where is this 'final dungeon'...where you get the 'counter' materia

[.:kerrod:.]

i read on this site you can get the 'counter' materia from the 'final dungeon', but after searching all of their walkthroughs, i can't find this place in it at all :confused:

EDIT: I'm guessing it's somewhere in the northern crater

There it is.

[.:kerrod:.]

haha, thanks, but where actually is that? it looks to me like a shallow 'temple of the ancients' remains

[TheSpoonyBard]

It's in the Northern Cave. The third screen on the left-upper path, I believe.

[.:kerrod:.]

yay, thank you

[swatzlewatt]

or thank me

[.:kerrod:.]

[swatzlewatt]

well, ive got nothiung else to do. (takes pill, tires rope around neck, jumps off chair)

You know you can get a counter from the Mt Nibel Boss and 2 from Chocobo Square, so if you go to Mideel and train, then you can have 3 mastered counters before you set foot in Northern Crater.

That's CounterAttack, MasterX. There's only one Counter materia, and that's in the Northern Cave.

Explain what Counter is. I KNOW you get it from Chocobo Racing. That I'm sure of, but please tell me the difference.

[.:kerrod:.]

with counter attack your character just attacks when attacked, whereas you pair 'counter' with a command materia, and you character counters with the paired materia instead of just attacking

[TheSpoonyBard]

CounterAttack (purple): respond with a single physical attack when damage is incurred

Counter (blue): respond with the paired Command (yellow) materia when damage is incurred

Magic Counter (blue): respond with the paired Magic (green) or Summon (red) materia when damage is incurred

The Chocobo Square displays the prize as Counter, but it's really CounterAttack.
