No! You've Had Enough Coral!

The damn chest won't let me through. People have suggested about 50 pieces to feed the coral, but I've tried that plenty of times. Then I tried to gather 300 pieces and the chest was like "Mmm... no no. That's not enough. I need to be engorged with coral. GIVE ME CORAL!"

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? :mad2::mad2::mad2:

Even though it might be an obvious question, do you have Strago in the party? The chest won't ever let you pass if he isn't in the party. Also, you need 22 pieces of coral, according to Djibriel:

The talking chest will let you pass on two conditions. One: you need to have Strago. If you don't have Strago in your party, you can feed him all you want,but won't accomplish anything, either for you or for the chest. He eats, like so many young people of our time, because he's unhappy. It's a destructive and endless cycle of finding consolation in the very weakness he despises. I yap. Two: You need to feed him 22 pieces of Coral IN ONE GO. If you feed him 18, he'll send you off for more, and you still need to feed him 22 pieces of Coral again.

lmao'd at the title of this thread. Yeah, I hate that thing. Ummm, maybe don't try to save them all up at once? I just feed the thing whenever I teleport back to it and, while it does seem to take an absurd amount of the stuff, I don't think I've ever had to serve it anywhere close to 300 pieces total.

edit: I was beaten in by a far more useful reply, I see. But my "I hate that thing too" comment still stands, at least. Wow, so all this time I've been wondering and feeding that thing until I happened to meet it with 22 pieces? Damn, it's a wonder I ever got through that. Almost a dozen times, no less.

But I love you. :(

I don't remember this part. Is it form the GBAids version?

It's been around since the beginning, senor bipper.

When I was a young angsty teen I misdirected all my hate towards that stupid chest. I guess it kept me out of trouble but I still have a burning hatred for that box of greed.

The entire point is to teach Strago Grand Train, or whatever it's called. It's kind of daft to not have him in the party when going off to fight the Hidon. =P

This chest was the real reason behind the destruction of that mining town in Final Fantasy VII...The chest has some difficulties with spelling
