    Glacier witch

    Ok im not exaclty a newcomer to the world of final fantasy, I am especially fascinated with FF7 because of its fantastic plot and fun side-quests.And the fact that I can play so many times through and still be surprised. There are a few little things that elude me, one in particular is that stupid witch which is rumoured to be able to fight in the glaciers.
    I know the routine 'touch the hotspring, find the witch and fight her' but i can NEVER find her, I found her once - before I touched the stupid hot spring - then got lost.
    Maybe I'm just a really bad mapreader, I know I have a terrible sense of direction anyway. Could someone help me out?Please?

    You have to touch the hot springs, then on the map, keep going right.
    Then keep going right, and then down, you should eventually arrive right outside a cave.

    cheers I hope it works, I desperately hope I never have to read a map alone in real life!!!

    After touching the springs, dont just go "right" mkae sure you go in th same direction by placing markers. every 4 steps or so, place a marker in the snow just to stay consistent.
    Of all the games that i find well worth the work, I can only say that three can properly qualify for the category. And of the three, one is, but of corse, FFVII. The other twon games which i couldn't depart from are Xenogears and FFT. And i also found a pattern, All of which were released 1997 or 1998 and were on PS. I have lost some faith in Squaresoft when they merged with Enix, they no longer adapt a well-thought plot as nearly as much as the older titles. And thus, I say to you Square-Enix, "Up yours!"

    Because you died before the party gets to the Glacier.

    It's a bad joke referring to your Aeris avatar and signature.

    see I have the patience to do it just not the mapping and orientational skills.
    I stress my terrible sense of direction and it doesnt help that the map that you're given for the glacier is sooo pants. Doesnt tell me jack about where I am!
    found the witch once by accident, like I said, but I hadnt found the hot spring yet and she just told me to get out.

    The rumour is that you're meant to fight her for some reward .. I have gathered that the reward is the Alexander summon, but I'm not entirely certain as I've never been able to do it in all the many times I've played the game

    Interesting question: could it be done if I had previously left the glacier and returned later in the game?

    I don't remember how to exactly get there but you'll battle her and get Alexander as a reward. And the battle is easy compared to all the time that you'll spend in reaching her. And I didn't like Alexander.

    (SPOILER)but isn't she Aeris's mom?

    EDIT:
    Ravenmorghane:
    Yeah you could. I got the summon in the third disc before I battle Sephy.

    sry mods.

    Ok so is it worth doing then?

    (SPOILER)Ifaina is Aeris' mother and I think that ShinRa killed her so I doubt it very much.
