This is a short help gudie, given to you by Ensim

Master Materias
To get the 3 Master Materias, beat Emerald Weapon and you will get the Earth Harp and go to Kalm and give it to a Kalm Trader who will give you these 3 materias.

"Alternative way to get Master Materias" To master either the Master Magic (green), Master Summon (red), or Master Command (yellow) materias, master all the materias of that type and talk to the Huge materias of the respective color at the Cosmo Canyon observatory. You can have any number of Master materias this way. --- "Extra Elemental Materia" An extra Elemental Materia can be found in Tifa and Cloud's hometown at only one point in the game. There is a point where Cloud has been lost and Tifa is leading the party. Before you search for Cloud, return to Tifa's house in Nibelheim and go upstairs. Activate the piano and Tifa will say something like, "Cloud played here" and you will get the extra Elemental Materia.

Turtle Paradise Prizes
There are six posters placed up across the game. When you get all six and give them to the Turtle Paradise Restuaraunt in Wutai.

"Turtle Paradise Poster 1" - Sector 5 Slums, on the Wall Upstairs in house, east side of town

Easter Eggs
"Cactuar Ghost in Snowboarding Game" It's possible to unlock a hidden ghost in the snowboarding mini-game at Gold Saucer, but it's very difficult to do.

Get a satisfactory score in all of the courses and a yellow balloon will appear near the start of the mini-game that activates Time Attack. Get through the Beginner Course and then choose to retry. Now, start Time Attack and go to the Beginner Course. There'll be a silver balloon there that increases your speed when collected.

Here's the tough part: You must set a record of under 00'54''000 on the Beginner Course. If you succeed, start Time Attack mode and pause the game. Go to options and then ghost. You'll notice a new "? ? ?" option at the bottom. Select it and a running cactuar will replace the moogle. The ghost and your record can be saved on your file.

Secrets
"All Lucky 7s" If a character's HP is 7777 at any time during battle, it will go into a frenzy of super-accelerated, uncontrollable attacks, each hitting for 7777 damage to a random enemy. If a character has 7777 HP at the end of the battle, its HP will be reduced to 1 when you return to the field.

"Fast leveling" You must have a controller with a turbo button for this to work. Level your characters so they can do over 1,000 damage. Then, stand in the swamp next to the chocobo farm. tie a rubber band around the circle button, so its pressed down, and make sure the turbo feature is on. then when the snake attacks you, you will automatically attack, defeat him, and then he will run into again, and you reapeat the process, without lifting a finger! its recomended that you leave your playstation on at night and do this, so when you wake up, you will have leveled characters!

"Easy Strength Gain" You need the Morph materia and a character's ultimate weapon(optional but makes it easier when morphing) for this to work. Go to the Gongaga Reactor(the ruined one) and go to the reactor itself in the place and just walk around until you get into a battle, you should fight a Heavy Tank(the triceratops tank,if i'm right it's a 100% encounter rate) and use morph and it'll turn to a power source. You can keep morphing these guys into power sources and easily max a character's strength out.

"Red sub" To get reno's red sub you must fail the attack on the red sub(Don't crash it). When you can go back to junon, go to the submarine dock and once there talk to the dog blocking the door and it will move leaving you to go through. Now the sub will be there and you can take it. However you will miss one huge materia this way

"How to get into Midgar in disc 3" If you try to get back into Midgar you will see a man standing by the door who will say that he lost the key on a tour of bone village. Go to bone village and order a search by the tent at the top of the village. This may take a couple of trys but when you get it you enter sector 5 by Aeris's church and you can go to sector 6 as well.

"Get Knights of the Round Summon" To get this cool summon spell you will need to breed a gold chocobo and go to a island that is not on the map but if in the top right corner. In the cave on the island you will find the ultimate summon spell that does 70,000+ damage when used once, And if you have it in lvl 4 it can make up to 130.000 damage!

"Cactuar island." Cactuar island is an island so small it wont show up on the radar and this is the only place you can run into cactuars.

First off you need the airship. When you have the airship go fly above cosmo canyon. Then go strait south. It will be hard to miss.

"Easy Battle Square handicaps" Rapidly tap Square during the "slot machine" handicap sequence in the Battle Square section at Gold Saucer. The slots will slow down, allowing an easier selection of your handicap. Note: This trick will also work in a similar manner with Cait Sith's limit break.

"Easy Stat source items" In the downed plane where you find Heavens cloud, every enemy morphs into some sort of source! A really easy way to do this is to get Yuffie doing good damage (5000 and up?) and have her morph them, as her weapon dosn't lower the damage of morph. Another great thing to do is to combine the mega all materia to get all the enemies at once. Even one hour of this will show great results!

"Learning the enemy-skill (chocobuckle)" This is no doubt the most difficult enemy-skill to obtain. First you must have the enemy-skill "level 4 suicide" which can be learned from the "Mu" enemies, and you must have 3 mimett greens. Now equip the "chocobo lure" and "sense" materia and find a chocobo around the chocobo ranch area on the chocobo footprints, once you find one, use the sense command on the chocobo to see if its level 16 (since "level 4 suicide" only affects targets whose level is a multiple of 4.) If it is level 16, feed the chocobo your three mimett greens and cast level 4 suicide on the stuffed bird, the chocobo will counter with "chocobuckle", hitting the one who casted "level 4 suicide". Finally, chocobuckle is yours.

"Unlimited elixirs" You can get unlimited elixirs. In the ice field there's a cave with an elixir in it. Grab it but DON'T push the X-button to let the text disappear that says that you've got an elixir. Normally you can't do anything when that message is on screen but this place is an exception; here you can walk out the cave and re-enter and get it again and again... Note that if you let the text disappear the item will be removed from the screen and you can't get it again.

Glitches
"Item Duplication" You have to have the W-Item Materia for this to work. Equip it, and select the first item and use it. Then select your second item, do not use it, just place the cursor on someone. Then Press the cancel button, select the item again and press cancel. Keep repeating this and the first item you used will keep increasing by one.

"Reverse Back-attacks" When you enter a random battle, and you find yourself attacked from behind, hold down R1+L1 to run from the battle, then let go and you are facing the enemies.

"Getting the Quadra Magic without a Chocobo" There is a way to get the materia "Quadra Magic" without having to breed a River Chocobo. You'll need the Highwind. Fly it to the most southwestern tip of land on the map and you'll notice a cave. Follow this back (Mideel way) until you get to a slightly upraised piece of land. Go as far as you can to the edge of the cliff. Face the Highwind south. Press the land button and quickly but lightly press R1. The Highwind should land half on the cliff and half off. You can now walk up to the cave and get the Quadra Magic.

"Ancient Forest Revival" After you gain acess to the Ancient Forest, there is a way to revive your characters without using a Phoenix Down. If you have a dead character, walk into one of the "fly traps" and make it swallow you. When it spits you back out, your dead character will be revived (with one HP left :P )

"Tougher Enemies for Fast Leveling and AP" This glitch is exploitable after passing through Junion the first time and returning via the ship after completing the episode at Gold Saucer. Board the ship at Costa del Sol. Go to Junion and head away from the dock that the ship is at. Follow the main road to the tunnel that divides the city in two. In the tunnel there should be a number of Shinra soldiers drilling. On the left wall, there is a red box. Go up to it and press the action button. You should hear a siren going off. Walk arround and you will get into random encounters with enemies that aren't supposed to be encountered until Junion is attacked by Weapon on disc 2. You will probably need to use summons and magic contiuously during your first few battles to defeat the enemies. Don't forget to save money on potions, ethers, and pheonix downs by using the Junion Inn, which is also a good place to save.
