Final Fantasy VII - The Complete Guide

Aeris Gainsborough

Aeris is a young flower merchant. She sells her flowers in Midgar. Although physically weak, she possesses great magical skill. Aeris is sometimes annoying to play with. Her attacks are weak and she dies at the end on disc 1. Don't play with her unless you really like her. She's a waste of experience points.

How to get the Great Gospel

When you have Dio's buggy, go to Costa Del Sol and enter the ship. When you arrive in Junon, go with the buggy to the Sleeping miners cave (Behind Midgar's mountains). When your battle total ends with two equal digits (e.g. 544, 288 or 44 etc) then he will wake up and give you a piece of mythril. Give this mythril to the weaponsmith (Located in a house southeast of the Gold Saucer). Now open the box on the first floor. It contains Great Gospel.

Battle Tips

Setting speed

Remember that you can always adjust the speed of the battles. Go to the menu screen and select "Config". You can also select the order of materia use.

Pre-emptive Attacks

Sometimes, the enemies start behind your back. To quickly turn and lower their attacks press and hold the L and R buttons for a fraction of a second. Then let go. The characters will start running, but quickly turn around to face the enemy. Use the "9 and 3 key for PC version.

The Battle Arena

In the Gold Saucer is the Battle Arena. Here you can fight to earn Battle points. These points can be exchanged for good prizes. To fight, simply talk to the lady at the counter and pay 10 Gp to enroll. You'll have to face 8 enemies alone. If you win, you'll get Battle points. But after each round you'll get handicaps which make it harder to fight.
