Final Fantasy VII Cheats

Final Fantasy VII Cheats

I've been looking at some cheat sites recently and loads of them say that to get enemy skill aqualung you have you to fight a thing called a harpy in the desert surrounding the gold saucer. This realy hurts your party and may kill them so instead equip someone with a water ring. Now go to the lost city/ancient city and fight Jeovana-life.She should use aualung but it wont hurt the guy with the water ring.

-----------------------------------
To defeat the Emerald Weapons without the underwater materia:

1)Have Tifa,Yuffie,and Cloud in your party.
2)Have their Ultimate Limit Breaks and
Weapons.
3)Master these materias:Mime,Final Attack,Phoenix,and Gravity.
4)Have the Knights of the Round Master or at 3 stars.
5)Have there Levels no lower than 70.

Once this is done you're set to go fight
if done in the correct order the Emerald
Weapon will only get five hits on you.

Beware of ATS(Air Tame Storm) it 9999
to every member of party that's why you
need to master Final Attack and Phoenix
it will cast Life2 on all of the party.

Well good luck you'll need it.

How to fight octagon weapon! first u have to get every materia in the game(that includes the master's) then u have to sell everything but the 6 masters(from emerald and bugenhiagen) and equip the masters to cloud, yuffie, and cid in that order.

Cid gets the commands and cloud gets the summons and yuffie (obviously) gets the magics. then u get a gold at s class and a wonderful yellow at b and mate them with a pepio nut, and u will get a dark blue mate the dark blue at c class with the gold and u will get a gold with a black stripe on it's wings.

Then u go outside and go onto a mountain and rapidly tap o, it will start to fly, keep tapping o and it will go higher and higher.

Keep tapping till it reaches high enough where u can't see the land, fly to the ocean while holding x, it will say kweehh! and fly into space go to meteor and u will see octagon weapon

(u can get off in spaceand save if u like just don't stop holding x while u're off or u will die and while on it don't stop holding x or u will apear back on the world map and the chocobo and weapon will dissapear).

He is very hard to beat and i used the idea with a calculator and the most my frind ever got was up to 3,897,021! but i had beaten him which was around 4,012,834.

He only has 3 attacks and there octagon rod(which does around 2,000) and the end is near( which does the amount of enemys u killed in the game). and finally apocolypse (which shows him shoot a beam down at meteor and it flys into earth and u are dead) he only uses that attack when he is about 1000 hp away from dying.

U can fight him more than once and if u defeat him 4 times u get a pearl chocobo which allows u to go anywhere(under water, on land, flying in space anywhere) the esiest way to win the game is to kill octagon weapon.

If u do u can destroy meteor with out killing sephiroth! and if u defeat him 5 or more times u can play the game after u beat it (so if u destroyed meteor without killing sephiroth u can head right back to earth and kill him.

U also can travel to other planets to fight new monsters) and remember my friends and i all tryed this and it worked!

Information about most of these "cheats":

Most of this is crap - first of all - there is no sapphire weapon - people just think that sapphire is the one that got shot by the sister ray. It's not - emerald was the one - if you look at it - you can tell that it's emerald.

Battle arena tips/cheats:
When your handicap choices are spinning, keep tapping square and the slots will slow down, allowing to choose your handicap.

When you get omnislash and W-Summon - you get to do a secret battle arena.

This one is quite a bit harder, so I reccomend you have cloud at 9999 hp and make sure he has haste, mime, hades, added effect, knights of round (optional), omnislash and the ultima weapon. Equip him with added affect and hades in a linked slot in the bracelet/armor section so that it works as a ribbon.

Equip him also with a champion belt to make his limit break a lot stronger. First, start off by casting haste. Then use his limit break (omnislash) and that should kill the first enemy. Keep using mime until you've whooped all enemies until proud clod (the big red guy that Scarlet used is midgar).

If you don't have knights of round, keep using omnislash and with luck, you'll beat the crap outta him. With knights of round though, the battle is no problem. When you win, you'll get the final attack materia - equip it with pheonix and there is no stopping you.

As your walking down the stairs of the battle arena, talk to the guy and he'll give you some sprint shoes.

Accquire Sephiroth
Use a gameshark, and even then, he still sucks.

I reccomend a party of Red XIII, Cloud, Cid...But whatever you do, don't use Vincent, his ultimate weapon sucks and you have to beat so many people to get his ultimate weapon to work.

Silver Chocobo
I'm testing this out right now, I'll post later whether or not it works.

Question:
Who in this world is onyx? Can somebody fill me in cuz I don't know anythinG about this weapon or person or whatever it is.

Email me at compactd1sc@aol.com if you know what it is.

Heres a good way to beat Emerald:
Use the GRAVITY materia combined with Quadra Magic and you can deal some major damage to Emerald!

GRAVITY can damage Emerald for 9,999 points of damage,so with Quadra,it can take 40,000 points of damage each turn,and you can have some mimes along and make it 120,000 points of damaged by each turn!!!

And if ya quick and skilled enuff,
you can easily defeat Emerald with less than 9-10 turns,if ya paid close attention to my strategy!
And it doesnt matter which level GRAVITY is in,both levels do the same amount.

Man,I got more FFVII knowledge than all these wack cats who think they got some knowledge!
And be on the lookout for the movie,too
All these people submitting cheats that I been knew!
SAY SOMETHING,THAT I DONT KNOW!
EVERYBODY!! COME TO ME FOR YOUR PROBLEMS!!

I got cheats coming outta my ass!
and thats just a sample!

This isnt realy a cheat,but it is the fastest way to get Yuffy.

All's you have to do is on the first disk go to the forests between Fort Condor and Junion and get into battles and sooner or later you,ll run into her like any other battle.

Yuffy is way easy to defeat. Once youve defeated her you go to a little grass area with a save point and Yuffy's lying on the ground you have to talk to her answer her questions right, and as you leave the area she'll join the party.

P.S. dont use the save point, if you do Yuffy runs off with some of your gil.

FINALLY! AN EASY WAY TO BEAT THE WEAPONS!

Ok, first, Ruby. You will need W-item, one Megalixir, one phoenix down, Multiply them to 99, another cheat will tell you how.

Now, kill 2 people, leave one standing with w-item, when in battle, item, phoenix down (dead memeber) and megalixir, repeat.

If you have w-summon, then w-summon hades then KOTR and mime. (after 3 times wait for him to move again, then cast A.S.A.P.)

If you don't have those, then continually cure yourself with megallixirs, multiply 'em if u run low, and just keep attacking, it takes a long time...but eventually it will kill him.

Emerald. you need W-item, 99 megalixirs, 99 phoenix downs, have these materis, one person, w-item, 4x cut (optional), and mabye one summon, don't put more then 3 materia on one person, Aire tram storm takes 3333 for 3 materia, 5555 for 5 etc.,

But you go into battle (you can use 7777 fever, really effective way to take a big chunk of health out before you start fighting) and use w-item to continually keep your health up, attacking when u can, summoning if you can.

NOTE: Never let your health get too low, he can finish you all off with emerald shoot if you do. but just keep attacking, curing, and after a very LONG timee, you beat him, SLOW but effective, as i've found out that all the other cheats, don't work, and finally I found a way that does!

HOPE IT HELPS! if not, go to the message board and ask for help, it is an awesome message board, many new things posted everyday, join as soon as you can!

how to get a secret character.

1)if you find a summon materia dont pick it up.
2) never equip cloud with nothing but the buster sword.

3) when aeris dies, she wont, but cid dies from falling off of the highwind when cloud goes bogus.
4) in the underwater junon part, when you have controll of the sub, weapon will automaticly attack.

5) after doin 100,000 damage, you will see a fmv of a long spear goin through him or her???

6) he will admit he is cids son, and shera is his mom.

7) his name is Lloyd. he will only join you on 1 condition, you agree to avenge cid.(i forgot to mention sephiroth knocked him off)

8) he has 1 of each of the summon materia

This is not actually a cheat -_-

but to kill ruby weapon easier without those super strong summons and limit breaks!
All you need is the:
Hades or Choco/mog (to strun ruby weapon)
3 enemy skills-with magic hammer
pheonix-final attack(final attack optional)

Before the ramming into ruby weapon with highwind, equip ur 3 strongest characters with their 2nd strongest weapon(not the ultimate 1s.eg my cloud uses ragnok-something sword and not ultima) cuz they'll lose the super AP after killing ruby weapon. Then kill 2 of ur characters and leave the highest character with pheonix(basic knowledge :D)

In the battle, wait until ruby weapon burys its claws into the sand. Then use pheonix to revive ur characters and heal ruby weapon a bit.
then use hades or choco/mog on body of ruby weapon(not the wavy tentacles)
then ruby weapon should be frozen/stopped.
then keep using magic hammer on the tentacles until all its MP runs out.
if ruby weapon comes back to life after being stunned, then stun it again.
after all its MP has run out, it wont counter with ultima or use that draining mana attack or anything.
it just says RUBY WEAPONS POWER HAS BEEN USED UP.
Like i tried it with ultimate weapon as well.
it just keep saying that every turn.
then just use normal attack or anything u got against it.
I wish choco/mog + hades' stun works against emerald as well.

PS ruby weapon got lots of mp so its better to have hades or choco/mog more than level 1..............
choco/mog easier to level cuz u get it near start of the game (where chocobofarm is)

ok I hope this helps those weaker ppl :(

When you arive the Gi Tribe ghost, start by giving it a Phoenix down. It will kill it instantly.

And another cheat: To kill Ruby weapon as fast as possible equip w-summon and hades. Cast it at ruby and it will freeze for some time. Then use Knights of the round table on it.

Then use mime whit the other characters, which you have to kill before going into this battle.

If you have two men killed then ruby wont use Whirlsand. Remember to use phoenix flame before hitting it with hades.

If you want to kill Sephiroth fast use the omnislash by Cloud on him and then KOTR. Then he will die.

And if someone really know the way to save Aeris. Then PLEASE write it to my e-mail adress.

An easy way to beat savior sephroth is to get cloud close to limit ( make sure he has omnislash ) and do a fair amount of damage to him (about 30,000) and when he does super nova you will limit and kill him easy.

One Item you will need is ribbon.

Defeat Savior Sephiroth.

This is pretty easy, just use Knights of Round on him. if you get him before he gets his barrier up it should take him out with one dose of it.

If his barrier is up, either de-barrier him, or i'm sure w-summon KOR will take care of him.

To fight Bizzaro Sephiroth with three parties all you have to do is destroy Jenova really quickly. The way i did it was i used KOR on her and it killed her with one dose.

I found this out by a reliable source. You can kill Barret instead Airies.

All you have to do is when Sepheroth is about to kill Airies press X,R1=O,triangle,sqaure, and x and they will switch places.

Easy way to beat matireia keeper you will need all the stuff listed below (exept the limit breaks) For that guy that says he cant beat matireia keeper heres a tip, dont use vincint because his limit only cures the monster.

Another tip is dont use bolt or fire because they only cure him.

An easy way to beat him is to have cloud, barret, and red XIII. have clouds climhazzerd limit, barrets satilite beam, and red XIIIs lutanic high.

Have everyone close to there limit and everyone on level 25 or higher. also have armor on that reduces lightning damages because he uses trine.

Take this time to get it because you,ll not get another chance until much later in the game. use clouds climhazzerd and barrets satilite beam. redXIIIs lunitic high is to cast haste on your intire party.

Also use regen to constintly recharge hp. (trine does around 800 to 900 points of damage

Call Tifa a kind of fruit and Aeris a kind of flower. When you go into the Forgotten City, You'll actually see Aeris going into the thingymajig and dropping the white materia.

Pick it up and procede forward when Aeris is praying she will be killed then defeat Jenova .When the battle finishes Cloud will pick up Aeris and drop her the white materia will fall into her gub.

It will disappear and Aeris will be revived.
Then Seperoth will come back and attemp to kill Aeris when a secret character will appear called Scareye.

His arm will fall off and he will join your party but Aeris will take a deep dive to get the White Materia back and will be killed in the proceed

At the Gold Saucer when Cait Sith steals the Keystone go to the Chocobo Square instead of the one Cait Sith goes down, you'll find another Keystone then go to the stairs where Tseng is and Cait Sith will be caught.

He'll give you everything in the game in return for the Keystone. Now in the FMV where Aeris dies she will turn around and dodge the sword.

The game will procede as usual except Tifa will fall of the Highwind in the last FMV and will be killed instantly.

Everyone who talks as if the emerald is immposible is a dumbass. You don't need KotR, or mime, or anything else.

Just make sure you are at a high levle and have ultimate weapons, and have ultimate limit breaks.

I beat him way before I beat Sephiroth, I actually beat him right after invasion on midgar.

I accidentally got into a battle, so I wasn't even prepared!!!!!!! If you can't beat em, then you just suck, thats about all.

The real hard enemy is teh onyx, that guy is tough, and with him you do need KotR and mine and so forth.

If your one of those people who like hard battles, I've got one for you.

If you walk out side and around the bone village, you might get into a battle with what looks like a dinosaur!

You can't sense it for some reason. If you've been to the Temple of the Ancients and battled the red dragon you would think it was hard wouldn't you?

Not if you battle the dinosaur like monster. But if you like to battle big bad monsters to get lots of $$ and EXP.

You won't want to fight this guy. He's only worth about 200 to 300 EXP.(for me) and a bit over 100 gil :~(

Easy XP and AP: To get easy XP and AP, equip Cloud's Apocalypse(found in Ancient Forest) and Rune Armlet(bought in Bone Village), Cid's Scimitar(found in Downed Shinra Plane, Gelnika) and Rune Armlet, and the last person is your choice, just equip them with their double AP weapon with the most slots and a Rune Armlet. Go down into the Crater to the room where the party splits up, take the left-up route, and walk around on the yellow vines until you run into Movers or Magic Pots.

Movers look like little red balls with two smaller orangish-red balls inside and come in packs of three. Magic Pots look like golden pots with purple heads sticking out.

It's best to have W-Item equipped to throw an elixer to each one. They are invincible unless you feed them one. You get 8000 XP and 1000 AP for each Magic Pot, and 0 XP and 800 AP for each Mover, but are always in packs of three, so you get 2400 AP.

This is the best place in the game for XP and AP. This is how I got 4 Master Magic, 3 Master Command, and 2 Master Summon in a little bit over an hour. To get Master Materia, get every Materia of that color (only green, red or yellow), master all of them once, go to Cosmo Canyon and go to Bugenhagen's room.

Go up to the Huge Materia of the color of the materia that you mastered. Choose get closer, and it will say ask you if you want to perform Materia Blend. Say yes, and you will have it.

For getting Master Command, you only have to master Morph, Deathblow, Mime, Sense, Manipulate, Throw, and Steal.

Any cheat for getting sepheroth or zack or a silver chocobo if totaly BOGUS! anybody who submits these cheats is just trying to make fools out of you.

Also by naming aries EASY only signifies how easy you are. the only sure way to defeat emerald weapon is w-summon K.O.T.R. triple mine.

Ruby weapon will not go down unless you start the fight with 2 members dead and revive them after he plants those hands.

Then create a chain of hades K.O.T.R. triple mime. there are no short cuts for the week like luck 7's. lucky 7's is a waste of time getting it the fight your charecters HP fall to one.

Ultimate materia (that materia that gives all spells summons and commands) is a joke. have fun waisting your time on these completely BOGUS cheats.

And who ever piontlessly started them i hope your having fun never witnessing the results. also aries connot be revived.

I for one know that its tough to get over but we're gonna have to. any other cheat i knoticed you would have to be real dumb and real bad at the game not to realize.

Although i do recomend regen while the lid is open on the playstation.

It could save lives. in closing zack and aries are dead and sepheroth is the bad guy. dont expect anything else.

Zack Code:

On the second mission with Avalanche after jumping off of the train go in the oppisite direction of the shaft you have to climb into.After going back long enough you will see two Shinra guards standing in front of a open doorway.You will have the option of RUN or FIGHT.Chose FIGHT and you will go into a battle with three Shinra guards.After each battle you will have to chose RUN or FIGHT allways chose FIGHT.You will have to battle for a long time and if you want the trick to work you can only Heal Cloud.I never confirmed this cheat to work.I only made through 55 battles then i quite,but after you battle for a bout 4 hours Zack will come out of the open doorway ready to battle untill he remembers Cloud.When he notices cloud he will run away.Then carry on with your mission untill you reach the town of Kalm(the first town out of Midgar).There you will se Zack and he will join you party.Zack supposedly has Master magic,and Mater summon materia,and can only equip the buster sword.
NOTICE:Even if this trick doesn't work all the battles will have you at level 41 and all limit breaks except level 4 limits.LIke i said before i only made it through 55 battles so if it doesn't work,don't $*%#! me out.Its also a good way to level up because you can battle as many times as you want by chosing the RUN option after you have battled enough.Then just go back to the screen and battle some more

Here's yet another little helpful hint: In Battle Square,get hard handicaps. Your points at the end will soar. I get a regular of 11000. Make sure you can beat everyone.

Another: Go into the battle with a very powerful and hurts-all limit break with mime. Do the limit break and MIME!!!! Also, I would have a ribbon on the guy.

P.S.: Make sure you have a high HP, because you can't cure or you'll break the pattern. To do this, go to the room where a guy is snoozin' and he will sell HP plus materias(also MP plus).

I have a couple of things. First off, a thing for beating Ruby:Use the BAHAMUT family. It doesn't do as much as Knights of the Round, but a good 4000-5000. And use Hades summon and dazers to stun him.

Just to make sure, on the last cheat I sent in about getting Vincent, don't forget Cosmo Memory (Red's final limit break).

If you missed the W-Item thing in Midgar, just excavate at the Bone Village on the X by the ladder.

Here's how to get everyone's best weapon:

CLOUD: BEAT ULTIMA WEAPON IN COSMO CANYON

BARRET: ON THE STEPS UP TO HOJO ( HE MUST BE IN YOUR PARTY)

TIFA:GET THE KEY TO MIDGAR. IT IS IN THE SHOP IN WALL MARKET THAT SAYS "ITEM"

AERIES: FOUND ON THE 6 CLOCK IN THE ANCIENT TEMPLE.

RED: GO TO BUGENHAGEN AFTER YOU HAVE TOOKEN HIM TO THE ANCIENT TEMPLE.

CAIT SITH: WHEN IN MIDGAR THE 2 TIME, CHECK THE LOCKERS IN THE SHINRA HQ.

VINCENT: ON YOUR SECOND VISIT TO lUCRESIA'S CAVE.

Some cheats-

1- The R-E-A-L way to save Aeris. Tried and true, here's what you have to do. To save Aeris, you must have the BLACK MATERIA BEFORE you actually get it at the Temple! Here's how- At the beginning of the game, name cloud Storm. Progress through the game, making sure you have Aeris at level 99, with ALL her limit breaks, before it's time to go to the Temple of Ancients. Instead, head through the ice places and the glacier (where you would normally have gone AFTER Aeris died) Up to the crator in the north. Walk around the crator pressing search ( O ) to find the BLACK MAETERIA. Progress as normal from there, and at the battle with Sephiroth, where Aeris usually dies, you instead enter into battle with Sephiroth right away, and she doesn't die! This frees up more dialogue and such between Storm (cloud) and Aeris for the rest of the game. Have fun!

2- Zack's Stash- If you name Cloud Zack in the beginning of the game, and search the first box you find during the first mission 50 times, you get a bunch of stuff include K.O.T.R! (my friend got this from his Japanese ff7 guide, and swears it works on his english version of the game, but i tried with no luck, but i thought i'd include it here anyway)

3- White Materia (Aeris's Materia) Can be found by golden chocobo on the beach of an island just west of the crator.

Exchange the Highwind for the Tiny Bronco:
Get the item Super Sweeper from the roller coaster game in the Gold Saucer. Note: You must do this before you lose Cloud temporarily. Go to Fort Condor, and give the Super Sweeper to the old man there. He will then give you the Tiny Bronco.

This isn't a cheat, just information on how to get an Enemy skill called "Shadow Flare." To accomplish this, you must have one of your party members equiped with "Reflect" materia paired with All materia, and all of your party members equiped with "Enemy Skill" materia. Get in the last fight with the Ultimate Weapon(When he is near Cosmo Canyon)and cast Reflect on all of your allies, now summon Bahamut(any one)multiple times. When you take away enough damage, he should cast "shadow Flare" on one of your allies.(You MUST cast Reflect, or Shadow Flare has a VERY good chance of killing you if your energy is not high enough!)If you did everything correctly, Shadow Flare will bounce off of you and hit the Ultimate Weapon, it should say "Learned Enemy Skill Shadow Flare."

NOTE:He dies right after he casts it, and you also recieve Cloud's Ultima Weapon.

This code is actually quit easily. The move where the Emerald Splits into 2 and hits you with a beam can be weaken dramatically. The damage done to it is the number of Materia Equiped X 1,100. So if you have 1 Materia equiped, 1,100. 2 is 2,200 and so on. That's all.

This is another "rumor" that is true.
Travel on the World Map, constantly tapping your button as if you were really climbing a chocobo. If you're lucky, you'll accidentally climb on top of the Invisible Chocobo. This one is actualy true. If you dont want to try that long method just pop the PSX lid with a Chocobo right next to you. I know this sounds wierd, but it's. I've done it before. You usually have to have the lid open, though. Later!

How to get the awesome Vincent

Can't find the Nibelheim safe combonation? Look no more! The combonation is: Right 36, Left 10, Right 59, Right 97. Make sure not to pass a number. The door will open. You will fight an easy monster (lost number). Grab the materia (Odin) and the key. Go to the basement. There is a door (NOT THE DOOR SEPHIROTH IS IN!). Look at the purple coffin. Talk to Vincent until he says "Let me sleep" Leave the room. On the way down the corrider, he will say "Wait!"Then talk some, and voila!!!! There's Vincent!

To get a date with Barrett do not talk with Tifa or Aires unless it is for vital progression. At the Gold Saucer Barrett will ask you for a date instead of Aires or Tifa!

To kill both the weapons (the one under water and the one in the sand.)

Simply get Knights of the Round Pair it with HP absorb, then put mime and counter on, then pair Final Attack with Revive.

If all of these are on there master level then you should have no problem killing them, also if you get all three if your main characters with all of this materia in that order then they will be dead in 15 minutes.

I found this by accident it is how to get Zack as a summon.First you must go to Costa de sol and buy the hotel.

Then breed a gold chocobo and race it to S class and beat that black chocobo 10 times in a row now dont get KOR or this cheat wont work now go to your sub and attack Emerald weapon.

Do not equip zero bahamut and use the buster sword now defeat him and he will leave the Zack summon mataria .

Zack does the omnislash attack 4 times and takes off around 120000hp and equiped with quadra it does 480000hp.

If you miss the w-item in sector 8 undeground go to the bone village and ask to escavate normal treasure from the guy standing outside the cave.

But instead of hiring a digger just go to done and click on the big 'x' marked on the ground and someone will still dig for it,voila.

This may also work with the lunar harp but im not to sure.

1. This is an answer to one of Ed's questions. The buggy can cross a river. Look for the green waters that are about two buggy widths wide. That's about all the buggy can do.

2. I tried the cheat to get Tifa's final limit, Final Heaven on disc 1. Go to her house in Nibelheim (with her in the part) and go to her piano. Press X, square, triangle, hold R1/L1+triangle, R1/L1+square, X, Sqaure, Triangle, R1/L1+X,O,X,sqaure,X. Afterwards, Tifa finds 1 gil in her piano. To get the Final Heaven, repeat the process on disc 2 or 3.

3. After returning to Nibelheim and discovering it not burnt down, go into Tifa's room and go to her desk. Press O, and it'll be explained why everyone is acting so strange.

To ressurect Aries, you dont have 2 get l.100 caracters or anything like that.
First u get 100 tissues. Then, go 2 aries house and go 2 her bedroom and use the tissues, and cloud would say 'why did she die', and cloud would kill himself!!! NOT! then, go to the church, and aries ghost will appear. she will say,take this and ressurect aries. SHE WILL GIVE U THE WHITE MATERIA! but u cant use it in battle otherwise u cant resurrect her. then go to the placewhere she died, and she will wake up! Then the ghost will appear and give aries 'THE WORD OF GOD!' this s her new 4th level limit break. But the ghost will take the white materia off you and say' this has to be used wisely' or something like that. Then, sephiroth will appear, and tries to trick you into killing aries. You nearly fall for it, until aries ghost appears and cloud gets to his senses.then, sephiroth kills the third member of your party(the one lowest down on the menu). then he runs off. cloud asks for the holy materia, THEN SHE TURNS INTO A DEVIL AND KILLS U ALL!not! she leaves, and the game carries on as normal.

Also, I KILLED RUBY IN ONE HIT! its nothing like omnislash or KTR. I was being stupid and equipping their worst weapons and limit breaks. I used barrets big shot, and no number came up for the damage. Then it died! But two tentacles appeared behind us. they killed my party. big shot didnt work on those.

Before I go in to any cheats and tricks. Let me clear up some confusion and make belive tips.
No. 1, their are only 5 weapon monsters and only 4 that you can fight. One does get taken out by the sister Ray in JUNON ( not the Midger one ) that you never fight and to my knowladge, their is no known name for him but people call him Saphire weapon. The other 4 are Ultimate ( airborn ), Ruby ( Gold Saucer ), Diamond ( attacks Midger ), and Emrild ( underwater ) who LOOKS much like Diamond but is A totaley diferent monster.
Second off, Squaresoft themselves said that you CAN NOT get Aeris back in your party so let that sink in. Claims of it is make belive.
Now, on to tips.
MULTIPUL MASTER MATERIA
As many already know, their are 3 master materia that can be abtained by defeating Emrild weapon. Their is another way though. First you have to get all 4 huge materia.
One will dish out Bahumat ZERO, and the other 3 resemble the colors of diferent materia types. If you abtain ALL of each materia type and master at least one of them and return to cosmo canion, you will be able to mold thoes materia types in to one master materia and have unlimited use of it pher battle given you have the MP on hand to cast the spells.
Better yet, you can repete the proccess as often as you want and gain all the master materia you can hold. I myself have 8 of each ( 1 pher charictorr ) not including the 3 you get from Emrid weapon. Warning: when you mold the master materia, you loose the mastered materia it takes to mold. You also have to master one of each materia every time you want to mold. Even in the Magic Pots area, this can take A verey long time.

MASTER MAGIC TRICK
It sounds kinda obvious but for just in case, if you attach an ALL to A master magic materia ( all magic spells in one materia ) it will all-affect every spell you cast giving you more magic firepower in 2 slot then you could hold all togather otherwize.

DOCK 9999 FROM SAFER SEPHIROTH WITH KOTR
People think that Safer Sephiroth is just outright half amuned to Knights of the Round but that isn't so. Notice that his verey first move is to put up A wall shield. The trick is to use the debarrier spell on him to bring his wall down and cast KOTR on him and it will have the same affect on him as any other enamy.
Note...
KOTR does damage based on your charictors equipped weapon and attachments. For best affect ( 9999 hp dockings ) their are 3 verey reliable tricks. One, have cloud at 9999 HP, equip the Ultima Weapon and attach KOTR to Ultima wepon pared with MP Turbo. Another, Yuffies ultimate weapon does damage according to the enamys strength. This meanes that she will alwayse do 9999 in damage to Safer sephiroth and plus afects to any attached materia so you can just attach KOTR to her ultimate weapon and it will deal 9999 each time flawlessley. Last but not least, do A few houres of casuale fighting with Vincent and his ultimate weapon equipped, say, 20-30 battles after it is dealing 9999 and it will do the same as Yuffie.

QUICKLEY MORPH ENAMYS IN THE DOWNED AIRCRAFT
Abtain yuffies ultimate weapon and any up to date sword of Clouds. Attach morph to Yuffies ultimate weapon.
Now, in battle, strike your enamy once with Cloud and then use the morph command from Yuffie. She will dock 9999 in damage and usualey will morph your enamy on the spot. Note. Depending on the weapon Cloud is using, some enamys may need to be hit more then once before using Yuffie to morph. Use your perferd weapon and do so. If you have to strike more then once before morphing, just have you're 3rd party member do that with A weapon similer to Clouds in power.

ok this is a stratagy

When your on the raid of the reactor(2nd mission)and your on the train.
In one of the cars a man is walking past slowly then runs when he passes you.
Go back and talk to him.you find out that he stole a item from you.

After you jump off the train you go down the tunnel normaly.but if
you go the other way for about 6 screens you'll stumble upon a door
with gaurds in front off it. when it says to go the other way you chose the one
that says to stay and fight. you can do this for hours and its great
for leveling up.

An even easier way to beat the Ruby Weapon:

Okay...first...you're going to have to beat the Emerald Weapon. Have Mastered/4-leveled summons of Phoenix, Neo Bahamut, Bahamut ZERO...any heavy-loading damage dealer. Knights of the Round would work well too. It works better with W-Summon. Not really a strategy...just....beat him...sorry for lack of advice.

NOW...use the Earth Harp you get from Emerald Weapon and trade it for Master CMD, Summon and Magic. Equip all three on your main player (the one with the most HP and MP...mine was Cloud). Link Master Summon with HP Absorb. Also try and get 8500-9999 HP using HP plus, and at least 700 MP with MP plus. Get into a fight on the field and kill your other two players...use magic against your other players except for your heavily equipped materia-person. Now, save....and fight the Ruby Weapon. PLEASE make sure you have Master Command, Summon and W-Summon equipped. Have Master Summon linked with HP Absorb. When you attack the Rubny Weapon, use W-Summon Knights of the Round and Knights of the Round...as you'll be able to tell..you'll get at LEAST 9000 damage back to you by HP Absorb. When the Weapon uses Ultima, don't worry. As long as you're attacking his torso, NOT his claws...then you'll do fine. Mime the attack...and enjoy the time to whoop his kiester. After a while...he'll give up hope on using Ultima and result in using Comet2 to Big Swing.... Only doing 7000-8000 damage. Keep Mime-ing until you beat him...you'll keep recovering HP as you go.

THE BEST ACCESSORY

Get in the highwind and go to Cosmo Canon then fly directly south till your over the sea at the bottom of the map and search around for a desert island.

Have morph materia on and walk around on desert area of the island till you find a cactaur morph it (they have 6,000 health) and you will get a tetra elemental which absorbes all fire, ice, lightning and earth damage.

To date Tifa instead of Aeris:
Never talk to Aeris unless it is required for you to finish the game {or when you are forced to talk to her}and,never have Aeris on your team unless you are forced to have her on your team.And talk to her as mean as possible and make her think you like Tifa,{ for example,when she asks if Tifa is your girlfriend,then say yeah.}Then,at the Gold Saucer, you will date Tifa instead of Aeris.

bronze weapon: this code only works on disk 3
fisrt you have to get 2 tissues and then go to aeirs house and sleep in her bed then when u wake up and cloud will kneel before the bed and say somthing like why did you have to die .then go to the church by her house and some kids will want to play with cait sith say yes. then they will give u a bronze amulet. the go back to where u got your dress and stay in the closet thing for about 3 mins and then the lady wants you to leave so she give you another broze amulet. to get the last amulet you must go to the golden saucer and the game place and talk to the guy on the motorcycle 5 time then he will get mad and tell you to go away .say no he will give u the last bronze amulet if you leave him alone. then with all of the bronze amulets fly over midgar the highwind will stop and cait sith accedently drop one into midgar and a ball of energy will rise around midgar (just like north crater) and then let cait sith accedenly drop it into midgar. then finnaly drop it on the island where you get KOTR. another force thing should be there. so you should have three force feild around midgar, the KOTR island, and golden saucer. then all of the force field should fly together in the air and come together as one. then it should form into bronze weopon.
you might want to be at level 99 because bronze is very strong and is invonurable to physical attacks

Ok. let me tell you all some tips and hints about ff7. most of these cheats on here are so bs. like the bronze weapon and the other weapons. and how to keep aeris alive. total bs. i have had the game for more than 3 yrs. and i know all about it. now to the tips.

easy gp in gold suacer. just keep racing your chocobs and exchange everything (even the good prizes ) if u keep racing enough in a row u will get all the really good items like cats bell and other goodies.(the chick gives em all to you )

easy lvl up. just go to the crator ( how ever its spelt ) and go down far enough until you reach the part with waer. just battle in there and you will lvl up real fast ( lvl and materia )

item dup. equip w-item. go into battle. pick the item u want duped and select it once. the click again to where it wants u to chose who to use it on then press cancel. it should have gone up one. u can keep doing that until the item reaches 99.

easiest way to beat emerald. this is what i did and it was awesome. equip every one with hp plus, speed plus, cure, and mime ( mime has to be on everyone.) put w-summon, kotr attached with mp absorb on cloud. and some one with underwater. and what ever else want. o ya, final attack with pheonix. get cloud to cast w-summon kotr and have everyone mime it. i was lucky enough to pull it off. i had every one use w-kotr twice each ( 4 kotr for each guy ) in a row. it will kill him guarenteed. i still have to kill ruby. i have tried lots of materia combos' and nothing has worked. well those tips are legit and they work, so enjoy em and thats it.

This one is for those people who have given up on reviving aeris.

First off you'll need the items posted below:
Buster Sword,
about 4 tissues,
and a mastered revive materia

Equip the mastered revive materia to the Buster Sword and go somewhere where you can gain alot of ap(ex.Magic Pot Room) you have to gain about 1,500,000 ap for the already mastered revive materia,what most players do not know is that the revive materia can reach a fourth secret level called "resurrect".

Once you've done this go to Aeris's house, enter her bedroom and use the tissues next to her bed until cloud says "Why did you have to die?" once he says that the other characters will come out and they start talking after their done go to the church.

On the way there stop at the save point and get Cait Sith in your party, when you go into the church talk to the kids, they'll want to play with Cait Sith.

Cait Sith and the kids will go outside and then a ghost of Aeris will appear and she'll say something about a resurrection spell(the fourth level on your revive materia), after that head for the Ancient City.

Go to where that big crystal surrounded by the waterfall is enter the waterfall and something will happen(I won't tell you what because that would spoil the moment)after all that is done go back to the church and you'll see Aeris.

I hope non-believers try this because it WORKS!!

Okay, i don't have a cheat...but a question which can only be asked by a novice at these types of games, so no one who mastered this game ride my ass about this.

But how the hell do you get to the sleeping man (in order to acquire her limit four break) before aeris dies?

I mean the buggy cant cross the river, I've tried madly, for as much as at one time, 2 hours trying to figure a path across.

Secondly, I cant breed a chocobo, because the nut i need for a chocobo capable of crossing the river is on an island that the tiny bronco can't land on.

So how in the hell do you get There? Please, anyone someone?

This isn't a CHEAT per se, nut it is an "almost" foolproof way to defeat Emerald and Ruby Weapon.

First of all, there are certain things you should have before you even THINK about attaking them...

1) At least three if the ultimate weapons, one of which MUST BE Cloud's Ultima Weapon
2) Knights of the Round materia
3) Final Attack materia
4) Phoenix materia
5) Counter materia (the one for COMMANDS!)
6) Mime materia
7) Cloud's Apocalypse sword from the Ancient Forest
8) At least one Ribbon
9) The best armor you can get your hands on - Mystiles and Aegis Armlets recommended
10) At least 3 Master-Level HP Plus materia
11) At least 1 Master-level Magic Plus materia
12) HP Absorb materia
13) W-Summon materia
14) Optional - Underwater materia (morph a Ghost Ship near the Junon Reactor and take the resulting Guidebook to the old guy in Kalm)

First off, take on RUBY first - she's a lot easier than Emerald.

Deliberately kill the other members of your party (NOT CLOUD). Equip Cloud with the Ribbon, a Mystile, and the Apocalypse. Put the Counter, Final Attack, and Mime on the Apocalypse and link KOTR with HP Absorb on your armor, then put the rest of the materia (only one HP Plus though) on the remaining slots on his armor. Heal him up, then attack Ruby. As soon as the fight starts, she'll put her tentacles out behind you. Cast KOTR once on the tentacles, and once on her. Keep miming it, and not only will you heal for about 26000 HP every round, her tentacles will retract every time she uses them and still hit her with both shots when the tentacles aren't out. If it's done fast enough, she'll never even be able to use her most devastating attacks - Shadow Flare and Ultima. Even if she does, there's still a 3 in 5 chance that they'll miss you because of the Mystile.

Following this, the materia on the Apocalypse will gain 150000 AP EACH, which will boost Final Attack to level 4 and should be enough to master both the Mime and Counter materias.

Heal your party, then equip Cloud with the Ultima Weapon and link Mime to Counter and Phoenix to Final Attack. Put your second strongest magic user into your party and give him/her the other Mime, his/her best weapon, an HP Plus, and your other Magic Plus. If you're lucky enough to have a third Mime, give it to your third best magician, but it's not really necessary (ditto for a third Magic Plus). Use more HP Plusses if their max HP isn't at least 9500. Fill any empty slots you have left with whatever materia you want to level up. Stick the Underwater materia on the third character.

Make ABSOLUTELY SURE that the Phoenix-Final Attack combo is placed to the LEFT of the Mime-Counter combo.

As soon as the fight against Emerald starts, switch to Cloud and double-cast KOTR. Have the other two mime it. Every time he attacks Cloud, depending on Counter's level, there's a decent chance (100% if it's mastered) that Cloud will immediately retaliate with the Mime attack, without waiting for his turn!

When Emerald uses Aire Tame Storm, there's a 99% chance that you WILL die, which is where Phoenix comes in. If you don't have the MP to use it, then you'll be glad of this little glitch - Cloud will then (probably) use the Mime command, which will not only double-cast KOTR again, it'll also cast Phoenix again, if the materia's in the right order on his equipment (yes, I HAVE seen this happen!!)!! This, of course, assumes that ATS actually HITS you, which is only a 50/50m shot 'cause of the Mystiles...

If you don't want to take the time to get KOTR, then you can try using Bahamut ZERO with Quadra Magic. However, you'll need twice as many copies of BZ to be able to use the HP Absorb with it.

SEPHIROTH: You need to get the Masamune Blade at the Speed Square in the Gold Saucer. Next you need to get Touph Ring and the Gold Amulet. The Gold Amulet can be brought in Rocket Town and the Touph Ring can be stoled off Reno during his third or fourth battle. Now remember that sick guy in Midgar outside Aeris' house? Go in his house and the sick man will enter saying he has came back from a long journeya dn has found a cure for his sickness. He will reveal he is a Sephiroth clone and will join your party if you give him the items you have found. His name is Deek and is equipped with the Bahamut Materia and Ultima with Quadra Magic. Note: he can also equip the Murasame from Wutai Weapon Shop. His limit breaks are Grand Lethal, Scoop Art, Megido Fountain and Jenova Special with does loads of 9,999 damage more then Omnislash!

AERIS: A secret way to save Aeris from Seaphiroth, just get her to level 99 and learn all her limit breaks plus get her ultimate weapon. Make sure she is equiped with the best armour, accesories and Materia you find which is all MASTERED. Now during a FMV sequance at the place where Sephiroth is about to kill her Aeris will cast Great Gospel to dodge the sword. Sephiroth will escape leaving Jenova to attack you.

RUFUS: Strange, huh? Master your Restore Materia and cast Cure3 on Rufus during his boss battle (espcially on Dark Nation). Rufus will be your friend, joining your party he can equip Vincent's Weapons and his limit break (theres only 1) is Dark Nation. Summoning Dark Nation will do 9,999 hp damage on whatever enemy your fighting.

DYNE: To save Dyne and make him join your party you must equip Barret with the Throw Materia and throw ALL the gunarms you have at Dyne during his boss battle. Dyne will run back into his senses and will join you. He equiped with a new weapon (and his only one) called Bazzokah Arm. Also his equipment is Silver Armlet and Star Pendant. The Materia is Shiva, Fire with All. They are mastered. His Limit Break is Molotev Cocktail doing 2,000 damage or more.

ZACK: (Note: do not use the Aeris save thing)To get Zack you must have always equiped Cloud with the Buster Sword, also get him to level 99. Now when Cloud wants to kill Aeris, Zack will come out of no where and kill Aeris instead. Zack will run away once he has realized what he has done and will come back to you by meeting him at the Shinra Mansion Library. He will join, Zack is exactly the same as Cloud.

Please note that it's impossible to get ALL of these new characters, you are only aloud 2 of them. Also you can not have Zack and Aeris at the same time. Even though I have not tried this out I would take Rufus and Deek (Sephiroth clone).

I have many things to say:

1. The rumour about 'Octagon Weapon' and The 'Brown Chocobo' is a load of rubbish.

2. Yes, Sephiroth can come into your party, with one exception: you need a gameshark.

3. Yes, Aeris can also be revived, but you need a gameshark.

4. You can get Sephiroth's 'Masamune Blade' at the Speed Square at Golden Saucer. But you cannot use it because it is a replica.

5. The Chocobo with stripes on its wing is also bollocks, as is the 'You can destroy meteor without beating Sephy'.

6. It is possible to get Sephroth's Accessory, Touph Ring. Just steal it off one of the Turks when you fight in the Glenika-Type Airplane or on your raid on Midgar in disk 2.

---------------------------------------

Now the cheats.

1. Just before you're about to nick the Shin-Ra submarine, there is a box under the steps to the sub, and there is also an other box at the end of the platform with Leviathan Scales, (used in Wutai).

2. When you nare in the sub, go straight for the red sub, none of the others.

3. When fighting Bizzaro Sephiroth (the first one) put your main 3 characters (Cloud, Vincent and Cid for me) in the second position. In other words, when choosing your teams, choose Cait Sith, Red XIII and Yuffie first. Then put your main 3 in. Then put your remaining characters in the last troop. When fighting Bizzaro, destroy one part of him and it will say: Worried about the other partys? Say: Yeah...A little.

okay I just beat the emerald weapon for the very first time. The kicker is somehow during the game I accidently trashed the chocobo lure materia so i couldnt get to the materia caves. I want to thank everybody for the secret about the # of materia equals the amount of damaga you take.I equipped cloud,cid,barret,(74lvl,72lvl,65lvl)each with 1 hp plus materia. Cloud had the w-item,cid had underwater,and barret had phoenix. I had used the w-item tip to get 99 each mexalixers,stardust,t/s bomb,phoenix down.all you have to do is alternate between the megalixers and the stardust(if all lasers are showing) or t/s bombs(when its by itself).
It took me about 45 minutes to do it and I never cast a spell!!

No cheats, but a few tips from a game freak....

First- go to the sunken cargo ship and find the conformer for Yuffie. It allows you to use the morph command without losing any of your attack. All creatures on board can be morphed into steroid items. HAPPY HUNTING!!!!

Second- I haven't been able to beat the ruby weapon any other way than to go to the Gelnika and spend hours morphing the creatures into steroids for cloud. I believe I created pretty unstoppable character. My strength was near 400 when I finally beat him.

Third- upon completing the Ancient Forest, you will recieve the apocolypse sword for cloud. It has triple AP gains for materia. Use it to master the speed plus, hp plus, double cut, and mp plus materias for a little extra boost against the weapons. The best place for AP is the Gelnika

Fourth- the double cut materia turns into the 4x cut materia upon level gain. When mastered, your character gets a strength boost as well. After clouds levels get high enough, he can do approx. 40,000 (4 times 9,999)damage with each turn. Use speed plus and speed source to make him unstoppable.

Good luck to all of my fellow Final Fantasy Freaks!!!! Using these tips, you should have no trouble dealing with Sephiroth and less trouble with the weapons. If anyone has good info on getting secret characters e-mail me @ mccafferty316@yahoo.com

Here's the hint: The more materia you have, the more Aire Tam will have effect on you. So you should only equip a few materia only, so you won't die quickly cuz of Aire Tam!

This is an awesome way to beat emerald weapon without kinghts of the round or underwater materias.

Equip everyone in your party(mine was Cloud,Cid,and Vincent)with their ultamate weapons and for armor equip Mystiles.

Give cloud this combination,gravity-quadramagic(level over 3),w-magic,different plus materias,double cut(mastered if posible),enemy skill(having big guard),final attack- pheonix,and the rest with couter attacks.

For your #2 party member have them with mime.#3 patry member left with nothing.Now lets begin.Start the battle by casting big guard with Cloud.With party member #2 use attack.

Party member #3 use megaelixers.Once its Clouds turn use demi twice and it will be used 8 times totaling up to 79,992 damage on emerald.

As you progress use demi 2 and 3.Once those do less than 9,999 damage each time use Clouds double cut and mime it with party member #2.

Have party member #3 use megaelixers to keep your party at full health.Emerald will use his lazers on his arms 2 time so be prepared.

Don't use demi on the lazers.You can use the different demis however the level your quardramagic level is.

Keep this up and boom,Emerald is destroyed and you get the earth harp which can be traded for a master summon,master command,and master magic materias.

Now fight him(he has 600000000 HP)Make shure your at VERY high levels.

Fighting the Bronze Weapon

This freaked the heck outta me!!! And yes I died. In Gongaga go to the place where you fight the Dinosaur things.

This cheat only works on Disc 3! Use the Sylkis greens on him. He should get confused and be in berserk.

Next use two hypers on him. He should get massive in size now and the confuseness should be gone on him. Morph him an d you'll get the Bronze Star. Take it too the Kalm Traveler.

He should say something like, "tis this the Bronze Star? This will be enough to start my journey now!" He'll walk out and proceed down the stairs with no thanks. Now leave Kalm.

Board the Highwind and heads torward Cosmo Canyon...when there fly directly South till you get to Cactuar Island.

In the sand you'll see somethin.Like Ruby..you'll see a head lookin thing but instead of red it will be bronze.

Proceed to it. This is a secret Weapon monster with extreme powers. It holds 1,000,000 HP and continuosly only uses Shadow Flare and Ultima magic.

He is invulnerable to physical attacks and can only be hurt with Ice magic. I wasn't able to beat him and if you find him tell me.

Thanks.

Here's a good way to beat the stuff in the battle arena!
(I cant help getting those gay handicaps... eg.assesory broken, summon broken)
Well.... First... if u have someones ultimate weapon, use it! Second u need odin linked with hp absorb
mimic
ribbon
enemy skill with big guard
and ur usual stuff(slash-all/flash...2x/4x cut... etc)

In the first battle, cast big guard straight away. Then use odin.... in ur first battle, usually u'll use the ''steel bladed sword'' odin and not the ''gunge lance'' odin.
Ur Odin spell should cut them all in half straight away.

Then keep using mimic :)
Now u might ask... why do u need the hp absorb? It doesnt steal any life anyway!
Well. When u fight those semi-bosses or enemies with more than 10,000 basicly.

U'll use the ''gunge lance'' odin. If u just use odin and not with hp absorb. u'll be forced to heal and break the pattern.

Each time u use odin, if it does around 5000, u'll steal like 500. so it'll keep ur little cloud/tifa/barret or whoever ur char is happy ^^.

The only way to kill u when ur using this pattern is when........:
Ur command materias breaks, no mimic :(
Ur support materias breaks, no hp :(
Ur ribbon breaks and u get frog/mini/confu handicap.

Hope this helps u! :)

Every one probably already knows this, but that's okay. Anyways; the Emerald weapon is VERY weak against gravity. So, you pull Demi (1,2, or 3) on him and it does 9999 damage (Only on the main body, not the 'eyes')

This a special little treat I figured out, progress in the game until you reach junon for the first time, do NOT enter the town, some where near junon is a small forest, run around in it and keep fighting until you encounter yuffie ...now say the right stuff and she is yours...

When you get her insted of going into junon go all the way back to midger and go back to the shinra headquarters (make sure yuffie is in your party when you do this) now go up to the floor with the mayor, talk to him...AND SEE THE RESULTS!!!

This is how to get ZACK!!!
At the VERY begining after the first mission buy 99 potions and 99 antidotes, then on the second mission right after you jump off the train, then go the opposite direction you were supossed to, you will see some red guards...fight, after you win a siren will go off and more will just keep coming, you will always have the option to run, DONT!!!

Keep fighting. the enemys are fairly tough so equip cloud with ice and all and someone with restore materia. dont cure any one but cloud also save your ethers (the few that you get) when cloud casts ice it will kill all 3 enemies. keep on fighting without running away, to kill all the shinra guards you will have to non stop fight for 3-4 HOURS!! it will be long and hard. then when you killed them all go into the room they came out of, take the stuff, now finish the mission as usual. go through the game until you get to aires's home DONT go in, insted go to the guy in the sewer pipe, you will talk then leave. sleep at aires's house and when you get to wall market for the first time go strait to the resturant and buy food and say "it was all right, then you will get a coupon, take it to the item store and he will offer you one of three items, take the disenfectant. now go back to the guy in the sewer pipe with everything i said and talk to him, now go to the materia store near you (not wall market) and sell ALL of your materia, now go back to the guy in the sewer pipe, ZACK is him, he will stand up and run out.

Then keep progressing in the game until you reach kalm ZACK will be there... he will join your party!!! He has all clouds level one and two limits, a buster sword, a fire armlet, and a water ring, NOTE: you cant equip him with any other sword but his buster sword. he will have deathblow, counter, speed plus and destruct, all on master as materia, he will also be on lv30!!!

First off I'd like to say that I just LOVE all Final Fantasy games. My first cheat is that if you have Cloud's ultimate weapon and ultimate limit break, and if Cloud is at a pretty high level (level 60 or higher) his Omnislash does indeed take off more than even the Knights of the Round!

My Second cheat is that, you know the big greenish/blueish Huge materia that doesn't seem to give you and Master Materia? Well it does! If you happen to master every single materia in the game, and collect the master materia from the man in Kalm and the use all the other Huge Materia at Cosmo Canyon to get 3 more master Materia for a total of 6 master materia and all other materia in the game, then you can approach the greenish/blueish Huge materia and get the Mega materia. It gives you ever materia, commond and summon in the entire game all in one piece of materia.

Summon Emarld Weapon

This is hard but it is probably one of the best codes for the game.Follow these steps to get summon materia Emarld.

1.Go to Junon and talk to the old man who talks about the fish three times.

2.Then go to fort condor and rest in their beds 10 times.

3.Then go to Mideel(when its destroyed)and talk to the woman in the blue dress.She will mention her husband.

4.Then go to The Iciclle Inn town and talk to the boy who u got the snowboard from.Then talk to the man inside the same building.He will mention Mideel.

5.Now go to the man in the cave who tells you how many battles you've been in.Get your battles up to any number that ends in 99.(example:799)

6.Now go to Cosmo Canyon and talk to the man at the front gate.

7.Now go to Mount Nibel and go to the reactor.Go to the door that goes into the jenova room(NOTE:The door will not open just run into and that will finish this step)

8.Go to Cactuar Island and kill five cactuars.

9.Then lose all the money u make by using it all up by buying potions(NOTE:You will probably win 5000 gil so buy 5000 gil worth of potions)

10.Now your close.Go to Gongaga and talk to Zacks parents.

11.Now go back to the reactor and get into 20 battles outside the reactor.

End each battle with one person dead and the others with all their mp(hp can be on any amount)

12.Now go back into the reactor and go into the jenova room.The door will now open.Zack will be in the tube where jenova was.Cloud will run up to the tube and crack it open.

13.You will now have a choice:Save Zack or go for the materia:go for the materia(NOTE:If you choose go for Zack Sephiroth will come in and kill him anyway:If you go for the materia Zack will still die,Cloud will go into a trance and kill Zack)

(NOTE:Emarld summon does its air tram stam attack 8 times when summoned:If equipped with quad magic it will do its attack 32 times,it is easily the best summon:Dont do this attack to The first of the three final sephiroth's(it will make the next one three times as strong)

Once you have done it correctly you will fight a boss called Lost Number(If your party's levels are over 30 you shouldn't have any problem.Once the boss is defeated pick up the key in the safe and the Odin materia.

Go down to the basement and go through the door on the left.Press "O"in front of the coffin and Vincent pops up.Keep talking to him until he says"let me sleep" then go back down the corridor.Vincent will stop you and decides to go with you.Vincent is a formidable ally and has great limit break moves

I don't know if this is a code or just a regular in-game command but I've experienced the effects of this cheat myself so you can trust me...

--TO FIGHT SEPHIROTH #1 WITH 6 CHARACTERS--

I don't know if this is how to do it but it's what I did:

1) Cloud at level 63 with ultimate weapon, Yuffie at level 52 with ultimate weapon, & Cid at level 62 with Scimitar. (this may or may not matter)

2) These are your party members when you go down into the crater to meat Sephiroth.

3) When you are at the scene where the whole crew is floating in pain before Sephiroth choose the same party you already have, Cloud, Yuffie, and Cid. (At the top of the screne the game should be telling you to split your characters into two parties)

4) Hit the cancel button until you come to a second character select screen. Here you will select three other characters for your second party. (this may or may not matter but I chose, Nanoki, Tifa, and Vincent)

5) Hit the cancel button until you come to the main screen and enter battle. Only 2 characters will be knocked away and the rest will enter the fight.

6) If done right (and if this is what your really supposed to do) Sephiroth will be oddly to the right of the screen and you will be in the presence of your first chosen party.

7) After you kill off a portion of Sephiroth, the game should ask you if you are worried about the others or not. Say that you are and you will be taken to another battle screen with Sephhiroth on the left of the screen. Now your party will be your second batch.

--I hope I have really discovered something. If not, I SURE feel stupid!--

Have fun!

This may or may not be a cheat. I stumbled accross it when preparing for the battle against the first Sephiroth. Please tell me if this is just a regular in-game command:

TO FIGHT SEPHIROTH # 1 WITH 6 CHARACTERS

You can trust me on this info because I've experienced the results myself unlike many others on this board.

1) When working your way to the bottom of the crater, have Cloud, Yuffie, and Cid in your party.

2) When you reach the meating with Sephiroth and you are to choose who will be in your party, the game will tell you to choose two parties.

3) First choose the party you already have: Cloud, Yuffie, and Cid.

4) hit the cancel button until you come to another caracter select screen. Cloud should not be present. choose three characters of your choice for the second party. Hit the cancel button and and enter battle.

5) If I'm right, when you enter the battle, Sephiroth will be oddly to the right of the screen. Once you kill off a portion of him, the game should ask you if you are worried about the others or not. Choose that you are, and you should be brought to another screen with your second party and Sephiroth on the left of the screen.

To get the masumune: First, get mythril from the sleeping man near junon. Do not trade it for the great gospel or gold armlet. Then, on the second disc, when cloud is in mideel, use tifa to get another mythril from the sleeping man. Do the same with cid. Then on the third disc, defeat emerald and ruby and onyx(you need a white chocobo). Take these items, along with the three mythril to the weapon maker near gongaga. He will ask you to give him these items. If u say yes, he will take them and begin to make the masamune. He will ask you if you want to rest there. Say 'yes' and in the morning he will be gone. Look in the wooden box(the one that would normally have the gold armlet) and you will recieve the masamune. The masamune has 8 slots and has double materia growth. Also, I dont know what happens if you open the box with great gospel in it, so try it if you want.

You can change discs in the middle of gameplay and whenever a cutcene comes up, it will show one from that disc. one time, for a finale, I got weapon smashing into Junon, kinda anti-climactic huh?

also, here is how to kill emerald and ruby

Emerald
enter battle with one of your characters on 7777 fever, and here's the hard one have two mastered KoTr, (mimeing it doesn't work, because they will just mime the attack of the 7777 person) put these on the other two characters. let the 7777 character do thier thing and cast KoTr like crazy. the only other thing needed is a lit of turbo ethers and a few mega elixers.

Ruby
you have to have KoTr, or it is just about impossible to defeat him. put whatever materia you want on your people, but don't forget 3 sets of mime, final attack-revive, mega all, and dont forget KoTr. before the battle, kill two of your charecters, enter the battle, and revive them with life2 or cast phoenix on the claws. like the Emerald weapon battle, just cast KoTr like a maniac, and ruby will soon fade away shakily.

**all of these materias must be mastered. Put quadra magic and gravity together in one linked slot and put barrier and all in any slot. put this preferably on Cloud as he probably does the most magic damage. when you enter battle cast reflect immediately, then cast demi 3 on all using quadra magic, after all of this goes on the damage total should be upwards of 100,000 damage!!!

This is how you get Sephiroth.(This is the version that WORKS!)

You need 12 1/34 inch soldiers.
1 Masmune Blade(Gold Sauer)
2 Elixirs
1 Masamune Cape(Need to shoot all the enemies in the Fun Ride in Gold Saucer)

After you`ve got all that go to the Temple of ancients and there will be a man in a Black Cape outside.
Talk to him and he will say "Sephiroth has finnaly died"
If he says that you`ll enter the Temple.
Tseng will be there, but he is not hurt.
You`ll have to fight him, he is pretty easy.
Now go down until you get to the falling rock part.
Go to the pond on the left side, there you will see a flashback.
When the flash back is over Sephiroth will rise from the pond.
Run around the pond and talk to him(you gotta be quick)
He will come out of the pond and say "You are a true SOLDIER"
Ande he will join you!

To beat Ruby with ease:
Set your ATB to wait. Put Cait Sith in your party as person three. Go to the forest outside Mideal and fight some Head hunters. During the fight, give Cait Sith a hyper and make him manipulate one of the Head hunters. Cast Regen-all and make the Manipulated Head hunter do his second move on Cait Sith untill he gets a limit break. The other two must kill all the other Head hunters then kill themselves. Finish off the last Head hunter then fly to Ruby. Start the fight and he puts his claws in the ground immediatly. Use the limit break and while the slots are spinning he can't attack you (because of the ATB) tap square a lot which slows down the reels and makes it easier to get all the parts of Cait Sith's face (Game Over [kills all enemies]) Ruby dies and you can get your Gold Chocobo off the man in Kalm.

and something else (figuring out what that something else is as i post this. when i do i will post again)
i dont know what to do with the last unknown factor but as for the rest.
all characters are lvl 99. go to sephy, sephy kills Aeris. says stuff. enter fight with jenova.

BEFORE ANYONE DOES ANYTHING (including being attacked or counter attacking) use OMNISLASH. this kills jenova instantly. NO ONE BUT CLOUD, including Jenova, can attack. then that last factor goes into effect and sephiroth comes down and says "i bow to you" and joins party.

What about the plot you say?

Rufus doesn't die by emerald weapon, but infact lives. he takes on Sepiroth's goal to merge with the planet.

What supports this theory:
During an FMV switch CD's (im getting to it) and you will find you can play the game on any CD, so long as there isn't an upcoming FMV. this supports it because it shows that the entire game is on each disk, which means that there must be two different plot lines.

What denigrates this theory:
Use the game shark to get sephy. whenever a normal event pops up and the cast says a sentance about an occourance the game freezes. THIS MAY BE BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT ON THE SEPERATE PLOTLINE THOUGH.

End of rumor one

Rumor two... the elusive silver chocobo( or platinum for some i guess)
get two opposite sexed (duh) golden S-Class full stats chocobos. get either a Carob or Zieo (haven't had time to test it yet) nut and breed them. tah dah, a silver chocobo. supposedly it can do what the submarine can do as well as a gold chocobo's traits.

NOTE: it wasn't mentioned but it only makes sense that you have the underwater materia to submerge in the ocean (give a guidebook to the Kalm traveler)

MAY BE FOR THE JAPANESE VERSION ONLY

MAY....
Fighting the Onix (or Onyx) weapon
1. get a silver/platinum chocobo (see above)
2. go to the swamp where the midgar zaloom (that giant snakey thing with the E-skill Beta)resides.
3. submerge yourself in the swamp
4. fight

NOTE: the Onyx weapon was the weapon that got wasted at junon by the cannon.
ALSO NOTE: i heard this thing has more HP than the emerald weapon. i do not know the benifits of killing it yet as i haven't tested this one yet.
ALSO ALSO NOTE: this may be for the Jap version only (why wont those square guys just translate and not cut stuff? *sigh*)'
Final rumor of the day
(so far)

The Saphire weapon
This one im not sure of folks, i have merely heard it exists. if you know of it toss me an E-mail at Lighto@aol.com

subject: saphire weapon
i DO believe it works as its existance came to me from a reliable source AND it is shown in the FMV. i dont remember it getting killed either (im on disc three again (7th time or so playing it agian)).

toss me info about either of these if they are false or not and ill post again with your names guys/gals

In FF7 to get 7777 fever whenever you want, you only need a HP in excess of 7777 and the ability to cast MINI(or SHRIVEL item).

First, go to the beach right next to Yuffie's hometown. You should encounter a large turtle. Ignore him. He will not attack you if you don't attack him.

Cast MINI(or use SHRIVEL) on at least one of your party. Now they should only hit for 1 damage. Attack each member of your party until they reach any HP ending in 77(for example:3577, or 4677). Then un-MINI your party members, and ESCAPE the battle, by running away. Enter the menu, and By use of POTIONs and HIGH-POTIONS, raise all their HP to 7777.

A few warnings:

--->Do not raise their HP to 7777 while still in battle with the turtle, as this will make them immediately attack and ruin it.

--->Have a Chocobo or Highwind nearby, as if you randomly encounter any enemy, it will use up your 7777 fever, and drop all HP to 1.

--->Make sure you have all your materia set right to fight Emerald Weapon before you try this, as any change may affect your HP.

Now if you enter battle with Emerald Weapon with three members at 7777, then use W-SUMMON to cast KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND twice, then have the other two members mime it, you will kill him without a problem. He will only get off one or two hits at most.

to get better limit breaks faster
in order to do so you will need to take some time away from the walkthrough and fight a bunch of times if you have some hypers that will help what you do is let the enemy hit you until your limit break is able to be used then use the limit break keep doing so after about 5-12 times you should get another limit break (it depends on which limit breakyou are getting)

In Final Fantasy 7, I wanted to beat the weapons, and found that all the internet solutions were too complicated, needed things that I missed, so here's the lazy persons way to beat them:

RUBY: get hades, mime, knights of the round and w-summon,(they only have to be at level one, but i recommend level 2 in case you screw up) then cast hades THEN the knights (has to be in that order!), then mime until he dies. hades will paralize him, then the knights will hurt him severely. Mime until he dies, DO NOT BREAK THE PATTERN!

EMERALD:You probably got a whole heap of level ups from beating RUBY, so think you're ready...YOU'RE NOT!!! First things first, get 3 mimes, w-summon, final attack, pheonix, (both at level 3 or higher) knights of the round, level 2, and 3 hp absorbs. In your materia screen,slect one person to have all the goos stuff on, i recommend cloud, then on him pair final attack with pheonix (DUH!), then pair hp absorb with the knights, on the others, just put a mime paired with a hp absorb THAT'S IT NOTHING ELSE! Too much materia brings down yer hp, now most people say that you need an UNDERWATER materia, I say that it's a waste of time, if you fight him my way, then you will beat him in about 5 minutes. Once in battle, w-summon the knights, and MIME MIME MIME! do not break the pattern. If he hurts you, jst mime and yer hp will refill. Easy as that! the best part is, if he does somehow manage to kill you, pheonix will back you up! and, even if the the knights summon power is used up, you can w-summon them anyway! I know it sounds stupis, but if you w-summon them after thier summon power is used up, it will say so. the if you mime it, the summon will be used! snaeky hunh. Well thats all you need to know.

If you did not get the w-item in midgar you can still get it. Go to bone village and get as many guys you can to dig. Then dig near the bottom of the ladder. There is a x near the bottom of the ladder. It is on the left at the bottom of the ladder when you are facing it. I don't remember what item to find it under (the normal or good or the other one) though. Try every thing to get it then you can get 99 of almost any item. it is realy easy to get your guys to 99.

To gain the use of Sephiroth, Rufus, or the Turks use the ability Morph on a cactuar, if done correctly then the cactuar will morph in to a "hyper-drive", then take this into the great Glacier and find the ice woman who you get Alexander from. Fight her and use the Hyper drive in the battle. She will drop "X" materia as well as Alexander (this will not work if you have already obtained Alexander). Equip the "X" materia to one of your party except Cloud. Then fight a battle. The command X will appear on the battle menu. Use this command and the character will be instantly killed along with the enemy. When the battle is over chexk the menu and instead of the character there will be the enermy you fought. Use this on bosses to get a realy powerful charracter in exchange for a realy bad one (e.g.-Cait Sith). If you do use this cheat on cloud then the game will crash as soon as the battle is over.

First Have the guy in the middle cast MBarrier (Better to be Big Guard) on the guy to his left. Then have that guy take down his wall. That will make sephiroth use Shadows Flare. Then have the guy on the far right cast Knights Of the round and have the guy in the middle mime it. If done correctly Sephiroth will perish.

Having a hard time beating Ruby Weapon? Here's a little strategy that will help. First, kill of two members of your team, then equip everyone with the final attack/revive combo. (Don't use Phoenix. Fire spells heal the Ruby Weapon). Enter the battle with only one person alive, and Ruby Weapon will immediately put it's hands in the sand. Now continually cast Knights of the Round on Ruby Weapon. Ruby retialiates with Ultima, but with the final attack/revive combo, it's nothing to worry about. Just be sure to keep your magic points up by using megalixers or turbo ether. It takes 6 casts of Knights of the Round, so be patient.

You need a GameShark for this weird code. You must have the code 'Save Anywhere'. The code is:8009D2A6 0000

Now anyone who is reading this cheat should try this cheat on other people, because I 'accidentally' found this on Aeris. Save just before the part you're gonna name Aeris. Name her anything you want. Let the game progress, until Reno gets done with the 'stepping on flowers' part. Now reset the game (I mean push the L1+R1+L2+R2 thingie). Now load the game you just saved. Surprisingly, it continues at the part where Reno is stepping on the flowers. Play the game until Cloud gets ready to jump the hole in the floor. Notice when Aeris talks, her name isn't what you named her, it's "Aerith". Tell her to fight once, and look at her HP. Notice how weak her hits are. Now when the battle's over, look at her level. Like I said, please try this with other people.

Let me start off by saying if there is anyway that you can get your hands on the Japanese version of FF7 it's very cool. In this version,if you are extremely nice to Aries and mean to the other girls, than she will come back to life at the end. Of course, it's pretty hard to understand how to be nice to her if you can't read what she's saying.

Here's a cool little secret. If you go back into the Shinra Mansion on the 3rd CD, you will have a weird flashback explaining what ever happened to Zack after the Niblehiem incedent.

So, you want to know how to get the ultimate summon KNITES OF THE ROUND. Well it's not easy. First you must search around for 2 opposite sexed chocobos. They need to be in wonderful condition so I suggest you look around the snow area. After you find them you must race them up to atleast B class. Although if you want a really great chocobo to come oyt than A is always the best way to go. Make them in a stable using the certain nut that can only be obtained by stealing it from the red dragon on the small strip of green in the snow area.

Here's a tip that should always be used. Before mating ALWAYS save your game. Sometimes the baby won't turn out right and instead of gowing through the whole proccess again you can just reset and try again. This should create the River chocobo (blue)(you can use this chocobo to find the hiden materia cave on a small island next to Mideel) or the mountain chocobo (green)(you can use this chocobo to find a hiden materia cave in Wutia). You will have to wait for the original chocobos to rest and then mate them again to make the other colored chocobo. Now if the first time they mated a green chocobo was made than the blue is harder to mate, if the blue was first made than it's the other way around, so remember to save your game before mating again because it usually takes a long time for you to get the opposite sex and color chocobo. After this is done you must race these 2 to the B class. Mate them with the nut found in the Goblin Forrest in the upper right corner of the world. You must steal it from a Gobli n.

Use the nut to mate and this should create the mountain-river cocobo (black)(you can use this chocobo to find the materia cave on the large island of corel). Here comes the real challenge, you must find another wonderful chocobo and race them to the S class which is the highest and hardest race level to be in. You must get the black one to atleast A class. Mate them with the most expensive nut that you can buy from Chcobo Sage. (Chocobo Sage can be found in a small patch of green in the snow area. You can only get there by using your green chocobo or the Highwind) Mate them and you will get the Golden Chocobo. This chocobo can cover any area of land on the entire world map! Use him/her to get to the small materia cave on the very right hand corner of the world map. Inside you will find KNITES OF THE ROUND.

Without this materia there is NO WAY that you can beat the Ruby or Emerald Weapon.

Easy Chocobo Races
Hold L1, L2, R1 and R2 while racing a Chocobo - this will slowly restore your energy bar

Duplicate items
NB This will only duplicate items that are selectable during a battle and can not be used to duplicate the various Sources, Materia, Weapons or Armour

This trick requires the W-item Materia which is obtained after your party parachutes back into Midgar while playing Disc 3. After entering the subway tunnels in Sector 8, go towards the screen and you'll soon come to a dead-end with the W-item Materia. Equip the Materia on the character with the item you wish to duplicated.

When a battle begins, select the W-item entry on the battle menu then select an unimportant item and use it on any character. On the second item choice, select the item to be duplicated by pressing circle then pressing X to cancel your selection and increase the number of that item in your inventory. Repeatedly press Circle followed by X to continually duplicate that item.

Easy Battle Square handicaps
Rapidly press Square during the 'slot machine' handicap sequence in the Battle Square section at Gold Saucer. This will slow the slots down, allowing you to choose an easier handicap. this trick will also work during Cait Sith's Limit Breaks.

More...

You need to get a Great Chocobo from the southern continent. You also need to get a Good Chocobo from the Gold Saucer area.Breed these with a Carub Nut to get a Blue Chocobo. You can get a Carub Nut by killing the Red Dragons which are to be found in the green patches of the Northern Continent.

Next race your Good Chocobo and Great Chocobo in the Chocobo Races. When they're up to A Class, breed them again with a Carub Nut and guess what? You now have a Green Chocobo.

Get back to the races and this time race the Blue and Green Chocobos to get them up to A Class. Breed them with a Carub Nut and you'll get a Black Chocobo. Find out whether it's male or female then go to the Northern Continent. You now need to catch a Wonderful Chocobo that is the opposite sex to the one you've bred. Once you have one, take them both to the races and get them up to A Class. Now breed them with a Zeio Nut and you will get the elusive Gold Chocobo.

To get Cloud you must be pretty far into the game. (The trick starts in Chapter 4). In Machinery City you will find an ancient robot, even though you can't activate it, it is important, so remember it. From there go to the Royal Capital and enter the bar. Ask for some information; you should learn about the Saint Dragon, and a hunter will request to join your party. Recruit him and go to the Mining City.

When you get there, help the Saint Dragon. You should be able to get the Aquarius Zodiac Stone there. Take that back to Machinery City and use the stone on the robot. Once it becomes functional, you should leave. On your way out, you should find another machine, but you can't do any thing with it yet again.

Leave the city and head for Nerubes Temple. After fighting Worker #7, the Saint Dragon will transform into a young girl and you will receive the Cancer Zodiac Stone. Head back to Machinery City again. Use the Cancer Zodiac Stone to activate the ancient machine. It will bring Cloud back from the future and he will join you.

Now what you need to do is to find Aeris. She is in one of the towns, and you'll find her and buy some flowers from her. She will be attacked and Cloud will rush to the rescue. Some story will go by, and at the end of it, Cloud will join you officially.

This trick requires the W-Item materia. The materia is obtained after your party parachutes back into Midgar in Disc 3. After entering the subway tunnels in Sector 8, your party may walk away from the screen and encounter the Turks, or walk towards the screen to reach another subway section. Select the second choice and follow the subway tunnel until it ends at a dead end with the W-Item materia.

Equip the materia on the character with the item to be duplicated. When a battle begins, select the W-Item entry on the battle menu, select an unimportant item and use it on any character. On the second item choice, select the item to be duplicated by pressing Circle, then press X to cancel your selection and increase the number of that item in inventory. Repeatedly press Circle followed by X to accumulate 99 of the duplicated item. Note: This will only duplicate item selectable in battle and can not be used to duplicate the various sources, materia, weapons, or armor.

Refill HP
Cast Regen-All on your party, then quickly open the PlayStation lid when all opponents have been defeated. The game will be unable to load the victory screen, and may glitch while the HP for each party member fills. After everyone is at full health, close the lid to resume the game.

Easy Battle Square handicaps
During the "slot machine" handicap sequence, rapidly tap Square in the Battle Square section at Gold Saucer. The slots will slow down, allowing an easier selection of your handicap. Note: This trick will also work in a similar manner with Cait Sith's limit break.

Easy Chocobo races
While racing a Chocobo, hold R1 + R2 to slowly restore energy.

Cast magic three times at an opponent
Have all characters with Reflect status. Then, cast any attack spell on all three of your characters. The spell will bounce three times into the enemy, each with the attack power of a full spell.

Hints
Extra money
Sell a Master level All materia to get 1.4 million Gil. Since another All materia will appear when the original reaches master level, there will be no loss in usefulness.

Prevent back attacks
If a battle begins with a "Back Attack", press L1 + R1 to turn your character around before your opponents get a shot.

Nibelheim safe combination
The combination to the safe in the old mansion in Nibelheim that contains the key to enter the basement (and get Vincent) is Right 36, Left 10, Right 59, Right 97. Note: Push the button used to talk to people to select each number. After opening the safe and fighting the monster inside, a key to the other part of the mansion and Odin summon materia will be found.

Finding Vincent
Take the key from the safe that contained the Odin summoning materia in Nibelheim. After defeating the Boss, Lost Number, walk down into the basement. Open the door that was previously locked (right before enter the room with Sephiroth). Talk with Vincent, after finding him inside the purple coffin. When leaving the room, he will offer to join the party.

Turtle's Paradise prizes
The Turtle's Paradise restaurant in Wutai has hidden six flyers with their advertisement in various locations. Collect all six flyers and return them to the restaurant owner to receive a prize consisting of a Power Source, Guard Source, Magic Source, Mind Source, Speed Source, Luck Source, and a Megalixer. The flyers are located in the following places:

Sector 5 slums, on the wall upstairs in a house on the east side of town.
Posted on the bulletin board of the lobby of Shinra HQ.
On the wall next to the item shop in the Ghost Hotel at Gold Saucer.
Attached to the wall at the Tiger Lily Arms Shop in Cosmo Canyon.
On the wall next to the inn keeper's desk.
In Yuffie's basement (next to Turtle's Paradise), check the banner on the wall outside the trap room.
Materia to beat Weapons
Use the following steps to make the battle with the Emerald and Ruby Weapons easier. Note: This must be done after Meteor is summoned and the Highwind is in your possession.

1. Before fighting either Weapons, find and equip the Morph Matera before returning to the Undersea Reactor in Junon. Go through the sight-seeing tunnel (where the ocean can be viewed) and enter battles until the Ghost Ship appears. Use Morph when the enemy is low on HP to change them into an item called "Guide Book".

2. Leave Junon and return to Kalm. Go to the last house on the right, next to the bar. Go upstairs, where an old man will be encountered. He will explain how he wants to understand the afterlife, and ask you to find three items: Guide Book, Earth Harp, and Desert Rose. He will notice that you already have Guide Book and give you the Underwater Materia.

3. Equip the Underwater Materia. It does not gain AP and will not duplicate. This Materia removes the time limit when Emerald Weapon is encountered.

4. Defeat Emerald Weapon (a few mastered Mime and Knights of the Round will be helpful) to receive Earth Harp. Take it back to Kalm and give it to the old man to receive Master Summon (Red), Master Magic (Green), and Master Command (Yellow) Materia. These Materia can not level up or duplicate, but have all the abilities of their single counterparts. Master Summon grants all Summons for as long as MP are available. A similar effect is also used by Master Magic. Master Command is a little difficult to work with, but is still worth it.

5. Equip the new Materia and ram into Ruby, who is minding its own business in Gold Saucer. With luck, the single character Ruby allows to stay and fight will be ready to deal with this massacre.

6. Defeat Ruby and take Desert Rose to the man in Kalm to receive a Gold Chocobo. You probably will already have one, as Knights Of The Round is required for the Weapons battles. A good combo to use against the Weapons is HP Absorb + Knights (mega damage and mega boost in HP).

Easier Ruby Weapon battle
Kill two members of your party before fighting Ruby Weapon. Have the Summon Phoenix materia equipped on the remaining character, then run into Ruby Weapon. When fighting, Ruby will only attack the live character, and therefore not use the Quicksand attack. Wait until the Weapon sticks his claws in the ground. Then, use Summon Phoenix to attack it and revive the dead party members. All three party members are now available for the battle.

Another strategy is to have all characters equipped with the Final Attack + Revive or Phoenix materia combination. Have one character equipped with a weapon or armor containing Knights Of The Round + MP Turbo. Also have a Mastered Magic Plus materia (not MP Plus) somewhere else in the weapon or armor of each character. Have all three people wear the Mystile armor (first from Midgar Raid, second from North Cave, third from Ultimate Weapon when it is over Midgar). This will prevent Ruby's Ultima attack from injuring your characters. Kill two characters, then enter the battle with Ruby Weapon. When the Weapon's claws are in the ground, revive the two dead characters, and have W-Summon cast Knights Of The Round and have the other two characters Mime. This will hit Ruby Weapon for 9999 damage each time. It should be defeated after eight to ten rounds of this type of attack.

Another strategy is to kill two of your characters, then equip the following materia combination: HP Absorb + Knights Of The Round, W-Summon, Mime. Use a hero drink, then summon the Knights Of The Round. Each time he/she will gain over 9,000 HP points. Then, simply Mime this attack until the Weapon is defeated.

Another strategy is to use Mime in addition to the Final Attack + Phoenix materia combination. Get Cloud's limit bar full, and start the battle. Ruby will take your other two characters away with Quicksand. Attack with Omnislash. At Cloud's next turn, select Mimic and Cloud will use the Omnislash again. Repeat this attack. The only drawback to this strategy, is the need for a little bit in the limit meter. Without it, Cloud will jump forward after a brief flash, and Ruby Weapon will attack. When Cloud does the limit, the game will act as though you had a full limit bar, and delete all that remains in it. To effectively make this trick work, make sure Ruby Weapon hits Cloud before doing the Omnislash again.

Easier Emerald Weapon battle
Equip a member of your party with a Gravity materia, at any level. It will hit the Emerald Weapon for 9,999 damage. Using this and the Quad-Magic combo can take almost 40,000 hit points from one attack round alone.

Another strategy is to equip the following materia combination: HP Absorb + Knights Of The Round, W-Summon, Mime, Underwater (and nothing else). Use a hero drink, then summon the Knights Of The Round. Each time he/she will gain over 9,000 HP points. Then, simply Mime this attack until the Weapon is defeated. Keep your materia number as low as possible, the more materia equipped, the more the Weapon's Air Tam Stomp will effect the party. For example, if four materia are equipped the Air Tam Stomp will take off 4444 HP points, five materia will result in 5555 HP points and so on.

Extra Gil
When at the Gold Saucer Prison, go out in the desert and fight a enemy called Cactuar. Defeat him to get 10,000 Gil. This creature can also be found at Cactuar Island on the south-east area of the map, or south of Cosmo Canyon.

Exchange Gil for GP
When at Gold Saucer go through the welcome sign then come back out again. Keep on doing this until a man appears in the far background, near the save location. Approach him, and he will ask if you want to change Gil into GP. Answer yes to trade up to 10,00 Gil into 100 GP.

Key to Sector 5
Late in the game, go to the Number 7 gate at Midgar. A man outside the door will say that he lost his key to the city at an excavation site. The only excavation site is at Bone Village. Go there and talk to the man that asks about what you are searching. Reply "normal treasure" and place your excavators on the upper area. Eventually, a box will turn up after multiple digs. Search it in the morning to find the key.

Cloud mercenary flashback
After Cloud has had his coma, go to the basement at the Shinra Mansion. Enter the library and Cloud have a flashback and remember how he became a mercenary.

Back room of Cosmo Canyon General Store
The General store in Cosmo Canyon has a back room that is roped off when your characters first arrive. Check back after Meteor has been summoned. The rope will be gone, allowing your characters to walk back in the room and get an Elixir, Magic Source, and the "Full Cure" Materia.

Sleeping old man
Directly East of Junon is a small cave that is only accessible using the Highwind or riding on a blue/gold Chocobo. The old man in the cave can tell you how many times your party has fought or escaped. You can also get helpful items from him, but the last two digits in the times you have fought must be the same. For instance, speaking to him after you have fought 699 times may get you the Bolt Ring.

Date with Tifa
Never talk to Aeris unless it is vital for progression of the game. Then, Cloud will get a date with Tifa after Aeris dies.

Date with Barret
Never talk to Aeris or Tifa unless it is vital for progression for the game. Then, once Kalm has entered for the first time, Barret will ask Cloud for a date.

Bahamnant ZERO Summon Materia details
Walk around after boarding the Shinra No. 26 spaceship on disc two. Your party will be able to go down to the space pod or up the ladder to the right to the huge materia. Go to the huge materia and use the talk button at the tall glass to speak with Cid. He will explain the controls in this part of the game. Talk again at the case and enter the password Circle, Square, X, X to collect the Key Item "Huge Materia". After travelling to Cosmo Canyon later in the game, talk to Bugenhagen. He will take your party up to his observatory. Approach to the Blue huge materia and get closer. Your party will receive the Bahamnant ZERO summon materia.

Easy Power Source for super strength
Go to the meltdown reactor at Gonganga town. Then, get into a battle with a Heavy Tank. Morph it to get a Power Source to build your strength up by a point. Repeat this as needed to build as much strength as needed.

Status display
The highest number shown on the status menu is 255. However the game will allow items on that screen to be built higher, but will not display anything greater than that number.

Extra Ribbons
Go to Geas Cliff. In the first cave after wrapping around to the bridge overlooking the door that was used to enter, walk straight to enter a cave with a box. Open it to find a ribbon. For a third ribbon, go to North Cave and morph a Master Tonbury. It is helpful if it is stopped first.

Extra Tetra elemental
Go to Cactuar Island in the south-west portion of the map. Explore until a Cactuar appears. Then, morph it to get the Tetra elemental.

Maneuvering the Highwind
The Highwind can be turned sideways or flown backwards without turning around. Hold Square and press the D-pad in the desired direction while flying.

Cosmo Canyon song
You can play the Cosmo Canyon song on your own by going to Tifa's house in Nibelheim. Then, press Square, Square, Square, X, Square, Circle, Circle, R1 + X, Circle, R1 + Square, R1 + Square, R1 + Square, R1 + X, Circle, R1 + X, R1 + Square, R1 + X, Circle, R1 + X, R1 + Square, Circle, Square, X, Circle, Square, X, Square. Note: This serves no purpose in the game.

Getting a Gold Chocobo
Get a Green Chocobo by mating two Great Chocobos or two Good Chocobos. Obtain Carob nuts by buying some the Gold Saucer Wonder Square for 500 GP or by stealing them from the Vlakarados creatures found near the Bone Village. Get the Chocobos to the S class, then give them a Carob nut. Race the Green Chocobo until it is in S class. Then, use a Carob nut and mate the same or different Chocobos. Then, race the Blue Chocobo until it is in S class. Use a Carob nut and mate the Blue and Green Chocobos. You will get a Black Chocobo. Race it until it is a S class Chocobo. Then, go to the Chocobo Tracks around the Icicle Inn area and get a Wonderful Chocobo. Race it until it is a S class Chocobo. Find the Zeio Nut on an island north of the Chocobo Farm. You can steal it from a Goblin that your party fights. If you do not steal anything at first, try a few more times then kill them and try again. Mate the Black Chocobo with the Wonderful Chocobo using a Zeio Nut. You should now have a Gold Chocobo that can go anywhere on the map.
