NIBELHEIM SAFE CODE
This question gets asked so much, I had to do something about it
The code is: Right 36 - Left 10 - Right 59 - Right 97
After you open the safe, You'll fight the Lost Number, Don't worry, he's
not very hard. After the Fight, you'll get the Following:
Cosmo Memory (On the "Items Won" screen after defeating Lost Number)
Basement Key (In the Safe) See below on how this can get Vincent to join
you Odin Materia (On the Floor next to the safe)
...Now isn't that worth wasting 20 seconds opening the safe???
TIFA'S PIANO CHART
Say you remember how the melody goes and press the Following Buttons:
X, S, T, L1+T, L1+S, X, S, T, L1+X, O, X, S, X
If you play it in Disc 1, you might get 1 Gil
If you play it in Disc 2 or 3 you might get an Elemental Materia or
Tifa's LV 4 Limit Break (Final Heaven)
ULTIMATE WEAPONS
This is a short list telling where to get all the best Weapons
Ultima Weapon - Cloud
This Weapon Can be found after defeating Ultimate Weapon
Missing Score - Barret
Bring Barret on the Raid to Midgar (Disc 2) and when you Climb the
Sister Ray, You'll find it in a green chest along the way
NOTE: If you don't bring Barret, the chest won't even be there
Premium Heart - Tifa
This can be found in Midgar, (Disc 2 or 3) after you've found the Sector
5 Key, (see Below for instructions on how to obtain the key) go to the
Wall Market. In the item shop with the Pink machine that shot at you
earlier, walk up to it and Push O, you'll get Tifa's Best weapon

HP Shout - Cait Sith
An easily overlooked weapon. Return to the Shinra Building during the
raid on Midgar near the end of disc 2 and search the lockers on the 64th
Floor. (You may have seen it before, but Cloud refuses to take it)
Death Penalty - Vincent
Another easily overlooked weapon. After you get the Submarine (or a
green, black, or Gold Chocobo) travel to a waterfall near a lake by
Gongaga, and with Vincent in your party, enter a secret cave behind the
falls. You'll meet Vincent's old Flame, Lucresia and learn more about
his past, return later to get Vincents LV4 Limit Break and The Death
Penalty.
Venus Gospel - Cid
This Weapon can be gotten anytime after the Rocket Huge Materia quest,
return to Rocket town and talk to the Old man who gave you the Yoshiyuki
(See below) keep talking to him and eventually, He'll give you Cid's
Best Weapon.
LEVEL 4 LIMIT BREAKS
This is probably common knowledge, but you need to have learned all the
other limit breaks before learning these, this is a short list telling
how to get them:
Omnislash - Cloud
Win 32000 Battle Points in one trip (disc 2 or 3) at Battle Square in
the Gold Saucer and buy this.
Note: You can also get Omnislash in Disc 1, but it costs 51200 BP!!!!
Catastrophe - Barret
After the North Corel Huge Materia quest (Win or lose, it doesn't
matter) talk to the woman in the house near the Inn to receive
Catastrophe
Final Heaven - Tifa
Found by playing the right notes on Tifa's Piano (Disc 2 or 3)
(See piano chart above)
Great Gospel - Aeris
In Disc 2 or 3 getting this is a Cinch, but by that time, Aeris is
already dead!!! So, I'll tell you how to get it in disc 1: After getting
the Buggy, Return to Costa Del Sol and Drive the Buggy INTO town, then,
talk to a man on the docks, and, for 100 Gil, He'll let you ride back to
Junon. Leave and You'll see you still have the Buggy. Drive it across a
lake to the Northwest of town and talk to the man inside and he'll tell
you how many times you fought. If the last 2 digits of that number (of
battles fought) match up (EX. 255, 466 ETC.) He might give you a Key
item called "Mythril" (if he gives you a Bolt ring, just try again till
he gives you Mythril) Bring the Mythril to the man who lives in the
House to the North of Gongaga town, and he'll offer you one of 2 boxes,
The big one by the bed has a Gold Armlet in it and the Little one
upstairs has Aeris' LV 4 Limit, Great Gospel, Inside it!!!! (Whew)

INCREASES
Here's a little Something New: Increases, That is, good places to gain
Exp, Gil, AP and Win a few Items in the Process!!!
Build Up Areas:
Disc 1:
After Getting the Buggy, Return to Junon and go to the Room below the
Elevator that Rufus used Earlier and Hit The Red Alarm Box on the wall,
Monsters will Appear in the room, These enemies range in anywhere from
900-1500 Exp, 2000-5000 Gil and 100-300 AP!!!!!
Disc 2: Crashed Gelnika makes a Great Level up area, a single battle can
earn up to 8000 Exp and 500 AP and a LOT of Gil (Beware, These enemies
are TOUGH)
Disc 3: In Sephiroth's Cave (I.E. the North cave) when the path splits,
go left, then up. You'll be in a Marshy area, there you can fight Magic
Pots (8000 Exp, 1000 AP and over 20000 Gil a piece) and Movers (0 Exp,
but 800 AP and about 50000 Gil and they ALWAYS show up in groups of
three!!!) Note: You MUST use an Elixir Or Angel Whisper (!) on a Magic
Pot or you won't be able to harm it :(
SECRET MATERIA CAVES
Around the world, there are 4 secret caves that hold only a piece of
Materia but, that Materia is usually very useful (Like KOTR and
Mime) However, they all require colored chocobos to get to them.
Here's where they are and how to get to them:
Cave 1: on a peninsula near Wutai, You need a Green, Black, or Gold
Chocobo to get there, once inside, you'll find the Mime Materia
Cave 2: North of Corel village in a large desert, You need a Black or a
Gold Chocobo to get there, You'll find HP<->MP inside
Cave 3: On a distant island in the Mideel area, You need a Black or Gold
Chocobo in order to reach this cave, Inside it is The Quadra Magic
Materia
Cave 4: Probably the most popular or the four, this is on a small round
island in the very North-East corner or the world map and you MUST have
a Gold Chocobo to get there. This cave Contains the Knights of the Round
(KOTR) Materia!!!!
THE KEY TO SECTOR 5
Probably the most commonly asked question among FF7 players
I'm going to reveal the location of this easily missed Key item
Step 1: After Cloud rejoins the team in disc 2, go back to Midgar and a
man will be standing outside the town, talk to him to learn about a
missing key.
Step 2: Travel to Bone Village and choose to Excavate "Good Treasure"
then place diggers if you like (but, it's not necessary) and have them
dig near a small piece of metal sticking out of the Wrecked plane near
the entrance. (it's across from the blocked door) In the morning, check
the Treasure chest, and you should get the Key to sector 5!!! Once
inside Midgar, there's really not to much to do, but if you go into the
church where you first met Aeris, you'll catch a quick glimpse of her
ghost. Also, return to the Wall Market and you can get Tifa's Best
Weapon (See above) then go back and talk to the man who sold you the
batteries and he'll offer to sell you the Sneak Glove for 129,000 Gil!!!
But, besides those few things, Midgar's pretty much empty.
HARD TO FIND ITEMS AND MATERIA
Not exactly for the best items, this list is for easily overlooked items
Yoshiyuki
When you first visit Rocket Town, talk to an old man standing just
outside a house below the rocket, keep talking to him and eventually,
he'll give you the Yoshiyuki, a weapon for Cloud
Umbrella
Not a very good weapon, but It's hard to find, so...
Go to Gold Saucer and play the Shooting Coaster game and Score over 5000
points. A task that's easier said than done, even for the best players
Note: you can only get the Umbrella in disc 1
Flayer
To get this weapon for Cid, just do the same thing you did to get the
Umbrella Except, do it in disc 2 or 3
Note: The Flayer is stronger than the Venus Gospel, Cid's Ultimate
Weapon!!!
Mega All Materia
A very useful materia, it can only be found in the North Cave (disc 3)
when the main path splits, go left then down to find this. It is hanging
over a ledge with a waterfall behind it and you have to grab it while
jumping (just keep pushing O while jumping)
W-Magic Materia
Also found in the North cave, Except go Left and Up to find it, keep
going until you reach a room with a white pit and a forest, there's a
little yellowish stone near the edge of the forest, take it, it's W-
Magic. Also before leaving, go to the pit and look for a spot that is
slightly darker and push O, you'll get Counter materia.
Final Attack Materia
Another very commonly asked question
This Materia can only be obtained in Disc 2 or 3 at the Gold Saucer
Battle Square. After buying Omnislash and W-Summon, you'll be offered a
chance at a special battle, that contains tougher monsters than the
normal battle (including Proud Clod...Yikes!!!) if you win the Special
battle, you'll get Final Attack materia as your prize!!!
Contain Materia
You can get this Materia in Mideel, just talk to the little white
chocobo and give it a Mimmet green (Note that the game says you're
giving it a "Samolen" green, that's just another of many mistakes in
FF7) and when it the lead character asks where he/she should tickle the
chocobo, choose "Behind his ear" and you will get Contain Materia!!!
(Could this be ANY easier?!?!?!?!)
Curse Ring
You can also get this item in Mideel (but only before it gets destroyed)
check the back door of the weapon shop to discover it's locked, then go
to the house at the end of the bridge near the entrance to town and walk
around to the right side of it and if you're in the right spot, you
should hear a faint click, Push O when you hear the click to get an old
Key, return to the weapon shop and try to open the door with the key,
when the shopkeeper asks what's going on, just tell him the truth and he
will give you the Curse Ring.
FullCure Materia
This can be found in Cosmo Canyon (disc 2 or 3), if you were at the item
shop earlier in the game, you may have noticed a door behind the
counter, but couldn't get there because a rope was blocking you, well in
disc 2 and 3, that rope will be gone and you can get to the back room,
check the green stone on the table to get FullCure, and check the bag on
the floor to get a Magic Source and an Elixir.
Guide Book and Underwater Materia
These Rare and Unusual items are linked together, so I'll cover them
both at the same time.
The Guide Book: This can be found in the passage leading to the Undersea
Mako reactor at Junon (the underwater passage) Keep fighting until you
meet an enemy called a Ghost Ship, You can Morph it into a Guide Book
(By killing it with Morph...Duh)
Underwater Materia: Once you have the Guide Book, Return to Kalm town
and give it to the "Traveler" in exchange, he'll give you the Underwater
Materia which Eliminates the twenty minute timer when fighting Emerald
Weapon.
W-Item
I'm really not sure exactly why, but this materia gets missed very often
also. During the Raid in Midgar near the end of Disc 2, Proceed as
normal until you get to the brown train tunnel, then, instead of going
up to the Sister ray, Head down, you'll keep passing repeating screens,
and occasionally, you'll find a treasure chest. (They all contain
Various "Source" Items) Keep going down and you will meet Red XIII,
Ignore his warning and continue going down, Eventually, You'll come to a
dead end path with a save point and a Yellow Materia, This materia is,
of course, W-Item. Note that you cant go back any further...I'll bet
this path would lead to the train tunnel blocked by laser beams at the
beginning of the game......
(If you think going all the way down here to get W-Item is a waste of
time, see the Item Duplication trick for a motivating reason to get
it!!)
Kalm Secrets
Maybe it isn't obvious to everyone, but there are many secrets in Kalm
Town:
Ether - Look in the Door Below the Stairs in the "Traveler's" house
Ether - Look in a Closet on the right-hand wall in the house closest to
the inn
Ether - Go upstars in the house closest to the stairs and open the
cabinet that is next to the Locked Trunk (Anyone know how to open that
thing????)
Guard Source - In the Middle Building, Go up the Straight Starcase and
open the dresser next to the girl there
Peacemaker - In the same Building where you got the Guard Source, Climb
the spiral staircase and open the Treasure chest there to get it
Megalixir - Go upstairs in the Inn and then go around the stairs and
search the Shelf about 5 times
Other Secrets
The Window - In the room where you got the Peacemaker, you can look out
a window, just face the bright light in the wall :)
The Dog - In the room downstairs from where you found the ether and the
locked chest, you can open a closet and release a dog, talk to the pooch
and he'll run away :)
RARE ITEM STEAL CHART
it's probably common knowledge by now, but stealing can get you some
rare and valuable items if you steal from the right monsters. Here is a
short list telling what some of the rare items you can steal are:
Reno (Disc 2) - Touph Ring (Yes, it's the same thing that Seph had equipped)
Rude (Disc 2) - Ziedrich
Elena - Minerva Band
Diamond Weapon - Rising Sun
Schizo (that twin-head dragon in the Ice cave) - Protect Ring
Eagle Gun (on the Train in the Corel Huge materia quest) - Warrior Bangle
There are MANY more, just keep trying to steal from everything, who
knows what you can find...
MORPH CHART
in addition to steal, some enemies can also be Morphed into good items:
Cactuer (Little Green cactus) - Tetra Elemental
Ho-Cho (Big Green and Pink plant at the Battle Arena) - Ribbon
Master Tonberry (Little Critter with a star over his head) - Ribbon
Iron Man (Blue soldier with a BIG sword) - Escort Guard
TURTLE'S PARADISE FLYERS
There are 6 Turtle's Paradise Flyers located around the world, if you
read them all, got to the Turtle's Paradise bar at Wutai to get a Prize.
Here's Where they Are:
Flyer 1: This one can be found in the Sector 5 town near Aeris' House in
Midgar, Go into all the houses until you find one that has a staircase
leading upstairs to a room with a sleeping kid inside, look on the wall
to find the flyer
Flyer 2: This is on the First floor of the Shinra Building, go behind
the stairs and read the papers on the bulletin board.
(Note: you can only get to this during the Midgar raids near the
beginning of disc 1 and the end of disc 2)
Flyer 3: This one is in the Ghost Hotel at the Gold Saucer, read the
paper on the wall Next to the item shop entrance to find it
Flyer 4: This one is in Cosmo Canyon, Read the Flyer upstairs in the
"Shildra Inn"
Flyer 5: This Flyer can be found on a Post by the "Tiger Lily arms shop"
in Cosmo Canyon
Flyer 6: After Catching Yuffie and getting your materia back, go
downstairs in her house and read the long, thin paper on the wall
After Finding all the flyers, head to the Turtle's Paradise and Claim
your prize: one of each of the "Source" items and a Megalixir
THE SECRET CHARACTERS
Another very commonly asked question, here's how to get Vincent and
uffie
Getting Yuffie:
Step 1: Fight in any forest and Yuffie Will eventually appear (in a
random battle) She'll be called "Mystery Ninja" defeat Her and answer
her questions as Follows:
First of all DON'T use the save point, or Yuffie will leave
Yuffie's Question:
Let's Fight once again (this isn't her exact question, just bear with me
here)
Response: Not interested
Yuffie's Question:
Are you Scared of me?
Response: ......Petrified!
Yuffie's Question:
I'm gonna leave!!!
Response: Wait a minute
Yuffie's Question:
Do you want me to go with you?
Response: That's Right
Yuffie's Question
OK, I'll go with you
Response: Let's Hurry on....
after this Yuffie will join your team, but she has a plan...HAHAHA!!!!!
Note: if you give the opposite answer, Yuffie will run away and steal
some Gil
Getting Vincent:
Finding Vincent is easier than finding Yuffie, Here's how to do it:
Step 1: First open the safe in Shinra Mansion (See above for code) and
defeat Lost Number
Step 2: After Defeating Lost Number (Easy Kill) check the safe to get
the Key item "Basement Key" (and don't miss the easily accessed Odin
Materia nearby either)
Step 3: open the secret door Cloud used in the flashback and enter the
basement cave, once inside, open the Wooden door using the key
Step 4: "Talk" to the coffin in the middle of the room, Vincent will
awake and ask to talk for a while:
Vincent's Question:
What do you want? (again, this isn't exactly what he says)
Response: Talk about Sephiroth
Vincent will then go back to sleep
Step 5: Press O again and Vincent will reappear
Vincent's Question:
What is it this time?
Response: Who are you?
you will get to name Vincent and then he will go back to sleep.
Just continue on to the meeting with Sephiroth at the end of the
basement. When you start to leave, Vincent will appear and offer to join
the party.
THE ITEM DUPLICATION TRICK
A useful trick that you can do after getting W-Item Materia
Equip the W-Item Materia (Duh) and go into battle, Choose the item you
want to duplicate and use it, for the second item, it doesn't matter
(you're not really going to use it anyway :) after selecting the second
item, Press O to select it, but instead of using it, Press X to cancel
it, The number of the First item you used should increase, after that,
press O to use the item, X to cancel, O to use, X to cancel, and repeat
the pattern. If it works, you can get as many as 99 of the selected
item!!!!!!!!
(Note: You can only do this trick with items that are usable in battle)
THE ??????????? ITEMS AT WONDER SQUARE
ok, so maybe this ISN'T a very commonly asked question, but for those
who don't feel like building up that much GP, here's what the ?????????
items at the shop in Wonder Square at the Gold Saucer are:
The ?????????? Item that Costs 500 GP is a Carob Nut
The ?????????? Item that Costs 1000 GP is the Gil Plus Materia (Limited to 1)
The ?????????? Item that Costs 2000 GP is the EXP Plus Materia (also Limit 1)
CHOCOBO BREEDING GUIDE
"How do I get a Gold Chocobo???"
I've heard this question too many times to ignore it, so here, in full
is how to get EVERY chocobo (Except a white chocobo; that's just a False
Rumor) You can't start the Breeding process until Cloud rejoins the team
in Disc 2
(This is a long procedure, so I'll do it in steps)
Step 1: Rent Stables from Choco Bill for 10,000 Gil each
Step 2: Next, Catch a "Good" and a "Great" Chocobo
To catch a "Good" Chocobo, just fight around near the Corel Desert (on
the clawprints with a Chocobo Lure Materia equipped) and catch one, any
one will do. To catch a "Great" chocobo, fight around Mideel and catch
ONLY a chocobo that is with 2 White Wolf-Like creatures. If you caught a
Male Good chocobo and a Female Great Chocobo (or Vice-Versa) you're
ready for Step 3
Step 3: Get 3 Carob nuts, you can buy them at the Gold Saucer for 500 GP
each (Yeah, Right!!) or steal them from a red dinosaur-like enemy
outside of Bone Village; you need 3 of them
Step 4: When you have the nuts, Return and Mate your "Good" and "Great"
chocobos with a Carob Nut, if all goes well, you should have a blue or
green chocobo!!
(Note: you may get either color, or just another yellow one, if this
happens, just reset and try again till you get the one you want)
Step 5: Waste some time here, as it takes about a half hour before Choco
Billy lets you Mate chocobos again, so bring your new choco to the Gold
Saucer and race him up to the "A" class (or "S" class, if you want)
After Choco Billy lets you mate chocobos again, mate one of the parents
with the new Colored chocobo and hopefully you'll get the other color
(Blue or Green)that you didn't Get before, once again, mate them using a
Carob Nut
Then go race the other chocobo up to "A" class
After this, Release the "Good and Great" Chocobos; you won't need them
any more
Step 6: Mate The Blue and Green Chocobos using a Carob Nut (Hope they
are of the opposite Sex) and you'll most likely get a Black Chocobo,
Race blacky up to "A" class too (Notice a trend here yet?)
Step 7: Go to the area outside of Icicle Inn and catch a "Wonderful"
Chocobo (In the clawprints, of course) You can find Wonderful Chocobos
by catching only ones that are with one or two jumping white rabbits.
If the "Wonderful Chocobo" is of the opposite Sex or the black one, race
it up to "A" class then Use a Zeio Nut (You can steal these from Goblins
on a small island north of Mideel) to mate it with the Black one an
You'll hopefully get a Gold Chocobo!!!! It takes a lot of work, but it's
WELL WORTH IT!!!
Note: when racing a Chocobo, be sure to feed each one at LEAST 10 Sylkis
greens, you can buy these from the Chocobo Sage, who lives in a secluded
cabin in the Icicle Area
CHOCO BILLY'S CHOCOBO REPORT
when you bring a chocobo back to the stables, Choco Billy says one of 7
things, Here's what they all mean:
This...Is a Wonderful Chocobo!!!!! (Wonderful)
This is a Great Chocobo (Great)
Mmm, this seems like a Good Chocobo (Good)
Mmm, this ones not bad (Average)
This is a pretty average Chocobo (Average)
This one doesn't seem to be very good... (Bad)
I really can't recommend this one... (The Worst)
OTHER INFO
this info really doesn't go anywhere, It's just trivial anyway
Useless items
There are many items (mostly won in the Gold Saucer) that have no use
whatsoever, they're just for looks. They are:
1/35 Soldier (Ignore the rumor, These are useless)
Super Sweeper
Masamune Blade
Tissue
Autograph
Combat Diary
Gambler
Guide Book \
Desert Rose )-----these 3 items have no use directly, but can be
Earth Harp / traded for various things that CAN be used
Battery (This item has a use, but if you kept one, it's useless later)
Masamune - This is Sephiroth's weapon that can only be obtained using a
Gameshark, I originally thought this item to be useless, but a fellow
FF7 fan (ViNcE19239) informed me that this item has a use:
Using Gameshark, You can get Seph on your team, and he can be equipped
with this.
(Not that it makes much difference anyway since he already has one)
Rumors
There are many of these, but are any of them true????
Aeris' Revival: I personally don't believe it can be done, however,
there are several people who claim they HAVE Revived her (Yeah, Right)
If you stick her back in your team using Gameshark, nothing different
will happen, this lead me to believe that she, in fact, CANNOT be
revived!!!
(Please don't E-Mail me just to tell me she can be revived; I don't want to hear it!!!)
The White Chocobo: This rumor I don't believe either, but the theory
sounds convincing enough, mate 2 Gold S-Rank chocobos and then mate
their offspring with a green chocobo, also, this chocobo is said to go
underwater...Hmm......
Onyx Weapon: This one also sounds convincing, use the white chocobo to
go under the Midgar Zolom's Marsh and there he is...I doubt it though......
Sephiroth as a team Member: C'mon people!!! He's the Final Boss, do you
Really think this guy is going to say "Hey Cloud, I'm sorry I called
Meteor and destroyed Nibelheim 5 years ago, let's be friends now!" I
don't think so!!! True, you can get him on your team in the flashback,
but even then, the computer controls him, even if you put him in your
team using Gameshark!!!! He AIN'T gonna join you!!! END OF STORY!!! (Do
I sound like Barret here???)
The General: I don't know WHO started this, but this General guy,
supposedly the crazy old man living in the pipe in Sector 5 has Nothing
to do Whatsoever with the outcome of the game!!!
Super Nova Materia: Sounds nice, but you can't really get it (c'mon,
Cloud and his friends are trying to save the universe, not destroy
it!!!!)
Aeris' Ghost: This is actually true, after returning to Midgar in disc 2 or 3, you can see the ghost of Aeris for a second in the church where you first met her. This however, doesn't lead to her revival, it was in, reality, just another mistake. (Inidgar
fact, it can be seen when Aeris is
alive and on your team!!)
Cloud's LV 5 limit: The theory sounds convincing here too, just get
Ultima Weapon, Omnislash and all 3 master materias and in the very final
(not possible to lose) battle with Human Sephiroth, Cloud was supposed
to be able to use a secret LV 5 Limit......is it true????
The Unlimited Money Card + Mancharia Town: Unlimited Money...a legendary
town where you're supposed to find it...well, these two ideas are nice,
but they aren't really True......
Test 0: Actually, This is true, Test 0 was an enemy in the Japanese Version of FF7, It was supposed to give you lots of Experience and Gil. (or so I hear) It was either a battle testing opponent or was just put in as a joke, it was removed from the A true
merican Version, however. (For some unknown reason)
