Final Fantasy 7

Written by Kelvin Leen (E-mail: billykane@mindless.com)

Intro notes :
This is the first FAQ I wrote for a Final Fantasy game. I have only written 
2 so far,one being this and the other a Real Bout Fatal Fury Game Boy guide. 
As far as I'm concern getting updates on infomation from other gamers is 
important in any aspects of gaming,which I hope to receive for this FAQ.

Most importantly, I would respect people to give me some credit for writing 
and not claiming themselves unless they have contributed to an update of info, 
which I have to know too.
Otherwise, please leave the FAQ unchanged.

Differences in the PS & PC versions :

There isn't much differences in the 2 versions, except the gameplay which is tougher for
the PC. I understand that the PC version isn't as popular to gamers in my homeland (S'pore),
because many have gotten the chance to beat the PS version. However, this version is the
Japanese's International version, the version with all the extra cinemas, less bugs, new
monsters and bosses - for those who don't know.

This FAQ is written because I feel that people need to know a thing or to ease their trip to
finish the game. Tips and other clues are given, so this is a little bit of a spoiler.

Oh yeah, one reason I would think led to the unpopularity in the game is the tendency to
CHEAT. I did, but not without making life diffcult for myself, however, I did not find ways
(like PS players) to bring the beautiful Aerith back to life ! No way .. she's gone I'll
keep it that way ! ALWAYS !

There are parts that require you reset if you did something wrong. Heck if you can, hit
ALT-F4 or ALT-Q if you saved beforehand and want to quit and reset. 

Anyhow, here are the hints for the game :-

-To buy flowers from Aerith, choose the 2nd option when you first meet her at Midgar. It's
cheap to buy one, later giving it to Tifa or Barret's daughter is your choice. (No, Tifa
will not be angry or jealous.)

-When cornered by the soldiers at the bridge, fight them all unless you are short of HPs. It
adds count to your number of kills for your 2nd level limit break.

-At the train ride to the next reactor to wreck, remember that talking to some of the
commuters inside will grant your party items (Potions ... etc)

-After escaping the train, keep going to the foreground will land you in the hands of a lot
of Shinra baddies, which can help increase your EXP points. Do it at your own risk.

-When you meet Aerith at the church, do treat her nicely.

-Near Aerith's house at the Garden is a COVER materia. It's free so take it !

-Sneaking out ? Walk, don't run or else Aerith will know.

-Don't forget that one of the homes near Aerith's house is a house with a TURTLE'S
PARADISE FLYER. It's on the 2nd floor on the wall near the stairs. (The 1st floor has a
boy watching TV.)

-When you get to the Area 6 (Red light district), you need to get a lot of items before
getting to Tifa. Below are the things you'll need to do - they may or may not work.

1. Enquire about Tifa at the brothel at the Southeastern part of town.
2. Go to the top of the town to Don Corneo's mansion to learn that Cloud has to dress as
   a woman.
3. Go to the dress shop and go get the kid's father back from a bar near the mansion.
4. Answer carefully about your preferences for the dress. He will then make it.
5. After trying out the dress, go to the gym and win at the squats minigame.
6. Go to a sushi bar lookalike bar and order the today's special. Say it taste great
   and get a coupon.
7. Trade the coupon for some laxatives at one of the buildings. (Man behind counter)
8. Go to the bar where you found the dress-maker. Go to the top room and give your
   medicine - after a while, you'll get a perfume.
9. Go to the brothel and talk to the guard at the entrance.
10.Exit the screen and talk everyone you see. you should get a membership card from a
   man.
11.Go to the shop near the save point. You ought to help the shop owner in getting an
   item from the inn. Stay at the inn and get the most expensive item from the machine.
   (I think it's a condom.)
12.Trade and get another key-item. (Forgot what it was...)
13.There is also another item found at the brothel. Enter and find it, return to the dress
   shop to change up. After that, head straight for the mansion. If you found everything,
   BE PREPARED TO BE DISGUSTED !!!!

-While inside the sewers, after fighting APS boss, remember to get the STEAL materia lying
nearby.

-At the train graveyard, when you encounter an ememy (Ghost rider is it's name I think.)
steal from it ! The item is a staff which is only available after you leave Midgar !

-If you got the time & guts, try training for anybody's limit breaks at the train graveyard.

-When fighting Reno, any allies pyramided in his attacks should be attacked by anyone else,
to free them. If all 3 are hit by the condition, the party's dead.

-When you are climbing up the mess to the Shinra HQ, you can pick up items if you explore
with care.

-At Shinra HQ, do save the game whenever you can. My advice is to go fight up to the 60th
floor, it helps make your party stronger.

-At the back of the 1st floor, you can find the 2nd TURTLE's PARADISE FLYER at the board.

-On the 2nd floor, there is a shop that has 2 chest that can be opened. You can only do so,
at Disc 2 .... Don't forget to watch the Shinra product video after the couple leaves
the shop.

-Just keep fighting the guards at 60th storey if you aren't fed up of getting scolded by
Barret. There is a fixed amount ... beyond that then there will be none.

-Before heading off to the 62th storey, return to level 1 to save. At the 62th floor, the
man will ask you to guess the answer. Get it in one try, if you can you'll get an ELEMENTAL
materia will is useful at this point. If you fail but save your game, try again until you
can get it right. (ANSWER IS RANDOM FOR EVERY NEW GAME.) 

-63th Storey slove - From where you encounter the computer, go to the top right side of the
room. You will open one door, walk through and open the door nearest the center room, you
will then get into the left-most room already. Take the bag, and climb the Airduct to the
the right-most room to collect another bag. Exit the room and open the door to the center
room to get the last bag. Use the airduct in the right-most room to get back to the computer
and get everything. Easy ?

-Make a very early mental note that if you return during DISC2 on this floor hides Cait Sith's
ultimate weapon, at the locker area. (Cloud should say "It's not mine." at this point.)

-At the exercise room, don't dunk 200 gil for a drink, you'll be cheated. Come back at Disc 2
and get source items.

-On 65th storey and later levels, you might meet 2 ememies that are important to you.
One is a machine with a lot of blades at the bottom - steal Carbon Bangles from it ! The other
enemy you ought to steal from is the enemy solder with a blade (Those who can cast level 2 (eg.ICE2)
spells), you'll get HARDEDGE swords from them. Cloud's weapon upgrade at Shinra HQ is VERY useful.

-When fighting the boss at different platforms, REDXIII's limit break will still hit the boss. Have
Barret in your party for a much easier fight.

-At the motorcycle minigame, keep going after those closer to the pickup. Minimize the damage done.

-Outside Midgar, pick your 1st enemy skill - MATRA MAGIC from the Custom sweepers enemies. Wait for
them to cast it and you to learn it (Equip anyone with the ENEMY SKILL MATERIA first!) Anyhow, steal
from the Custom Sweepers. They will grant access to ATOMIC SCISSORS, a weapon for Barret.

-At Kalm's inn, at the 2nd floor is a MEGAEIXLIR that can be found near the stairs. Reach for it 5
times and you'll get it.

-During the flash back, you ought to touch Tifa's cupboard and table for strange things.

-Playing with the piano will reap results, but not the Elemental or Final Heaven manual as yet.

-Explore cupboards, doors under stairs carefully for many items in Kalm. Enjoy !

-At the Chocobo farm, remeber to talk to the Chocobo nearest to the fence for a MOG materia !

-Even with a Chocobo, you still will encounter the Midgar Zolom if you stand around. (IDIOT.)

-At the Mithril mines, at the room to the right, there is a LONG RANGE materia. Be prepare to be
fed up in trying to reach it. You can only climb the vines up to reach it a certain odd angle.

-At the mines, steal from the enemy swing a ball and chain for GRAND GLOVE, a weapon for
Tifa.

-To increase the kill rate, use Matra Magic to blast your foes dead. Use it when large groups
attack your party.

-At the forested areas near the exit/entrance of the mine, beware of the blue colored birds.
Their attacks reap heavy damage but they give a BOOMERANG when you steal, a weapon for
Secret Character Yuffie.

-At this point there are 3 things to do. Get Yuffie, go either Junon or Fort Condor. Save
Junon for the last one and get Yuffie first.

-At Junon, save the little girl's life by letting your lungs fill up with air completely for
about 4-6 times.

-To jump up to the next level, swim near the pole and blow the whistle for the girl's pet to
jump you up there. Keep trying, it ain't tough.

-When you are learning the marching steps, it's easy at first but when you march with the
group later, it's really tough. Don't worry though, the ratings rarely go up fast unless,
you are really good at it. (I love it when you flop like hell.)

-Later at the send off part, keep your results to an average and you'll get a HP-PLUS materia
from Rufus. Do any better, you'll get a FORCE STEALER for Cloud. (Getting the HP-PLUS is better
then the weapon.)

-When you're inside the ship, talk to EVERY person you see ! If not you won't find Barret.

-At Costa Del Sol, go and head for the beach at once. See Hojo there and chat with him. Do
not sleep at the inn first or else he's gine the next day.

-Can you afford a house ? You can buy the house at the bridge area for 300,000 gil. I like
this idea.

-Going on the mountain path to Corel, at the Mako reactor area, you'll fight turtle-like
creatures. Steal from them DIAMOND PIN which is for REDXIII.

-At the track area, Save the game and switch back to Windows. There, change your keyboard
Repeat speed to the maximium and then switch back to the game. Later when you allow yourself
to fall through the tracks, tapping either left or right and the OK button is much easier
with the repeat rate increased. You will mostly likely fall on the area with the treasure
hanging around. (Trust me, this worked for me.)

-Gold Saucer is an interesting place, but you have only some minigame available to play.
The motorcycle one is great for earning GPs, you'll get 10GP for 10,000 points and above.
The first try you make in getting 10,000 and above score earns you 10GPs and a spd source.

-Always remember, buy the ticket that allows unlimited entering.

-At the bottom of the prison, when you face an enemy with a lot of spikes, use Cait Sith's
MANIPULATE materia to control and use the skill "LASER" on your party member with the 
enemy skill materia. (If you explored hard, you should have two. One is from Shinra HQ and
the other is at Junon.) This step is important.

-If you have managed to earn Barret's 3 level 2nd choice Limit break before fighting Dyne,
then use it here. Once it's all it takes to kill Dyne.

-Don't take chances with the thieves you fight in the prison. They might escape with your
items, which may include your weapons !

-When racing Chocobos, don't forget that there's a Materia lying around the room before
you race. Switching to Auto is useful, after your Chocobo overtakes the others by much
distance, switch to manual and race all the way !

-You lose the race too often ? The computer will then let you win after much trying.

-The area around Corel and the desert of Gold Saucer has a type of dragon foe who has
an attack named "Flying Sickle" that rises one's limit gauge quite fast & causes
quite bad damage to weaker character. Have one character hold the MANIPULATE materia
to control these beast and use the Sickle attack on your own party members. This is to
allow your party to train in their limit breaks. Just note that even at stronger levels
the attack still does a sum of damage ... so if you wish to, you can come back and train
later. 

-The buggie you get can be transported to and fro from Jumon & Costa Del Sol! Just
drive into the city and pay the fee to go across, and then exit. The buggie is for your
useage later !

-Using the above method, drive beyond the forested area between Mithril mines and Junon
through a river and get to a cave on the other end. If you have fought (in terms of normal
combat) enough times to make your last 2 digits same - (E.g. 12011) you will get Mythril.
This will grant you the Great Gospel, the Limit break for Aerith later at a house near
the Gongaga area. (After the Rocket town part)

-Don't forget to bring Tifa along to Gongaga area. She's the key person to one family's
question. Also down forget to visit the ruin reactor to get Titan Materia.

-Go to Cosmo Canyon, or rather you can only stop at Cosmo Canyon. The buggie cannot go
beyond there, as it breaks down.

-You'll see 2 TURTLE PARADISE FLYERS here, one's at the inn counter and the weapon's
store counter.

-Ready your MANIPULATE AND ENEMY SKILL MATERIAS here. The cave of GI scene will have
tough foes, with a useful ENEMY SKILL to learn. Also don't forget, that you have to walk
on the slimy ground in one part of the cave. Running will send you to the wall spikes.

-If anyone is dead, ramming into the spikes will bring them back to life, with one HP.

-The spider sub-bosses are all tough. Ready your limit breaks if you must.

-Getting to Nibelheim, you will meet all sorts of black robed figures. You can get items
from them.

-Don't worry about the way people react. Your recollections at Kalm are right. Just go
to Tifa's house and read a report on her dressing table for further evil details.

-The "Piano tunes" is a pain in the ass. I sloved it any it might not get the Final Heaven
limit break manual, so try again. For the PC version (Using the default keys) the tune is:

Cancel  Switch  Menu  Pageup+Menu  Pageup+Switch  Cancel  Switch  Menu  Pageup+cancel
OK  Cancel  Switch  Cancel  Start

There are 4 effects : Get 1 gil, Get Elemental Materia, Get nothing, Get Manual

-Inside the Shinra mansion, slove the Safe part by turning to :-
1) Turn to your right until it says 36, press OK
2) Turn left till it says 10, press OK
3) Turn to your right to 59, press OK
4) Turn to your right to 97, and press hit OK

Just do the following to get the door unlocked. Plain and simple, just follow !

-There are enemies that are Scales inside the Mansion. You can learn the ???? enemy skill
from them, so arm the Enemy Skill materias. (Cannot be manupilated)

-Vincient can be found at the corridor to the libary. Just move up and you find a small
room with coffins inside.

-Get to the caverns and the first thing is to activate the ladder, not go into any pipes
first. Once you can keep going up and down the room, then slide through the pipes to get
items.

-Leave the place by the only unblocked exit at the cave, explore the area until you get
to the reactor. There is a small door at the background. Hit ASSIST button to see it.
Exploring will get you a CR SNIPER & ELEMENTAL MATERIA. CR SNIPER is for Vincient.

-CR Sniper is useful for a trick I've learned. It's attack percentage is 255%, which means
it's virtually impossible to miss any shot, Link the DEATHBLOW materia and cause HEAVY
damage. However, CR Sniper is only useful for several stages ... weak later on.

-Do not bring Vincient along to fight the boss blocking your way, especially with his
limit breaks. His Gillian Beast's flare will cure the boss.

-You have to learn TRINE from the boss, as this spell is only available on 3 enemies,
one of it is this one. Equip Lighthing materia with elemental materia on your armour
to recover lost HP during TRINE. (Better have 2 enemy skil materia ready here !)

-Getting to Rocket town, talk to the old man staring at the rocket for a blade for Cloud.
(Keep talking to him.)

-Rocket town's boss is Palmer, the fat Shinra Space division officer. If you use ODIN
summon on him, you can die laughing at the attacks made on him ! (I love it when he loses.)

-It's been known that for lower performance machines, that the escape scene from Rocket
town is know to hang the game application very easily. Please safe before entering the
town. Your best bet to spot the error is to see a Shinra soldier firing on the plane itself.
After that, it just hangs.

-If you brought Yuffie along, when the plane crashed into the sea, she will imply going
west. Following her instructions will lead you to her hometown of Wutai, and also to the
reveling of her true identity. Remember this, once you get here, you must complete the
subquest or else you can't leave the island.

-At western island, there are several bridges for the player to cross. There is a path that
leads you to nowhere. The other leads you to Wutai.

-The Razor Weeds around Wutai have a very important and useful Enemy Skill, Magic Hammer.
The beach area has a Turtle that has the Death force Enemy Skill. Stral from it an item
as well - Adaman Bangle. This item may have few materia slots, but it can be sold for a
fair amount of cash.

-The first thing you should do when in Wutai is head to the western most building at the
city area, to a place where you'll meet up with the Turks, who are taking a break. Make sure
you get this done first, before meeting up with Yuffie.

-Upon getting to Wutai, look around and talk to everyone. You will get to meet Yuffie if
you manage to open the box at the Item shop. She will appear and snatch your materia away.
After that, go the house nearest the entrance. She's hiding behind a board, so search there
and then she will hide in a huge container outside the Turtle's Paradise Tavern. The
container will shake as a clue. Hit it twice and she'll be caught.

-Once at her house, pulling either of the controls will still result in trapping your
party. Outside that room on the wall is another (Final) Turtle Paradise Flyer.

-After this part, go to the Turtle Paradise and read their signboard. After that enter
the tavern and meet up with the Turks. After all this, go to the counter and talk to the
man. If you got to find all the flyers, you'll be rewarded.

-At the western area, there are 3 places to visit. Go to the bell and hit it once. A door
opens below it, go in and meet a friend who's taken Yuffie & Elena (Turk) as hostages.
Once you can access to the Mansion do search around the whole house for secret passageways
that will grant you the Magic Shuriken & Hairpin.

-Go up the Da-Chao Statues now, Reno & Rude will guide you on the right path to take.
If you manage to find a cave hole, enter to get Cid's Dragoon Lance. After that, you'll
meet up with your "friend" again. Fight a sub-boss here and after all this, Yuffie will
return your party's Materia again. She screws up during the distribution of the materia,
and that's quite funny. Before leaving, under her house is room with a lot of cats. Walk
straight and talk to the cat. It leaves and you'll climb up to get a HP ABSORB materia.

-If you trained well, you can visit the Pagoda at the very western end of Wutai. Fight your
way up and at the final level you'll face off with Yuffie's papa, Godo. He also uses TRINE
eneemy skill, so you can learn from him. During this whole time, you should equip strong
defensive equipment and use a Hyper on yourself to be able to increase the limit gauge
faster. If you win, you'll get Yuffie's limit break, as well as another summoning materia.

-To get a keystone for the Ancient Ruins, go to the house near the Gongaga area to get
infomation on the Keystone. The house is situated at the far east of Gongaga area near the
coast area. 

-Return to Golden Saucer to fight in the BATTLE ARENA fro Dio's amusument any amount (up
to 8 matches.) to get the Keystone for the TEMPLE OF ANCIENTS. Be careful !

-Oh yeah, if you've got Mythril at this point, you can trade for the Great Gospel, the
4th level limit break for Aerith.

-When Aerith dates you, screwing up on the stage act will result in Aerith slapping you,
perform well and get a good laugh, but screwing up provides a better one.

-When you're inside the Ghost Inn room, check for an item in the cupboard.

-At the ground floor of the Ghost Inn, check at/near the shop for another Turtle Paradise
Flyer.

-Going to the Ancient Ruins ? Better have a good party as the enemies are quite a challenge
for some or weaker parties. If you used Vincient's CR Sniper trick, it should ease the way
for many.

-Remember that everything here can be collected. Just keep walking and you'll find a path
somewhere. Only 2 spots can be acessed at the clock room.

-At the second part of the maze, where strange pillars roll down onto you, just keep
pressing on. You'll make it at the end.

-At the clock room, treasure chest with monsters inside do not offer any items for you.

-At the clock room, you can fall into the bottom of the room, to get Nail Bat, a strong
weapon with no material slots for Cloud.

-At the 4th hour of the clock, you can get Princess Guard, the only Ultimate weapon for
Aerith.

-When you get to room of holes, if the impish fella go into the hole at the right bottom
most hole, the only way to counter it is to what for it at the hole next to the sealed door.

-When fighthing the Red Dragon boss, just wear or equip fire protective equipment.

-When your party reaches the clock room, DISEQUIP Aerith at once. Strap her with any lousy
armour or staff, don't give her any accessories as well. This is ... after this part, she
is out of the them forever. You can always use her Limit breaks during the boss fight
later, snice she takes more damage and increases her gauge faster.

-When you visit the bone village, remeber that you'll never make it to the end of the
forest without the Lunar Harp. Just dig around the lower left hand side of the skull
head tent.

-At the forest, wait either at the left or right hand side to collect a materia floating
in the air. The red ord floating around is what you want.

-At the shell village, you'll get another enemy skill materia at one of the rooms,
the one where you can rest. It's around the bed furthest from the ladder.

-Look carefully, for there are some items to be taken.

-Equip your party with water protection equipment. After Aerith dies, the Jenova boss
uses Aqualung and many water spells to attack.

-Follow your way out of the place, and get to Glacier Lodge village, the original hometown
of Aerith.

-At one of the houses, you can get the Glacier map, some items and info. Visit every
house in the village for infomation and many other things.

-When Elena wants to slap Cloud .... just keep tapping Left as she readies to hit you.
She'll then tumble down the snow. Get the snowboard from the injured kid's house and ride
your way into the snow.

-At the snowy place, remember that being in the snow for too long if harmful to you.
Explore around until you faint. Remember that you can only get what you missed only at the
ending part of Disc 2 and the whole of Disc 3. Also, if you managed to make it to the southern
most part of map with a sign board, you can walk back to the village from here.

-When climbing up the mountain, remember to keep your body at 38 degrees before
climbing again.

-There are 2 puzzles to slove while inside the cave, one is getting a blouder to clear a path
and the other is breaking 4 stalacities to go on. Also, in the caves is a red colored spider
(Stilva) that has 2 Enemy skills to learn from. (Trine & Magic Breath)

-When facing the 2 headed sub-boss, steal a protect ring from it. The left head is easily
subjected to physical attacks while the other is subjected to magical attacks.

-At the crater you have to fight your way up. There are barriers to crossed. Just notice the
pattern, and cross with care. If you fail, dragons will attack you.

-Later at Junon, make your way to the Airport with Cait Sith and meet Yuffie there. On the
way you can fight some enemies, without proper care, you might lose. When Tifa tries to free
herself, you can press two buttons to combine a series of movement to escape. Press your button
to slap the Shinra Bitch. Please don't lose, it won't look nice for Tifa !!!

-When flying, flying pass the Gold Saucer desert is extermely dangerous. you might bumb into
a red color thing in the sand. It will release the Giant Ruby weapon to fight you !!

-Get to Mideel, at the small island towards the south-eastern corner of the world map. There
you'll find Cloud but he is in no condition to fight. Before entering the town, disequip
Tifa's materia if you need them, and have at least one of every Chocobo green. (I forgot which)
Find a white chocobo and scratch the the chocobo's ear. You will get a power magic materia,
Contain.

-There is a key up at the balcony and walking around the side of the house (The one that sell
accessories) and searching the ground. You'll find a key and use it on the door at the weapon
shop, and then be honest to the shopkeeper to get a Cursed Ring !

-Get the elixir from one house and be honest to the owner. (Honesty is the best policy here)

-After Tifa leaves the party to care for poor Cloud, Cid takes over the party. You cannot
do several things at places when Cid is the leader of the party (If you bought the villa at
Costa Del Sol, you cannot rest there.)

-Return to North Corel first (your choice) and do the train scene. You have to climb from
the mountain path to get to the Reactor, and then ride another train to chase it. You have
to quickly catch up with the train. Pull the controls quickly ! Only 10 mins to spare !!!

-Hope you brought Barret along, so that he can clear up his name at Corel, only if you
make it for this mission.

-Fight your way to the control car, on the way, try to steal from the Bird like machine,
Eagle Gun, as it grants you the Warrior Bangle. During any fight you should not cast any
summon magic as it takes to long for most of them to do damage.

-To stop the train, one clue which I think should work is to pull the controls upwards. If
you make it, then the cinema of a train stopping will be shown. After that, you should get
the ultima magic materia and also Barret's Final limit break from one black woman inside the
town.

-Go to the Condor Fort for yet another fight. My advice is to let the enemy get to your
fort and fight the commander. If I'm not wrong, you can get the Imperial Guard armour
that protects quite well. (I got mine from here.)

-After all this, return to Mideel to look for Cloud. Before entering Mideel, I advice your
party to change your materia on your armour so that an Earth Magic Materia is linked with
an ELEMENTAL MATERIA. Everyone should do this, and then enter the town. There will be an
earthquake and the party will see the Ultima Weapon flying around. Wait on it to fight your
party, the first attack it often (99% sure of it) is a Quake 2 spell !! Hope you took my
advice earlier. Steal a Curse Ring from it before it flies off.

-Inside the life stream part, just keep talking to all the different Clouds. You never know
which you have to speak to.

-The party with Cloud on the team will have to return to the Junon Port to go below to the
underwater reactor. You should talk to the guard guarding a big door at Junon and pay him
to access the upper levels of the base.

-When you make it to the underpass area, you have to fight your way down into the base below.
The guards here are still push-overs. When you get to the underwater tunnels, morph an enemy
known as the Ghost ship for an item that you can trade later at Kalm.

-When you meet up with Reno at the Submarine base, you will fight a horrible machine that
has two powerful arms to catch your party ! Once in it's grasp, your team-mates are in
danger. Your best bet is to equip yourself with powerful weapons with materia slots enough
to hold plenty of summons or magic materias. It's as easy as that, the boss is also weak
to Lighting spells, so you have a save bet to destroy it fast with your magics. Once you
win, you'll get the God's Hand, a 255% hit percentage weapon for Tifa. Equip this with
a DEATHBLOW materia for 100% deathblows !!! (A very important upgrade for the team from
here onwards)

-Don't forget the Leviathian scales in the box next to the submarine. Take your time to
search around, as this doesn't affect the headstart of the enemy submarine.

-I leave it to you whether to kill the Shinra guards, they will never put up a tough
fight, but leaving them alive shows you that those guys are acutally wimps.

-When you control the Submarine, your best bet is to get close to the enemy sub and blast
away ! Just pummel your torpedos away, and the sub will then sink. Get it in the first try,
as failure would meaning running through the bloody complex again, though I heard about a
shortcut that you can take to get to another submarine.

-Beware of the ocean's biggest object swimming around. You don't wanna die in it's hands,
although you can run from it.

-Use the submarine and locate the following things :-

*Sunken Plane near the coast of the Gold Saucer Desert (Near the only place at the Gold
 Saucer where your Submarine can park)

*An Ancient Key, located under the northern island. Just keep searching until you find a
 path that leads you into a cavern with a spiky object erected in the cave's center.

*The Sunken submarine, a red object nearby the Junon Sea reactor. (Beware of the emerald
 weapon, it swims around that area !!!)

*The cavern that leads you to the Waterfall. This is where you can get Vincient's ultimate
 weapon and 4 level limit break manual.

*Killing the Emerald Weapon that swims around the whole ocean.

Other than this, there is nothing in the ocean for you to explore.

THE SUNKEN PLANE SLOVE :-

Okay, for those people who are really in need of an adventure or training, then come
here. You'll collect some of the most important items for your party to enhance
themselves here, as well as the best training ground you'll have. (Until you get to the
ending of the game that is.)

The Hallway of this plane has a save point and a chest. Have Yuffie here (Useful character)
Save game before heading into any of the rooms.
The first room near the save point has got several items. Use the following
instructions to get them ALL !

Once you enter, Go straight to the chest on your TOP right hand corner.
Next walk back to the other VISIBLE CHEST near the stairs.
Go down, and walk all the way to the left, then go straight up. Search and get
the CONFORMER - the Ultimate weapon for Yuffie (You'll need it, trust me !)
From the spot you stand, go all the way to the right and move up all the way.
Search here and get the added cut materia !

Okay, go back and save. If you have survived, then how do you feel about the
baddies here ? Using the Conformer, you'll beat them all in seconds. Strap the
MORPH MATERIA WITH A HP ABSORB MATERIA and you'll beat them real flat !
Steal from them different armour and morph them into different enhancements
for your statisics !!!

You'll face off with Reno and Rude here, at the room on the Hallway's left.
They are both tough here, my advice is to rob them both of their items,
as they really are enhancements ! Reno carries Sephiroth's TOUGH RING, and
Rude carries a ZIEDRICH, a materia-less armour of SUPER defence !
In the next room, you guys will get Cid's 4th level manual as well as another
summon materia (Hades) here.

CHART FOR REFERENCE : THE ENEMY AND BONUSES
NAME		GIL (With Gil Plus Materia equipped)      MORPH         STOLEN
Unknown 1 -       10000                                POWER SOURCE    FIRE ARMLET
Unknown 2 -       20000                                GUARD SOURCE    AUROA ARMLET
Unknown 3 -       15000 			       MAGIC SOURCE    BOLT ARMLET
Serpent   -       5000    			       MIND SOURCE     WATER RING
Poodler   -       5000				       SPEED SOURCE    TURBO ETHER
Bad Rap   -       5000                                 LUCK SOURCE     INK

Train here, trust me the experience you'll get is plenty, with Yuffie's morph + conformer
trick used here, you'll reap rewards in no time !

-Okay, the last Huge materia to rescue is at Rocket Town, so go there and have Cid in the
team, (He'll makes thing more lively here.) and rush into town.

-You'll need to square of with Rude here. Steal another Ziedrich from him before he loses.
Rude despite the fact that he's badly beaten, is not dead as yet !

-The passcode for the release of the materia inside the rocket is :-
 OK BUTTON, SWITCH BUTTON, CANCEL BUTTON TWICE

-Upon returning to earth, return to COSMO CANYON to safekeep the huge materias as well
as moving on to another mission. Before you go, find the ancient key to save time for
next scene.

-Okay now that your party has gotten the 4 huge materias, it's time to trade them for easy to
use Master Materias ! At this point, you might only be able to get the BAHAMUT ZERO materia,
if you had gotten the Bahamut & Neo-Bahamut to MASTERED level.

-To get the Master Command Materias of Yellow, Red & Green, you'll have to get at least one
of every materia of the 3 colors to master level. Red & green need everything, while Yellow
only needs some of the materias. This means that you'll need to go get the Knights of the
Round materia for the Red Master Materia.

-Oh yeah, fly your airship back to Midgar and talk to the man at the front of the city gate
about a missing key.

-Anyway, moving back to the story, you'll need to get to the ancient forest again, if you
followed the tip from above, then go talk to the man and start digging once again. Just go
all the way to the crshed aircraft's nose tip and search. You'll get the Midgar city key
after trying. Your team should be facing north, the back of the characters's icon is facing
the enterance and the front of the icons should face the nose tip.

-Getting the Midgar city Key, return to explore the old stomping grounds, and get few items
that should help you on the way. (Eg. Tifa's Ultimate weapon, Sneak Glove .. etc)

-Once getting into the ancient city, a sequence should follow, after that return to Midgar
once the Diamond Weapon resurfaces. Wait at the coast near Midgar and the thing will fight
you once it comes into contact. Believe me, you'll better have Exp plus, Gil Plus materias
as well as any weapon that doubles or triples the materia growth rate, as this Weapon helps
you earn a hell lot of points ! Anyhow, do steal Yuffie's Rising Sun from it, but the
Conformer is more powerful, but the Rising Sun can gain 2x Materia Growth Points. Your
best bet to destroy the Diamond Weapon is to keep using Trine or Lightning spells.

-This next part is one part that needs a lot of time. Your next objective is to drop into
the Midgar City and ruin Hojo's plans. Before this, you can do the following suggested
objective first.

-Fly near Fort Condor. You see a familiar Black Dragon there ? It's the Ultimate Weapon
(A bastard Dragon ... you'll find out.) Strap your team with the right equipment and
materias. Do have enemy skill materias and heavy assualt materias (HP absorb, MP absorb
and many others) equipped. This bastard carries different items each time you meet it,
so don't forget to steal from it. It will escape, but it's finally burial ground is at
COSMO CANYON, which later allows access into the Ancient Mysterious Forest, for yet
another puzzle awaits. (OPTIONAL) You can learn the enemy skill, Shadow Flare from it
before it dies ... Dangerous, as you might be killed.

-Okay if you're ready, the dangerous Midgar city adventure awaits ... you will battle a
whole lotta bosses here, so keep your power up always. Also, this is one place that you
can only return to once, so figure out how to get everything you see ! I thought you'll
get another chance, and failed to collect some items.

-If you had faced off with Reno and Rude at Wutai, then you'll have the chance to pass
off a duel with the Turks ... advice is, that you shouldn't ! You'll get the following
if you steal from the Turks :-
Elena will be carrying a Minerva Band (An armor for ladies)
Reno still carries a Tough Ring (A ring orginally owned by Sephiroth)
Rude still carries a Ziedrich (A powerful armor for those materia-less lovers)
This fight can be tough ... good luck defeating them all !

-Search all Tunnels. Going Northwards will sent you to Shinra's HQ where you can go
get somethings that you couldn't carry out the first time you visited. (Refer to the
early chapters for details) and going Southwards, will grant you the W-item materia.
Useful for an infamous duplication trick that really helps you along the way !

-When you fight the massive armor machine, it's best to keep everyone's status up,
I almost died fighting this bastard ... he's tough.

-When climbing up to get to Hojo, bring Barret and a treasure chest containing his
Ultimate weapon, the Missing Score will be available. Without him, the item is not there
at all.

-When you face off with Hojo, bring Vincient and RedXIII will not say great and wonderful
things for those who are really curious. I expected Vinicent to say something about the
past and RedXIII to say something great but no they are quite lame here.

-Hojo is really easy to beat. At least have one character with Ultima materia equipped and
his 2 & 3 forms are TOAST. If you've got Yuffie, use her Conformer + Morph trick here and
it'll be even easier !

-After this part, the only thing you'll need to do, is to go into the final CD and load
the final stage of this game. I won't spoil anyone's surprise here, but here are tips to aid
your journey into the center of the planet to destroy the great Sephiroth.

+ There is no save point but rather, you'll get a Save Crystal. Do not activate this item
until you get to the level where the party/everyone's deciding which path to take.

+ There are items to be collected, and they should be. It's worth to take another trip to
scoop all the items back as you train your party here.

+ It doesn't matter if you cheat here, the enemies are tough so morph them with the Yuffie
Conformer Trick / Tifa's God Hand Deathblow Trick !

+ Remember that there is a way to return to the airship ! Don't despire !

+ Your party should take the left path if you intend to win the game fast. (Wimps)

+ Your party ought to take the right path, with Enemy Skill Materias equipped. (Heroes !)

+ Sephiroth can be destroyed if you just keep using 4x cut ! Keep it up and he should
rot away !

+ Safer Sephiroth's SUPER NOVA attack is worth hanging around for ... Cool spell.

+ For those who wonder if Cloud will die in the final duel, try NOT pressing anything at
once the time gauge fills up.

ALL RIGHT, IF YOU'LL MADE IT THIS FAR, THIS IS THE END OF THE FAQ ! HOPE THIS HAS 
HELPED
YOU IN WAYS ... EVEN IT DIDN'T YOU CAN SEND ME AN E-MAIL TO TELL ME ABOUT YOUR 
PROBLEM !

E-MAIL TO : billykane@mindless.com

Anyhow, hope you beat the game with this help. Other infomation like Chocobo mating is
simply follow the tips given by the Chocobo sage or other FAQ on the net. Don't fret
about defeating the Ruby and Ememard Weapons either, I followed other's instructions
on tactics to beat them both. Good luck, may all the luck be with you.
