: When one of your characters is in "All 7 Fever", he/she will continuously attack for 62 times. (You can check it by using the trick I described above on Ruby.) When two characters have the "All 7 Fever", they will attack for a total of 63 times. Don't know what happens when all 3 characters have the "All 7 Fever". Only requirement for getting the "All 7 Fever": Maximum HP >= 7777. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 9 f m v v i e w i n g t r i c k ------------------------------------------------------------------------- All you FF7 owners out there should try this! Go to any point in the game with an FMV sequence (such as starting a new game--the part where Cloud runs up to the Mako furnace). Open your PSX and put in another disc. When you continue playing (the game won't crash) the FMV sequence will be replaced with one from the disc! (Using the last example, put in Disc 3 and you'll see the sequence with the stone pillars rising from the center of the last level; it's the same bit you see after killing Jenova Synthesis before fighting Sephiroth for the last time.) What's really weird is that you can keep playing the game with another disc in your system! I beat the whole first part of the game and the CD would load up the various levels! I don't know for sure, but I guess that means that the ENTIRE game is written on each disc (barring the FMV, obviously)! If you want to verify this, try starting up a save file from disc 3 and replace it with, say, the first disc. You can do the submarine/snowboard sequences, or go to any place you couldn't go to in the first disc--and all the data loads up! Going back to the trick, though, you can try this anywhere, and you usually get cool results. For instance, near the end of Disc 2, the Weapon monster rises up from the sea and attacks Midgar City--and gets decapitated by the Mako Cannon. I switched to the first disc before viewing the FMV and saw parts of the intro, and some parts from the FMV during/after Aeris's death! If you're fast, try switching the discs during the opening FMV when you start a new game; with Disc 2 inserted, it showed some more FMV of Aeris (this is when you return with Bugenhagen to the Ancient City). Even stranger is the fact that you can still see text/graphics over the FMV in some cases, such as Cloud and the Avalanche member running offscreen just after the furnace explodes near the start of the first disc, or Cid talking to Cloud on his phone during the part where the Weapon attacks Midgar City (of course, this is over the FMV from the disc you've chosen). And as I mentioned before, you can play normally after the FMV is over, even with the other disc in your PSX! In earlier versions of this FAQ, I said that there was 'hidden' FMV of a silver car rotating around. Several people e-mailed me and informed me that you can normally view this in the Shinra HQ during Disc One. What's interesting, though, is that when I saw this FMV by using the trick above, I had switched Disc One with Disc Three (at the FMV with the bridge collapsing in Cloud's flashback). This means that it's on at least two of the three discs. Why it's there is another story. Also, the scene with the planets in Bugenhagen's observatory (which is only in Disc 1) will also be partially displayed if you switch it with Disc 2 or 3. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 1 0 e x c h a n g e g i l f o r G P / i n f i n i t e g i l ------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you arrive at the Golden Saucer, there will be a man standing near the back of the screen (past the Save Point), who appears there about 1/60th of the time. If you talk to him, he will sell you one GP for 100 gil. You can buy up to 100 GP from him. An easy way to find him is to enter the Saucer and leave, then enter again, but you'd better have a Gold Ticket or plenty of spare gil otherwise! As long as we're talking about money, there are some items that you can buy that have a higher resale value. A prime example is the Sylkis Greens in the Chocobo farm. Buy as many as you can, then sell them all back and you'll end up with more money then you had. This is a great way to buy expensive stuff or always have enough money on hand for the Coin toss command. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 1 1 r a i s i n g c h o c o b o s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This section was based upon a summarized guide written by Nikki. Some information is also taken from a more detailed guide written by Crow; neither of these guides are on the Net anymore (...okay, Lungdemon? Yeah, I won't say anything.... :)) You're going to need a lot of money, patience, and luck if you want to raise chocobos. The payoff is that you can breed chocobos that can fly, swim, climb over mountains and go to places normal vehicles can't reach. Here are some brief instructions. Remember, there is a random element to Chocobo breeding, so it may take a couple of tries to get the kind of Chocobo you desire. Also, be sure to save after correctly completing a step as you'll undoubtedly have to reset a couple of times during the breeding process. - After getting the Highwind in Disc 2, return to the Chocobo Barn. You can purchase stalls from Choco Bill for 10000 gil per stall, and you'll need at least four stalls (you can purchase six total). Remember, after you don't need chocobos any more, you should just kick them out to make room. - Before you can start breeding, though, you need to stock up on supplies. Fly to either Bone Village or the Chocobo Sage's house. If you run around on the grass, you'll eventually fight an enemy called Vrakoladus. Fight that enemy three times, stealing a Carob Nut from it each time (you'll need the Steal materia first). Then, go to the Goblin Island or Round Island and steal a Zeio Nut from the Goblins that live there. Finally, go to the Chocobo Sage's house and purchase 40 Sylkis greens from him. - Equip a Chocobo Lure materia. Fly to the chocobo tracks near the Gold Saucer (by the shore), and capture a chocobo. Press X to dismount from the chocobo, and choose the option to return it to the Chocobo Barn. You need to capture 2 chocobos from here, although you can get the other chocobo later or not get it at all, if you wish. - Now, fly to the chocobo tracks near Mideel. Capture a chocobo here, and send it back to the Chocobo Barn. IMPORTANT NOTE: The gender of a Chocobo is not determined until you return to the Chocobo Barn and name them. Therefore, it is advised that you save your game before naming them. That way, if you don't get the kinds you want (see below), then you can reset and try naming them again and seeing if their gender changed. - Return to the Chocobo Barn and talk to Choco Billy. Name your Chocobos (this will put them in the stalls). Now, go up to your chocobos and examine them by pressing O. You'll want to make sure that you have one male and one female (or two males and one of any gender, if you caught three chocobos). Furthermore, one of them should be the running kind (usually you'll want the females), and the other should be the walking kind (usually, this should be the males). Your third chocobo needs to be a 'runner' type. - So, you have at least one male and female, and one is a walker and the other is a runner, right? If not, you'll have to release the chocobos that aren't the ones you want and go and capture more (or reset, if you heeded the important note). - Choose to mate the chocobos, and tell Choco Billy that you want to feed them a Carob Nut as well. Hopefully, you'll get a colored chocobo the next day! It should be green or blue. If not, you'll have to reset and give it another go. Keep note of your baby chocobo's gender--it's very crucial later on. IMPORTANT NOTE 2: Later on in this process, you can race chocobos at the Gold Saucer (see below). However, if you have trouble getting the correct type of chocobo during these few steps, you can optionally choose to race them. The better your chocobo's race class is, the higher chance you have of getting the needed color type of chocobo. Remember that you don't _have_ to race your chocobos, but the chance of getting a new type of chocobo is very low otherwise. - At this point, waste some time, then mate your unused 'runner' chocobo with the green chocobo. You can repeat the last few steps (get a chocobo from the Gold Saucer, get a chocobo from Mideel, make sure they're both the correct types, and breed them using a Carob Nut). Or, if you got two other chocobos the first time around, you can then breed them together. Your third choice is to use the same pair of chocobos that you just breeded. In that case, you'll have to waste some game time, as chocobos that have just mated can't do it immediately again. - In any case, you'll want to breed your chocobos together and get a blue chocobo, using the steps outlined above. Your blue chocobo MUST be the opposite gender of your green chocobo, or you can't mate them. Feed the blue chick and the green chick 10 Sylkis Greens each. (these next 2 steps are optional) - Get in the Highwind and go to the Gold Saucer via North Corel's ropeway. Go to the Chocobo Square and talk to Ester. Tell her that you want to race using either your green or blue chocobo. The goal here is to keep racing until your chocobo's race level reaches A. To do this, win the races consistently; it will take a couple of tries. To insure winning, just use Automatic Mode for most of the race and hold R1 + R2 to recover lost Stamina while racing, or all four shoulder buttons to run faster. After one chocobo has hit rank A, do the whole racing process again with the other one. - Once your green and blue chocobos are both rank A, return to the Chocobo Barn. Breed the two chocobos together, using your last Carob Nut (refer to the above steps for help). If everything worked out, you'll have a black chocobo. - Fly to the Northern Continent (the snowy one), and look for Chocobo tracks on the western edge of the continent. Land and then capture a chocobo at the tracks. Return to the Chocobo Barn and name it (it should be the opposite gender of your black chocobo, and should be the 'dashing' kind--it runs very fast with it's head down). (this step is optional, but you still have to feed them a Zeio Nut) - Now for the fun part. Feed 10 Sylkis Greens to the black chocobo and the dashing yellow chocobo. Then, go _back_ to the Gold Saucer and race both Chocobos up to race class A again! When they're both at rank A, go back to the Chocobo Barn and tell Choco Billy that you want to mate them, using the Zeio Nut this time around. With a little luck, you'll get the Gold Chocobo! Unlike wild chocobos that you can catch, the ones that you've named are tamer, and if you get off them, they will stay where you left them until you get back on. You can also ride a tame chocobo into the Highwind and transport them around with you on the airship. YELLOW CHOCOBOS can go anywhere you can normally get to on foot. The sole advantage is that a chocobo is a lot quicker than walking. BLUE CHOCOBOS can walk along rivers, but they can't go past waterfalls. They can also walk in shallow water, just like Cid's airplane could. GREEN CHOCOBOS can run over mountains, even the pointed mountains by Nivelheim. They can also dash over _most_ cliffs and drops. BLACK CHOCOBOS can walk along rivers and move around in shallow water. They can also run over mountains and cliffs. Unlike the blue or green chocobos, the black variety can go over any cliff or drop: even walk up or down waterfalls, enter the canyon surrounding the Ancient City, or walk _over_ the ice forest that you have to traverse in Disc 2 after the snowboard scene! GOLD CHOCOBOS can do everything a black chocobo can--they can also walk in the ocean, allowing you to go anywhere you want, even into the desert surrounding the Gold Saucer (just like the Saucer vehicle). Truly the ultimate in transportation! In case you didn't know about it, you can rotate the chocobo you're viewing when using the various options in the Chocobo Farm by holding the R1 or L1 buttons :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 1 2 u n c h a r t e d i s l e s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Head due south from Cosmo Canyon in the Highwind, then go a little to the west. You'll see an island that's part dirt, part grass, with a smaller grassy island nearby. This isle doesn't appear on the Map, but if you land the Highwind on the grassy plain and run around in the dirt long enough, you can fight Sabotenders (better known as Cactrots; those little cactus guys from FF3)! You can't get Rename Cards from them or anything like that, but it's kinda fun fighting them. Actually, the name of this island is 'Cactus Island' so it makes sense to find them here. To get to the second isle, head for the two islands near to each other on the northeastern edge of the map. Then go north (and a little more to the east), and you'll come across an oval-shaped island surrounded by mountains. There's a cave entrance here, but you can't land there in the Highwind. For more about the island, refer to the Bonus Areas part in section 6. The name of this place is 'Round Island'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8 . 1 3 g a m e s h a r k c o d e s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm not much of a code-maker myself, but here are some cheats you might want to try. Remember, you need a Game Shark or a Pro Action Replay for these to work. Some people have reported problems with these codes (such as, these codes don't work with a PAR). FYI, I made these codes using a Game Shark with PAR software (version 1.98), so I really don't know why it wouldn't work on both devices. All of the codes in this FAQ were made by me, unless otherwise stated. If you want to reprint, submit, or display these codes, please give credit where it is due. If you want to submit a code, just tell me the code itself, what it does, and include any glitches/problems with the code. Oh, and please tell me the code's creator if you didn't make it yourself. Finally, the reason why I've made these codes is because I didn't see anything like them beforehand. So don't BS me about making the 'Materia Select' code first or any of that garbage, as I'm not interested. FF7 MASTER CODE 80000000 - 0000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the cheat that lets you use other codes with this game. I don't know if it (and the other codes listed here) will work on every disc, but if a code doesn't, then I'll let you know. CHARACTER SELECT - 3RD POSITION 8009CBDE - FF0x ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Enter this code, but replace the last digit with one of the following: x = 0 - Cloud Strife 1 - Barret Wallace 2 - Tifa Lockheart 3 - Aeris Gainsborough 4 - Red 13 5 - Yuffie Kisaragi 6 - Cait Sith (sometimes, Young Cloud) 7 - Vincent Valentine (sometimes, Sephiroth) 8 - Cid Hiwind 9 - A - B - C - <'Nau Purintingu'> (Now Printing) D - <'Nau Purintingu'> (Now Printing) When you turn on the code, the character in the 3rd position will turn into whatever character you specified. You may want to go into the PHS menu, turn off the code, and put the character in/out of the PHS groups a few times to 'debug' it a bit. When you return to the Main Menu screen, that person will have the portrait/stats. of the desired character. It is HIGHLY recommended that you have the 3rd space EMPTY when you use this code as in some cases, a preexisting character may overlap with the selected one. The result is that, when you enter a battle, that character does not appear, cannot interact, and his/her HP drops steadily until it hits zero. Using this code: Characters all start off at their 'base' level (1). If you use this code to get a character that you don't have at the moment (say picking Aeris while in Disc 2 or 3), they'll have the same stats and abilities as they did when you last had them in your party. If you level them up, change their equipment, etc., then save the game and use the code to replace them with another character and put them back in, any changes you made will be saved, too. Note that if you use this code to get a character you already have (say, if Cid is in the 3rd position and you put in the code for Cid), you'll get multiple copies of the character. This also happens if you have the code on while you try to pull a character in/out of the active group. Copied characters disappear when you exit the PHS menu. This code also has a chance of starting up the 'error checker' feature (see the 'Super Select' code for details). Yes, if you save the game, you save the added characters. The only way to remove them is to use the code to 'select' a new character, or to put them in PHS (inactive party) and then return to your Main Menu. Also note that sticking a 'selected' character in the first position will make Cloud disappear on-screen (you can still use the cursor). Finally, note that if you enter a conversation/event with a character you're not supposed to have (say, Sephiroth outside of the flashback or Aeris after Disc 1), the game may (and probably will) crash. The only exception to this are the 'general' quotes which a character will say automatically, regardless of who he/she is. Specific Character info.: Both Cloud and Aeris become 'permanent' members of either your active party or the inactive party. To remove them, you'll have to stick them in the third position (use Order), and put in a code for one of your normal characters. Sephiroth is still controlled by the computer, although you can take or change his equipment and Materia. As he only has one weapon (Masamune), using the 'Item Select' code to have this item is useless as it's the only weapon he can equip. Although it will act as if he and Young Cloud have Limit Breaks, they don't in actuality (if you look, you'll see that it's Vincent's and Cait's Breaks instead). This code has trouble realizing who is Cait Sith/Young Cloud and who is Vincent/Sephiroth, because of the way the characters' data is stored. As a result, you may not always get the character you want when trying to get either of these characters. The 'Chocobo' and 'Now Printing' are not real characters. They have no weapons, statistics, etc. (if you look, you'll see that they borrow the stats. of another character, usually your leader). If you try to enter a battle with one of them in your party, you get the 'overlap' result described above (as they are not playable). ITEM SELECT 8009CCxx - yzzz ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please take note: As long as you follow the below guidelines (remember to be careful when putting in the two 'location' digits), this code should work. Several people have been complaining that they can't get the code to work--even the people with the same GS and version number as mine (1.98). If you've _carefully_ tried this code and can't get any results, then you may simply not be able to use the code on your game. I have NO IDEA what causes this and I'm sorry I can't offer more help to those with problems concerning this code or the Materia Select code (they both work in the same manner). And yes, saving your game with this code _will_ save the items into memory--you'll still have to be careful that you don't end up with the 'battle' glitch' described below (although it seems as if it's not in the English version). An example code would be 8009CCA8 - 202A for the Ghost Hand item, for those of you who don't understand how the x/y/z entries work. xx = Location where item appears on the Item Select Screen. You can change this number to enter the code multiple times to have multiple items of your choice, but you _must_ use EVEN numbers (i.e. C2, 9A, or 88) or the game may glitch. Also, if this code would put an item over an occupied space and not a blank one, the game may freeze or the item may not appear. Finally, try to keep the location range between 8_ and C_ or the game may crash. y = No. of items; you'll have an infinite amount unless you turn the switch off (usually). The number you enter is converted to hexidecimal form (so what you put in won't correlate with the # of items you get). Keep in mind that 0 is a valid number and can be used. zzz = Item name: 000 = Potion 0A0 = Gatling Gun 001 = Hi-Potion 0A1 = Assault Gun 002 = X-Potion 0A2 = Cannon Ball 003 = Ether 0A3 = Atomic

As of right now, I don't know what their purpose is (they may be disabled Key Items, I think). - Codes ending in 080 - 08F are swords for Cloud. - Codes ending in 090 - 09F are claws for Tifa. - Codes ending in 0A0 - 0AF are cannons for Barret. - Codes ending in 0B0 - 0BD are combs for Red XIII. - Codes ending in 0BE - 0C8 are rods for Aeris. - Codes ending in 0C9 - 0D6 are spears for Cid. - Codes ending in 0D7 - 0E4 are shurikens for Yuffie. - Codes ending in 0E5 - 0F1 are M-phones for Cait Sith. - Codes ending in 0F2 - 0FE are handguns for Vincent. The code ending in 0FF looks like a gun, but it is in fact Sephiroth's Masamune blade. - Codes ending in 100 - 11F are defensive bracelets. - Codes ending in 120 - 13F are accessories you equip. - Codes ending in 140 - FFF are 'glitch' items that don't exist and have no purpose/effect on the game. In the Japanese version of FF7, having 'selected' items in your inventory would cause an 'error checker' to appear (see it's description under the 'Super Select' code listing). MATERIA SELECT 8009D0xx - 00yy ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well well! Here's an interesting code. It works very much like the Item Select code above, except that you have to go into the Materia Screen. As long as the switch is up, you have an infinite number of whatever Materia you've selected. The only bad thing about this code is that it will sometimes start off the Materia orbs with 'beyond master' levels, meaning that you can use all their abilities, but you can't get another one by mastering it. According to Mr. DeLucas, this is because of their position (so if you want a materia with lots of AP, find a code/position that works and remember it). xx = Location where the materia appears on the Materia Menu. You can change this number to enter the code multiple times to have multiple materia of your choice, but you _must_ use EVEN numbers (i.e. A0, C4, or 86) or the game may glitch. Also, if this code would put a materia over an occupied space and not a blank one, the game may freeze or the materia may not appear. Finally, try to keep the location range between 8_ and C_ or the game may crash. yy = Name of Materia: 00 = MP Plus 2E = (glitch) 01 = HP Plus 2F = (glitch) 02 = Speed Plus 30 = Master Command 03 = Magic Plus 31 = Fire 04 = Luck Plus 32 = Ice 05 = EXP. Plus 33 = Earth 06 = Gil Plus 34 = Lightning 07 = Enemy Away 35 = Restore 08 = Enemy Plus 36 = Heal 09 = Chocobo Plus 37 = Revive 0A = Pre-emptive 38 = Seal 0B = Long Range 39 = Mystify 0C = Mega All 3A = Transform 0D = Counter Attack 3B = Exit 0E = Slash-All 3C = Poison 0F = Double Cut 3D = Demi 10 = Cover 3E = Barrier 11 = Underwater 3F = 12 = HP <-> MP 40 = Comet 13 = W-Magic 41 = Time 14 = W-Summon 42 = 15 = W-Item 43 = 16 = 44 = Destruct 17 = All 45 = Contain 18 = Counter 46 = Full Cure 19 = Magic Counter 47 = Shield 1A = MP Turbo 48 = Ultima 1B = MP Absorb 49 = Master Magic 1C = HP Absorb 4A = Choco/Mog 1D = Elemental 4B = Shiva 1E = Added Effect 4C = Ifrit 1F = Sneak Attack 4D = Titan 20 = Final Attack 4E = Ramuh 21 = Added Cut 4F = Odin 22 = Steal as well 50 = Leviathan 23 = Quadra Magic 51 = Bahamut 24 = Steal 52 = Kjata 25 = Sense 53 = Alexander 26 = 54 = Phoenix 27 = Throw 55 = Neo Bahamut 28 = Morph 56 = Hades 29 = Deathblow 57 = Typoon 2A = Manipulate 58 = Bahamut ZERO 2B = Mime 59 = Knights of Round 2C = Enemy Skill ** 5A = Master Summon 2D = (glitch) 89 = (glitch) * Codes ending in 16, 26, 3F, 42 and 43 are 'disabled' Materia that you can't normally get during the game. In the Japanese game, they were still usable, but their abilities, descriptions, and other stats. have been removed/altered in this release. Note that the Underwater materia has been made into a real, usable Materia! It's not used to revive Aerith, but to explore more of the underwater areas (and fight the underwater Weapon monster). ** Starts off with a variable number of stars (usually missing the first eight or stars 3, 6, and 7). - Codes ending in 00 - 0D, 10 and 12 are Independant Materia. - Codes ending in 0E, 0F and 17 - 23 are Combination Materia. - Codes ending in 13 - 15, 24, 25, 27 - 2C and 30 are Command Materia. - Codes ending in 31 - 3E, 40, 41, and 44 - 49 are Magic Materia. - Codes ending in 4A - 5A are Summon Materia. - Codes ending in 2D - 2F, 89 are game glitches and not real Materia. - However, equipping the '089' materia will raise most of your stats. to 255 and your MAX MP to 999, although your HP will be dramatically reduced. - All other codes (5B - FF, excluding 89) are game glitches and not real Materia. For information on the disabled materia, refer to part 2 of my Japanese FF7 FAQ. However, here is a quick explanation: 16 - Booster : A Support materia with no use. 26 - Law : A Command materia with the Throw and Coin abilities. 3F - MBarrier: A Magic materia with the MBarrier spell (3 levels). 42 - Reflect : A Magic materia with the Reflect and Wall spells. 43 - Rifuabu : A Magic materia with the Wall spell (3 levels). and.... 11 - Underwater Breath : An Independent materia with no use. This was made into a real, usable materia called 'Underwater' in the US version. SUPER SELECT 800F389E - 0xxx ------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: As far as I know, you have to enter this in your Comms Link and turn it on in-game in order for the code to work. It _will not_ work with a normal GameShark, as far as I know. Even with a Comms Link, I'm having trouble getting it to work (if you can only use Turbo Ethers or Phoenix Downs, the code isn't behaving properly, BTW). Basically, this code will let you do just about anything in battle. It works like this: - Use an item, and it will become whatever item you specified in terms of effect. You do lose one of whichever item you selected, though. - Cast a spell, and the spell will instead be the one specified. The amount of MP you lose is determined by the spell you selected via this code, not the one you chose in the spell menu. This also applies to using Summons and Enemy Skills. - Manipulate an enemy, and you can choose which power you want it to use, even ones that aren't listed. - Assuming the game doesn't crash :), you can enter an 'error checker' mode that allows you to exit out of battle immediately. This can be used against normal enemies and bosses, and while exiting out (by pressing L1+R1+Select) doesn't get you any AP, EXP, or Gil, it's considered a win for all practical purposes as events will continue normally should you exit out of a boss battle, etc. This code affects all your allies. You need at least one of the following in order to make use of this code: - One Magic Materia in order to cast spells. - One Summon Materia in order to call a summoned monster. - One Enemy Skill Materia in order to use Enemy Skills. - One Manipulate Materia in order to manipulate enemies. - At least one item that is usable in battles in order to change the effects of that item. - One character who has his Limit Break bar maxed out, at any level. (optional) This chart below shows how the number you enter into the code affects the resulting commands in battle: xxx = ITEM RESULT SPELL RESULT SUMMON RESULT E.

(It would take forever to write out the whole thing. Refer to the Game Shark item list for the 'Item Select' code if you need help, and experiment with the other numbers with caution ^_^;) Notes __________________________________________________________________ USING ITEMS: - After 046, all items will do zero damage when used. The effect that goes with each item changes (Fire2, Vaccine, etc.) USING SPELLS: - 036 will instantly summon Death, who will kill one of your characters. - Using 037 gives you a blank spell, which you can never have enough MP to cast. - Using 038 - 047 casts a spell with the name of a Summoned Monster. All of these spells cause immense damage to the enemy, except Leviathan, which causes zero damage. - Using 048 - (onwards) casts a spell with the name of a Enemy Skill. The effect upon a target is very strange (looks like an Elixir being used, sounds like Barrier, etc.) but the result really is that particular Enemy Skill. USING SUMMONS: - Using 10 - 21 results in a Summon with the name of the current spell, and the summoned monster is the base monster onwards. The result is the corresponding base Enemy Skill (for example, 10 makes you cast MBarrier, which looks like Choco/Mog, and hits one enemy with the effects of Frong Song. On the other hand, 12 makes you cast Wall, which looks like Ifrit, and hits one enemy with the effects of Magic Hammer). USING ENEMY SKILLS: - Using 17 or 18 doesn't summon anything, but the resulting damage and range are similar to the Fat-Chocobo and Gunge Lance summonings. - Using 1A - 1E result in you casting Roulette. - Using 1F makes you cast Matra Magic. - Using 20 really does cause Death Joker (ouch)! USING THE MANIPULATE MATERIA: - Assuming you can manipulate an enemy, you need only change the number and try to use any of that enemy's powers to see what the result is. Note that if you go to far ahead (try to access a power that isn't there), you may crash the game or start up the 'error checker'. USING LIMIT BREAKS: - In most cases, using a Limit Break results in the 'error checker' starting up. However, be careful, because you may end up crashing the game if the code gives your characters someone else's Limit Break (in one case, Red 13 tried to use Gigadunk and the game crashed. Another time, he did Vincent's 'Satan Slam', and it worked!) CAUTION: - Using this code along with the 'Throw' command will hang the game as your character tries to throw repeatedly. - This code may cause enemies or allies to move to different locations on the screen, and will interfere with the zoom/position of the battle camera. - Some of the numbers will cause the game to hang. Others cause the 'error checker' to appear, so use them with caution. Okay, as you can tell, this code still requires much more testing. If you come up with any interesting results, please let me know. Right now, I'm trying to discover an easier, surefire method of calling up the 'error checker' using this code (as that would allow you to skip any battle instantly!) NO TIME LIMIT - ANY CHARACTER 800E7A48 - 000x ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Replace x with: 0 = Character in the 1st position 1 = Character in the 2nd position 2 = Character in the 3rd position When using this code, the affected character(s) will be given their chance to act during a battle immediately. You can also give them new commands while they are attacking, casting magic, etc (the only exception is during a Summon or if they get past the initial frames of a Limit Break). Otherwise, the battle is played out normally. This code can lead to some strange situations, like windows that don't close, or you may have chosen to cast a spell eight times in a row only to run out of MP after the third one (in which case, you simply waste the next 5 turns while the message "You don't have enough MP!" appears on the screen repeatedly. In some cases, there's nothing you can do about the windows, but if you try going into that particular window (say, the Limit Break window), and then exiting out, it should close. GAIN LOTS OF EXPERIENCE POINTS 8009D7D8 - xxxx ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Replace xxxx with any number; FFFF for the most EXP, 0000 for no EXP. This code gives you hecka EXP when you win a battle, regardless of what kind of enemy you fought. That's all there is to it :) BATTLE COMMAND SELECT - 1ST POSITION 8009D8A4 - 02xx ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This code will make the third slot in your Battle Command window change to what you specified using this code: Replace xx with = 00 = Left 0F = 4x: 01 = Attack 10 = 02 = Magic 11 = Mug 03 = Summon 12 = Change 04 = Item 13 = Defend 05 = Steal 14 = Limit 06 = Sense 15 = W-Magic 07 = Coin 16 = W-Sum. 08 = Throw 17 = W-Item 09 = Morph 18 = Slash-All 0A = D.blow 19 = 2x-cut 0B = Manip. 1A = Flash 0C = Mime 1B = 4x-cut 0D = E.Skill 1C = 0E = All: 1D = Normal abilities will work as they should, but some of them function a little differently. Note that none of the commands that make use of the Summon screen actually reduce your character's MP, although you must have enough MP to be able to select that summon spell. Left - When used, this brings up the Summon Screen (you must have at least one equipped Summon Materia for this to work). Choosing a summon results in no effect for that character's turn. Change - When used, this brings up the Summon Screen (you must have at least one equipped Summon Materia for this to work). Choosing a summon results in the character changing row position. Defend - When used, this brings up the Summon Screen (you must have at least one equipped Summon Materia for this to work). Choosing a summon results in the character defending for that turn. Limit - When used, this brings up the Summon Screen (you must have one or more Summon Materia equipped for this to work). Choosing a summon results in the character's respective Limit Break. The 'Limit' ability is by far the best one, because you can use any limit break providing you have seven Summon materia equipped (4 in the case of Vincent, 2 for Cait Sith), without having to change break levels or fill your Limit Bar. Even better: if you try to use a Limit Break you don't have (the 8th summon for most characters, the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th and so on for Vincent, or the 2nd, 4th, and so on for Cait Sith), you get a _perfect_ 'error checker' allowing you to bypass _any_ battle, boss or otherwise! Codes submitted by contributors: CHARACTER SELECT - SEE THEM DURING THE GAME 8009CBDC - xxyy submitted by Igancio DeLucas 8009CBDE - 00zz ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Replace xx, yy, and zz with the number that represents your character. This code allows you to choose three characters at one time: xx, yy, zz = 00 - Cloud Strife 01 - Barret Wallace 02 - Tifa Lockheart 03 - Aeris Gainsborough 04 - Red 13 05 - Yuffie Kisaragi 06 - Cait Sith (sometimes, Young Cloud) 07 - Vincent Valentine (sometimes, Sephiroth) 08 - Cid Hiwind 09 - 0A - 0B - 0C - <'Nau Purintingu'> (Now Printing) 0D - <'Nau Purintingu'> (Now Printing) With this code, the character in the first position (use the 'Order' command from the main menu) can be seen in the rendered areas (note that it may be the second position, this seems to happen from time to time). In the World Map, your character will be Cloud unless one of the characters has been specified as Tifa or Cid, in which case, that character will be the one shown regardless of order. Note that only Cloud can climb up ladders and do other acts other than walking or running, and if you try to do such an activity with another character, you will hear the sound of that character doing something, but they won't actually do it, and if you try again, the game may glitch. Also, note that your character won't always appear in some areas, and that they won't actually change until you exit an area. An even stranger glitch is that, if you start a game saved in the World Map, that you are transported, usually out into the ocean at the far edges of the map. I haven't found a use for this yet, but it's interesting, to say the least. Otherwise, this code works like the CHARACTER SELECT - 3RD POSITION code listed below, including glitches and game bugs (having a character die in battle, the trouble with the Sephiroth, Now Printing character codes, having the leader be invisible, activating the 'error checker', etc.) USE ANY OPTION ANYWHERE 8009D2A4 - xxxx submitted by Ignacio DeLucas 8009D2A6 - 0000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- With this code, all of the Main Menu options are available during any point of the game, even if they are greyed out or not supposed to be visible w/out the code. Replace xxxx with 0000 for no options available (heh), but the one you'll want to use is FFFF, which gives you all abilities. Note that if you have less than 3 characters (and no characters in the 'inactive' group), and you enter the PHS menu, you can't exit out, as you have to make a three-member party but won't have enough members. Mr. DeLucas would like to stress that credit is also due to the original creator of the 'Save Anywhere' code, whoever he/she is, because he used that person's code as a basis for this one. SET TELEVISION RATING IN JUNON TOWN PARADE 80075E40 - xxxx submitted by Ignacio DeLucas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- With this code on, during the part in Junon Town (in Disc 1) where you are supposed to march behind the soldiers, you can set the percentile rating you recieve. Replace xxxx with 0000 for the worst rating, or 5500 for the best rating. Note that you should turn this code on _after_ the commander tells you to get in line, or the game may glitch (as in, he'll never ask you to get moving, so you'll stay marching). SET DRILL EXCERISE SCORE IN JUNON TOWN SEND-OFF 80075E3A - xxxx submitted by Ignacio DeLucas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- With this code activated, during the drill part of Rufus' send-off to Costa Del Sol (the part where you must follow the soldier's lead and turn, act, etc.), you can set the score Rufus gives you depending on his attitude. Replace xxxx with 0000 for the worst score, or 0014 for the best score. SET POINTS EARNED FROM PLAYING G-BIKE GAME 800BDFB4 - xxxx submitted by Ignacio DeLucas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- When turned on, this code can be used to determine the score you'll receive from the G-Bike game at the Gold Saucer (not the actual G-bike scenario when you escape from the Shinra Headquarters). Replace xxxx with 0000 for the worst score, or 2000 for the best score. FIRST FIVE ENEMIES HAVE BEEN SCANNED, LIKE USING 'SENSE' 800F5CF0 - 4000 submitted by Ignacio DeLucas 800F5D34 - 4000 800F5D78 - 4000 800F5DBC - 4000 800F5E00 - 4000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you use the 'Sense' command on an enemy, it shows you it's vital stats. Afterward, pressing Select and highlighting a 'sensed' enemy with the cursor (usually when choosing a target), will display that enemy's amount of current/maximum HP. With this code activated, you can see the current/maximum HP of any enemy in the game, as if you had scanned them. Note that this code will work on _every_ enemy and boss, but that enemies that aren't normally able to be 'scanned' may have misleading amounts of HP, or they may cause this game to freeze, in which case, you'll have to reset the game. TURN ANY TAME CHOCOBO INTO A GOLD ONE 800E5674 - 0004 submitted by Ignacio DeLucas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Yeah, I fixed the 3/E mistake. Thank you everyone *sarcastic sigh* for telling me about this, repeatedly.... ^_^;) (Just to clear up any confusion, this is the same code as my Gold Chocobo code for the Japanese version of FF7. However, since Mr. DeLucas not only tested my code for me but corrected it so that it'd work on the US version, he gets credit for doing all the work :)) You must be riding a tame chocobo (any color) for this code to work (you can get tame chocobos in Disc 2 or 3, see the 'breeding' guide for more information). When this code is activated, your chocobo will gain all the abilties that a gold chocobo would have (it can go over rivers, mountains, the sea, etc.) Remember, though, you can't leave the World Map while the code is on, so you'll have to turn off the code before entering any area. When you come back out, the chocobo will have 'reverted' to normal, so you'll have to get back on and flip the switch up again to re-activate the code. Also, the code sometime glitches if you enter the desert around the Gold Saucer. ALTER CLOUD'S ELEMENTS/STATUS AILMENTS EFFECTS (see below) submitted by Ignacio DeLucas ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Since all of these codes only apply to Cloud, and because they all work in the same way, I'm listing these codes together: Any Weapon attack strikes with all Elemental types: 8009D888 - FFFF This code works just as it says. However, if an enemy is immune to a certain type of element, then they will be healed instead of harmed regardless of the other active elements. Take half damage from all Elements: 8009D88A - FFFF Take No damage from all Elements: 8009D88C - FFFF Absorb all Element damage as HP: 8009D88E - FFFF (Remember that for these last three codes, you're also able to defend against the unlisted 'non-element' damage type.) Any Weapon attack strikes with all Status Ailments: 8009D890 - FFFF 8009D892 - FFFF (With this code, the 'Petrified' status takes precedence over all other status afflictions, so while you are attacking with every status effect, the one that will override the others is 'Petrify'. If you haven't already realized this, using Slash All along with this code lets you petrify all enemies with one attack, instantly making you win the battle..... :)) Cloud is unaffected by all Status Ailments: 8009D894 - FFFF 8009D896 - FFFF (Unfortunately, this code seems to affect beneficial status changes as well, such as Haste.) GAIN LOTS OF ABILITY POINTS 8009D7DC - 8FFF submitted by Jeff Wong ------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you win a battle, you'll gain lots of AP. Don't change the number to a value higher than 8FFF or you won't actually earn the AP listed. UNLIMITED GIL 8009D260 - FFFF submitted by Jeff Wong ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This code gives you a huge amount of gil, which you'll always have the same amount of as long as the switch is up. You can save your game in order to retain all the extra money, too. HAVE 9999 GOLD PIECES AT THE GOLD SAUCER 8009D3D2 - 270F submitted by Jeff Wong ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The title says it all. You'll have 9999 GP, and if you save the game, you'll retain all that GP, too. HAVE 65000 BATTLE POINTS AT THE GOLD SAUCER 8009D3D8 - FDE8 submitted by Jeff Wong edited by Dave Upton ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This works much like the last two codes in that you'll have lots of BP, and that number won't decrease as long as the switch is up. However, since BP are temporary, if you leave the Battle Square with the switch off, all your BP are lost. NO RANDOM BATTLES WHILE ON THE WORLD MAP 8007173C - 0000 NO RANDOM BATTLES WHILE IN A RENDERED AREA 8011627C - 0000 submitted by Jeff Wong ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Both of these codes are listed together because they function similarily, and you'll want to use them both ^_^; As long as the switch is up, you'll never run into battles, however, you _will_ have to fight boss battles and other unavoidable confrontations. KEY ITEM SELECT (see below) submitted by Charles Mac Donald ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yup, someone finally came up with a Key Item Select code (I've been trying to make one since the earliest versions of my Japanese FAQ way back in March), and it's none other than Charles MacDonald! I'll let him explain how the code works from here: 8009 D2C8 FFFF - 1st 16 items 8009 D2CA FFFF - 2nd 16 items 8009 D2CC FFFF - 3rd 16 items 8009 D2CE 0007 - Last 3 items The key items are divided into four sets of 16 items, the last set having only 3. The way the items are enabled corresponds to the _binary_ value of the number, i.e.: hex: binary: 0001 = 0000000000000001 : Item 1 0003 = 0000000000000011 : Items 1-2 0007 = 0000000000000111 : Items 1-3 00FF = 0000000011111111 : Items 1-8 You can only have item sets 1&2 or 3&4 enabled; if you mix them, the game will slow down or lock up. Most likely, there's two items that are conflicting with each other, but I didn't have enough time to try all the possibilities. Also, certain key items (Like PHS) you can't use immediately, even though you have that item. That's because the use of some items are story- driven. You just have to wait [until they become normally usable]. (Okay, back to me!) Obviously this code is cool because it lets you have all the items, but as they are story-driven (like CGFM2 sez), you can't (for example), have the Sector 5 Key in your inventory and return to Midgar City in Disc One. Still, though, this code is worth having (since it turns out it's possible to make one after all). Hopefully this code will help put to rest a *ahem* certain rumor that stated you could return to Midgar in Disc One.... ========================================================================= 9 . A P P E N D I X ========================================================================= ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 1 m a t e r i a o r b s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- As you play the game, you'll find, buy, and be given Materia Orbs. When equipped, these orbs have various functions (like Relics from FF3), and become stronger as you use them (like the Classes from FF5j). There are five types of Materia: Green - Spell Materia. When equipped, you can cast spells like Lightning, Fire, Cure, Barrier, etc. Yellow - Command Materia. These give you the ability to Steal, Throw, Mimic, etc. Purple - Independent Materia. These will increase your scores, like Max HP or Speed Plus. Blue - Support Materia. These augment the power of certain other Materia. For instance, the 'Select All' Materia, when combined with a Fire materia, lets you cast a fire spell on all foes. Red - Summon Materia. These let you summon monsters, like Chocobo, Shiva, Bahamut, or even Typoon! You can equip Materia from the Main Menu, and mix and match them in any way you want. This is how they work: Weapons and bracelets have a certain number of 'holders' on them. You can equip one Materia per holder. So, if a sword has one holder and a bracelet has five holders, you can equip six Materia in all. The benefit to equipping a Materia is the skills/magic/etc. it gives you. The bad part is that equipping Materia tends to lower your statistics. While this is only temporary, you'll have to decide if you value skills or scores more when equipping certain Materia. To restore your stats. to normal, simply unequip the Materia you're using. You'll notice that some holders aren't connected, and some are (it looks something like this: 0=0 ). Connected holders are used to couple an Independent Materia with another Materia, since Independent Materia have no effect on their own. When you win a battle, you gain AP (Ability Points). Each Materia has a number of stars, representing its' 'levels'. All Materia start off at level 1, but can be increased to their max. level. The more level stars a Materia has, the stronger and more useful it becomes. To gain a star level, you have to gain a certain number of Ability Points, just like raising levels or learning Esper magic (in FF3). However, only Materia that you have equipped earn AP. Luckily, that Materia has the same number of points no matter who uses it. For example, let's say Cloud keeps the Choco/Mog materia equipped for a long time, and manages to raise it to level 2. If Barret, who's never worn that Materia before, equips it, he can also use it at level 2 strength. When you do 'master' a Materia (by gaining all its' levels), you will instantly get another Materia of the same type! Even though it will begin at level 1 (i.e. unused), this means that you can have as many Ultima or Bahamut materia as you want (for example), providing you max out the ones you already have beforehand. Be sure to sell off Materia that you don't need; if you have a full Materia list with no empty places and you master a materia that you have equipped, it will appear in a random location on the list, permanently erasing the Materia that was in it's place (guess the programmers at Square never bothered to check that out, did they?) You'll want to be careful if you have more than one of the same Materia, because you have to raise them seperately. And there's no point in giving two of the same Materia to the same person! Try to figure out what Materia works best with which person (i.e. give the MAX MP Plus Materia to a good magic-user, and give the Deathblow materia to a character with low normal attack power). Also, take note of the way the holders look; if they don't have silver dots in them (like this: O=O or just O), then you can still equip Materia, but you can't level- up them since none of the AP you gain in battles will be distributed to the Materia in that weapon or item. The tradeoff is that such equipment is usually very strong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 2 h u g e m a t e r i a / m a s t e r m a t e r i a ------------------------------------------------------------------------- From Disc 2 onwards, you have the chance to find and collect four 'Huge Materia'. They can be gotten from these locations: - North Corel (stop the train) - Fort Condor (win the simulation battle) - Upper Junon (go to the Underwater Reactor, get a Shinra submarine, sink the red submarine, and then find it underwater) - Rocket Town (release it from the guard system inside the rocket) If you fail any of these quests, you can always dig up the Huge Materia at Bone Village in Disc 3, or at least, I've been told this by numerous people. PLEASE NOTE: The Huge Materia types are NOT determined by where you get them from, but the order you get them in! That order is: Yellow Huge Materia (from North Corel) Green Huge Materia (from Fort Condor) Red Huge Materia (from the sunken Shinra submarine) Blue Huge Materia (from Cid's rocket) So, if you fail the first three quests, you'll still get the 'from North Corel' Huge Materia when you explore Cid's Rocket. See what I mean? While you have to get two of the Huge Materia in order to make the game progress during Disc 2, you don't need to collect all four of them. However, you can get the powerful 'Master Materia' from the Huge Materia, as well as the strongest Bahamut summon materia, 'Bahamut ZERO', so it's advisable that you try to find them all. You can receive the following materia from each Huge Materia: NAME DESCRIPTION PREREQUISITES Master Magic Cast any magic spell Huge Green materia and a 'master' level for all 21 magic materia. Note that you can't get this materia until Disc 3 as not all the Magic materia are obtainable in Disc 2. Master Command Use most commands Huge Yellow materia and a 'master' level for seven command materia (see below). Master Summon Use all summon spells Huge Red materia and a 'master' level for all 16 summon materia. Bahamut Form Zero A summon materia Huge Blue materia and the Bahamut and Neo Bahamut summon materia orbs. Once you've fulfilled the prerequisites to get a certain master materia, simply return to Bugenhagen's observatory in Cosmo Canyon and touch the correct Huge Materia (I hope you have the Huge Materia on you/have already taken it to the observatory in Cosmo Canyon beforehand!) Pick the first option and the screen will glow; pick the top option to get your master materia or the bottom option if you want to get that particular master materia later. You do have to have all the mastered materia on hand, but it doesn't matter whether they're equipped or not. If you're trying to get Bahamut ZERO, then all you have to do is touch the huge blue materia and you'll automatically receive it after choosing the first option; you have to get this summon spell before you can receive the Master Summon materia (don't forget that you need Bahamut and Neo Bahamut, too). There's good news and bad news, though: - All of the Master materia do not have level stars, so you can't simply 'master' them and get a second Master Materia. Wearing one doesn't effect your statistics, either (so all of you who were hoping for a 'MAX MP +80%' or something like that will be disappointed!) - When you receive a Master materia, you lose all the materia that you mastered. This means that not only will you be left with a bunch of low-level materia (since you get another materia of the same type when you master it, remember?), but you'll have to master each of them if you want to get a second Master materia of that type. The good news is that if you have two mastered orbs of the same type (say, two Fires and you're trying to get the Master Magic materia), you'll only lose one and keep the other. So, if you have two mastered Kjata materia and you get a Master Summon materia and want another one, you'll only have to level-up 15 orbs instead of 16 since one is already mastered. Individual notes on the Master materia: - If you affix a combination materia like All or Random Magic Strike to the Master Magic orb, it will affect all the spells! However, not all combination materia work with each spell. - When you master a Summon materia, you can call a particular summoned beast five times. With the Master Summon materia equipped, you can summon any beast an infinite number of times (providing you have the MP for it)! Like the Master Magic materia, Combination materia attached to this orb will affect all summon spells. - You only have to master the Steal, Sense, Throw, Morph, Deathblow, Manipulate and Mime materia orbs in order to get the Master Command materia. This may sound good, but then again, all you get are the above abilities of those materia: this orb won't let you use other commands like Flash, W-Item, Enemy Skill, or Slash All, for example (but you can equip these seperately, if you like). - And of course, there are no Master Support or Master Independant Materia :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 3 m a t e r i a l i s t ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This section lists each Materia and explains it's abilities and other information: ========================================================================= MAGIC MATERIA (Green Materia) - ATTACKING SPELLS ========================================================================= ------------------------------------------------------------------------- MATERIA: Fire COST AP NEEDED EFFECT Level 1: Fire 4 0 Fire element damage Level 2: Fire 2 22 2000 Fire element damage (x2) Level 3: Fire 3 55 18000 Fire element damage (x3) Level 4: -- -- 35000 -- STATUS CHANGES: STRENGTH -01 MAGIC +01 MAXHP -02% MAXMP +02% LOCATED AT: Wall Market, Costa Del Sol, Fort Condor, Mideel (comes equipped on Red 13) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- MATERIA: Ice COST AP NEEDED EFFECT Level 1: Ice 4 0 Ice element damage Level 2: Ice 2 22 2000 Ice element damage (x2) Level 3: Ice 3 55 18000 Ice element damage (x3) Level 4: -- -- 35000 -- STATUS CHANGES: STRENGTH -01 MAGIC +01 MAXHP -02% MAXMP +02% LOCATED AT: Wall Market, Costa Del Sol, Mideel, Fort Condor (comes equipped on Cloud) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- MATERIA: Lightning COST AP NEEDED EFFECT Level 1: Bolt 4 0 Lightning element damage Level 2: Bolt 2 22 2000 Lightning element damage (x2) Level 3: Bolt 3 55 18000 Lightning element damage (x3) Level 4: -- -- 35000 -- STATUS CHANGES: STRENGTH -01 MAGIC +01 MAXHP -02% MAXMP +02% LOCATED AT: Wall Market, Costa Del Sol, Mideel, Fort Condor (comes equipped on Cloud) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- MATERIA: Earth COST AP NEEDED EFFECT Level 1: Quake 6 0 Earth element damage Level 2: Quake 2 28 6000 Earth element damage (x2) Level 3: Quake 3 68 22000 Earth element damage (x3) Level 4: -- -- 40000 -- STATUS CHANGES: STRENGTH -01 MAGIC +01 MAXHP -02% MAXMP +02% LOCATED AT: Kalm town, Costa Del Sol ------------------------------------------------------------------------- MATERIA: Poison COST AP NEEDED EFFECT Level 1: Bio 8 0 Poison element damage Level 2: Bio 2 36 5000 Poison element damage (x2) Level 3: Bio 3 80 20000 Poison element damage (x3) Level 4: -- -- 38000 -- STATUS CHANGES: STRENGTH -01 MAGIC +01 MAXHP -02% MAXMP +02% LOCATED AT: Kalm town, Costa Del Sol, Shinra Building - Floor 68 NOTES: The 'Bio' spell strikes for poison-element damage as well as causes the 'Poison' status ailment at the same time, resulting in continuous damage in later rounds. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- MATERIA: Gravity COST AP NEEDED EFFECT Level 1: Demi 14 0 Gravity element damage Level 2: Demi 2 33 10000 Gravity element damage (x2) Level 3: Demi 3 48 20000 Gravity element damage (x2.5) Level 4: -- -- 40000 -- STATUS CHANGES: STRENGTH -01 MAGIC +01 MAXHP -02% MAXMP +02% LOCATED AT: Cosmo Canyon; it appears after you kill Gi Nattak in the Gi Tribe Cave.

Equip them, then load up on support materia. For instance: Comet + HP Absorb, Comet + MP Absorb This produces a single casting of 'Comet' that will absorb both HP and MP. Materia chains can be doubled, too: Counter + Steal, Steal + Steal as well, Counter + Deathblow In this example, both Counter and Steal are doubled. This results in the character being hit, then stealing once, stealing a second time, then delivering a Deathblow attack. You can also supplement chains with other materia: W-Summon, Titan + MP Turbo, Titan + Quadra Magic For this one, you'll cast Titan eight times and will do more damage, because each Titan is being boosted by MP Turbo. It isn't really a 'chain', but notice the bonus of this setup: Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva, Shiva What's the point? I can now cast Shiva 16 times in 1 battle (or 80 times in one battle if they were all mastered). Okay, so maybe it's not that useful, but it can be done :) Here's a list of the pros and cons of materia (not all are listed because they are obviously useful or bad, like Gil Plus and Enemy Lure): MP PLUS / HP PLUS These materia can only increase your stats so high: 5 materia at 10%, 2 materia at 50%, and so forth. Watch to make sure you aren't equipping needless orbs if they aren't having an effect. LONG RANGE In addition to letting you attack from the back row without penalty, you can also attack flying/out of reach enemies with this materia equipped. Don't give it to Vincent or Yuffie, because their weapons have a 'long range' anyway. The same applies to Barret, but not all of his weapons are long-ranged. MEGA ALL This materia makes every battle command affect all targets. It comes in handy when used with magic, eliminating the need to attach multiple 'All' materias, and works well with command attacks. It also changes 'Attack' into 'Slash-All' but will cancel the effects of the Double Cut materia. COUNTER ATTACK Each time you're attacked, you'll make a normal physical attack, usually against the enemy that hit you, but it is sometimes random. Note that attacking does not imply damage; if you are drained of MP, or miss an attack or spell, you'll still counter-attack. Furthermore, you'll counterattack once for every materia you have equipped. So, if you have 16 Counter Attack materia, you can be hit once and then will strike back sixteen times. SLASH-ALL Try using the Command Counter trick along with this and you can use Steal as well or Added Effect, etc. along with Slash-All! This masteria is _really_ useful in such cases as Contain + Added Effect, since you can hit a group of enemies and (if you're lucky), petrify, paralyze and confuse all of them! DOUBLE-CUT Works nicely with the Command Counter trick, especially with Steal as well. COVER A great way to raise your Limit Bar, especially if you use a Hyper on yourself. Be sure that the character using this has high HP. And as long as he or she is covering others, it's in your best interest to give that person Counter Attack, Counter, or Magic Counter materia so that they can attack more. HP<->MP This materia has a very limited use, since it makes you incredibly weak. I suggest using it only for 'chains' of materia. At least use all your extra MP to cast 'Shield' on yourself so that you can stay alive for a while. This materia is good if you want to have a powerful magic user, providing you stick them in the back row and make sure that their defense is high. W-MAGIC Casting two spells in one turn may sound nice, but this works even better in long materia chains, allowing you to do the sequence twice. And if you throw in Quadra Magic, you're doing the whole thing eight times. On top of that (at this point, maybe you'll need HP<->MP afterall!), someone else can then Mimic it.... W-SUMMON See W-MAGIC, above. W-ITEM If you want to conserve Remedies, but a character is say, suffering from 'Minimum' and 'Poison', then use this materia so that you can use the 'Maiden's Kiss' and 'Antidote' on them, one after another. It's also useful if you layer attack items (Fire Fang, then Fire Fang), or to attack enemies and heal yourself at the same time (X-Potion, M-Tentacles). This materia also has a side-effect of duplicating items for free! The only requirement is that they have to be usable in battle. To do it, select the item you want to dublicate, then select another item (any item). Cancel that item, then choose another item, cancel that too, etc. Every time you cancel the second item, the first item in stock increases by one. That's right, infinite items! ALL Remember, this materia can work outside of battle (like casting Cure on all members at once). COUNTER Works like Counter Attack, but you will avenge yourself with the attached Command materia. Note that the 'Master Command' trick won't work with Counter, but you can equip multiple Counter materia for a repeating effect (i.e. get hit once and strike back with a Manipulate and three Deathblow attacks). MAGIC COUNTER Works like Counter, but using magic and summon spells. Use it in the same way. MP TURBO Avoid this materia like the plague. It really isn't that helpful, even when mastered, and the MP Cost rate shoots sky high. MP ABSORB Support this with something _really_ damaging, like the 'Master Command' trick, Deathblow, Knights of Round, etc. Only then is it really useful. This materia is a godsend if you're making a materia chain, because if the total damage is high, you'll ususally get back more MP then what it took for the casting. HP ABSORB The amount of HP you can win back just isn't enough to justify using this materia. Only good when supported by very powerful materia, like Knights of the round. Works okay if you do the 'Master Command, Double Cut' trick, but only if your attack power is high. ELEMENTAL In my opinion, not as useful as Added Effect, but it's still good. Not only can you use it to inflict extra damage on enemies, but try this on for size: if you give yourself a bracelet or accessory that drains that particular attached element, or put the same combination on your bracelet and your Elemental materia is mastered, you can attack yourself and get free HP! Elemental works well with Choco/Mog since it's the only way in the game to attack with the wind element. ADDED EFFECT This is IT. One of the most useful materia in the whole game. Until you find the Ribbon, attaching this to your armor along with Hades will make you immune to seven status ailments. Attach it to your armor and use Destruct and you can make instant death attacks. Even better, use it with multiple effect materia (like Mystify or Contain), and you have a chance of striking and hitting with all the listed effects! See SLASH-ALL for details. SNEAK ATTACK By itself, this is okay, but it really shines in a materia chain. For instance, try using the same materia (say three of them), attached to Sneak Attack, Added Cut, and Steal as Well. Now you not only got a free use of whatever was attached to the Sneak Attack materia, but a free attack and chance to steal, too. The 'Master Command' trick won't work with this materia, though. FINAL ATTACK This overhyped materia isn't that useful, because it won't always work. Otherwise, try linking it to Revive or Phoenix to keep yourself alive. Otherwise, it doesn't have much use, and as a materia chainer, it's useless, because you'll be dead at the end of your chain ^_^; ADDED CUT This is an okay support materia. Try it in a materia chain along with HP or MP Absorb in order for a higher damage/payback total. Works well with just about anything, but don't link it to a spell you'd use on your allies! STEAL AS WELL This is _insanely_ useful if you use it with Slash-All and the Master Command trick. Otherwise, try using it along with a function that is under the influence of 'All' or 'Mega All' so that you can steal from everyone. If an enemy is hard to steal from, try the Master Command trick and Double Cut for two chances to steal (or Steal + Steal as well for two chances to steal). QUADRA MAGIC Another overhyped materia. Sure you can cast a spell or summon four times, but the effect is drastically reduced. It's passable if combined with W-Magic, though, and works good with percent chance spells (such as Choco/Mog's chance of paralyzing an enemy), since the chance is effectively quadrupled. STEAL Just your average materia, but lose it the moment you get Steal as well. 'Mug' is nice but is only really useful if you use it and Mega-All. SENSE Remember, after Sensing an enemy, you can see their current/maximum HP by pressing Select and highlighting them with the cursor. You really should use some support materia along with this item so that it isn't a completely wasted turn. THROW Believe it or not, the throw command isn't useful unless you've got lots of one item to spare, because the damage isn't too hot. Coin, on the other hand, is just what the doctor ordered, but you'll need lots of gil to use it. Try mastering and selling All or Underwater materia. After all, the latter materia lets you get as much AP as you want on it, and you can always get more by giving Guide Books to the man in Kalm Town. MORPH Only useful when used along with an Ultimate Weapon, since the damage isn't so drastically reduced. DEATHBLOW Works nicely as a last ditch attempt, but you're better off attaching this to Added Cut or using in in tandem with Mega-All. A contributor points out that there is a way to make this ability hit _every_ time; just give your character a weapon with 255 accuracy (the God's Hand, Sniper CR, or Long Barrel R). MANIPULATE Not only does this let you control an enemy (although enemy commands are usualyy worthless), but that enemy can't move or attack during that time, meaning that you can kill them with spells easily (they won't break free), and use them to hit speedy enemies (like the cactus men on Cacteur Island). MIME The biggest benefit of this is that you can use it without a loss of items or MP. This means that if one character has a good materia chain (say, HP<->MP, four Magic Counter materia and four Knights of Round attached), they can use it, and then you can do the same thing for no cost whatsoever (...as if any enemy could survive that). The one downside to this is that if (using the above example), that character ran out of MP halfway through, you'd only mime the successfully cast magic/summons and not the rest. Since 'Mime' will mimic something more or less exactly, you can use it to imitate using Mega-All plus Deathblow (but not Slash-All or 2x Cut). You can even mime your own limit breaks! ENEMY SKILL Not all of the enemy skills are useful, but the ones that are useful are _really_ useful. After all, what spell works like Angel Whisper or Big Guard? And between ???? makes a great comeback attack. If you think searching out Enemy Skills is a waste of time, then you've got another thing coming to you. MASTER COMMAND Gives you a couple of commands...that's nice. What's slick about this orb is a little trick you can do: attach it to a support materia, then equip a Command materia that can't be supported, namely Slash-All or Double Cut. You can now use non-spell related support materia twice on one enemy or against all enemies, depending on what materia you use. EARTH Don't use it! The high MP cost isn't worth it when you could use Ice or Lightning for the same damage. Only good if an enemy is weak against Earth or strong against Fire/Ice/Lightning. RESTORE This materia and the All materia make a nice combination you should keep using throughout the game. Regen may seem useless, and it is, in normal battles. But in drawn out battles (such as most boss fights), this spell can keep you from death's door, since you'll have enough time to let it heal you round after round. HEAL Not really that useful, considering there are a number of accessories and items with the same effect as Heal's spells. Vaccine is especially useless, because it actually _keeps_ you suffering from any status ailment you may currently have. REVIVE If your levels are low, this one is good. Life 2 is also very handy along with Final Attack or when fighting powerful enemies. But in most cases, just keep a clutch of Phoenix Downs on you--you can get a lot of them easily throughout the game. SEAL / MYSTIFY / TRANSFORM All of these are useless, except for Mystify's 'Berserk' spell, which is best used on allies with high attack power. EXIT If Remove didn't cost so many MP (or prevent you from getting gil when used), this materia'd be more useful. Get a Smoke Bomb if you need to run away from battles, instead. POISON Doesn't always work, but it's ability to cause continuous damage is nice, even if the damage isn't that high. Good for 'using and forgetting' about, especially in a boss fight. DEMI When it works, it works nicely. Very effective when used with All. BARRIER Should be used only until you get Big Guard. Reflect isn't a great defense because not all spells can be reflected, and in FF7, two people with 'Reflect' will bounce the spell repeatedly. COMET If your character's attack power is low, give 'em Comet and that's that. This materia not only inflicts non-element damage, but the damage itself is very high. Comet 2 should be avoided, as it is 4 times weaker than Comet. TIME Haste and Stop. 'Nuff said. Even Slow is useful in certain situations. Works nicely along with 'Added Effect'. CONTAIN Break and Whirlwind are this materia's key attractions; they do element damage and they have a chance to petrify and confuse your enemy. Equip this one to Added Effect as soon as you can. See SLASH-ALL for details. FULL CURE Skip it. C'mon, Angel's Whisper is better than this, even! SHIELD Invincibility? Sounds good to me. Shield's short duration and high cost reduce it's usefulness, but it makes a great comeback materia, especially if you've got one guy left who's trying to revive his or her friends. ULTIMA Not so hot--and the cost is way too high. Whatever else, don't link it to Quadra magic. MASTER MAGIC Support it with All or Quadra Magic and you can influence most of the spells this way. SUMMON SPELLS Well, Choco/Mog is good in the beginning, and Alexander is great for holy damage, as is Hades for the multiple status ailments. Otherwise, don't use these in battle (except for Knights of Round and Phoenix); attach them to your weapon or armor along with Element or Added Effect. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 5 e n e m y s k i l l l i s t ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This section lists the enemy skills you can learn in numerical order. It also lists the amount of MP needed to use an enemy skill, the effect of that skill, and the locations of monsters you can learn them from. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 01 - FROG SONG COST - 5 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Transforms one foe into a frog and puts him/her/it to sleep. Learn: From the green frogs (Touch Me) in the circular forest near Gongaga Town (also from the other forests nearby). Tip: You can control the enemy and make it use Frog Song on you (pick the bottom option). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 02 - L4 SUICIDE COST - 10 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: All enemies with an experience level that is a multiple of 4 loses almost all their HP (you can't kill an enemy with this spell--the best you can do is reduce their HP to one point). In addition, they may be afflicted with the 'Minimum' status. Learn: Burrowing squirrel-like foes (Mu) found near the Chocobo Farm. Tip: You can't control this enemy, so you'll have to wait until they use it on you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 03 - MAGIC HAMMER COST - 3 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Bop one foe on the head and gain up to 100 MP (assuming the monster has enough MP). Learn: Plant-like monsters (Razor Weed) found on the tip of the Westernmost Continent (in the dark grass). Tip: You can control an Razor Weed and have it use the Magic Hammer against one of your allies (choose the third option). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 04 - WHITE WIND COST - 34 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Each ally regains lost HP and their status ailments are cured and dispelled. The amount of HP recovered depends on the current HP of the caster. Learn: The white and green cactus-like monsters (Zemzelett) in the grassy area by Junon Town , or from the winged serpents (Wind Wing) you fight if you're hit by a barrier at Whirlwind Maze Tip: You can't learn White Wind from a Zemzelett unless you control it and make it use the skill on you (pick the bottom choice to do this). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 05 - BIG GUARD COST - 56 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Has the same effect as casting Haste, Barrier, and MBarrier on all your allies. Learn: The spiky, shelled creatures with green tentacles (Beach Plug) that live on the shore near the Gongaga Town. Tip: The Beach Plug won't use Mighty Guard unless you control it and make it use the skill on one of your members (it's the middle option). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 06 - ANGEL WHISPER COST - 50 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: An angel appears above one person and brings them back to life if they are dead. They also relieve any status ailments and dispel any bad effects. In addition HP is restored to the amount shown during the skill's use; however, this can be a bane to characters with high HP because if your life is higher than the amount shown, it is reduced to that amount. You'd think that this would be a great way to weaken enemies with more than 9999 HP, but it won't work on your opponents in this manner--it will only heal them, remove status ailments, etc. :( Learn: From the beckoning women in the yellow swimsuits (Polan Solita) you meet in the Northern Crater if you take the right path the first time you meet your friends. Tip: The easiest way to learn this skill is by controlling your enemy and picking the bottom option to make them use this skill on you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 07 - DRAGON FORCE COST - 19 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Increases your physical and Magic Plus defense rating. Learn: From the dragons (Dark Dragon) you meet during the descent into the Northern Crater. Tip: You can't learn this unless you control the Dark Dragon and have it use Dragon Force on one of you (pick the second choice). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 08 - DEATH FORCE COST - 3 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: One ally becomes immune to instant death attacks (this doesn't protect you from dying if you lose all your HP). Learn: The huge tusked turtles (Adamantaimai) by the shoreline of the Westmost Continent. Tip: You can't learn this skill unless you control the turtle and make it use Death Force against you. To do this, choose the bottom option once it's under your control. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 09 - FLAME THROWER COST - 10 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: A stream of fire burns one foe for Fire damage. Learn: From any enemy that utilizes a fire breath attack. One of the earliest locations would be the room with the ladders and pipes where you fight the boss of the mountains behind Nibelheim; you can fight Dragons in that area that use Flame Thrower often. You can also learn it from the flying yellow monsters (Archdragon) in the Mythril Mine. Tip: While you could learn this skill by controlling a Dragon and picking the bottom choice to make it use this skill on you, chances are it will hit you with Flame Thrower as it's initial attack in the first place. The same goes for the flying Archdragons. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 10 - LASER COST - 16 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Reduces an enemy's HP by one-half. Learn: From Death Claw in the Corel Prison (in the caryard area near Dyne's home: just manipulate one of them). Or, from the dragons (Dark Dragon) you meet during the descent into the Northern Crater. Tip: You can either let the Dark Dragon use this ability on you, or you can control it (using Manipulate), and pick the top option to make it use Laser on one of your allies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 11 - MATRA MAGIC COST - 8 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Fire a pack of missiles at one enemy for magic damage. Learn: Machines with big feet and guns for arms (Sweeper Custom) around Midgar Area. Or from the wheeled robo-creatures in the underwater part of Junon Town. Tip: To learn this skill from the Sweeper Custom, just control it and choose the last option. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 12 - BAD BREATH COST - 58 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Inflict multiple status ailments upon all enemies, including Confusion, Frog, Minimum (Shrink), Mute, Poison, and Sleepel. Learn: From the Mobor creatures (green guys with tentacles and really big mouths) living on the outside ledges in Gaea's Cliff. You can also meet them in the Northern Crater, if you take the right path the first time you run into your friends. Tip: Be sure to have some protective accessories equipped when trying to learn this skill or your party may be too weakened by the Smelly Breath to kill the Molbor or even escape! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 13 - BETA COST - 35 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: A swirling red shape appears, surrounded by specks of white. All targets are hit for magic damage. Learn: The big shadow snake (Midgar Zolom) in the marsh near the Chocobo Farm. Tip: This monster won't use Beta unless he's waving back and forth. To make him do that, inflict heavy damage on him. Then just wait until he uses Beta. If he still doesn't use it, take off a little bit of his life since he tends to use Beta more when he's near death. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 14 - AQUALUNG COST - 34 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Blue bubbles strike all enemies for water damage. Learn: From the Jenova Birth in the Forgotten Capital , the Harpy in the plains surrounding the Gold Saucer ; or from the floating sea-dragon creature (Serpent) in the sunken plane near the Gold Saucer. Tip: To easily pick up this skill, just control a Harpy and choose the bottom option to make it use Aqualung. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 15 - TRINE COST - 20 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: A Delta Force-like attack that hits all enemies for lighting damage. Learn: Godo, of the pagoda's top floor in Wutai. Also from the red spider/crab-like creature (Stilve) living inside the Frozen Mountain , or the spider-like boss (Materia Keeper) of the mountains behind Nibelheim. . Remember, the _only_ time you can learn this skill is while fighting one of the above monsters, so learn it while you still can! Tip: Actually, the Materia Keeper is more likely to use this against your characters than any other enemy that can use this skill. It's a good thing, too, since you can't control it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 16 - MAGIC BREATH COST - 75 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Rainbow orbs hit all foes for fire, ice, and lighting damage. Learn: From the red spider/crab-like creatures (Stilve) living inside the Frozen Mountain. Also from the blue, leech-like enemies (Parasite) in the Northern Crater. Tip: To learn this skill from a Parasite quickly, control it and pick the last option to have it use Magic Breath on your allies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 17 - ???? COST - 3 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: A weight drops and hits for special damage. The amount is equal to the amount of damage the caster has received in battle. Learn: From the balance-like creatures (Jersey) in Nibelheim. Also from the purple behemoths (Behemoth) you encounter when raiding Midgar City. Keep in mind that you won't actually learn this skill unless you take damage from it. Tip: The Jersey will use this skill eventually. You can't control them, but they're easier to run into than the Behemoths. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 18 - GOBLIN PUNCH COST - 0 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: One foe is hit for physical damage. The damage inflicted is multiplied if your opponent has the same EXP level that you do. Learn: Imp-like monsters wearing boxing gloves :) (Goblin) found on the only forested island in the northeast area of the map. Tip: You can control the Goblins if you want (pick the middle option to use the Goblin Punch), but it's more likely that they'll hit you with it in the first place, so don't even bother and just let them strike first. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 19 - CHOCOBUCKLE COST - 3 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: A fat chocobo bounces around and hits one foe for special damage. This attack gains strength each time you flee from a battle. Learn: Purchase some Mimett Greens from the Chocobo Barn, and make sure you have L4 Suicide. There are chocobos living outside of the barn that you can use L4 Suicide on, so when you fight one of them, use a Mimett Greens on it, then cast L4 Suicide. With luck, it will counterattack with Chocobuckle (Disc 1). You can also learn this on Mideel Island in Disc 2 or 3 from the Chocobos living there. Tip: Make sure the chocobo you fight has a level that's a multiple of 4, or the L4 Suicide power won't work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 20 - L5 DEATH COST - 22 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: Any enemy whose level is a multiple of 5 is instantly killed. Learn: From the blue, leech-like enemies (Parasite) in the Northern Crater. Tip: Simply use Manipulate to command your foe and then choose the middle option if you want the Parasite to use Level 5 Death on one of your members. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 21 - DEATH SENTENCE COST - 10 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: One enemy is Condemned (they die when the counter over their head reaches zero). Learn: The Sneaky Steps in the Sealed Cave Also from the yellow, spiked enemies (Bound Fat) that live in front of and in the area behind the Forgotten Capital. Tip: You could control these guys (the Bound Fats), but if you kill one it will counterattack with this skill so it may be easier to simply off one, especially if you don't have the Manipulate materia. If you do, then simply control them and pick the bottom option to use the Death Sentence. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 22 - ROULETTE COST - 6 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: One friend or foe is randomly killed. Learn: From the floating card-jesters (Death Dealer) in the Northern Crater if you take the right path the first time you meet your friends. Tip: You can control the Death Dealer and make him use Roulette on you by picking the second option when the enemy abilities window appears. If it kills one of your enemies, you'll have to try again until the pointer lands on you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 23 - SHADOW FLARE COST - 100 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: A black flare hits a single opponent for magic damage. Learn: From the Ultimate Weapon in Disc 3; it uses it as a counterattack before dying. Or, learn it from the Dragon Zombies in the Northern Crater. Tip: If you're fighting the flying dragon, just kill it and it will use the Shadow Flare on you. If you're trying to learn it from a Dragon Zombie, you'll have to wait until it uses it since you can't control them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STAR 24 - PANDORA'S BOX COST - 110 MP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Effect: A star field and question mark appear; hits all enemies for physical damage. Learn: From the huge, multi-limbed bone dragons (Dragon Zombie) in the Northern Crater if you take the right path the first time you meet your friends. Tip: As the Dragon Zombies are uncontrollable, you'll simply have to keep fighting them until they use this skill on one of your characters. To learn an enemy skill, you must be equipped with an Enemy Skill materia. When an enemy hits you with it's special skill, you will learn it, even if it misses or kills you. However, unless you win the battle, you won't keep the skill you've learned. There are 24 skills in all, and one of the 24 stars on the Materia Menu will light up as you get more enemy skills. Note that you can't learn a skill and then have your player cast it on another person with an Enemy Skill materia; they _must_ learn it from enemies. You'll know if you learned a skill because the character with the materia equipped will spin in a circle once and you'll get a message. Keep in mind that if you're controlling a monster to learn a particular skill, you'll have to target the character wearing the Enemy Skill materia. For those of you who would like a more definitive guide, here is a list that shows the earliest point at which you can learn each skill as you play through the game: DISC ONE: - Learn 'Matra Magic' from the Sweeper Customs that will fight you just outside of Midgar City. - Learn 'L4 Suicide' from the Mus that live in the field around the Chocobo Farm. - Learn 'Chocoobuckle' from the Chocobos that live in the field around the Chocobo Farm. - Learn 'Beta' from Midgar Zolom in the nearby marsh. You must severely injure him (he'll start waving back and forth), before he will be able to use Beta against your party. - Learn 'Flame Thrower' from the Ark Dragons flying around in the Mythril Mine. - Learn 'White Wind' by manipulating a Zemlezett (found in the area near Junon), and having him use it on you. - Learn 'Aqualung' from the Harpys found near the Gold Saucer and in the Corel Desert area. You can also learn it from 'Jenova Life', who you fight in the Forgotten Captial. - Learn 'Laser' from the Death Claws in Corel Prison. - Learn 'Frog Song' from the Touch Mes in the forests in the Gongaga Area. - Learn 'Big Guard' from the Beach Plugs that live on the shores of the Gongaga Area. - Learn '????' from the Jerseys that roam the halls of the Shinra Mansion in Nibelheim. You can also learn this skill from the Behemoths in the area below Midgar (Disc 2), and from the King Behemoths in the last dungeon (Disc 3). - Learn 'Trine' from the Materia Keeper boss that you fight in the Nible Mountains. You can also learn this skill from the Stilves in Gaea's Wall (Disc 2). - Learn 'Death Force' from the Adamantaimais that live on the shore of the Wutai area. - Learn 'Magic Hammer' from the Razor Weeds in the Wutai Area. - Learn 'Death Sentence' from the Bound Fats in Zango Valley.

You can also learn it from the Dragon Zombies in the last dungeon (Disc 3). DISC THREE: - Learn 'Dragon Force' from the Dark Dragons in the last dungeon. - Learn 'L5 Death' from the Parasites in the last dungeon. - Learn 'Angel Whisper' from the Pollen Salitas in the last dungeon. - Learn 'Roulette' from the Death Dealers in the last dungeon. - Learn 'Pandora's Box' from the Dragon Zombies in the last dungeon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 6 l e a r n i n g l i m i t b r e a k s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A lot of people don't know how the process to learn Limit Breaks works, or they may not know how to learn all the Breaks. Basically, the Limit Break mastery process goes like this: Level 1, first Limit Break: - You start with this one, so don't sweat it. Level 1, second Limit Break: - You must use your first Limit Break of that level eight times. Level 2, first Limit Break: - Kill 80 enemies. You don't have to win that battle, you just have to be the one to kill a particular enemy (i.e. give them the finishing blow) using the character who's trying to learn a new Break. You can kill them in any way, too; use magic, use Morph, use an item, whatever. The number of enemies you have to kill is only 60 for Vincent. Level 2, second Limit Break: - You must use your first Limit Break of that level six times. Level 3, first Limit Break: - See 'Level 2, first Limit Break' notes. Level 3, second Limit Break: - You must use your first Limit Break of that level four times. Level 4, Extreme Limit Break: - You must know all your other Limit Breaks. Then, select your character's 'Extreme Limit Break' manual and use it on them just as you would any other item. See below for details on finding your character's Extreme Limit Break manual. When you're trying to learn first-grade Limit Breaks, try giving your character the Slash All materia, the Ultima spell, or some attack spell and the All materia and finding an area where you can encounter many, easy to kill enemies at once. As for second-grade Limit Breaks, use a 'Hyper' on the character who's Limit Break you're trying to get, and give them the Cover materia so that they'll take more damage. If you're really desperate to learn a Limit Break, give them a weak bracelet (like Wizard Bracelet), and a weak weapon, so that they can Limit Break repeatedly without killing the enemy. Roger Christman has this to say about Limit Breaks: Also regarding Level 2, and Level 3 Limit Breaks: I thought I'd study this a little on my own, and played the game with Cloud hanging out in the first room of the Mako 5 reactor, fighting lots of MPs and Guard Hounds. Counting the train station as his first solo battle with two opponents, Cloud did not learn his Level 2 break until he won over 40 solo battles against 120 opponents. The FAQ says between 40-80 opponents must be killed. Furthermore, Barret and Tifa seemed to get their 2nd Level break after only 90 kills, but I could easily see Cloud having a larger requirement since he's used for most of the game. In Tifa's case, since her weapon wasn't very good, I had Cloud soften up a few opponents for her by sitting in his back rank. Even though she didn't do all the work herself, she did deliver 90 final blows before she got her break. Oddly enough, Barret got his first level 3 Limit break before I left the Mako 5 reactor, even though he was still Set on level 1. I don't have my notes with me, but I think he had gotten up to about 150 killing blows. My numbers started getting fuzzy, since I was letting everybody fight there for awhile. I had Cloud set his Limit Level to 2, after his 200th kill (and after he got his 2nd Level 1 Break), but he hasn't yet gotten a level 3. For the record, in my test game, (assuming my bookkeeping is totally off), Cloud and Tifa each got their second Level 1 break, after using their first 6 times. I don't know about Barret yet -- his Limit Bar filled up for his 6th break just before the defeat of the Air Buster, so I'll have to see about him when he comes back. (back to the FAQ) In other words, my method listed here won't _for sure_ get you all the limit breaks exactly. So if someone can correct me (and has proof that they are correct), let me know and I'll make corrections. The Extreme Limit Break manuals' locations are listed here: CLOUD STRIFE You must earn a varying number of battle points at the Gold Saucer in _one visit_. You can then trade them in for the manual. BARRET WALLACE Get it from a lady wearing a hat in one of the buildings in North Corel after the train ride in Disc 2. TIFA LOCKHEART Go to Nibelheim in Disc 2 and play the 'Highwind' theme on the piano with Tifa in your party. AERIS GAINSBOROUGH Get xx wins in battle (where xx are two odd digits, for example: 33, 175 or 291). Then go to the cave where the sleeping man is and he'll give you the Mythril. Head to the blacksmith's house by the Gold Saucer, give him the Mythril, then climb up the stairs and examine the metal lid at the end of the walkway. Once you get the Highwind, doing this is a snap. But Aeris will have already left you by then. So, to get her manual while she's still in your party in Disc 1, do the following: Hop on the Gold Saucer Buggy. If you haven't gotten it yet, keep playing until you've finished the Gold Saucer area. Then pilot the Buggy _into_ Costa Del Sol. You'll enter the town as if you had walked into it. Go to the harbor and talk to the sailor by the boat. Choose the top option to pay 100 gil and you can then walk along the dock and enter a ship, which will return to Junon Town. Although there's not much new here, you will get a different reaction from most people because you're no longer dressed up as a guard. Anyway, once you exit the city (the fastest way is to take the helicopter-- refer to the end of section 4e for details), you'll find that you've brought the Buggy with you! From here, it's a simple matter of heading towards the river, crossing it at the ford below the waterfall, then heading up to the cave where the sleeping man is. And after getting the Mythril, you have to go _all_ the way back to the Eastern Continent so you can reach the blacksmith's house. Well, don't say I didn't warn you! RED XIII Go to Nibelheim and unlock the safe in the right wing of Sephiroth's Mansion (use the code in section 8 if you don't know how). You'll receive Red 13's manual from the boss when you defeat him. YUFFIE KISARAGI Return to Wutai after completing Yuffie's sub-quest. Head to the pagoda and beat the five bosses within--she'll get her manual once Godo is defeated in battle. VINCENT VALENTINE Once you have the submarine or a Green, Black, or Gold Chocobo, go to the waterfall in the middle of the Western Continent. If you enter the waterfall from the left side with Vincent in your party, he'll meet a girl from his past (Rukuresshia). You have to visit the falls twice, once during Disc 2 and again before raiding Midgar City; it's during your second visit that you'll get his manual. CID HIGHWIND After you get a submarine, go underwater and search for the wrecked plane near the southern part of the World Map, between the Western and Eastern continents. His manual is in one of the treasure chests inside the plane. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 7 l i m i t b r e a k l i s t ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a list of each character's Limit Break, it's effect, and a brief description. The letters and numbers mean the Break Level and which one it is (i.e. B3/1 is Level 3, 1st Break): ============ Cloud Strife ============ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: BRAVER ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cloud dashes forward and performs a diving slash against one opponent. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/2: CROSS-SLASH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cloud's three slashes create a symbol over his enemy. When it fades away, that enemy is hit once. It also has a chance of paralyzing the hit foe. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: BLADE BEAM ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cloud sends a wave of green energy at the targeted foe. When it hits, smaller waves shoot outward to hit each remaining foe, although the damage is less than the first, big wave. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/2: CLIMHAZZARD ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cloud sticks his sword into an enemy and then yanks it upwards while jumping for heavy damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/1: METEORAIN ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cloud twirls his sword and leaps into the air. With one swing, he sends a shower of meteors down upon his foes, hitting 4 times. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/2: FINISHING TOUCH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Creating a light at the tip of his sword, Cloud throws a funnel of rising air that sucks in all opponents for an instant kill attack. Those that survive are dropped to the ground for further physical damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B4/1: OMNISLASH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A column of wind surrounds Cloud and his sword lights up. He then attacks all enemies for a total of 15 hits, finishing with a diving sword slash. The sword strikes cause physical damage. ============== Barret Wallace ============== ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: BIG SHOT ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Collecting energy, Barret fires a huge fireball at one opponent. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/2: MINDBLOW ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Similar in appearance to the Heavy Shot, Barret launches a ball of azure energy at one opponent. While it inflicts no damage, it completely drains that enemy of MP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: GRENADE BOMB ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Barret fires an invisible shot that explodes into a huge hemisphere of fire that damages all opponents. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/2: HAMMERBLOW ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Barret dashes forward and punches one enemy as purple waves emanate from his arm. If it misses, this attack causes no damage, but if it hits, the enemy is instantly killed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/1: SATELLITE BEAM ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Barret locks on to his enemies and calls down beams of blue light to fry the opposition. This attack hits for special damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/2: UNGARMAX ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using his weapon like a machine gun, Barret fires repeated rounds of ammunition at all opponents. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B4/1: CATASTROPHE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steam erupts from Barret's weapon as he leaps into the air and fires an earth-scorching beam of yellow light at all his enemies. This attack hits ten times in all for special damage. ============== Tifa Lockheart ============== ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: BEAT RUSH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A quick combination of punches. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/2: SOMERSAULT ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A somersault kick. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: WATERKICK ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A sweep kick that hits for water damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/2: METEODRIVE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A back-slam. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/1: DOLPHIN BLOW ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A rising uppercut accompanied by a geyser of water with a dolphin riding on top of it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/2: METEOR SLAM ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tifa grabs her opponent, jumps in the air, and body-slams them as a huge explosion appears. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B4/1: FINAL HEAVEN ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tifa strikes her enemy with a huge, exploding attack. * Tifa's Limit Break works like this; the more Limit Breaks she learns, the more slots appear in the slot machine that picks the skill she uses (the abilities listed above). When she gains a new Break, she is able to use a new attack. She can learn up to 10 slots total. When picking a slot, there are three outcomes: HIT, which makes Tifa perform one of the above attacks, YEAH!, which works like HIT but increases the damage inflicted, and MISS, which makes Tifa do nothing. Tifa will then proceed to perform all the moves you end up with in a row. She will randomly switch to a new enemy (or stay with the one she's attacking) for each new move. ================== Aeris Gainsborough ================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: HEALING WIND ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aeris creates an encircling wind that restores a large amount of lost HP to herself and her friends. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/2: SEAL EVIL ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Purple lights fly into all of Aeris's opponents. This attack causes no damage but has the same effect as 'Stop' and 'Silence' on all of them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: BREATH OF THE EARTH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Streams of blue light wrap around the allies, curing status ailments. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/2: FURY BRAND ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aeris waves her staff, causing blue lightning to hit herself and her allies, followed by yellow, circular lights. This will instantly max out the other characters' Limit gauges. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/1: PLANET PROTECTOR ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stars rotate around Aeris and her friends as the screen turns yellow, making them invincible for a short while. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/2: PULSE OF LIFE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aeris kneels and prays; every ally's status ailments are cured and they gain back all lost HP and MP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B4/1: GREAT GOSPEL ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rain falls upon Aeris and her companions. It is replaced by a bright sky where three angels can be seen floating around. All allies have their HP and MP restored, and are made invincible for a short time. ====== Red 13 ====== ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: SLED FANG ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Swirls of blue energy surround Red 13, who tackles his opponent for physical damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/2: LUNATIC HIGH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sheets of yellow vapor shoot up from around Red 13 and his companions. It has the same affect as 'Haste'. Each ally is also 'powered up' (?). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: BLOOD FANG ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Swirls of energy surround Red 13, who tackles his opponent. In addition to striking for physical damage, Red is healed for a small amount of HP and also gains back some MP as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/2: STARDUST RAY ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A field of stars replaces the background. Red 13 howls and a shower of blue lights rain down on all opponents striking twelve times. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/1: HOWLING MOON ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A full moon appears, making Red 13 leap up and howl at it. He is affected by Berserk and Haste at the same time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/2: EARTH RAVE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Red 13 attacks the enemy with jumping bites and claw scratches. Each time he attacks, balls of fire burst forth and shower over the enemy. This attack hits five times for physical and fire damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B4/1: COSMO MEMORY ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Red 13 summons a flare into which a field of stars and balls of fire are absorbed. The flare then explodes in a ray of Fire followed by an explosion that hits all foes for fire damage. =============== Yuffie Kisaragi =============== ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: GREASED LIGHTNING ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yuffie slashes once with her weapon, causing no damage. A second slash mark then appears and her opponent is hit for physical damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/2: CLEAR TRANQUIL ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Globes of water surround Yuffie and her companions. When they pop open, each character regains some HP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: LANDSCAPER ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yuffie hits the ground and a line of blast waves heads towards her enemy. The ground buckles, then explodes, inflicting earth damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/2: BLOODFEST ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The screen turns red and Yuffie hits all enemies with her weapon 10 times for physical damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/1: GAUNTLET ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yuffie creates a blue light beneath all her opponents. A column of blue light bursts upward, hitting every one for special dmaage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/2: DOOM OF THE LIVING ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The screen turns blue as Yuffie leaps from enemy to enemy, striking for a total of 15 hits. With each hit, purple light flashes from her weapon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B4/1: ALL CREATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yuffie creates a swirling circular mass of red, purple, and white light. Out of it fires a large beam of white light that damages all enemies for special damage. ========= Cait Sith ========= ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: DICE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cait's stuffed moogle throws several dice to the ground. The score that is rolled determines how much damage the targeted enemy will receive. Paul Arezina has this to say about using the 'Dice' limit break: "Cait Sith throws more dice as his level rises, and the damage dealt is equal to the score on the dice times 100. But wait, there's more. If you get a double among the dice, the total amount of damage is doubled. Same goes for higher numbers: if you get a triple on the dice the total damage is tripled, and if four or five match... fear Cait Sith rolling five 6's." ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: SLOTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A slot machine appears. Depending on what you pick, a different result will occur, although sometimes you'll get a pre-set pattern of slots no matter what: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - 3 bars ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Cait Sith randomly calls upon a summoned monster. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - TOY SOLDIER 3 crowns ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Six toy soldiers appear and fire at all enemies for special damage. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - MOOGLE DANCE 3 stars ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A moogle (from the 'Summon Chocobo & Moguri' spell) appears and does a dance that completely restores each members' HP and MP. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - LUCKY GIRL 3 hearts ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A cat-girl appears and all allies make critical hits for the remainder of the battle. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - COMBINE 3 moogles ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Cait's allies disappear and his moogle grows twice as large, gaining 9999 HP and 999 MP. In this form, he can do anything but use Limit Breaks, and his attacks cause more damage. When the battle is over, everyone's current HP and MP drop to 1/3rd their former amount. He can't use this ability if there are less than 3 allies. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - GAME OVER 3 faces ---------------------------------------------------------------------- All enemies facing you are instantly killed. This ALWAYS works against any enemy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - DEATH JOKER face, face, bar ---------------------------------------------------------------------- All allies are instantly killed. There's no way to avoid this, even with the help of accessories like the Safety Bit or an Enemy Skill such as Death Force. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - TOY BOX any other combination ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A random object is dropped on one enemy, inflicting physical damage. It can be a Hell House, Huge Chocobo, Magic Hammer, icicles, a boulder, or a Comet 2-like meteor attack. Just like when you attack normally, it's possible to hit for extra damage (like making a critical hit attack). ================== Vincent Valentine* ================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: GALIAN BEAST ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vincent alters his form and becomes a horned, purple monster. - Vincent claws and bites one opponent. - Vincent throws golden orbs at all foes that hit for ice/lightning damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: DEATH GIGAS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This Morph changes Vincent into a Frankenstein's Monster. - Vincent jumps and punches one enemy. - Vincent pounds his chest and fires electricity at all enemies, which strikes for lightning damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/1: HELLMASKER ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vincent transforms into a Jason look-alike, complete with chainsaw and hockey mask. - Vincent attacks 5 times with his saw. - A poison gas with skulls flying out of it appears and afflicts an enemy with Silence, Sleepel, and Toad ailments in addition to causing poison damage and Confusion. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B4/1: CHAOS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vincent turns into a skull-faced demon with bat wings. - CHAOS SABER Vincent slashes all foes with his wings. - SATAN SLAM The ground rises in the shape of a skull and it's eyes flash, causing an instant death attack. The survivors are attacked by orange skulls that hit for special damage. * At the start of any of Vincent's Limit Breaks, his HP is doubled and is filled up to it's maximum amount. It returns to normal afterwards. Also, Vincent can still be affected by status changes while in another form (such as Minimum or Poison). While transformed, Vincent is uncontrollable and will randomly perform one of his form's two attacks when his Time bar is maxed out. ========== Cid Hiwind ========== ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: BOOST JUMP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cid performs a diving slash to one enemy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/2: DYNAMITE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using his cigarette, Cid lights a stick of dynamite and tosses it at his enemies, causing a damaging explosion. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/1: HYPER JUMP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cid spins into the sky and drives his weapon into the ground, which is covered in a blue light. Upon pulling it out, all enemies are damaged. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B2/2: DRAGON ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A serpent-like dragon flies from behind Cloud and encircles one enemy before flying away. HP and MP stolen from the target are given to Cid. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/1: DRAGON DIVE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cid leaps in the air and comes down with his weapon 6 times, creating a column of multi-colored energy each time he lands that causes damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B3/2: BIG BRAWL ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cid pokes and impales opponents with his weapon 8 times while dust rises around him. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B4/1: HIGHWIND ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cid calls down a barrage of missiles (from the Highwind, I guess?) to strike all enemies repeatedly. =========== YOUNG CLOUD =========== ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Doesn't really exist; it's just a name (Cait's B1/1, in fact) ========= SEPHIROTH ========= ------------------------------------------------------------------------- B1/1: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Doesn't really exist; it's just a name (Vincent's B1/1, in fact) NOTES - Words in CAPS are the translated name. - Words in ( ) are the English name (from the FF7 demo disk). - Words in < > are the guessed English name. - 'x' means that I don't know the character and couldn't translate it. - 'Physical' is damage caused by your weapon which you can lessen using Barrier. 'Elemental' is element damage (fire, ice, lightning, etc.) that you can lessen using accessories and to which some enemies are immune. 'Special' damage is from an attack that can't be defended against/avoided by any means short of invincibility. - Yes, I used the GameShark to see Young Cloud and Sephiroth's Breaks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 8 u l t i m a t e w e a p o n s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Truly the best in offensive weaponry, the Ultimate Weapons can make mincemeat out of even the strongest opponent (like there are any :)). Ultimate weapons have zero Materia growth, but have eight holders, and every two holders are linked. When using the 'Morph' materia, the amount of damage inflicted drops to 1/8th, but with an Ultimate Weapon, the amount only drops to 1/3rd. There are also special ways to increase the amount of damage these weapons do. The only exception is Aeris' Ultimate Weapon, which has seven holders and can gain AP. The Ultimate Weapons are: Cloud Strife's 'Ultima Weapon': * Kill the Ultimate Weapon during Disc 2 or 3 to get the Ultima Weapon. This weapon does damage based on the (lack of) difference between Cloud's current HP and maximum HP. In other words, the fuller your life is, the more damage you do. Note that this isn't similar to the way the Atma Weapon worked in FF3. Barret Wallace's 'Missing Score': * Stick Barett in your party while climbing up the stairs to the Mako Cannon during the raid on Midgar during Disc 2. If Barett's in your party, a chest will be visible on one of the landings that contains his Ultimate Weapon. To empower Barett's weapon, attach materia to it that have lots of AP (such as mastered materia). Tifa Lockheart's 'Premium Heart': * Get the Sector 5 Key and return to Midgar during Disc 2 or 3. Go to the Wall Market and enter the building labled "Item". Examine the computer and you'll get her weapon. During a battle, Tifa's weapon does more damage the closer she gets to maxing her Limit Break. If she does a Limit Break and misses one of the slots, the weapon's power will momentarily increase, then lessen. Aeris Gainsborough's 'Princess Guard': * While exploring the Ancient Temple during Disc 1, open the chest in one of the corridors connected to the clock puzzle room in order to get the Princess Guard. If her allies are in critical condition or are killed, the power of her weapon shoots up. Red XIII's 'Limited Moon': * Prior to the raid on Midgar City in Disc 2, or during any time in Disc 3, go to Cosmo Canyon with Red XIII in you party. Bugen Hagen will give him his Ultimate Weapon before dying. The Limited Moon does more damage depending on how much current MP Red has, just like how the Ultima Weapon's ability to inflict damage depends on Cloud's current HP to maximum HP. Yuffie Kisaragi's 'Conformer': * Her Ultimate Weapon is found in one of the chests in the wrecked Shinra plane that's lying on the sea floor. When fighting enemies, if they are of a level higher than Yuffie's, she does more damage per hit. Cait Sith's 'HP Shout': * Found in the back row of lockers on Floor 64 of the Shinra HQ, during the raid on Midgar City in Disc 2. Just like the Ultima Weapon, Cait does more damage depending on how close his current HP is to his maximum HP. Vincent Valentine's 'Death Penalty': * Put Vincent in your party and visit Lucresia during Disc 2 or 3; she's in the Waterfall Cavern on the Western Continent and you can get there using a Green Chocobo or the submarine. You should go here as soon as you're able to. Then, visit Lucresia again at a later point, and you'll find the Death Penalty and his Chaos Manual lying in the cavern. The Death Penalty's power raises in proportion to how many enemies Vincent has killed since joining your group. Cid Highwind's 'Venus Gospel': * After the Rocket Huge Materia Quest, return to Rocket Town. Talk to the old man who gave Cloud the Yukiyoshi. Chat with him repeatedly and he'll produce the Venus Gospel for Cid. Like Red's Limited Moon, the amount of damage this weapon does depends on how close Cid's current MP is to his maximum MP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 9 i t e m s a n d e q u i p m e n t ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This section contains a list of all the items, weapons, bracelets, and accessories in the game.

SEPHIROTH - KATANA _____________________________________________________ Masamune 99 255 6c - The materia description acts as if this item has no holders. You can only get this weapon by using the Item Select GS code (look elsewhere in the FAQ for details). It appears with a handgun icon, as if it were a weapon for Vincent, but he cannot equip it. Equipping it on Sephiroth is kinda useless since he already has one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- BRACELET NAME DEF EVD MDF MEV HOLDERS AP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bronze Bangle 8 0 0 0 none Iron Bangle 10 0 2 0 1s Titan Bangle 14 2 4 0 2s Mythril Armlet 18 3 8 0 2c Carbon Bangle 27 3 14 0 2c/1s Silver Armlet 34 4 22 0 2c/2s Gold Armlet 46 4 28 0 4c Diamond Bangle 57 6 37 0 4c/1s Crystal Bangle 70 8 45 1 6c Platinum Bangle 20 0 12 0 2s APx2 Rune Armlet 43 5 24 0 4s APx2 Edincoat 50 0 33 0 7s Wizard Bracelet 6 3 85 3 8c Adaman Bangle 93 0 23 0 2c Gigas Armlet 59 0 0 0 4c/1s APx0 Imperial Guard 82 0 74 0 6c Aegis Armlet 55 15 86 50 4c Fourth Brace 74 3 100 3 4c/1s Warrior Bangle 96 0 21 0 4c APx0 Shinra Beta 30 0 0 0 2c/2s Shinra Alpha 77 0 34 0 6c Four Slotss 12 0 10 0 4s Fire Bracelet 72 8 52 3 4c Aurora Armlet 76 8 54 3 4c Bolt Bracelet 74 8 55 3 4c Dragon Armlet 58 3 47 2 6c Minerva Band 60 8 57 0 6c Escort Guard 62 5 55 0 6c Mystile 65 50 72 60 6c Zeidrich 100 15 98 18 none Precious Watch 0 0 0 0 8s Choco Bracelet 35 10 38 10 4s Fire Armlet - Absorb fire-based attacks.

Please keep the following notation in mind: Bracelet - a bracelet anyone can wear. 'd' means 'Defense Power' and the number afterwards shows what your defense power will be changed to if this bracelet is equipped. Next to that is a number and a letter; this indicates the number of Materia holders and whether they are single (s), or combined (c). Weapon - a weapon. The name next to it indicates who can wield it. 'a' means 'Attack Power' and the number afterwards shows what your attack power will be changed to if this weapon is carried. Next to that is a number and a letter; this indicates the number of Materia holders and whether they are single (s), or combined (c). 'None' means that that weapon has no Materia holders. All the statistics below apply to all three discs. If the goods for sale or prices change from one disc to the next, then it will say '(location) - DISC #' afterwards, which is why a location may be listed more than once.

PLEASE NOTE! This section was based on a document written by someone from the Final Fantasy 7 Database Index (sp?) All I did was translate it into English and alphabetize it. I can't answer questions about this section because I haven't fully verified everything yet. If you didn't catch that the first time, proper credit goes to whoever wrote this. If you know the URL of the Final Fantasy 7 Database Index (?), or the name of the person who wrote the original file, please let me know so I can give them proper credit. Thanks to WhisQ for rewriting the list! Aside from the SOLDIER classes, names that are capitalized indicate monsters who's stats WhisQ isn't sure of. Oh, and please refer to Part One of the FAQ for info on the Diamond, Ruby, and Emerald weapons. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- NUMBERS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st Ray LV: ??

FYI, the Underwater materia has been made into a real item (it's purpose is not to revive Aeris), and Baakusa, for those of you who didn't know yet, is not a name, but is 'Boxer' spelled in katakana. In the Japanese version of FF7 at least, you could see Baakusa's face on the memory save files if you kept saving and then checking your PSX's memory. I don't know if it is still possible in this version, though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 . 1 3 t h e d o c u m e n t s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here are the documents the 'Rumors and Speculaton' section was based upon (it was also based upon personal experience, use of GS codes, and newsgroup discussions, particularly in alt.games.final-fantasy).

Anybody who sends me information that I don't already have (and can use in the FAQ) is given credit in the Special Thanks section. If I come across some information that I'd like to use, I'll e-mail that person and ask for permission. However, if I don't get a response, then I'll use it anyway. So if you see your work up here and it says 'taken without permission' that means that I've already e-mailed you asking if I could use it. I'm not trying to disrespect contributors, though, and if this happens to you and you have a problem with it, drop me a line...no offense is intended. Also, if anyone in this section doesn't want their e-mail address or URL shown, drop me a line and I'll gladly change it in the next update. THE IDIOT LIST Here we go, folks! It's version 2 of the 'Idiot List' (which first appeared in my Japanese FF7 FAQ. I'm happy to say that it's caught on and several other FAQ writers are now using it in their FAQs, too). The following people are idiots: - Raymond Heng This guy wrote a GameShark codes FAQ with various people's copied codes in it (including Jeff Wong's, a fellow contributor). What's worse is that he not only rips my Item and Materia Select codes, but then goes on to say how long it took him to make them, etc. If so why do those codes have the _exact_ same format and spelling mistakes as my codes? He then says that he got the names out of Versus Books' guide...yeah, sure. The only thing that doesn't make sense is that if he's testing out the codes as he makes them (he had to, to get the variables) why not use the names that are in the game? That question answers itself! - MadCow (Jeremy Sherman) This idiot ripped my FAQ and turned it into a PAGE. Yes, I'm absolutely serious, he made an entire web page based on a cut-up version of my FAQ, and not only omitted my name but the list of contributors! This is the same person who e-mailed me and asked me to join his web ring. Which brings me to my next point: Please DON'T join the FINAL FANTASY HEAVEN WEB RING!!!! It was not only created by this MadCow fellow, but he's been distributing the ripped version of my FAQ to other people (Thanks "Vincent" for coming clean and also boycotting this web ring!) Please, folks, there are plenty of worthy web rings out there. If you're part of this ring, please get off it and join another one. - Game Cave I'm looking at the e-mail right now in which one of the head workers at the Die Hard Gamer's Clu...I mean, "Game Cave" says that 'if people paid a little extra, they could get our translations...and your guide as a bonus'. He's apparently under the impression that since people were not paying for my guide directly, it doesn't mean that he's using it for promotional purposes. But they can't get it unless they pay for the translations, right? This guy also tried to bribe me, but that's another story. Remember folks, this is a COMPANY I'm talking about, not some 'Net low-life. Please don't buy from this company, as there are better mail-order places out there (sadly, CGN is going out of business, but NCS also comes to mind; check it out at www.ncsx.com) - Mark What, are you going to submit my FAQ piece by piece to Sega Sages? At least take the time to find out the English names instead of using my untranslated info. You even wrote it in all caps (URA)! Just like my FAQ, gee...it makes you wonder. - Lord Gares Used my stuff after carefully cutting out my name...so what else is new? Someone e-mailed him about it, and he responded by saying that he was 'wondering if anyone would notice'. Well, I did, so here you are in the Idiot List along with all the others. On a related note, this guy has a web ring called the LORD GARES WEB RING, which I urge you not to join, for the obvious reason that he's yet another FAQ-ripper. If you violate my disclaimer and I have ample evidence, you WILL be added to this list, no questions asked. Feel free to prove your innocence (no one's bothered to complain to me yet except for Game Cave, but they're an exception because of the circumstances mentioned above), by e-mailing me, otherwise, hey, you asked for it. I don't consider myself to be a malicious person but I do not write FAQs so that they can be abused. ========================================================================= 1 1 . A U T H O R ' S N O T E ========================================================================= Whew! Here you are at the end of yet _another_ FAQ. I must say, FF7 is getting a little boring at this point :) In all seriousness, I hope you enjoyed the FAQ and found it useful. Questions, corrections, comments, flames, and blank checks can be e-mailed to me via: . You can also see this FAQ and other good stuff at: www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Pagoda/4610/ Which is my own homepage (I finally have one)! Much thanks to Charles Mac Donald for hosting all my FAQs (including this one) in the past at his own formerly space-deprived site which I suggest you visit if you are interested in computer programming, the Yaroze, or the demo scene. Assuming it was an isolated incident, I didn't bother writing about it, but now it's serious and I can't ignore it. This FAQ has been reprinted in three magazines the UK so far. To Sean Atkins and the FutureNet staff: giving me credit is one thing, but your use of my FAQ is still a profitable purpose. I hope you'll keep this disclaimer in mind and treat me with a little more courtesy next time instead of letting me discover that FutureNet's published my FAQ twice in two different magazines. If you didn't have the time to e-mail about the first printing, you could have at least told me about the FAQ appearing in the newest publication by FutureNet. To the third magazine, again, please take note of the new disclaimer. Furthermore, this FAQ is copyrighted so I hope you'll also keep that in mind before printing it. I cannot express my disgust towards these people for using my FAQ simply to increase their sales. I did this because I wanted to help others, and I didn't plan this FAQ back in February just so it could be used shamelessly by people who should be responsible adults. To everyone who has informed me of a site, magazine, etc. that has used my FAQ without my permission, I thank you, and I hope you'll continue to keep me informed in the future.
