SUM FF7 TIPS

Here's sum stuff u gotta know about Final Fantasy 7.

when i get the chance i'll seperate this more... imma try to find an put some other things u might wanna knoe...




Limit Breaks


Ok ....there are certain things that u must knoe about limits. ALWAYZ USE DEM!!!.
- Fer the first limit in a lvl, you'll have to use that a certain # of times in order 2 gain the other, maybe round 10x-15x more or less

- getting to a new lvl of limits might take longer... the character must kill a certain amount of enimies... maybe around 100 so that the new lvl limit will come...

- u can "skip" limits but i think that its kinda stoopid unless u need that limit to fight a boss. but u need to learn all yer limits in order to get yer lvl 4 limit.

- "skipping" limits is when u gain a limit for another lvl but didn't gain all limits in yer current lvl... probably because you killed more enimies than u did using limits..

- i put the gaining of the lvl 4 limits fer each character in their character bios (if its up)...


Chocobo Raising and all dat Chocobo goodness...
Raising chocobos takes alot of time and money so if u need them (especially fer Knights of the Round) then u should take time to do so...


- OK... b4 moving on about the chocobos... U need to knoe first how to attain them...

- Now.. u should most likely have the highwind for easy transportation and to get the things u need to attain the special chocobo's.

- Ok... remeber chocobo ranch? yeah.. u need to buy stables to let yer chocobos stay in

- U can pay fer i think for like 6 stables max.

- Now u gotta go hunting fer chocobo's. Make sure that when u are that u have chocobo lure equipped in yer party. (i'll talk about where u can find the types u need and how to determine their sex b4 capturing them later)

- oh .. u might wanna stop by chocobo sage's house once in a while... (his green chocobo has an enemy skill materia juss talk to it) He tells u how u can get the special chocobos. Don't count on him given u the answers u want straight cuz he tends to ferget.

- be sure to talk to Chole (that guyz' sister) in chocobo ranch... she'll record the things that sage tells u so u don forget.

- I suggest dat u buy some tantal greens mostly becuz it raises all 3 stats: Speed, Intelligence, Stamina. Raising these stats are important when it comes to racing them in Gold Saucer.

- U should probabaly feed them a $h!t load so that u could max out there stats and they could race at their best.
- If u think yer ready, then go race them in Golden Saucer.


Chocobo Racing (not the game. ish da 1 in Gold Saucer)



- Make sure that yer chocobo is good enought to race. Feeding yer chocobo will make it like u more there for making it listen to u more and will give u easier control.

- U have a decision in which course to take. The decision is really yers but i would suggest that u choose the long route if yer chocobo has the speed and the short route if yer chocobo has better stamina.

- Always make sure that you are on manual (press select while racing) this will give u better control and u can take greater pride in winning.

- I also suggest that u press square alot until yer chocobo starts running faster... thing is that it will slowly drain away the samina meter

- hmm.. i knida fergot which two buttons u have to hold in order to slowly fill up yer stamina bar so i hold all of the top buttons (i think ish juss R1 an R2). this makes it the drain slower

- Whenever u come to a part where you start slowing down like at the water or space part of the track... make sure u sprint. it will help u alot by giving u time to take the lead or catch up.

- don't drain yer energy.... if u need more help.... talk to Ester and she'll tell u the basics.

- Racing chocobos raises their rank if u win three times (doesn't hav ta b consecutive) High ranks will give u greater chances of getting a special chocobo

- you'll notcie that racing a special chocobo will not slow down during some of the parts where u do.

- OH yeah... theres dis dood.... daym fergot his freakin name... anywayz he rides a black chocobo. He's a challenge to u becuz no matter how good yer chocobo is, he alwayz seems to have higher stats den u. (this doesn't mean he's unbeatable). Race dirty when u ride against him.


Gaining Special Chocobos



REMEMBER THAT THE HIGHER THE RANK, THE MORE CHANCES OF GAINING A SPECIAL CHOCOBO...

- ok there are blue chocobos (river) green chocobos (mountain) black chocobos (mountain & river) and Gold chocobo's (all dat + ocean)

- WARNING: OK IF U DON WANNA KNOE HOW TO GAIN DEM DIS WAY DEN DON'T READ THIS PART ANY FURTHER. IF U WANNA FIGURE OUT ON YER OWN DEN JUSS TALK TO CHOCOBO SAGE ONCE IN A WHILE

- Gaining blue or green chocobo's are by the same process. so getting one should be pretty simple. thing is that i dunnoe about what sex u get after breeding. (most likely depends on what sex the great and the good chocobo are)

- U need to mate a great chocobo and a good chocobo using a carob nut. I think u need to steal dem from an enemy called Vlakorados. It's located near bone village so run around the plane fer a while and steal it when u find it.

- ok, i think that getting whichever color is all totally chance. so save yer game b4 every breeding so u could juss reset and try again.

- once u get one... the parents of dat chocobo will not be able to f!@# anymore... hehheh(wonder y..) so u gotta get a new pair of great and good chocobo to f!@#

- k.... dis is da tricky part. Now u have to mate the blue and green chocobo and use a Carob nut as well. But chances are that u might not get the right sexes. so u gotta try to get another pair of chocobo but have them the opposite sex as last time...

- once u get that u should have no trouble getting the black chocobo

- to get the "ultimate" chocobo or gold chocobo, u gotta find a wonderful chocobo (not bein sarcastic. ish really called a wonderful chocobo) to do it wit da black chocobo.

- use a zeio nut and wait fer it to come. you'll knoe if its a gold one if u look at its eyez closely, notice that they are kinda green and their body is more "butter" like or "cheese" hehheh...


Determing chocobo sex/type b4 capture



k... i might be a lil etchy on dis so bare wit me now... cuz i havn't played in a while

- ok, the location's of finding the chocobo's are one thing... but to determine chocobo "type" and its sex is another...

- The chocobo's u really need fer breeding should only be caught in these areas: Gold Saucer area, Icicle Inn area, and the Mideel area.

- ok the ones you'll be lookin for will most likely have a rare type of enemy (sometimes 2 of the same type) wit the chocobo. The enemy's position also determines the sex.

- from what i can remember... near the Icicle Inn area.. the Wonderful Chocobo hang wit the rabbits. i think that when its only chillen wit a rabbit in the back row... thas most likely a Wonderful Male.. having two rabbits in the front is prolly Wonderful Female... (it might be the other way around)but at least u knoe what yer lookin fer now.

- capture of a chocobo wit mixed monsters or no rabbits near Icicle Inn will probably result into getting Weak chocobo.

- in the mideel area are the Great and Fair chocobo.

- Great chocobo are with those purple roly poly thingys...i think that the females are wit two of them in the back row. Males are juss chillen wit one of dem...

- Finding Good chocobos shoudn't be too hard to attain.. Their located in the Gold Saucer area and i'm not too sure who dey roll wit...juss figure if they are wit rare enimies (or enimies u hardly seem dem wit)


Helpful Battle Tactics

Note that u will need ALL the summon materia so that it could be easier to withstand the power of the WEAPONS. The main materia u should have is W-summon, Pheonix, Knights of the Round, Final Attack, W-item and probably Hades. This is essential in aiding u towards victory...

DUPLICATING ITEMS
First of all, if ya don't knoe how 2 duplicate yer items then continue reading tha next 2 or more sentences.


- First of all u WILL need W-item materia, u know tha little yellow rock. N-E wayz, u get dat frum the subway(the place where u last fight the Turks), and 2 get there, u need 2 keep going down until u see a save point, and the materia is right next 2 it.

- After getting it do whatever u planed 2 do. If u missed it, then go 2 bone village. I'm not actually sure it's there coz i got this frum sumwhere else.

- Go dig up on the dirt that looks like an x. It's color is different frum the other dirt, it's more yellowish. Pick whatever or try all three(try good treasure, normal treasure or lunar harp). I've never tried it before, but it might werk.

- Once u get the materia, equip it on a fighter yer using(most likely Cloud) but jus eqip it whenever u fight 2 make it werk.

- Now dis is how u do it. Use it during battle and duplicate the items you want up to 99 times but the items have to be 2 or more. If you twy it wit 1 item, you'll probably loose that peice of sh*t FOREVER!!! HA HEH HA.ahem.. Sorry bout that ha heh ha thing. Heh heh. Just want it to sound powerful.

- Go 2 items and select da item u wanna duplicate. Den use 1 item then cancel, pick(don't use) and cancel and keep doing dat. The only bad thing is that you can not duplicate weapons, armor, some items, and the sources... But note that this is a very useful tactical trick when it comes to fighting the WEAPONS and those other "hard @$$ bosses"..

Fighting the WEAPONS

(y da f!@# R dey harder den Sepiroth?....f!@#$n chet)

Fighting Ruby WEAPON
Ok, here's how 2 beat Ruby (probably definitely) hella faster than "normal" battle.


- First of all eqip W-summon and Knights of the Round, and Hades and Mime x3 and a W-item, Final Attack and Pheonix jus in case he kills yer team, it might heal him but it won't b much since yer gonna take more off him then he gained.

- CAUTION: I 4got. B4 u fight let 2 of yer party members knocked out.... U MUST do this or yer probably get fuct and die like a byatch. Doing so will make Ruby put it's claws in da ground.

- Right in da beginning use w-item or life2 to revive yer partners.

- Den summon dat Hades guy 2.

- dis will most likely "freeze/paralyze" Ruby's @$$ and den use Knights of the Round 2 start kickin sum mo chet out of em.

- Do this reapedidly, and if u changed da battle speed put it on normal or in da middle. Cuz if it's 2 fast, the freeze will wear off and he'll do what u tied 2 do 2 him, which is kick yer............aaaaahhh u knoe. U will notice if it where's off when he starts moving.

- If Ruby screws sum of yer team up, use megalixers, and if he starts 2 poison or put dem 2 stone or whetever status changes, dat's what u got W-item 4. Use what chu can 2 heal dem. If ya dont have n-e thing 2 cure them of there weak status, den yer in big trouble.

- Well dat's all 4 Ruby, but 2 beat Emerald Weapon (da 1 under water) i on't think dere's an easy way 2 kill him.

- winning the battle gives u a desert rose... trade it wit dat guy in Kalm town and he'll give u a gold chocobo (if u still need it)


Fighting Emerald WEAPON



to get under water materia..morph that haunted ship monster in Junon's under water reactor and it will become a guide book. be sure to use sense to keep tabs on its hp..u don wanna kill him..u need to morph him. so if yer in a high lvl.. use weak magic and attacks. give da man in kalm the book and he'll giv u the under water materia in exchange
LOL..u knoe what... dis sommama bish really pisses me off... i think he's like the hardest Weapon to fight... he has cheap @$$ attacks and most of them are consecutive... note that if u want a challenge den ferget about equippin underwater materia... u have around 20 min. to take his @$$ out b4 "drowning"..be sure that u have Final Attack-Phoenix linked together...you'll need it... i suggest that u lvl dem up so that just in case u get KO'd more den once...
- he has 2 "eyez" on each shoulder.. one color fer physical damage and one other fer magical drain..

- now...be sure u got most of the same materia equipped wit chu from Ruby fight... u need mime, possibly 2x or 4x cut materia, you'll need the enemy skills magic hammer (fer magic "recharge") white wind (fer healing *note that the one who casts it only heals the amount his/her current hp is at) and especially big guard (casts haste, and both Barrier and MBarrier)

- b sure to have megalixer's and turbo ether's handy too...(rember dat w-item trick...) organize yer items fer battle so u can find it easier..
- this weapon has an "instant kill" attack....causing 9999 on each party member (fergot what da f!@# it was called..) anyway thas y u need that final attack-phoenix paired...

- i've also been told that loading too much materia causes this weapon's attacks to be strong...iono...i don listen to that tho...

- k.....u need to start wit casting big guard... den use w-summon and summon of course the mighty Knights of the Round to pummel his @$$ wit who knoes how much damage...

- thing is this @$$ hole has a sh!@ load of hp...so even summoning dem 5 times won't be enough to take him out..

- be sure that yer other characters mime the attack....

- keep doin this and try stayin alive... even wit all da stuff u got.....its gonna be a tough battle

- yer spoils will be something called an earth harp...give it to da guy in kalm and he'll giv ya da master materias for magic, summon, and command..... oh heyll yeeeah!!!


What I believe and some things the official strategy guide won't tell you.



- The materia called Hp<-->Mp switch.....that "secret materia"...yeah..... i think that that materia is totallyWOTRHLESS!!! A Peice of chet!!! ahem ..not only do u have a higher chance of getting KO'd but y do u need so much Mp anyway?... u should have more than enough in battle... iono.. maybe it is useful...but right now i dunnoe how..

- U knoe about that Turtle's paradise flyers and in the strategy guide it tells u if u see all of dem and go to that dood in Turtle's Paradise, he suppose to give u sources like speed source, mind source and all that stuff... i tried that 5h1t and it didn't F!@#$n werk!!! arghh...or maybe i just didn't do it right....

- ok...there's something called a Curse Ring which can only be attained while Mideel is still....well ..a town.. anywayz... u have to find a key near the "Pharmacy" located in the top left part of the buildings.. u gotta cross a brige and all dat shtuff.. anywayz juss keep pressin circle and u might get it... try to use the key in a shop in Mideel, and lie to the guy if he asked u about the door.. he'll give u an accessory called Curse Ring.. equipping it will boost u up during battle... thing is its called Curse Ring... so i think u have death sentence automatically casted on u in the beginning of battle. i don think that even the things that protect u from death can save u....

- There's an enemy skill called Choco Buckle...or sumptin like dat... u gotta feed the right lvl chocobo a certain amount of greens and then cast L4suicide on its @$$...doing this should cause it to cast chocobuckle on someone (just hope its the one wit da enemy skill materia)

- There's also a ??? and a roulet enemyskill.... they are common in the Final Dungeon so go try getting it...its kinda hard to get roulette tho.....you'll see y...


I think there's more but i can't think of any right now... imma post up more if i remember anythin else
