And some quick thoughts in response...
The third line is throwing me off.
I feel the answer has something to do with materia or weapons.
Actually, yeah, maybe Yuffie's weapons - I feel the fourth line has to do with Double AP or something like that. >_< That third line is really a thorn, though.
I need to play this game more often - it's been over two years now.
I have no idea. But my gut is telling me this is one of those element riddles, a lot like the "what did the blood do" riddle.
The trouble you might have with this riddle is the detail, and the need to think very differently to normal. There isn't really a 'catch' as such, except perhaps that part of the answer is a bit unusual. My advice would be not to go line by line, and pay very close attention to the wording.
Hmm, i'm not too sure on this one...
I'm kinda thinking Knights of The Round or something like that? I dunno...
Well it obviously refers to a group of people due to the question WHO came fifth. Therefore I dont think it could be materia although that was my first thought after reading it. I also think that both lines refer to the same group at different points in time since the quest is about the fifth.
My guess is the Jenova clones since at first they were spread out all over, but later they grouped together in one place or another.
what about the turks... and the last time you fight them Elena is with them (the 5th)? i dunno...
Good thinking, but my wording isn't quite that straightforward. The who in question is not related in such a way to the 'they'. The 'they' is in fact quite an odd answer.
I don't want to say much on this, and this isn't necessarily the best approach, but I think the fourth line may be one of the easier to start guessing about.
You have to read carefully to work out the structure to this one.
the only thing that I can think of that goes with the fourth line is the Zeidrich armor that you steal from Rude in the Shinra plane and in Midgar... because it halfs all elemental attacks... however you don't 'find' it so to speak anywhere you have to steal it and that doesnt go with the rest of the riddle at all... so I'm completely stumped... but I'll keep tryin... my only other guess would also be the dudes in black robes like Llanowar suggested only for this reason...
1st line: They are spread out everywhere when you first encounter them
2nd line: If I'm not mistaken at one point in the game (north crater maybe?) they are all walking in a solid line
3rd line: After that point in the game (north crater when you fight Jenova-DEATH) you don't see them anymore, at least I don't think so...
4th line: dunno...
but since the guys in black robes is appariently wrong then the Zeidrich with the fourth line is all I have... good riddle tho
Heh, thanks, we'll see what you think of it when the answer is revealed :D .
Oh dear, I checked and there is a mistake in this riddle, line one should actually only read two instead of many directions. I can't really explain this without giving away too much, so I'll just apologise. I don't THINK anyone has really got far enough for it to be an issue. It does kinda still fit if you understand the second line in comparison so I'll leave it. The solution I expect will occur to you BEFORE you realise that I made a semi-mistake, so don't worry too much.
I guess its hint time, here is a riddle to help solve one of the lines:
First there were 123, then there were 12
:confused: Maybe it's those guys you fight in Don Corneo's mansion...
You fight four, then four more....
The first four jump at you from different directions, the second four
jump at you from one way or the other.
xP
Sorry, I'm wrong. I just don't know what it is... It's really bugging me, too... :(
Bear in mind that part of this riddle is VERY hard, but the second riddle I gave should get you quite a long way.
For some reason, I think the answer might be one of the towns... Maybe Midgar? I'm still not too sure... Now that I think about it, Midgar doesn't really fit in...
Master Materia?
(PS: Sorry for not posting a new riddle when I got the last one, I was at the beach)
No,and no, sorry. This thread is really losing steam... I'll post the answer or somemuch bigger hints if people don't get anywhere soon.
I'm sorry. I don't know... I'm all guessed out.
