Unlimited items:
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 and pick the item to be duplicated. Answer "OK" to confirm the selection and choose the person to receive the item. When selecting the second item, choose the item to be duplicated. Answer "OK" to confirm the selection, but cancel before choosing a person to receive the item. The amount of that item should have increased by one. This may be repeated to increase the total number of that item to 99.
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.
Hint: Gaining HP:
Equip a poison ring, or another accessory that
can absorb poison attacks. Then simply poison yourself. Instead of gradually
lowering HP, it will slowly raise. This is especially useful when running
low on MP.
Cast magic three times at an opponent:
Have all characters have Reflect status. 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.
Hint: 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.
Fight an Epiolnis (the multi-colored bird) in the Ancient Forest. Steal a Wizard Bracelet from it, and sell it for 12,000 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: Getting back into Midgar:
Revisit Midgar at any time on disc 3. The man
walking around outside the wall will say that he lost his key to sector
5 around the Bone Village. Travel to the Bone Village on the Highwind or
Gold Chocobo. Dig for normal treasure, on the top half (upper level) of
the site. Keep searching until the key to sector 5 is discovered. The party
may now move in and out of Midgar freely.
Hint: Easy Bizzaro Sepiroth battle:
Cast one Mastered Knights Of The Round for a
one hit Bizzaro Sephiroth battle.
Hint: 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: 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.
Hint: Date with Tifa:
Never talk to Aeris unless it is vital for progression
of the game. Cloud will get a date with Tifa after Aeris dies.
Hint: Date with Barret:
Never talk to Aeris or Tifa unless it is vital
for progression for the game. Once Kalm is entered for the first time,
Barret will ask Cloud for a date.
Hint: 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.
Hint: Extra Tetra elemental:
Go to Cactuar Island in the south-west portion
of the map. Explore until a Cactuar appears. Morph it to get the Tetra
elemental.
