I have a feeling this is an enemy that, if overkilled in a big way, will retaliate with a nasty status ailment, but also packs an instant kill attack.
Probably wrong though; I can think of no such enemy in the game.
Oh! Oh! Is it the Gargoyles in the North Cave?
Okay I was still online, so I'll answer right away.
YES!
To those who don't know: Gargoyles can be killed by using a Soft on them, while they're still petrified. If no character is in Slow-numb or Petrify status when the Gargoyle dies, he will use L4 Death. Even Final Attack can't save you, since there's no enemy -> no final attack.:D
ReloadPsi, your turn.
Um...
Whoops. Somebody else go for it, I've got FF6 on the brain lately because I've been playing it so much so I can't think of a good FF7 riddle.
Therefore I pass this on to whomever is first to post a riddle.
I can exceed the most powerful of allies,
I can be used to defeat the most powerful foes,
Yet what you deem "powerful" is not within my nature.
Just a wild guess: The Overflow Bug?
Nope
Could it be Cait Sith's Reels?
Good guess but no.
Is it Aeris?
I thought someone would say Aeris lol. No not Aeris.
I know, I know, stupid guess. I asked my boyfriend for help and that's what he said. Now is it a who or what?
hehe it is an thing rather than a person.
Summons?
Nope
I can exceed the most powerful of allies,
I can be used to defeat the most powerful foes,
Yet what you deem "powerful" is not within my nature.
is it a weapon you can use
edit: thats kinda vague so ill guess.
I cant think of the name of it right now but the yellow matira that gives you the option that the attack is either critical or misses.
what's it called?
You mean deathblow?
If it isn't "game over" by cait... because that would come under reels?
So my guess is "mime" command

Nope, none right so far. Keep in mind the last line guys.
is it cait sith's "death joker"?
it has the same effect as game over, simply on the party, so it's stronger than anything, but I wouldn't say it is powerful, as it kills the user...
It doesn't matter who it kills its still a powerful attack. And it doesn't help destroy enemies really. So no.
Keeping with the theme is it Cait Sith's dice?
Nothing to do with cait sith
Not sure if I am allowed to guess again :P
But I am thinking curative magic too....
what about Great Gospel limit break? That can be used to beat the best enemies...and it isn't what we would call powerful.
Wrong.
You guys suck at this :p
mabey you suck at giving riddles :mad:
Is it healing items? They can be powerful against Zombies
haha no.

Hint:(SPOILER)The first line isn't saying that it is more powerful than the "most powerful of allies". Simply that it "exceeds" it. In what other ways can something exceed the "most powerful of allies" in FF7?
Teioh?
Nope. What's your reasoning?Quote:

Just to clarify: When I say powerful, I mean in battle. :)
Hmm, how can someone be more powerful than the most powerful enemies (the weapons?), but we don't call it powerful. :(
And also, they must exceed our party (or summons/materia?) in any way.
The only thing I can think about is instant kill attacks. But we call them powerful, actually. Status is sometimes powerful, but yeah, we call 'em that.
Do we take everything too literally?
random guess
King arthur in the KOTR materia
I can exceed the most powerful of allies,-He grows bigger than any enemy to slash
I can be used to defeat the most powerful foes,-duh
Yet what you deem "powerful" is not within my nature.-idk yet lol
morph?
I'd say you're not being literal enough lmao.Quote:

Throw has power. Item/money determines it. So, no. :cool:Quote:

Death Sentence?
By answering that I'm not sure if I would make it harder or easier. Anyway this isn't 20 questions *shakes finger* :pQuote:

Since we've already established that it has no power (3rd line), if you figure out the 1st line then you've essentially got it.
Is it limit breaks............I'm trying to think of something the "exceeds", (go beyond/ be better/ surpass/ect.) but its not working... ugh!
Well ignore "exceed" for now and figure out what your most powerful ally is. Then ways in which things are able to exceed it.Quote:

I'd say materia is my most powerful ally, so is it Master Materia
nope
D*mm*t I thought I was being so clever. FAIL!
You realise that master materia has attacks........right? lol
Yes I realized that, but is was worth a guess
W-Summon?
is it airtam storm? its realy strong if you have materia but without them its usless and you never said the foes were the bad guys it could be us cause we're the foes of the baddiesQuote:

W-summon and mime are commands. As stated earlier it is not a command. I would also consider any enemy attack a command, also airtam storm doesn't comply with line 3.
lol I like your thinking Guardian XIII but let's keep our thinking inside the box shall we.
:)
Haha, Quadra Magic?
No but you're starting to get the idea :p
Out of curiosity what's your reasoning?
Damn I was so sure...
Just to clarify, I was thinking inside the box... with my brain! Hahaha, but seriously.
So it's not a command? It can deal damage, correct? I can exceed the most powerful of allies, I can be used to defeat the most powerful foes. The words I and used lead me to believe it's some sort of item. Is any of this right?
Is it double cut materia?
It cannot deal damage itself. The rest is fine but "use" is a very loose term since using an item in battle counts as using a command.Quote:

Counter Attack?
Phoenix down?
Well, I'm trying to read it as literally as possible. I'm thinking "the most powerful of allies" might refer to summons, most of which Quadra Magic will improve and thus in a way "exceed". You've made it quite clear that it doesn't deal damage by itself so it's could be many of the support materia. Some of the answers I planned to follow up with were guessed above, so I'll wait for you to confirm or deny those.Quote:
Originally Posted by Sword
Na its none of the above. Since people haven't figured this out yet, I've made another hint available:
(SPOILER)How it exceeds is very specific so you can't use general terms for what the "most powerful of allies" is.
Is it berserk? That's the only thing I can think of that doesn't use a command during battle.
wellp i think im just gona sit this one out :p
Hero Drink?
Is it All materia? (It exceeds magic by casting it on everyone, it can be used to defeat tough enemies, it doesn't do anything on its own).
*sigh* no
HP Plus materia?
Nope. What's your reasoning?
In the 2nd line when I say it can be used to defeat the most powerful enemies, I'm saying its very helpful.
I'm not too sure why a reasoning is needed if it's wrong but I'll humor you. Something that can exceed an ally and help defeat a foe? HP Plus materia sounded about right. Put's your characters past where their HP level should be and extra HP is quite helpful when going up against a boss, plus there's no command for it.
Also, I think we all get your hints, it's just that you keep repeating yourself that's making this harder and it keeps our guesses limited to items and commands, even though you've stated it's neither.
I wanted to know your reasoning to see exactly where you went wrong during your thought process. The actual thing I'm talking about exceeds the powerful ally, rather than helping a character to exceed.
I don't mean to repeat myself, I'm just trying to help out without giving too much away.
Is it a type of armor or weapon?
Nope
another hint
Very Well. (SPOILER)The "most powerful of allies" is referring to the Knights of the Round summon. Can't believe no one's even guessed that yet xD.
Is it silence magic?
lol no. How did you come to that conclusion?
Probably not but... Master Summon?
The Death spell?
MP Turbo or whatever it's called?
No, no and no.
I can exceed the most powerful of allies,
I can be used to defeat the most powerful foes,
Yet what you deem "powerful" is not within my nature.
Ok I'll run over what we've established so far:
- It is NOT a command (ie selectable in battle);
- Its uses are VERY helpful for the most powerful bosses;
- It is NOT a weapon/armour;
- It exceeds the Knights of Round materia somehow;
- It does NOT have any strength of its own.
I think I might cry T_T
Master Summon? xD I'm stumped.
Well if Rantz is stumped then there's no hope for the rest of us! So something "better" than KOTR but not powerful.... The only thing I can think is Quadra Magic but that was already guessed... *scratches head*
*facepalm*
Added Effect
It exceeds KotR, can be used in battle, and can not be used through command? Is it some type of materia? Support maybe?
Counter and Mime trick.
Very effective.
Omnislash is the only thing I can think of, but u said no Limit...
In response to Guardian XIII, yes it is some type of materia, but please don't just guess it through the process of elimination.
Oh and Tifa_Lockhart88 I wouldn't necessarily say it's better than KotR. That's probably a matter of opinion.
Is it Pre-Emptive?
No
*sigh* Is it Added Cut?
The White Materia?
Did you say no to my answer? ^^^^^Quote:
Counter and Mime trick.
Very effective.
Yes I said no to it. Although I didn't know what it was until I looked it up today and its very close. But not the miming or countering part.
So what you mean is the linking. KotR linked to something?
No. The 1st line is something you can work out by looking at the materias' stats.
I can exceed the most powerful of allies,
I can be used to defeat the most powerful foes,
Yet what you deem "powerful" is not within my nature.
Hp Absorb trick?
I can't think of anything that has a break damage limit ability in this game :(
I don't think he's talking about the damage limit. I think it refers to the AP that goes into the materia. Can't be sure though. Everything's wrong in here. :shifty:
So I'm pretty sure it's a support materia (blue materia). Is it Magic Counter?
I would take a wild guess and say Apocalypse but you said it wasent a weapon didnt you
Underwater materia?
It can have more ap than KotR
It helps you fight Emerald Weapon
It does no damage at all
Not a command; VERY helpful against the most powerful boss, Emerald Weapon; Not weapon or armor; Exceeds KotR in AP; absolutely 0 strength on its own, can't even be used to power up Barret's Missing Score.
And if this is it, thank you guardian for pointing out AP
Yes! F***ing finally. *massive long sigh* I'm not doing another riddle for a long time. :laughing:Quote:

My Riddle:
Why would I buy this item that I see?
If you were smart, then you would agree!
It's so much worse, I guarantee!
Wanna know why? Just ask the three...
I think it might be too easy...
My answer doesn't follow your riddle very well but so be it :P
The 3 Batteries you get.
Nope
I was gonna say maybe sense
but how bout the broke vending machine that shoots at you?
Neither:p
Potions?
Not Potions
tranqulizers? (spelled wrong but you get the idea)
Nope...
In a couple more guesses I will give a hint
Tents?
curse ring... although it isn't bought...?
the chocobo stables?
It has to be the "W-Item Glitch."
You need 2 to duplicate, and you receive one.
So you have 3.
Why would I buy this item that I see? - What's the reason?
If you were smart, then you would agree! I'm smart too!
It's so much worse, I guarantee! Wasting money on something retarded.
Wanna know why? Just ask the three...You get three if you do it once.
Well, now that I think of it, it actually could be Jessie, Wedge, and Biggs, because they are always giving free items.
I know I'm not supposed to double guess, let it sly by. :)
actually, you only need 1 of any item to duplicate it.
if you only have 1, you need to choose a different item for the duplicating process, and choose that 1 item as your first.
Nope, it's not anything to do with W-Item...
Not Biggs, Jesse, and Wedge...
And not Chocobo Stables...
And here is your hint! (SPOILER)The answer itself is a buyable item
It must be some kind of item that you should really buy to fight some boss or enemy that could be called the three but who could that be?
chocobo lure? You don't need to buy it.... you can pick it up?
hmm the 3 may refer to those 3 men who mention the chocobo carriage?
ahh scrap that forgot rest of riddle....its supposed to be a bad item of some kind....
So does that mean it's not tent either?
It isn't tent and it isnt chocobo lure,and darkswordofchaos, I don't know how to answer that question.
Oh, I misread your question Darksword, I see now that it wasn't directed at me :p
Is it enemy lure?
Nope, Ill give another hint after a couple more guesses.
It's not a Bronze Bangle is it? (Apologies if it's already been guessed)
nope
Now when you say it's a buyable item do you mean actually item or just something you can buy (weapons, accessories, materia, ect)?
Well, this was actually gonna be my next hint:p
(SPOILER)The item can be bought, but not be used with the item command.
Is it a hyper?
Hyper can be used with the item command, so no.
Oohh duh *facepalm* is it a type if nut other than carob nut?
Those are the only items I can think of that you can buy that cannot be used during battles, and no one has guessed
All materia?
cant you by a 1/35 soldier in junon?
no, no, and no...
Also, by "Item", I mean it is either an item, a weapon, armor, or accessory.
Aurora Rod? You get it at Wu-Tai but by the time you get to Wu-Tai you don't have Aeris, I believe.
Actually you will have Aeris with you if you go to Wutai as early as possible, so no.
hint?
My hint...
(SPOILER)Third
As in third disc?
no...
The last line means the item has something to do with "Third"
That hint just made me more confused :(Quote:
Originally Posted by leader of mortals

really hope your riddle is good
:D
I have no clue what it is. Third can be anything, Three can be anything.
Idk, all I can think of is Bahamut ZERO materia cause u get it from the 3rd huge materia you save.
Third? Does that mean it is the third? Like third of it's kind or there are only three?
Would anyone like me to give a hint that should totaly give it away?
Sure but I'm cool with hints that prolong the agony as well.
I wouldn't want to be handed a riddle.
Ok, this isn't the giveaway hint, but it should make it much easier...
(SPOILER)"three" refers to the item that is stronger than the answer
Well there's three ribbons you can get in the game. But there better than all the other accessories. So is it the Safety Bit?
nope
Was I even close in my answer? lol
Actually, you were closer with aurora rod
UGHH! So going along with weapons. Is it the Organics?
nope
Is it the Parasol?
if you mean umbrella, you don't buy that weapon...?Quote:

Just for reference...
Riddle: Why would I buy this item that I see?
If you were smart, then you would agree!
It's so much worse, I guarantee!
Wanna know why? Just ask the three...
Hints: You can buy the item, last line refers to "third" (hehe), three refers to something stronger than the answer, cannot be used with the item command
Wrong answers: 3 batteries, broke vending machine, potions, tranquilizers, tents, curse ring, chocobo stables, W-item glitch, Jesse/Wedge/Biggs, chocobo lure, enemy lure, bronze bangle, hyper, aurora rod, organics, parasol
Is it the Quake or Quake2 materia? Since there is also a Quake3. It can also be purchased in a shop.
I doubt it would be as the majority of materia can be purchased in shops such as Ice, Cure, Fire, Lighting etc, Quake would just be as eligible as the rest of them as they all level up in 3's except the odd few. If it was a materia then it would need a lot more explaining in the riddle which it doesn't.Quote:

I will just have an out and out guess at say Nail Bat
:D
Would it be like an instance when the 4th weapon that you can buy for someone is weaker than the 3rd one that you got? I'm too lazy to go and check if this can actually happen. :p
Riddle: Why would I buy this item that I see?
If you were smart, then you would agree!
It's so much worse, I guarantee!

Hints: You can buy the item, last line refers to "third" (hehe), three refers to something stronger than the answer, cannot be used with the item command
I think that the answer is the 65th Keycard to the shinra building. you can purchase hints for the answer so you're still "buying" the item in a sense, but its pointless if you are "smart" :P I'm just a bit off balance with the whole three thing. cause there are 4 libraries.
No to all so far. And also, a new hint!
(SPOILER)Yes:DQuote:

Wanna know why? Just ask the three
It can be bought
If you were smart with the game you would know you can steal Hardedge
The Saber is worse than the Hardedge
It's stolen from Soldier Third class
Your turn Rantz!
YAY!!!! I can't wait to see you riddle.
Alright! I'll try and make something a bit easier, I suppose. :)
Meet me at the bottom
Take me to the top
Though my power so suggests
You won't spill a drop!
Tifa's limit Dolphin blow. TeeHee
It's not Dolphin Blow!
Repost for new page:
Meet me at the bottom
Take me to the top

Emerald Weapon?
Tifa's limit - Metodive?
Batteries?
wth....leviathian?
Aw, if only I'd followed up with some research :(.Quote:

None right so far.
Is it an Eye Drop?
Not Eye Drops.
Water Ring You can find it at Corral Valley(vallies are low...) on your way up to the Forgotten Capital. And if I had a ring of water I might spill some lolz
No, but it's the closest guess yet. Your reasoning is very much on the right track!
Meet me at the bottom
Take me to the top
Though my power so suggests --- I'm assuming we're looking for what the answer does rather than the name of it.
You won't spill a drop!
I'm going to take a guess at Leviathan Scales. The power is used to put out the fire in Da Chao, you find it in the underwater submarine dock in junon (Bottom) and then you take it to the top of the mountain in Wutai to put out the fire and reach the new area.
Yup, you got it :)
Darn it! *snaps*
Another clever riddle and I should have had that :P
I was the closest lol
It's been too long betweendrinksplaythroughs, my memory is getting foggy. Hopefully I'll have at least something to guess next time xD
OHHH where's the new riddle?
Someone else go! I'm struggling to finish this and I know I wont be able to get it done before the days out ;(
Post so people see the edit above ^
Two of the same kind
Use one to help the other
Patience is still required
But with rewards for pupils
W-ITEM glitch?
No, but good guess.
Chocobo breeding?
Nope.
The Piano in Tifa's room. There are two, one in real time and the other in the flashback. You need the flash back one to know what notes to play right. If you mess up you have to start over so it takes patience and you get Tifa's final limit break when you do it right, and she's one of you pupils.
Is pupils talking about eyes
Not the piano playing.Quote:
