What were your biggest achievements in 7?

Some of us spent way too much time (kind of) playing Final Fantasy 7... I for one had to have put in 100's of hours (unfortunately the clock can only go so high in the game)... Whether it was to the point to where your save file couldnt show gil because you had to much and it glitched, getting mastering certain materia multiple times (Knights of the round.. ugh).. lvling everyone to 99, getting every little materia in the game, you name it, I did it, over and over (wish i had that kind of freetime nowadays)

So what were some of your biggest or favorite accomplishments?

My biggest achievements?

Probably breeding a golden chocobo and leveling Death Penalty to do 2500 damage with Slash-All.

Breeding a Gold Chocobo, as well. It is such a weary task, and not really what I'd classify as "fun". :(

I did breed a gold chocobo. It was long, but a simple enough task to understand.

However, a task I could never somehow complete (because it was so darn difficult) was getting Aerith's umbrella from that bloody roller coaster. GARHHH!!!!

I agree on the umbrella part. It was tedious as hell to find all the points!

I know people say that it's easy once you have a strategy down, but for someone like me who was able to do it at the age of twelve, it was definitely beating Ruby and Emerald Weapons (and being able to prepare myself adequately for the battles, like getting a gold chocobo, KOTR, the ultimate weapons, linking up my materia in a sophisticated enough way, etc.). It's probably my proudest achievement throughout the entire series.

I can't say I'm very proud of getting Lionheart on disc one of FFVIII. That one was out of sheer summer boredom.

Nothing too exciting: defeating the Weapons, breeding all the chocobos, getting one round of master materia. The first time beating Ruby and Emerald felt like the most significant moments for me when I was young, even though they aren't that difficult for more experienced players.

:jess: Hahahaha probably the fact to never use a Chocobo to get past the Midgar Zolom...

I remember when I first defeated Ruby: I spammed Hades and KOTR with W-Summon and Mime.

What made me proud was that I did not look that strategy on a guide. I was surprised it worked.

What is most difficult to me in the game is to steal the Vagyrisk Claw and win the Umbrella at Gold Saucer... Even Chocobo Breeding is easier to me than these two...

Beating Sephiroth, Ultimate Weapon, Ruby Weapon and Emerald Weapon, completing the Battle Arena, and doing most of the optional stuff (I don't have Alexander or any roller coaster high scores) without ever breeding a single Chocobo.

The Rollercoaster is actually a lot harder than even the Weapons to me, believe it or not... XDDD I may be quite an RPG expert but surely I'm not a shooters expert... XDDD

I'm decent myself, but I just really, really didn't want to farm the GP required to play it.

Didn't bother getting KotR against the weapons even the first time I fought them. I can't remember if I used Bahamut Zero or the Gil-tossing against Ruby. Probably the gil-tossing, since Bahamut Zero's animation is so darn long and gets very boring after a while. It did take much longer, but I also felt a great satisfaction from being a hipster like that. :monster:

I remember doing some challenges vs Ruby and Emerald later on too, but my number one biggest achievement would probably be completing my whole "lowest possible level, initial equipment, no materia" challenge. The final boss battle during that challenge was pretty darn intense.

I do almost the same but my reasons are different, I have to keep the damage low to emphasize special attacks damage compared to normal attacks damage... I just need low (but not lowest possible) level and initial weapons to do so, but this is something I do in any FF... Adding the fact of classes! XD
