Can somebody tell me a good place to level up?

[Dragonfire]

If you fury your characters, you will usually hit your limit break with one hit of his spell ("Everyone's Grudge" I think it's called.) This is good for raising your limit level if you haven't gotten the lvl. */2's yet.

If you don't wanna run into emerald, just go to it above water then drop down. Though, after awhile emerald just stays in the same spot (near the red sub.) Anyone know what the condition is for him to do that?

[Mo-Nercy]

Out of my experience under the FFVII sea. Emerald is either swimming around, camped outside the Gelnika, camped outside the red sub or hovering over a crater. If he's moving, he never stops, if's he still, he never moves, unless you go back to surface, enter a different screen etc.

[Auron_Kotetsu]

Aright, boyo, here's how y' do it. This'n 'll work, believe you me. First, go to the Gold Saucer, somehow procure 1000 GP, and get an EXP Plus materia at the Wonder Square (I reccommend racing Chocobos to get good GP.) Slap that on whoever you want to level fastest, take the sucker down to the Northern Cave's Lifestream Rooms (on the left path, with the weird neuron-looking things all over the place.) and divide him so that everyone's got one. You could also just buy 3 of them at the Gold Saucer... Might be quicker. That'll level you like nobody's business. Magic Pots and Master Tonberries are your friends.

The sunken Gelnika is great for morphing Sources out of all the monsters, but the Crater beats it in the EXP department.

Have fun with that.

Well, Cloud, Vincent, and Yuffy are now level 99. I have a few questions though. First, how do I get Cait Sith's second limit break? I wanna use it over and over till I get the instant kill on Ruby weapon. Next question; can his instant kill (3 cait siths in a row) kill emerald weapon too? Next question; How do I get the timer off and where do I get the item? Last question; where do I get Typhoon, Alexander, and Bahamut Zero. I have every other summon.

[Demitri_Maximov]

Yeah...you just had me waste 1000 gp on an extra gil materia. It's the 2000 gp one that's exp. and the 500 one was a carob nut. I bought all 3 just to make sure. I have about 4000 gp left. Anyways, does anybody know what food increases the speed of chocobos? This guy Teioh has about 170 speed and 1400 or so stamina. My chocobo has 152 speed and 999 stamina. I can't seem to win against him.

[Auron_Kotetsu]

jeez, i'm sorry, had a brain fart with the exp plus thing.... hope i didn't set you back too much...

*feels like an ass*

erm... yeah... i think i'll be in that corner over there.

[Demitri_Maximov]

No Problem. I have so much GP, it's really no big deal. I always seem to get the lucky draw when I win in Chocobo Racing. I always get the sprint shoes, or chocobracelet, or counter. I got about 3500 gp in one night of racing before. heh

[Auron_Kotetsu]

OH! OH! I CAN help you out with all those questions though! Okay! (PROMISE i won't screw up this time.)

Cait Sith's Limit break comes from getting kills, i BELIEVE (i hope someone will back me up on this... after the exp plus thing, i have no confidence). So just use him to kill stuff a lot.

To turn off the timer on Emerald, go to the tunnels leading to the Underwater Reactor, and Morph a Ghost Ship. It will turn into a Guide Book. Go to Kalm and bring it to the man in the top floor of the rightmost house. He'll give you "Underwater" materia, which nixes the timer.

Typhoon is in the Ancient Forest, that green lump thing on the mountain near Cosmo Canyon. I really don't want to tell you how to do all that to get it, but if i have to, hit me back. I owe you for the stupid exp thing.

Alexander is in Great Glacier. I'm short on time now, but i'll edit how to get it later if you need me to. To put it shortly, touch the hot springs, and then find the woman in the cave and talk to haer. She'll attack you, and winn ing the battle will net you Alexander.

Bahamut ZERO is at Cosmo Canyon. Go up in Bugenhagen's machine, and look at the Huge Materia. "Talk" to the light blue one, and you'll receive Bahamut ZERO. (I love the way that's capitalized... have to say it with a big deep voice and an echo every time.)

[Demitri_Maximov]

Maybe my game is just screwed up. I have 3 giant materias in Bugenhagen's place. I touched all 3. Still haven't gotten anything. I can't find a cave with a woman in it for Alexander. I found a place that looked like a person used to be there. The place in the middle of the lake. Also, I have tried to press O on the lake, but it doesn't say I touched the hotspring. I got Cait Sith's second level limit and I took Ruby down after 18 tries with the slots. HAHAHA! I love 1 hit kills on weapons. Finally, I am a bit confused on the underwater reactor thing. I have just started playing from my last save, which was past the underwater reactor. Where are these caves, and how do I fight if I'm in the submarine? Oye...I know how to morph and all that stuff. I just don't know how I'm supposed to be fighting underwater unless there is a place for me to get out of the sub and fight, like the sunken gelnika.

[Demitri_Maximov]

Well, I got the map from the pirate ship. I don't remember where Kalm is though. So I still don't know exactly what I'm doing.

[Demitri_Maximov]

NvM. Found it. Alright. Just to be prepared, what materia should I have on my guys when I fight Emerald Weapon. Let me know, because I will take a week if need be to master every single materia needed. I have already got almost 3 of all the summon materia. Haven't gotten 2 of KOTR yet, but if it can be "born", I will get 1 on all 3 of my characters.

[Auron_Kotetsu]

Erm... okayyyy.... emerald, i'm still working on. but i CAN tell you what i've heard works.

All you really need are 5 Materia: W-Summon, KOTR, and 3 Mimes. Bonus points if you equip a "Counter" Materia (NOT "COUNTER ATTACK"!!! The blue one! NOT purple!) attached to each Mime. Mastered Counters work best. You also have to link W-Summon to KOTR. A good idea is also to have a Mastered "Final Attack" linked to a Mastered "Phoenix" on each character. By doing this, the battle SHOULD go like this:
W-Summon KOTR once. Proceed to Mime it with each of your characters until the battle ends. Whenever a character's hit, they'll also counter with a Mime of the W-Summoned KOTR. If a character should die, their final attack will trigger a Phoenix summon, casting Life2 on the whole party. Just remember that if anyhting else but KOTR should happen, you have to W-Summon it using the actual command so that the rest of your party can Mime it.

I haven't actually _tried_ this, though. This is just compiled from strats i've heard. so if it turns out to suck, don't hang me!

[Demitri_Maximov]

Counter...I get that at chocobo racing, right? Do I get that more than once, because I traded mine for GP. I always trade for GP.

auron_ kotetsu/demitri_maximov

nice triks on the weapons they all work but try to have hp/mp switch materia in all coz u need the 9999 mp else you won't be able to revive/counter enough and it doesnt matter about the 999hp coz u will b reviveing with phoenix/final attack combo

demitri_maximov

you need certain materia to get the stuff from huge materia in buganhagen's(prob spellt wrong but who cares) lab i know for bahamut ZERO you need the previous 2 bahamut summons and yellow materia you need all other command(yellow) materias but i cant remember wot you get and i dont know for the other one. lady at the glacier is at the far right at the top of hill and is extremely anti-social.

[one_winged_angel]

hope it helps
