Can anyone help me in temple of ancients

you can only get the materia back when they are back in your party

and thats after you get the huge the materia if i am correct.

but yeah if you have materia on them and they leave...you have to wait to get them back in your party before you have the materia back :(

Which totaly sucks BTW.

I always make cloud the best and *poof* my party sucks.

yea, that usually happens to me also, but now that i knwo the ropes, hehe, i knowingly unequip him now.

Here is my tips:

Use Bahamut
NEVER use magic (it sucks on him)
Use Odin (if you have it)
Use throw(if you have it, and don't throw any weapons that you need!!!)
Use climhazzard (GET IT IF U DON'T HAVE IT!!!)
Have Cure 2
And attack.

Also, having Great Gospel makes you almost infinite. If truly helps.
