    Default emeralds time limit

    this gets me every time! i cant be arsed to level up half my materia (meaning i can only use KOTR once then mime it) but according to the final fantasy guru (my buddy paul ) i can morph a ghost ship to get an item i can exchange for under water materia which will get rid of the time limit. problem is the ghost ships are in the under water reactor which has now been closed off. the ghost ships appear in the battle arena too, but i may have to fight several battles befor he shows up and then may get flipped out the arena (bloody annoyin that!) anyone know if there is a way around this?

    You've got many choices open to you. You can i) level up your materia; ii) fight in the battle square and morph the Ghost Ship there or; iii) give up and play another game until you decide which of the other options you'd prefer.

    i dont even want to touch KOTR. it deals out damage fast which is good for beating the time limit. i'll try to get rid of the time limit, then i can try and defeat him with some dignity

    Quadra Magic linked to mastered Gravity used with W-Magic is a good starting point. You could implement a HP and MP Absorb in there somewhere too if you so wished. That's 79,992 damage per turn, which isn't bad.

    Another way to beat Emerald WEAPON is to master a maximum of eight Mimes and copy Omnislash, Highwind, Ungarmax or Doom of the Living. The other two characters would have to remain idle for this to work though.

    the inside of the underwater reactor is closed off... true. however, the place that you encounter ghost ships are NOT closed off, therefore you can still morph them at any point in the game. and yes, you could morph them at the battle arena.

    the w-magic plus quadra magic is already part of my set-up. but isnt gravity the same as demi? i would of thought he would be immune to that. if not then that is definitley going to be tried.

    does having more than one mime mean you can mime something more than once in the same time? if so then that is awesome.there is so much i dont know

    Gravity is the name of the Materia that grants you the Demi spells. Emerald is not immune to gravity damage, so it's quite handy.

    Having multiple Mimes allows you to mime something more than once per turn, up to a maximum of eight times. The same applies for CounterAttack, Counter and Magic Counter materia.

    i had a feeling you could still go down there. oh my god. let me tell you guys a story.

    okay so i lose my ps1 memory card and i'm looking and looking for weaks. it was a good one, the double packed thing with the 30 save files. i had like EVERYTHING (from ffiv to ffix and ct and cc) in there and i lost it. i've been looking and looking ALLLL over the house, and i never brought it anywhere out of the house, so it has to be here. i went on vacation for a month, still not satisfied. i come back and realize, geez, i really haven't played any games for awhile, especially ffvii! so i'm getting the game and the ps2 n i figure out that i STILL haven't found my ps1 memory card! pissed and pissed i looked around the house 738294732 times, with no luck. i still haven't found it, and i have no idea where it is. no freaking clue at all. so, frustrated, i decide to just order a cheap, regular, 3 dollar ps1 memory card which will be coming within 1 to 2 days. but i'll never be satisfied until i find my beloved ps1 filled memory card.

    the end.

    isn't that weak? poor me without my memories in the memory card...

    Thank you Hysterian!

    if you can only cast KoTR once use the mime materia and youll be able to cast it a few more times.
