i had a rare moment once to where the bosses would constantaly commit suicide all the time every one (except separoth & jenova)
there is a code to where you can restore all of you're hp even after battle just open the lid while the battle is over but first cast regain on everybody then open the lid a.s.a.p. or atleast before the victory pose and your hp will still be going when it is filled then shut the lid and there will be like a pause or something and a slowness of music and after a few seconds it will return back to normal and it will even work on bosses (like jenova separoth materia keeper &the two headed dragon dude i dont rember his name so i call him a dragon dude
now this is some thing i want you all to know final fantasy fans there is a secret materia called "death all"this secret matreia appears like every 20 times you play and its hidden around the woti area you continuallasy press curcle untill it appears (it must be done olny on yuffie's subquest and stays out for 50 houres sorry but it dosent last forevor)also the materia casts death on all opponents but theres another death all hidden near rocket town (where you get cid) this one i got it stays there forevor but theres a catch to it you can olny get it when the wepions have been unleashed also death all works on every enemy & boss you of my friends said that areis had this materia
and the death all is real it dosent kill bosses or weaklings
you can get a acc. called tetra elementl from cactars on cactar island when you get the highwind go south ,southwest area and you would find a small island called cactar island and if you already know of it like me then you got the cactars hp low enough to morph it then you have a tetra elementl
you can find the w-item materia on disk 2 you will go all the way back until you are at a dead end with a save point and the materia
sombody told me that you can get sephiroth but what the hell if you get 12 of the 1/35 solders and get the musume then go to the weapon maker/sellerand give him the stuff then you can get sephiroth and can't be used to revive aries
you can duplate items (like gernades) but not wepions,armor or materia but you can duplate mega elixers and you then can beat the wepions faster that way.(also it may take a few try's but it should work)
Here's the long version, so be prepared for a long read! This guide to high stats requires that you know the game pretty well and are comfortable with the Junction system. Therefore, if this is your first time playing the game, you should play it properly the first time, and try this guide after that. If you are experienced at the game, then read on! Firstly, the way to get high stats is not through items that add points to your stats, like 'Str Up', 'HP UP', etc. Instead, the "bonus" abilities are used. If you haven't heard of them, they are 'Str Bonus', 'Mag Bonus' and others. These abilities add an extra point to a certain stat each time you gain a level. But you say, "There's no point in using them! By the time I get those abilities, I've only got a few levels to go before Level 100!". Well, there's a way to solve that. How about going through the game trying as hard as you can NOT to gain levels? If you do it properly, then by the time you get all the bonus abilities, you could have up to 85 levels left. That's 85 bonus points to each stat! But won't this make the game harder? No, because enemies level up as you do, which means if you don't level up neither will they. In fact, this makes the Bosses easier because you are still acquiring better magic and increasing your stats while theirs remain the same! Now, how do you avoid fighting enemies so you can gain no experience? Well, there are several ways to do it. Bosses don't give you experience, which is good, because you can't avoid fighting them. To avoid normal enemies, the simplest way is to run away. If you haven't dealt any damage to an enemy and you run away, you won't gain any experience. Another way is Diablo's ability, 'Enc-None'. This enables you to avoid all random encounters and is an excellent ability, the one that should be used the most. Therefore when you get Diablos you should try to get this ability before anything else. There are a few problems with this. Firstly, there are some fights in the game where you face against normal enemies, so you receive experience, but they are not random enemies, so you can't use 'Enc-None' or run away. Secondly, if you keep running away and avoiding fights, your SeeD level will drop. This means less money! However, you can partially solve this by taking tests. Unfortunately, you can only take a certain number of tests, and since you're not gaining levels, that isn't much. You could also use the money cheat that is in the Secrets section of the webpage, but that is only available near the end of Disc 1 and it still leaves the first problem. The solution is the ability that Quezacotl has, called 'Card'. When you card an opponent, you defeat him but receive no experience! So when you fight against "compulsory" enemies, you can use this ability so that you get no experience! Also, to raise your SeeD level, you can go training, but use 'Card' to kill the enemy. This way, you get AP's for your GF's and items for refining and remodelling, but no experience, and your SeeD level doesn't go down! Just make sure you don't accidentally kill the enemy. To make sure you start off with the highest SeeD level possible, consult the walkthrough and try to get maximum points in each category. However, one of the categories requires that you kill at least 75 enemies to receive maximum points. Well, you CAN do this without leveling up your characters. In the SeeD mission, you have a support character that you don't use after the mission. That's SEIFER! Kill off Squall and Zell, and use Seifer to defeat 75 enemies! Amazingly, Seifer can still perform his limit break at full health if Squall and Zell are KO'd. Use this to your advantage. Destroy enemies either with Seifer's limit break or by using GF's. Another benefit you receive is that your GF's can level up. Still one tiny problem left, though. G-Soldiers and Esthar Soldiers have no card, so cannot be carded. What do you do when fighting them? Well, if you have to get experience, try to get as little as possible. Keep your strongest party member and kill off the others so they don't receive any experience. Then, kill the enemies quickly. If you have break, use it. If you have any bonus abilities at this time, equip them so you receive at least a partial gain. Now to training. Where is the best place to train? The Islands Closest to Heaven and Hell, of course. A few problems here. Firstly, you don't have enough bonus abilities for everyone. You have enough for two people. Cactuar gives you all the abilities and you can get the rest by equiping Shiva, Ifrit, etc. Kill off the other character so he/she receives no experience. The second problem is that there are five bonus abilities but you can't fit all of them. Well, firstly make sure you can fit four. Equip Bahamut on one person, he has 'Ability x 4', and for the other character, make a GF learn 'Ability x 4' by using a Rosetta Stone on them. Rosetta stones can be found in the Esthar shopping mall. Keep trying to get into Cheryl's shop until you get one. You can also refine PuPu's card into a Hungry Cookpot then refine that into a Rosetta stone. Now you can fit four bonus abilities. Which one should you exclude? Well, I would say you should exclude the ability for the stat that you can max out on your own. Guess which one that is? HP! Yes, you can max out HP without the bonus abilities by using 'HP+80%' and by junctioning 'Full-life' or 'Holy' to it. So the abilities you should have junctioned to your two characters are: 'Str Bonus', 'Mag Bonus', 'Vit Bonus', and 'Spr Bonus'. Now for the final problem. The monsters in the Islands of Heaven and Hell are on Level 100. You are on about level 20, and worse, you can't use any character abilities like 'Str+60%' or even 'Initiative'. How will you survive? Now, this is why I told you to play the game once over first. In your first party have Squall, Selphie and Quistis. Kill off Squall, and put the bonus abilities on Selphie and Quistis. Make sure they both have the highest HP possible (junction 'Full-life' or 'Holy' to HP) and the highest speed (junction Triple or Haste). Give Selphie the 'Revive' ability and put Quistis in critical health so she can use her limit break. When you fight, use the Blue Magic 'Degenerator', because it kills everything except Bosses and Tonberries. Yes, it even works on Ruby Dragons, and it's 100% effective. Now, you are going to run around the toughest training areas in the game on level 20 or so, with one party member KO'd and another in critical. Sound's hard? It is, but the reward is well worth it. As soon as you get into a battle, use Quistis's 'Degenerator'. If you're lucky, you can do this before the enemy kills you. If Quistis gets KO'd, or you get hit with 'Bad Breath', run away quick. Make sure you save after every battle, because you are cheating death here! However, due to the fact that the bigger the difference in levels between you and the enemy, the more experience you get, you will be receiving tremendous amounts of experience. In my first battle with the bonus abilities equiped, I managed to kill a Malboro on level 16 and after the battle, I gained 10000 experience, enough to raise me to level 26! After Quistis and Selphie are on level 100, you have two options regarding your next party. The easier but longer option is to keep Quistis on your team, revive Squall and switch Selphie with Rinoa, making your party Squall, Rinoa and Quistis. Give Quistis 'Vit + 40%' and 'Spr + 40%', and junction Meltdown to her vitality and Reflect to her spirit. If you also give her 'Initiative' and 'HP + 80%', you will have an unstoppable fighting machine in your hands! However, this method of training is slower, because having level 100 Quistis in your party raises your average party level, reducing the amount of experience you receive. Also, since the character who kills the enemy gets more experience, this will also reduce the experience you get. The other option is to make your party Squall, Zell and Irvine, with Squall still KO'd, and using either Zell's 'Duel' or Irvine's 'Shot' to kill the enemies. I recommend 'Duel' because 'Shot' uses up ammo while 'Duel' is free. Fighting battles now, though, is even harder than before, because you have no instant death attack, but it's quicker. For your third party, just put the bonus abilities on who you haven't trained yet and make the third member either Quistis or Squall, depending on who you used before. Now that all of your party members are on level 100, this is how to max out your stats. The first time you played, you may have been able to max out Squall's stats by junctioning 'Ultima' to Strength and using 'Str + 60%'. This time though, you won't need the 'Str + 60%' at all. 100 'Ultimas' are enough to max out strength. What you should be looking forward to, however, is maxing out your Vitality and Spirit. As I mentioned before, use 'Vit + 40%' and 'Spr + 40%'. This, along with 'Meltdown' junctioned to Vitality and 'Reflect' junctioned to Spirit, is enough to max out both of them. To max out your HP, junction 'Full-life' or 'Holy' to HP and equip the ability 'HP + 80%'. This leaves you with one character ability free, if you have 'Ability x 4'. Here you can put 'Mug', 'Initiative', 'Enc-None', or whatever you wish. Now that all your characters are buffed up to the limit, try fighting the Ultima Weapon, and laugh when it's 'Meteor' does 25 damage per hit, or when it's 'Quake' only takes 200 off your life. Watch out for 'Light Pillar' though. It does 9999 damage no matter what your Spirit factor is. Have fun with your god-like characters!!!!
