I could never find the "final attack" materia, but you needed to have phoenix mastered for it to work forever. (and final attack too I think)AvsJoe said:
Did you ever they the regen trick? When you cast regen, then pop the lid of the PS1, the game would stall, but regen would continue to heal your party.
You've got a lot ahead of you. It took over 70 for me, mostly from grinding for levels and limit breaks. Average time seems to be about 30 - 40 hours.
Not forever. 5x per battle if both materia were mastered. After the fifth Phoenix, you've got to win the battle. Final Attack was in the materia forest that opens up after the flying Weapon is killed, I think. Forgive me, it's been a while.Sneaklemming said:
I knew about it but I was always afraid that this would break my game somehow so I refrained from ever doing it. Besides, that reeeally feels like cheating and I hate cheating in games.Sneaklemming said:
did it in 36 hours beating both weapons and getting a gold chocobo.. in a single sitting with a friend of mine, back when I had nothing to do with my time in the world but to play video games in ungodly long marathon sessions.Spaceman_Spiff said:
you've barely even started, you only have about 3 or 4 materia? and 3 or 4 slots per character... you will get hundreds and 16 equipable per character. It gets quite "depthful"omega 616 said:
Nah cheatings when you got one of those hack memory cards and play thru the game as sepherioth... hahaAvsJoe said:
I thought that the final attack and pheonix was more of a hack.
Much like a good book, Final Fantasy is best enjoyed when you can get into the Storyline. If you're having a hard time doing that, then little things like annoying sidequests and timed boss fights (I actually had a firm hatred for the train part) will make you want to metaphorically break your disks.
If you're having a hard time getting into 7, seriously consider another part of Final Fantasy, if you want to stay in the genre. If you want something fast, and easy, you could always dig up a copy of Phantasy Star 4
. God that was a good game back in the day lol.

I would advise against using a strategy guide for your first run-through unless something really stumps you. I have played JRPGs both with guides, with shitty guides, and without guides at all; I enjoyed them most without guides, and then with shitty guides (because I can write notes in the margins for the next person who happens to use the book, in this case my brother) and then regular guidebooks with full walkthroughs sort of spoil the games. If you'd like to do a second run-through where you can explore every little nook and cranny to get every item and whatnot, you can do that, but don't let the game beat itself for you.
