Crisis Core Materia Fusion Guide & Stat Modifier Trick
Posted by 
April 8, 2008 •
This is the Crisis Core Materia Fusion Guide, it’s meant to help you master Materia Fusion in Final Fantasy Crisis Core to create materia for buffs like +999% HP, +100 Stats, get tips for farming and so much more.
Crisis Core Materia Fusion Guide will help you even the odds against the monsters in Crisis Core and even help you defeat Minerva ^_^. So without further pause:
The Crisis CoreMateria Fusion Guide
The main requirement is that your finish mission 7-2-1 for the Item fusion tome (item fusion).
Note:
Many people don’t understand that 7-2-1, here’s an example:
Mission-> 7 (Seeking Priceless Items)->2 (Precious Things->1 (Seek and Destroy)..
Note: this will be available at Chapter 5 (when you meet Aeris/Aerith).

HP modifier
To those starting at the game, that have small money, you can try this…
Requirements:
Potions and Hp Ups
Potion=buy from shop
Hp Up+= Steal or Mug from Vajradhara Indra in mission 4-4-1 (Easy Mission) (if you’re having hard time dealing with this monster, try the second option)
Steal Materia Location
Mission 7-4-1 (Treasure Chest)
Mission 8-3-6 (Treasure Chest)
Note: The mission difficulty depends on Zack’s Level..
Note: The picture below is a monster that can be fight at normal encounter (not a mission boss), so you can fight it all over again without completing the mission (hassle free)
Option 2:
Mission 4-2-5 (Very Easy Mission) (thanks to yuimishima for the tip)…
If you collected the needed requirements, proceed to materia fusion
First we combine the 2 Hp Up+ that we stole and Potion(80) like this…
Ok, combine again a 2 Hp Up+ and Potion(80), so the result will be 2 Hp Up+ with +70% each..
Then we will combine those 2 like this
After that, create again a HP up+ with 70%, then do this
Then repeat the process again, to increase the percent of the Hp Materia..
Now for those who like to link them to magic like curaga, combine Hp UP materia + curaga materia
Example Hp+999% + Curaga= Curaga+999%
Costly Punch Materia
Now if you have HP+999%, then we proceed to the 99999 damage modifier
Requirements:
Adaman Bangle(Mission chest or reward) or Genji Armor(100% DMW) or Divine Slayer (Defeating Minerva)= Accessories that breaks HP limit
Brutal(Mission Chest or Reward, Genji Glove(Mission Chest) and Divine Slayer= Accessories that break damage Limit
Costly Punch
How to get costly punch:
Combine any punch materia + any dmw materia (like Megaflare dmw materia or Octaslash materia)..
Magical Punch Materia
Mission 1-5-4 (Treasure Chest)
Mission 4-5-6 (Reward)
Mission 5-4-2 (Reward)
Mission 6-5-5 (Treasure Chest)
Mission 7-5-5 (Treasure Chest)
Mission 9-3-4 (Reward)
Iron Fist Materia
Mission 3-5-2 (Treasure Chest)
Mission 5-3-3 (Reward)
Mission 7-5-1 (Treasure Chest)
Mission 9-2-5 (Reward)
Goblin Punch Materia
Mission 4-5-4 (Reward)
@DMW Materia
Bone Village Commerce (Shop)
Mission 7-5-3(Treasure Chest)
When finish, this will be the result..
Costly punch damage is based on your maximum hp and it ignores enemy vit, but it causes 0 damage when:
Example is the picture above
Zack has 55,836(max HP) but the HP break is 93,200 that causes costly punch damage to 0
You must have the exact HP or lower to dish out the 99999 damage…
When your HP breaks (because of that dmw reel), unequip your HP modifier then equip it again, then heal hehe…
SP Gathering
Now that you have costly punch..
We need to gather a huge amount of SP to do Materia Fusion (if you want +999% HP modifier)
This is the monster that give huge amount of SP, it is located in mission 8-6-1, 2-3-3, 6-4-1, its called RE Movers
If you want money gathering while getting SP, equip this
then this is what you get…
a 4000 SP & a Gold Armlet
So while you gathering SP, you also have Gold Armlet that you can sell for 3000G

Wow! This is a great guide! I’m always getting killed in the missions 9-x-x. 🙁
Allen’s last blog post..Ltrics Heaven – Complete Archive of Ltrics
Hehe.. I finished the game with this guide (one of the reasons why I’m so slow with updates on my blogs) and now re-playing with Hard mode ^^
how do i obtain the adaman bangle. what missions or chests?
er you could’ve at least used the search function:
Adaman Bangle
Mission 7-3-6(Reward)
Mission 9-2-4(Treasure Chest)
Are there some missions, where I can get a lot of Adamantitte, Hero Drink, Dark Matter etc.???
And where can I get HP UP +… I just have HP UP, so I can’t raise my HP up to 99999?!
Right now I’m farming hard on mission 9-3-1 (a third power) where I get 1 hammer punch/goblin punch per steal and 1 black belt per kill.
What’s your materia setup btw Sylver?
Allen’s last blog post..Catching Up Again 031408
I just got my Curaga to + 999% HP ^_^
My setup.. err.. Just the Costly Punch, Curaga, some DMW Materia, Mug.. Forgot how to get Smart Consumer though
where can I get hero drink, dark matetr, etc… are there some good missions, where I could find alot of them?
Hero drink is given as a reward is SOME missions but it’s totally random
Dark Matter = 9-5-3 from worm
here’s what you need for a smart consumer:
~Steal (Master) + Libra
or
~Steal + Dash
hey, btw, you can find Nibel Accessories shop at Mission 6-4-4: Hiding in the Wasteland in a Chest. ^_^
you can buy all shock swords and preventtive shields.
does anyone knows where to farm Zeio Nut (AP+10%) or AP Makos, AP Stones?
I tried to find the magic pot in mission 7-6-6, but there is no magic pot coming… did I sth wrong??
I’ve found a new shop: Treasure Chest in Mission 2-4-1 and the new shop is called Junon Souvenirs… there you can buy Chocobo Stump, 1000 Needles, etc
@biosong and galardo..
thanks for the info. I’ll update the post and inform the creator of the guide
to everyone and sylv3rblade
i have found an easier way of farming Adamantite ^^
go to 7-6-4 (The Irritated Recruiter)
random battle a driller machine(yellow color) named Crazy Sword (this is also the boss for this mission)
this machine will die in 2 99999 hits.
in a ddition, the same machine also gives BRUTAL if you steal/mug.
note that in order to get these items you must have the Mog’s Amulet, if not you will only get Guard Stone from Stealing and no Adamantite.
beware of the
G Hoplite B’s shadow swith skill, it stops you and hits twice damage you very much.
Crazy Sword’s Drill Attack skill, hits me once and i am always dead.lol
enjoy^^
note:
my HP is only 46902 while doing this mission.
to answer my own question, Zeio Nut can be harvested from Bees, ofcourse equip the Mog’s Amulet
@galardo
try Mission 10-2-3 and using the following skills/magic on it when it asks for them: Jump, Fira, Gravity, and Spin Attack
much easier.^^
to add another option in farmiing SP, try the mover EX, it gives 8000 SP and gives Rune Amulet and Sells for 4000Gil
mover EX can be found 7-6-5
im using mog’s amulet
spin attack = assault twister
@biosong: I have a problem… I have no Gravity, Fira and Jump at all… do you know, where I can steal that Materia or is there any shop where I can buy that?
@galardo
there are a lot of ways to get gravity
in 4-2-5, in a certain chest
in 8-3-2, in a certain chest
in 8-3-4, in a certain chest
in 9-3-3, as a reward
in 9-4-2, in a certain chest
it is also a treasure right before tseng was added to your DMV
unfortunately i dont knwo any shop that sells it,nor i dont recall a monster i stole that from, what you can try is if you fought a monster that uses gravity, most likely you can steal the same materia from it, just use mog’s amulet.
now, Fira can be bought at The Happy Turtle Shop for 3000G
same with jump, i recall fighting a leaping monster and just use steal, or you can fuse (Power Attack + AP Up), or you can have Jump at 3-2-2 from one of the chests and as a reward in 6-1-3
Assault Twisteris dropped by Ifrit, Genesis Baldor
a reward in 2-5-1
from a chest in 3-2-2 (needs to be in chapter 8)
for your convinience, you can always refer to other guides. ^_^ google it. hehehe
OK thank you dude, I think now I would manage it ^^
there’s a more easier way to get money and farm SP at the same time.
in mission 6-3-5 -> Item in the Coal Mines
1. equip Mog’s Amulet, safety-bit or any other anti-death accessory
2. you may equip Dispel
-kill demons. you can steal magic up++, and Darkness materia can be obtained from each demon. they are very easy to kill. however, demons cast wall on themselves, so this where Dispel is useful.
-convert the Darkness into SP.
darkness = 6040 SP
*kill 20 demons (20 darkness) = 120,800 SP
it’s much better than spending time killing Movers.
———————————————-
also, there are two types of monsters that go with demons:
-Hornet: you can steal hi-potion, and they also drop hi-potion
-Boundfat: you can steal Crystal Bracelet, they drop SPR mako stone
sell the Crystal Bracelet for 7500gil each.
I’ve found the perfect mission for getting alot of SP: Mission 9-5-3 (Unusually Strong Monsters) there is the Mover RE, which gives you 20000 SP when you kill… if you first kill the other monster and then the jumping balls, you can get 20000×2 or 20000×3… so finally you could gain more than 100000 SP for one fight =)
That rulezZ
YESSSS… I’ve got all Genji Items (Genji Armour, Genji Gloves, Genji Shield)… and now I’ll finish the last mission.
lucky you galardo
i have no luck in getting the octoslash reel..
right now im finishing allmissions before i leave shinra bldg, why?? coz you get FREE pheonix down anytime, so you like have 2 lives every mission.
oh and btw, theres some unique items i come across, the one will multiply your max hp/mp/ap max x3, cool? i also manage to steal a RIBBOn, i wonder when can i get the super ribbon from magic pot.. spoke too soon, super ribbon seems to be a reward(9-6-2). hahaha
@xatm095
the figures you mention is quite impressive, however true to what galardo said, the mover RE is easy to beat than the demons plus you dont need to wear anti death, you can kill movers in 1hit. you get an item also after killing a mover so you can sell that, i think its 10000 worth item.
to add to your guide, there is this item that dooubles the drop of a monster, so if you equop that you can gather whatever item you wish twice as fast. good for the adamantite farmiing. ^^
@galardo
you are missing the Genji Helm. lol gives you Auto Libra and 0 AP/MP consumption.
to get it? buy it. hahahaha
You do realize that the monster with 20,000 SP isn’t Mover RE it’s called Three Stars, right? 😛
@ biosong: I’ve a tip for getting the Genji Shield from the magic pot… buy Octaslash in the shop “Research Dept. QMC +” one or two times, than equip and voila you have a better chance in getting the Octaslash.
I did it in that way and after 1-2 hours I got the Genji Shield
here’s another tip if you want to be a MILLIONAIRE… ^^
go to minerva.
equip needed
~Mug or Steal
~Brigand’s Gloves (Grants a successful steal from an enemy)
steal the 99x Pheonix Down and sell it to shops, INSTANT 495,000gil
do it again and again.
regarding magic pot locations:
o There are 4 different Magic Pots
o The VERY FIRST TIME you successfully give a Magic Pot what it wants, you will receive the Magic Pot Tricks (DMW).
o(10-2-3) asks for: Jump, Fira, Gravity, Assault Twister.
Rewards:
2nd+ Time = Feather Cap OR Doc’s Code.
o(2-2-6) asks for: Blizzaga, Firaga, Thundaga, Gravity.
Rewards:
2nd+ Time = Precious Watch OR Cursed Ring.
o(2-5-4/2-5-5/2-5-6) asks for: Ultima, Triple Fire, Iron Punch, Electrocute.
Rewards:
2nd+ Time = Jeweled Ring OR Assault Targe.
o(7-6-6) asks for: Gil Toss, Costly Punch, 99999 Damage, Octaslash.
Rewards:
2nd Time = Genji Shield (You can get another if you equip it).
3rd+ Time = Impervious or Full Cure (M).

hi guys got another tip about getting genji shield in 7-6-6
first have a mastered octoslash and a lucky stars then equip lucky stars 1st and go into battle, and let the dmw spin to cissnei and hope you get a lvl 5 lucky stars
when done, unequipped the lucky stars and equip the octoslash and go find the magic pot, satisfy the 1st 3 conditions the magic pot wants and wait for octoslash to happen, if you have a mastered octoslash it will happen for you.
i have tried this method and it work 3 times in a row for me with the spoils as genji shield on the 1st, impervious on the 2nd and full cure materia on the 3rd.
hope this info helps for fellow gamers.
here is some easier tips to get those materias fused with +100 stats with only using 2 sets of 99 adamantite for every fused materia shown in Atma Xplorer page accordingly.
first is +100 mag stats, after completing mission 9-6-4, the reward is a +100 exaflare mastered materia, you can use this materia to fuse a ultima with +100 mag stats directly using flare + the mastered exaflare reward.
next for spirit stats using mythrils, rather than farming for adamantites, you can farm for mythrils in mission 2-5-3 hunting 2 mover ex, this mission map is very very small so getting to the boss is very fast, after which equip the brigand glove to enable a successful steal and every steal you will get 2 mythrils from a mover ex but they will give flare materia also, so in no time you can get 99 of it and you can fuse the 99 mythrils to obtain a +100 spirit for you materia result you desire.
i find it more easier to farm for mythrils than adamantites to fuse a +100 spirit materia as you already have close to 40 mythrils in your inventory by that time and farming for the rest will be more faster than farming for a total of 3 sets of adamantites.
with mag and spirit settled, leaving luck and vitality, you will need adamantites where hunting in mission 7-6-4 will be faster but you have to equip the mog amulet.
gysahl greens are more difficult to farm as they only dropped from cactuars and they are difficult to kill.
i have tried the above methods and are able to fused those materias which are exactly the same as Atma Xplorer with only my luck stats to flare and all these done in around 60 hours including finishing minerva for my first play.
hope the above info helps fellow gamers around.
here is another money earning tip…
in mission 7-6-4 where you are hunting for adamantites, you will encounter a genesis enforcer, it carrys a sickle and its movement is very slow, you can defeat it with 2 costly punch.
equip the mog amulet which you also need to get your adamantites from the drill machines and the genesis enforcer will give you force of nature when you steal or mug from them and kaiser knuckles when you defeat them, imagine the time spent hunting adamantites in this mission and encountering the genesis enforcer randomly, so adding this 2 drops you will get a lot of money in the end.
hope this info helps.
can someone please give me a hint about the locations of the items needed for materia fusion? i got a sample of each but i’ve already used them so i’m a bit worried if i can still find each of the items needed to do the tricks for stat modification.. thanks!!
why is it my hp doesn’t change even though i have the hp up+999% need help pls
first you must find the “adaman bangle..” i’m not sure where i found it but i got 2 of them.. i got 1 from a treasure chest and the other was a reward from a mission.. it sets the hp limit to 99999 when equipped..
There’s an even easier way to max materia, and it can be done mid-game! Simply unlock mission 6-3-5, and go in with Blaze Armlet, Safety Bit, and Mog’s Amulet.
Fight Boundfats and steal their Crystal Bracelets. 1 Crystal Bracelet fuses into 1 Spr+1, and they’re much much easier to kill than Adamntite holding enemies, plus they don’t do a whole lot of damage and will heal you with Firagas if you have Blaze Armlet. You have a 100% steal rate if you have Mog’s Amulet equipped. The Safety Bit is to protect you from the accompanying Demons’ Death spells.
Collect 99 Crystal Bracelets and you can get Spr+100 on a Curaga (Cure + Fire/Ice/Thunder/Cure + 99 Crystal Bracelets) then fuse that Curaga with your desired materia and add a stat item and voila! The Demons drop Darkness which can be converted for 6040 SP a pop, which should keep your fusing funds excessive. You can also sell them off to raise money for that Genji Helm.
Now go kill Minerva, and tell her Seraph sent you.
sry guys my info for getting adamantites and encountering the genesis enforcer is in mission 3-5-6 ‘The Last of the Genesis Troops’.
you can get a higher encounter of the crazy sword in this cave mission map.
just discovered something also…
you can get 2 adamantites from the crazy sword in the farming mission rather than the usual drop of 1 adamantite when you equip the Jeweled Ring accessory.
this way you can cut short the time to hunt for adamantites already.
oh yah you can also equip the Jeweled Ring when hunting for adamantites to receive 2 instead of the usual 1
hey try stealing from the boss while gathering adamantine.. it gives 2 pcs sp barrier which could be converted to 15k sp,, this makes hunting adamantine and sp at the same time easier since hunting 99 pcs adamantine = 99 pcs sp barrier and 99x 15010 = 1,485,990 sp.. so u can combine it already without hunting for sp from those movers..
does anyone know if theres a monster where you can get steal or mug dropped? im at lst boss done all other missions and accidentally sp converted my steals and mugs. now i cant get 99 pheonix downs!!! can ne1 help? i tried all the missions again so theyre not in any chests anymore
for steal materia you can get it from
Gremlin as a rare steal at missions 2-5-5, 6-6-4 and 9-4-3 so you have to equip mog amulet.
for mug materia you can get it from
Lesser Demon as a rare steal at missions 9-6-4 so mog amulet needed also.
both enemies are Hedgehog Pie class to let you identify them easily.
to fuse mug materia just use
Smart Consumer (Master) + Libra or
Steal + Electrocute
i would prefer you to fuse a mug materia since you can hunt steal materia easily.
hope the info helps…
where can i buy the genji helm? answer pls
hi im level 55 and im playing hard mode
is there any place recommended for me to train at to increase my level quickly?
I need help!!! I am level 46 and my hp is 9,999. I incresed the hp++ to 330% but my hp is still 9,999. What do I do?
@Geo
You need the Adaman Bangle to Break the HP limit
GUYS!!! YOU SHOULD EQUIP
JEWELED RING FOR FARMING SO DAT U GET 4 ADAMITES INSTEAD OF 2!!!!
:]
Sorry to bother again but i finally achieved hp + 999 materia, but my hp is only 40,000. What do I do? It hasnt increased,why?
What level are you? You current level is also a factor on your HP as well as other equipment.
Oh thanks for answering me! Ok my level is 53, My materia is quake, Hp+999, Hell Thundaga, Assault Twister+, Mug, and Curaga( they are all master). My accessories are carbon bangle, black belt, brigands gloves, and adaman bangle.
i noticed it was left out. there is 1 more piece of genji equipment. its the genji helm which is in the net shop shade. its cost is 1,000,000. and can only be bought once. if you leave and re enter the shop it will be goine. HOWEVER if your extreamy rich you can keep buying it over n over. to get 99 of them u will need 99 million gil. but its possible.i got this tip from Absolute Steves accessory guide.
@geo
just combine your HP +999% to Curaga (follow the guide above) and equip another one (HP+700% w/ let’s say your Hell Thundaga).. It’s either that you get equipments that compensate for it.
@dan
hmm.. thanks for the additional info
Hi, I have add 100 to all my states using the method taught above but my states are not 255, onli 161 (lvl 91 now). How do you guys get 255 before fighting Minerva? also what are the materia and items u guy equip? Also how do i add atates to steal? is there a way? Thanks alot all!
Thanks so much your a life saver. I’ll get to work on the hp+ 700% and let you know if it worked!
I dont get it. I keep fusing hp+999% with curaga but it still gives me hp+999% not curaga 999%. Same thing with Hell Thundaga. It gives me an entirely different materia. Im thinking its because there all master but im not the expert, you are. Im sorry to bother but im dying to get 99,999 hp so please help and thanks for your patience.
Hi, i just read your hp stat modifier and went on to try. Currently i am level 50, managed to get hp+ with hp +810%. i cant proceed further as my sp was not enough. So out of curiosity, i went to equip the hp+ 810%. but i realised my max hp is still at 9999. have i fused wrongly? pls advice
You need to have the Adaman Bangle accessory. Just look it up using CTRL + F. It’s on this post and on the comments.
Anyone can teach me how to get the material “Ultima”? Thx!
Ultima can be produced by combining Flare w/ any DMW materia.
Thx, sylv3rblade!
But how can I get Flare?
Thx again!
Flare materia can be stolen from Mover EX, but I think you need the Mog Amulet accessory to get it. Flare is also rewarded in some missions and found in some treasure boxes.
does 2 POWER SUIT is advisable? haha but my atk and vit goes up to 255 each.
well it’s up to you. But once you get Costly punch, having any addition to the atk stat is kinda useless since you automatically deal 99999 damage.
another adamantite fast farming idea
This is what i’ve equipped:
-Electrocute (almost mastered)
-two hp mod +999%
-Costly Punch +100% mag
-Dual cast
-genji armor (that one that needs to be bought at atrosious price tag)
-brutal (breaks attacks to 99999)
-Adamin bangle(breaks hp to 99999)
-mog amulet
Now same farming at the boss in mission 9-3-4
but use
Electro…..with that mag…..you just need to press it 3 times
I’ve seen each hit at 50k….maybe 5 of them .
: )
Thanks sylv3rblade, I have finally achieved hp 99,999. It took me a while cause I rested a few days and then got to work but i figured it out, and while I was at it I got costly punch, It freaken rocks!!! Thanks soo much for your help and I greatly appreciate it 🙂 And thanks to you brian also for helping, I used some of your tricks to so thanks!!
I did not finish reading threw all posts but as a quick time saver, instead of farming all of the stuff to make the + 100 mods or even the +999 hp mod ect. Steal 1 HP+ and then steal 99 pheonix down from mineva and combine with any low lv random (like fire ect) to make a HP+ 999%
then you can combine than with anything plus 1 mod item such as 1 Adamantite for a +100 Vit or a Mytrhil for +100 Spirit. So it can basicly be done in minutes instead of hours if your already that far in the missions.
it really sucks.. even i fight wid costly punch,magical punch, hammerpunch, iron fist. even it cause 99999 damage.. some of the monsters can hit you as hard as you do.. wew…
i only got genji helm. where can i find some of the genji? hahah .. magical pot? shops?
hey.. and also.. i only got 1 left at my dmw.. where can i find cactuar? hahaha. damn.. maybe i miss it..
Nightmarez can give an example
i seen this method in other guides but still cant figure it out when i tried it out
to tOpitz
to unlock cactuar mission in 10-1-1, you have to find and defeat the cactuar in mission 3-1-3
in 3-1-3, the mission boss is a genesis clone and the cactuar is at the back of the clone, so circle around it to the back and you will find it
I wrote a tool to calculate what Materia you can make with the materia that you have. Check it out here:
http://lisbakken.com/materia_maker/materia_maker.html
@Nightmarez
hmm.. I can’t seem to make a costly punch materia combine with an HP +999% materia
oh but wait, I’m filling up the stats for Minerva.
@ben
nice tool.
bro sylv3rblade try this to get a costly punch materia with hp+999%
step 1
fuse 2 lvl 1 DMW materias with a fat chocobo feather
result = lvl 1 libra with hp +40%
step 2
fuse the libra materia you got in step 1 with a normal lvl 1 libra materia and 99 phoenix downs
result = lvl 1 libra with hp+999%
final step
fuse a lvl 1 costly punch materia with the libra materia in step 2
result = lvl 1 costly punch with hp+999%
i tired this out personally and this is the result i got
try it out sylv3rblade and update if it works for you
Thanks for the tip, but I think it’ll be a while before I can update (or actually try the tip). I’m quite busy with work and managing my blogs.
no problem
will be here frequently to help out others
On a UK advert for the game I saw, it has Zack using octaslash from his list of commands next to attack item etc. It says Octaslash level 5. Is there a way you can do this in the game to get octaslash as a command ?! or do you need to complete the game to unlock it or something ?
No one believes me but I swear I saw it !
i came across it when i downloaded a save file from other gamers in gamefaqs
those DMW materias are in green like magic materias and once you equipped them and go into battle, it falls within the command slots and once you activate the materia, you will unleash the skill
but overall i dun think those DMW materias can be fused to become a useable command materia, if so it will be heaven and owning the game
what i believe is they are using cheat codes, other than those converted DMW materias, other items in the inventory are all 99 including ganji equips, DMW menu are all 9999 and all stats are 255 without the use of fused materias with stats bonuses
i tried those save files out of fun and this is what i found out
if there is really a way to fuse those DMW materias to be a command materia pls share
Hi, the HP UP + 999% is Brilliant!
currently play Hard mode and totally need this.
but how do i steal 99 pheonix down from mineva?
i mean, mineva where?
thanks!
minerva is in mission 9-6-6
you can just mug or steal the 99 phoenix down from it
missions are repeatable so just go in and steal the hell out of minerva
go to mission 1-3-2 and kill tigers with mog amulet on to farm ap+ and fuse them till you have a 999% ap+ then sp convert it, its the second fastest sp method only second to minerva
thanks man! but still a long way to go till i can go for 9-6-6.
playing hard mode, totally need this
by the way, i still haven’t unlock 7-X-X series mission, how do i unlock it? do i need to play till certain story line to unlock it?
dude, the tips you gave on mission 1-3-2 for 999% AP, i can convert it to HP +999%?
im not sure about unlocking stuff yet i havent done it all myself:) but i know that using ap+ to make hp999% is faster if you put two ap+ 20% together with 90 soma you get an ap with 120% fuse that with any % up and it adds 60% to it so its faster than the potions and hp+ also you probably get ap+’s about a hundred times faster than hp+’s :p but i noticed something, if you take and ap+ and an hp+ the one on top gets the bonus regardless of the lower ones stats
to unlock missions 7-1-1 to 7-1-6, you will need to talk to a soldier 3rd class in the shinra hq building briefing room in chapter 4
after finishing this first 6 missions, talk to him again to get an item for building your flower cart with areith in the later part of the game
for 7-2-1, it will be unlocked in chapter 5 of the game play and the rest is unlocked by just clearing missions onwards
there are many ways to fuse materias and i agree using hp+ with potions is tedious
you can try using hp+ fuse with elixirs, the increment effect is more bigger than potions
yeah, but what kind of good rpg lets you get anywhere without some grinding work? 🙂 hmm also im not sure if x-potions give a bigger increment than elixers, i’ll check that when i get home:) man its hard to get through them 9-x-x missions, dang lol im getting slaughtered with 99999 hp and 180 vit lol, hmmm where can you find a great malboro?
and one more thing. im almost certain that people that have the octaslash command are hackers haha. but that would seriously pwn if you could get one legally
totally agreed, if we can managed to fuse those DMW materias to be an ad hoc command materia, the game play is totally useless
final fantasy series is all about hard work and patience in order to archieve everything
for your info, great malboro is a mission boss in 9-6-4
x-potions also give a boost in hp% increment but its not as great as elixirs, i have compared the difference before when i started to fuse hp% materias
my process is more tedious, i fused my hp materias with elixirs, mastering them to get a higher %, then fuse with another mastered hp% materia to get a higher hp% effect and so on to get 999%
elixirs are rare in your 1st play but fusing 10 or even 20 elixirs you can see the effect already, if not just fuse with potions or even x-potions to the desired % you want then master them to get a higher % and fuse them altogether
missions 9-5-1 onwards you can expect them to be hard but can be done when you know how to tackle them carefully and just let your costly punch do all the work
but watch out for cactuars in 9-6-1, they normally deal 10k damage, but when they are defeated, they will cast 100k damage, if you cant manage to avoid this move, even with 99k hp you are a dead Zack, imagine you killed 2 of them at the same time, if you find you are not fast enough, equipped the Dash materia to move around more quickly to avoid
moreover to the end of 9-6-1, you will encounter 3 cactuars so remember to cast phoenix downs whenever you are dead if not the mission is practically over
hope it helps 🙂
yeah, i agree with you, if you come into this series unprepaired for the workload your looking at…. this game will eat your soul, but if you know what your doing the rewards are totally worth it. thanks by by the way for the info, and clarifying the x-potion thing, but im having trouble with the entire 9-x-x set in general, can you tell me how you tackled it? like what materia and items?
also, if your feeling up to it i need a list of where the summons are haha i need to complete my dmw
for missions 9-x-x, make sure you have costly punch and 99999hp
its also impt to have the genji shield, genji armour and genji gloves with you
next try to boost your stats with your fused materias
you can try to understand how the mobs move, attack then hit and avoid them tactically, if you dun feel confident, consume phoenix downs whenever possible
another way is try to avoid random encounters by hugging to the sides of the walls when you move, even having to travel longer channels, take note that you have to cover a lot of areas to get the reward chests and find the mission boss, when you reach those missions, you will understand what i meant
by the time i reached 9-5-1, my materias are all fused with the needed stats except for att, you dun require att since costly punch is more than enough to help you through
haha ok
ifrit – clear mission 8-1-1
bahamut – clear mission 8-1-4
bahamut fury – clear mission 8-5-6
odin – clear mission 8-1-6
phoenix – in chapter 9, talk to the boy who hangs around at the square
and select the option to do the mystery quest 1 then check the water tower
chocobo – chest in 8-4-1
cactuar – clear mission 10-1-3
tonberry – clear mission 10-2-3
cait sith – chest in 8-4-3
moggle – chest in 8-4-4
magic pot – most simple is to encounter them in mission 10-2-3, but beforehand equip Jump, Fira, Gravity, Assault Twister first and just use those commands when the magic pot require you to do so, when done, it will be your DMW
thats all
yeah wall hugging is mandatory, andbody that can beat all the missions with out it should give themselves a pat on the back hahaha but i made it to mission 9-5-1 without brutal, or ne dmg break haha, its about time i got it thogh, but where is the easiest one?
noooooooooooooooo i have to resart the game!!! i missed phoenix!!! :((((((((((((((
^
ouch
hey how can i deal 99999 to the magic pot after doing the costly punch when it asks for it?
what do you mean by easiest one???
then since you miss the phoenix materia, why not just rush thru and complete the game and start with a new game plus to save all your previous effort, i believe it will be faster also
then delita, you can just use costly punch again to deal the 99999 dmg to the magic pot
yeah im at the very last save point now, but i have a question, when you do the save after you beat the game thing do you start with the same materia, lvl etc…??
i mean the quickest one from the start of the game now lol
oh and btw i greatly appreciate the summon list brian
oh ok…. what store is it to where i can get the sephiroth dmw materia and the magic pot dmw materia?
oh and in mission 7-6-6 im having trouble finding the magic pot. is it even there?!?!?
all your materias, lvl, game time, gil, sp, dmw % stats and basic items and accessories in your inventory are carried forward when you start the new game plus
but you got to collect all the dmw items again thru missions including the keychain and backpack accessory
delita the octoslash materia can be bought at Research Dept. QMC + shop, it is found in a treasure chest in chapter 10 Gongaga Village, search the area thoroughly as the chest is quite hard to locate if not as you progress on, you will miss this chest permanently
the magic pot is quite hard to encounter, my encounter rates are also quite random but i find it more easier to encounter them when you start the mission and just walk up and down the long stretch above the starting point
hmm this post is no longer on the first page of google for “crisis core materia fusion”
I need to update and optimize it some more.
so its possible to have more than 4 item slots????
as long as it still has the same URL ^_^
nvm i see what your saying, so you dont start with four accessory slots or ne dmws besides angeal
lol the irst parts of the game are going to be a joke at lvl 90
guys im having trouble with mission 7-6-5. its the one before you fight minerva. i keep dying. plus can anyone show me how to get flare with mag+100?
first you have to get flare… haha then just use A dark matter and 99 phoenix downs
yap you dun start with all the perks at the start of the game, but you will still pawn with your lvl and stats
then delita you must have meant 9-6-5, why dun you fuse a +100 mag onto a ultima, its much more simple
process for fusing flare is much more complicated
if you still wanna fuse a +100 mag flare then transfer the +100 mag exaflare reward in mission 9-6-4, you shld have it since you already reach 9-6-5
try this, simply fuse the +100 mag exaflare materia you got in mission 9-6-4 with a libra materia
Libra + Exaflare +100 mag = libra lvl 1 +100 mag
then hope you have a mastered electrocute with you then fuse it with the libra you fused eariler on, with electrocute on top and the libra on the 2nd, then you can obtain a lvl 1 flare with + 100 mag materia
if you intend to fuse a ultima with + 100 mag then simply use the exaflare + 100 mag and fuse it with either tri fire, tri thundaga, electrocute, flare or energy
try to see if it works and update here
thks and hope it helps 🙂
Brian, you are a beast! it worked i got a flare that gives me a MAG+100! I need your help again….. i need to find a way to get an electrocute materia that gives me VIT+100. can you help? oh and im having trouble getting da Genji Armor also. i have the helm (cost 1mil), shield (magic pot finally got it!), gloves (treasure chest). got any tips on that also?
haha what a way to describe me
genji armour can be obtained when you got all 100% for your dmw stats, where summons and chocobo support dmw will be 100% upon summoning them once and all characters scenes seen to reach 100%, if you still have problems then equip the specific dmw materia for the one you are lacking
then to get a + 100 vit electrocute, you will need to do more work
my method of getting it is simply fusing libra and libra with 99 adamantites to get libra + 100 vit, yes that means you will have to hunt for 99 adamantites, you can refer to the earlier posts where i have describe where to hunt adamantites effectively
when you have done this, then fuse the libra + 100 vit with a tri fire materia and you will get a tri fire + 100 vit materia
then fuse a mastered tri thundaga with the tri fire above and you will get your + 100 vit electrocute
another way is if you have a mastered tri fire materia, then simply fuse the libra + 100 vit with the mastered tri fire materia and you will get the same result
try it and see if this works but i think you will spend some time 1st in collecting adamantites
if there are other methods. pls also share as this is the only method i know of
brian there is another method thats really easy and efficent. here it is:
Fuse a Libra lvl.1 with a dmw ( i used rebirth flame Mag+80 or zantenzuken Mag+60) and add some stat boost item that u have alot of (like i had alot of chocobo feathers so i put in 40 chocobo feathers and i got a Lvl.1 libra hp+999%) then fuse da following:
electrocute lvl.1+ Libra lvl.1 hp+999%+adamantite (1)= electrocute lvl.1 Vit+100.
thats how i did it and it worked. oh and i finally got everything in da game! i beat minerva and got 100% in mission progress. now all i need is that stupid genji armor but i dont think i will equip it cuz divine slayer is better but i want it anyways just so i can get everything in da game. im at lvl.89 and my stats are as follows:
ATK=215
VIT=255
MAG=255
SPR=255
LCK=196
my equipment is as follows:
Electrocute (M) VIT+100
Flare (M) MAG+100
Ultima (M) LCK+100
Curaga (M) HP+999%
Dispel Blade (M) HP+999%
Costly Punch (M) SPR+100
Divine Slayer
Ziedrich
Genji Glove
Genji Shield
gd for you, my methods are always the longer ones
and thks to you that i finally figured out how to fuse +100 stats to materias using the hp+999% method
and the genji armor might not be useful once you have the divine slayer but it helps to break the hp limit and gives the bonus of auto regen and endure when you did not have the divine slayer in the 1st place which is better than the adaman bangle
no problem. theres just one more thing that you might wanna add. theres a shop that i dont think you guys have mentioned yet. its called gongaga trading. i think its given as a reward for mission 2-2-5. if not its one of those
oh and whats a good mission to where i can get my roulette bar to activate faster?
ok i have a HUGE problem now…… i cant seem to get cloud to move up from 90% DMW to 100% DMW even when i meteor shot. plus genesis is only at 55%. everything else is 100%. got any tips?
yes! this page is back on the 2nd slot of Google Search Results. Right below Gamefaqs.. I wonder what it would take to get me on top hmm..
when i train my materias, i will go to mission 1-1-6, this is a long mission where you need to defeat 1000 shinra soldiers
so if you want just go into this mission and equip the respective dmw materia to help in activating the limit break for the one you are missing
activating the limit break does not mean anything, you will need to see the flashback scenes for the character when you are in modulating phase, just take note some scenes you might have gone thru does not count so when you finally seen something different then thats where you will see the % increment in your dmw stats
i took quite long for my cloud to reach 100% after the 90% mark, you just left 1 last scene to be seen for cloud to reach 100%
the same goes to genesis, after 55%, the final scene you see will let you attain 100% for genesis already
go try it out delita
the easiest way to train materias for me is go to the mission where you fight ifrit for the last time, where hes the most powerful, then equip the wizard bracelet and a shinra beta+ and the adaman bangle n whatever else you want, then just go into the mission and set your psp down for the rest of the day, make sure it has sleep mode turned off tho, the only way ifrit will die is dmws so its pretty sure fire, i mastered them all in two nights without playing;)
ummm well u see i have this problem brian. well i beat da game already and i dont have a memory stick so when its on da credits i put it on hold until i get a memory stick. lol but i will try it. got any other tips before i start da game all over?
you dun have a memory stick all along…
then how do you save in between???
wild guess but, he keeps his Crisis Core on all the time. No game overs to worry about so it’s possible.
ok so you all have it wrong.
My stats are as follows:
hp 99999
mp 744
ap 776
Atk 255
Vit 255
mag 255
spr 255
lck 96
with this equpment:
energy (lv2) mag+100
quake (master) spr+100
hell firaga (master) vit+100
curaga (master) hp+999%
assault twister+ (master) atk+100
costly punch (master) hp+999%
Divine slayer
ziedrich
genji shield
geji glove
And i did that without faming. The trick is to get to minerva and steal 99xPhoenixDowns and then sell them all. Do that 10 times or so and then buy as many dualcasts from network shop shade as you can. You should be able to get 99 of the dualcast materia, so now convert all of it into sp. This works like a charm. I have 45426070 sp. The cool thing is you can keep doing this trick.
Now the catch.
Getting to minerva is tough. So I reccomend costly punch so you can do major damage, quake and he’ll firaga so you can damage more than on enemy at a
time. Make sure your atk and mag and hp is as high as you can get it.
Another trick i found out:
to level up zack and your materia go to mission 1-1-6. Fight 1000 shinra troops. If you equipt the moogle materia and you have moogle in you DMW then if you land on moogle, your materia could potentialy gt mastered. This trick is also good for getting 100% DMW. Once you get them all you need to see the video right? So mix it up a bit with the DMW materia untill you get it.
Oh yeah!! Once you do the whole minerva thinger and get lots of sp, steal 99 more phoenix downs. Pick 1 materia and the second can be any DMW. The item sould be 99 phoenix downs but you need to make sure materia 1 is materia lv.x hp+x%. Then once you fuze it, it will become materia lv.x hp+999%. Then once you have that you can fuze the new materia with another DMW and one hero drink to get materia lv.x +atk100 . This wont work with every materia but there are ways around that.
and you dont have to use a hero drink. You could use:
darkmatter
lunar harp
zeio nut
mythril
adamantite
gysahl greens
All will have the same effect. A maxed out materia 🙂
finally guys im back up to snuff, and i actually got all the dmws this time lol, im not sure about unlocking all the missions tho, i think i may have missed a few, oh well i can always restart again hahaha, but im going to beat minerva without 99999 damage haha wish me luck, but she has abut 20000000 life, so i might be here for a while, but do you guys thing there are any builds that are as strong or stronger than the costly punch set up?? and writing posts to help people get money and sp after they unlocked minerva is freakin useless, after you can get 99 phoenix downs in like 30 seconds you dont need tips to get money and sp haha
hi.. why my hp 9999 only? how do you guys make it 50K? do i have to make my curaga hp+999% then i can? cuz my curaga only add 220%hp. but with my lvl 55 character.. i think i should have more than 15k hp…
nvm… i get it already… lols
gd luck to you in defeating minerva without costly punch
for me i think i will fuse a +100 att materia to hack and slash minerva but the battle will be long cause minerva has high stats also not forgetting hp
then go in with a max vitality and spirit 255 Zack not forgeting equips that give you auto barrier and m-barrier like the protect ring
hope you can dogde minerva magical attacks as they are all possible to evade even to her ultima spell
how to unlock 10-2-3?=((((
hi all i miss the phoenix materia in chapter 9 now i hae to find new clothes for cloud can i still get that materia or its over ?
try and see if you still have free movement to the town area in Nibelheim, if so talk to the boy hanging around the square to trigger the 7 wonder quest
if you managed to do the above, proceed to the water tower to get your phoenix materia, if you cant get to this part, then phoenix will not be available anymore till you start a new game plus
i did it last night, i had sp master and 200000000 sp lol, it took 4 hours of hacking lol but with wall n sp master and 99 phoenix downs its not hard at all, just lengthy
congrats to you
you really got the patience to hack and slash for 4 hrs at minerva
If he’s finding new clothes for cloud then its after Sephy burned the town, and after that i’m 99% positive the town is empty
ok so i missed the phoenix invoc one more question how can i have full cure materia is there a fusion way ?
there is no way of fusing a full cure materia
you can get one from the magic pot in mission 7-6-6, but it is only obtainable after you got your genji shield from it
1st try – genji shield
2nd try – impervious
3rd try – full cure materia
i got my full cure materia this way
another way is a rare steal from the mission boss in 9-6-5, remember it must be a rare steal so equip the mogs amulet if not the normal steal is adamantite
hey, im fairly new to this kind of game, and im trying to find brutal. All that has been said so far is how to find adaman bangle, but i need brutal in order to do 99999 dmg correct? Which mission treasure chest or reward is it?
where you can get brutal item
mission reward in 7-4-6, 9-5-1
treasure chest in 9-6-3
rare steal from crazy sword in missions 3-5-6, 7-6-4 and 9-4-1
thats about it
thnx
and also do you know where mogs amulet can be found? is it a one time find? or can i get more than one?
mog amulet can be found in mission 7-6-4 as a mission reward
alternative to this it can be bought in sector 7 shop where this shop is found in a treasure chest in mission 4-4-3
People really need to learn to use Ctrl + F. The informations all there.
Anyway, you guys may want to check my latest post. Diablo 3 is official.
has anyone tried dualcast with energy? I dont have energy yet, but im wondering if that would work.
rys: just tried it for you. It works 🙂
Cheers!
Lucianos last blog post..Vuelto a volver
thnx- how much dmg did it do? is it worth it?
when u use costly punch does it take away from your health cause i read on some other guide that it did
and if it does how much
yes when you use costly punch it does deplete your hp by a bit but that bit is not noticeable when your hp is 99999 and the regen effect from the genji armor
Just want to say a big thanks for this guide.
Found it really helpful and easy to use.
When I finished chapter 5, I start doing heaps of the mission and trying to max my stats and beat Minerva.
I did that last night, with my stat VIT and SPR at 255, 17mil SP with SP Barrier x2 and SP Master (total of level 5), and Costly Punch.
Didnt take too long at all, was left with 5-6mil SP and only used 3-4 Phoenix Downs.
Anyway thanks for the guide again, cos I wouldnt have gotten far without it.
i missed the pheonix dmw can i still get genji armor if i get 100% on all the other dmws?
no you cant, you will need all the respective dmws to be unlocked and attained 100% for them in order to get your genji armor
Very nice guide and follow all instructions.
Im new to Crisis Core but old FF player.
So my question is I already hunt all items needed for HP+999% and fuse it to Curaga so the result is Curaga HP+999% but when I equip it my Hp is only 9999 not 99999. anyone answer please and thanks in advance.
got my answer to my question it needs adaman bangle or genji armor wooh…
another problem I equipped adaman bangle and my hp is only 37135 not 99999 anyone answer??? and how do I make my smart consumer with hp+ not ap+.
yah equipping the adaman bangle enables you to break your hp limit
then to fuse a smart consumer with hp+999% you can try this
to get smart consumer you need a steal materia and a dash materia
if you have access to minerva then do the below option
fuse 2 libras materias with a fat chocobo feather and you will get a libra with hp+40%
then fuse the above libra with another libra and throw in 99 phoenix downs to get libra with hp+999%
and finally fuse the steal materia with the libra +999% hp to get your smart consumer +999% hp
if you not do have ebough sp for fusing then refer to the other posts in this website to get info on how to get more sp
another question?
where or what part can I see Minerva?
is it on Missions or story
you can only see minerva in mission 9-6-6, the other part where you see her is when you have defeated genesis at the end of the game and you watch the ending
hey can any one please help?
ive got HP+ 999%
but when i fuse it with costly punch
ie HP+999% + Costly Punch = HP ++ 999%
how come its not Costly Punch 999%HP???
any help would be much grautful!
thanks
costly punch materia with added stats cant be fused this way
pls refer to page 2 of this website to get the info on how to fuse a costly punch with hp+999%
grrr Its been 2 days since I hunted magic pot on 7-6-6 mission and my problem is about octaslash (sephiroths dmw) is there other way I can use sep’s dmw?
I read some post and they have octaslash materia where can I get those?
thanks
About 7-6-6 mission Magic pot I’ve been hunting him for about 2 days now and my problem is how do I improve the chance of Octaslash (Sephiroth’s DMW).
I’ve read some comments and they have octaslash materia where can I buy or hunt them? Thanks.

octoslash materia can be bought at Research Dept. QMC + shop, this shop is found in a treasure chest in chapter 10 of the game play, search the area carefully as the chest is quite well concealed cause if you miss it then thats it
is genji’s glove really on mission 9-6-3 cause I search the area 3 times and found nothing?
never mind its on mission 9-6-4
Hey guys, quick tip on way easier + 999% HP status. Simply buy the HP Ups from the shop, as well as 80 X – potions. Combine two HP ups and 80 X potions, way higher percentage, way less time. For those who have the Minerva mission unlocked, simply steal the 99 phoenix downs, get the two Hp ups, and fuse 80 phoenix downs with the hp ups, that’s 810 percent right there. Hope it helps!
@brian
dude Im already on last save point of the game where I will fight the 3 last boss.
My problem again is I still have locked missions how do I unlocked them?
Im already 92% mission complete and have access to minerva (but I still not defeat it).
some missions will automatically unlocked when you complete and progress into another chapter but there are some missions that need to be unlocked during the gameplay itself, like talking to npcs or activating a particular scenario in order to unlock the mission and carry on with the other missions
for example
in chapter 6, did you walk around loveless avenue and talk to certain npcs to activate the mini game of catching the wutai spies to unlock missions 4-3-1 to 4-3-6
since you have come to the end of the game already there is no way to unlock other missions that were supposed to be done during the gameplay as the final chance where you are able to unlock all missions successfully is during chapter 8 or earlier
all you can do now is to complete the game and save with a new game + and go thru everything in your new gameplay and do all the missions again and try to unlock every missions the next time round
ow gosh. I need to repeat it again damn.
Finally defeat minerva in 30 mins just easy.
I got all genji equips and divine slayer.
got another question when I save it and continue to new game+ will my equips and level are retain?
yap your lvl, game time, sp, gil and equips will be carried over but with the exception of dmw materias and key items like backpack and etc
great guide.
keep making.
AAAA..where i can find Apocalypse DMW materia….help!!!???
apocalypse materia can only be bought in Net Shop Shade which is a treasure chest found in mission 9-5-4
but be careful as this shop sells genji helmet also so make sure you have more than 1 million gil when you access this shop if not when you just go in to purchase the materia itself the next round in the genji helm cant be bought
how to combine heal firaga on crisis core final fantasy 7 on psp
i think you meant hell firaga right??
to get hell firaga fuse a mastered firaga materia with a mastered poison materia
or you can fuse a dark fire materia with any dmw materias
then to get dark fire just simply fuse fire materia with poison materia or fire materia with esuna materia
hey uhh can someone help me i cant unlock the tonberry missions and 4-3-1 thru 4-3-6. thnx
nvm i just answered my own question but still cant figure out tonberry misson
to get to tonberry mission in 10-2-1, you will have to go thru mission 6-1-5 where in this mission you will need to walk around and search for the tonberry in the area, defeat it and then you will unlock mission 10-2-1
um… newbie here how do get to have the chance to use 4 accesories?!?!?!
As you progress through the game, you get access to more accessory slots

where i can get the Genji Set??
how to make Quake and Electrocute Materia?? what materia should i fuse??
HELP ME PLS!!! ?
how to get the divine slayer can anyone let me know Thank You
Kill minerva
how can i have phoenix down easily (without stealing from minerva)?
(you said i need 99 pheonix downs for libra hp999%)
repeat the game over and over using New Game+ and you’ll get there. It’s much simpler to just get to Minerva
how do i get 100% on dmw
if you fuse a normal hp up with an hp up+ and elixirs, you get %10 added per elixir.
I accidently combined my steal materia and saved the game. now, i dont know where to get a new steal materia… is there anyone here who can help me?
@lostpinoy:
Contacts from P
– Mission 7-4-1: First Contact
sad, after getting most of the things for so long, Zack dies despite i got gazillion pheonix down or 99,999hp or 100 any stats… sad game for a replay
haiz.. dissappoint on the game ending ! why zack should die i thought when i train hard make my stat to max n have 99 phoenix down i wont die easy but i din expect that zack will be kill by three shinra soilder haizz just like that. if i know the ending will be like that then i wont waste 102 hour playing for this kind of ending. : (
euh…
i made a hp++ 999% as you told us, but if i combine it with costly punch it becomes the same hp++999%
help me plz
I have a slightly different way of farming cash. Equip Mog’s Amulet and farm Tonberries so on top of the gil they drop, you get 1 x Power Wrist each kill. I could easily made 1,000,000 gil in an hour.
Aens last blog post..“I’m coming back.” Lance Armstrong’s Inspirational Message
@james: costly punch can only be created with a very limited set of materia. In example, costly punch + goblin punch = costly punch. You can use the HP + 999% you’ve created on other materias like Ultima though.
@psp_coyo: errr.. it’s not the ending that made the game for me, but rather Zack’s character development. The ending should’ve been known to you if you played FF VII or are familiar with it.
@sylv3rblade
i already have cotsly punch (iron fist+DMW), but i can’t combine hp++999% with costly punch because it becomes the same hp ++ 999%
what do i have to do to have a curaga +hp999% ?!
@james: once the materia you have is already costly punch, you can’t combine it with hp+ even if it’s master. You have to combine it with 99 Phoenix Downs or 99 Fat Chocobo Feather to make it Costly Punch w/ HP+ 999%
on curaga, if I remember correctly, you can use HP+ 999% and add it to a mastered Curaga Materia to for Curaga + HP 999%
ty for the info, but i can’t make it because
hp++999% + curaga (master)= hp++999%
:'(
@james: if it’s HP++
try this:
HP++ (+999%HP) + Hell Firaga = Status Ward (+999%HP)
Status Ward (+999%HP) + Curaga = Curaga (+999%HP)
thank you!!!!!
never thought you could combine it like that 😀
smart move!
How do u get hp++999%?
read the guide
why my costly punch only 9999 damage i got 50k life
@Peter: you have to have Brutal equipped to do more than 9999 damage. And you need another HP+ 999% materia
Thanks sylv3rblade !! I got it now..
@ylv3rblade
the hp up + monsters also appears in 4-4-2 as a boss and 4-4-3 as boss and monster, if you complpete the last one you also get 5Xadamantine ^^
!!!!!! I’m at Minerva with all genji’s (except the one you can only with magic pot, but I have protect ring) and costly punch, my hp is maxed out . My problem is with judgment arrow, as it takes away my all my 99,999 hp and negates my reraise, so I’m just left dead. I thought my only other option is to work on maxing out things like spr, lck, and so forth, but I read that judgment arrow isn’t suppose to take away all my hp. Not bad for a chick, right? LOl, can anyone offer some advice, it is much appreciated!!!!!
devibutterfly
you need to be in “guard” stance to survive the judgement arrow attack.
Make sure u hv > 65k HP all the time, u’ll be fine.
lun
I didn’t think you could guard when something does a special like that, but I tried in anyway and doesn’t work. =(
@devibutterfly: what’s your SPR stat count?
Yeah, my stats pretty much suck and that’s what I thought it would come to.
atk-65, vit-197, mag-142, spr-101, lck-46
but is it really that bad though?
If it is I’ve read enough of this site to know how to raise ’em, thanks to you! =P
@devibutterfly:
raise spr to 200+ and vit to max (250). Judgement arrow is unblockable last I checked but it’s a physical attack. Also be sure to have the Genji Shield equipped or at least Protect Ring.
Thanks!!!!! My family freaked when I beat minerva and i screamed. Couldn’t have done it w/o this site!!!!!!!!
Thanks for this guide, I am on my way getting HP+999. However, I have a question. When I get that 130%, should I fuse that with another 130%? Or with a 100%, 70% or 20% ?
Hey mate there is a much easier way. You can just steal 99 phoenix down from minerva like forever and fuse them with HP up for HP+999%. Then you can turn this hp to vit +100. And so on and so on. I didnt try with the other stats but i think it can be done. And maybe the trick so that costly punch or any other skill can become the “Costly punch *stat* +100” can be done too. Also you can sell the phoenix downs and buy materia to convert for huge amounts of sp.
@Sashi_Buridana!!!:
but you still have to reach minerva…
Its not that hard. I had genji shield, brutal, adaman bangle, Costly punch and an HP+ 800% to get there. Once you have that try to go to minerva (there are some tricky missions though along the way) I had 3 octaslash materia the two mastered and the third level 4 to get genji shield but you can do it without that too. Now i am in the proccess to master jack ^^ kave 3/4 genji and i am waiting for the armor. At DMW only cloud and Tseng at 80%. Wish me luck ^^ My point is that when i saw the crazy builds on the internet i thought i was too difficult to do it. But its not that hard afterall. So give it a try ^^
@Sashi_Buridana!!!:
*facepalms*
you didn’t get the point of the guide. It was supposed to help you get to Minerva THEN steal phoenix downs to easily max out your other stats.
Well after lots of farming and stuff, I’ve gotten Genji Shield and Armor, Brutal, Curaga HP+999%, Costly Punch HP+999% and Quake VIT+100. Gonna try to get up to 9-6-6 now, currently on the 9-4-x. And I’m level 63, should I be able to past the missions?
@renwickftw:
with Genji Shield you may get across but I recommend another materia that has +100 SPR or another +100 Vit
I just killed Minerva, took me about 20-25 mins, using up 2M of SP. If it wasnt for this guide, I definitely wouldnt have killed the hardest boss in the game. Thanks man!
@renwickftw:
glad to be of help.
Please look forward to future guides that I’ll be posting ^_^
I have one fusion quesiton. I have a Graviga and Smart Consumer, that have a maxed stat on them. Is there anyway to change the type of stat (atk, vit, mag, spr, lck) while keeping the materia?
how do u get smart consumer w/HP+%?
I’ve found a much easier and time saving way of farming. In mission 7-6-6 The determined recruiter you fight Lesser Worms, if you have mogs amulet equipped they each drop a Dark Matter and you always fight 3 at a time, just got 99 Dark Matters in less than an hour. Then fuse with your materia and change to what you want (Adamatite for VIT etc). Hope this helps people, great guide BTW, been very useful.
Also, just incase people know this already but when gathering SP killing movers you get 8000SP for defeating the mover. However if you kill the enemy with the mover first then kill the mover this becomes 8000SP x 2, same if there are 2 other enemies with the mover but 8000SP x 3.
how can i get genji armor if i don’t have all DMW’s?
(pheonix is missing)
@james:
If you’ve already passed the part of the story in Nifelheim then you have to finish the game and continue with New Game+.
You CAN’T get Genji Armor if you don’t have all the DMW’s at 100%
i seem to have some trouble
i checjed every treasure chest in 9-6-3
and can’t find a genji shield…
@james:
err..
genji shield can be obtained by defeating a magic pot o.O
To defeat Magic Pot, just do the skills he’s asking.
err, sorry
i mean genji GLOVES
i can’t found the genjji gloves
@james:
Location: Treasure Chest in 9-6-4
sorry.. I didn’t realize the typo.
i found out the easiest way get the stat raisers, first go to 663 the don *pervert* corneo, equip mogs and the thing that doubles items dropped, usually 3 worms come out during each encounter, that way u get 6x dark matter in 1 fight!!
there are movers here too, so 663 is the best place for sp gathering and dark matter farming, hope this helps!! 😀
i got my HP UP ++ 999% and i’m at level 89. But only with 67467 HP, why so 🙁
@boo:
err you need 2 of them to get 99999 HP
means i need to take up 2 materia slots??
@boo:
yep.. then you combine it with costly punch (or any other materia you want) to make Costly Punch +HP 999%
alright, thanks sylv3r 🙂
does anyone know how to kill those bastard in mission 9-6-5?
they suck your mp and ap to zero meaning i’m dead in an instant becuz i can’t heal or dodge…
wer i can find steal materia or what materia’s i can fuse 2 get steal materia..
I got HP++ to 999% but when i fuse with curaga it doesn’t become curaga 999%
Does it have to be HP+?
Hi there.
I have Mug MASTER AP+100%. And I want to make it have +100 VIT, but everytime I try to fuse it with something else it gives me Gill Toss which I don’t want.
Know any tips for this?
@MrStick:
fuse it with another AP+ AND Adamantite
Sylv3r, if I fuse Mug Master AP+100% with a DMW AP+ or Steal AP+ with Adamantites, it still gives me Gill Toss.
ah my bad.. I didn’t read it at first as Mug.. I thought it was AP Up+
sadly you can’t because Mug can only be created via:
Mug : Smart Consumer (M) + Libra or any Materia with a grade that is less than or equal to 4.
Mug: Steal + Electrocute
i have adaman bangle already, do i have to fuse it with something? because i dont want to waste accessory slots by equipping it all the time. im using curaga +850% hp btw.
Oh I see.
I did some research and came across the ‘degrading materia’ method. But its a bit long. I could’ve done it, but unfortunately, my other ‘Mug’ materias just dissapeared!!! I don’t know if I ‘accidently’ used them to fuse, or SP Convert!!!
But I think creating another one will be easer, but where do I get more ‘Smart Consumers? I only have 1.
Thanks for the help
AARGGH!!! I’m so annoyyed!!!
I did the Magic Pot mission again to get Full Cure. After 30 minutes of my DMW finally getting Sephiroth, I end up getting another Genji Shield as I had it already equipped!!! And now after another 45 minutes, I never got Sephiroth DWM after like 10 encounters with the Magic pot, even though I have 2 Sephiroth DMW materias equipped. Seems like it doesn’t make a difference to me having it or not!!!!!
@MrStick:
you can check out page 3 of the guide for the list of materia fusion formulas. On getting magic pot yeah, it’s really frustrating. I spend a whole week before getting it to work.
Aaah no worries. lol, I managed to create a Smart Consumer and a new Mug, and now I have Mug lvl 1 VIT+100. I managed to get SPR+100, MAG+100, LCK+100 and ATK+100 on my materias. and Have HP+999% on like 7 or 8 different materias, where I can easily change them to LCK, ATK, VIT, SPR or MAG.
I have Genji Shield, Glove, Armor and Ziedrich on. My stats are:
Level 85
99,999HP
ATK 164
VIT 255
MAG 255
SPR 255
LCK 146
But I want to increase my LCK, how do I do that? I heard its best to have LCK 155+ for Minerva.
And thanks again or the help/tips. Oh and I left Magic Pot for now. Going to concentrate on Minerva XD. But blimey, a week!! I managed to get the Genji Shield first time without THAT much trouble, but it took the right mick the second time. I didn’t want another Genji Shield!!!! ARGH! lol
skedoodle. Sorry didn’t see your comment there.
First of all, you have to clarify what your asking about.
Why do you want to fuse your Adaman Bangle with something?
What exactly do you want to know/ask?
@ mr stick
adaman bangle cant be fused with other materia? i have it equipped right now and im using curaga +999% hp. I wanna know if you still get the hp break effect if its fused with other materia. i dont wanna waste accesory slots by equipping it all the time 😛
i just started chapter 6 and im level 55, im using curaga(master) +hp999%, electrocute (leveling it up so i can make ultima) , mug(master) +ap250%, wall (master)mag +8, vit up + (level 1), atk up +24 (master)
is this any good?
@Skidoodle
You can not transfer accessory stats to materia, unfortunately. Therefore, it won’t make a difference if you fuse it, it will just be wasted. Also, in missions Mission 2-5-2 and Mission 3-5-4 you can get Ultima. And, you don’t need Electrocute to get Ultima. Flare and Energy will do perfectly fine. That’s how I made my Ultima.
With regards to your materia. Thats pretty decent for the point where you are. But personally, I believe Tri-Thunder, or Hell Thundaga is better than Electrocute as its more accurate. But that depends on you and if you have them.
What other accessories do you have equipped?
Oh by the way Sylv3r. I’m alright now. Don’t need to help. Also, why does everyone panic when it comes to Minerva?
minerva’s really easy just keep on using pheonix downs and costly punch and you’ll be just fine
I know. I’ve already beaten her and gotten the Divine Slayer and the Heike Soul. It was easy. I only used like 8 or 9 phoenix down, 2 or 3 elixers, 2 ethers and somas, and like roughly less than 20 curagas and defeated her easily. Was quite suprised. XD
Now, just have to finish the game again (finished it 3 times, but didn’t save lol), get minerva again on Hard and defeat her when she has 20mil HP!!!! wowzers!
@mr stick
im currenty using adaman bangle, brutal, shinra beta + and either mog’s amulet, ribbon, safety bit, wizard armlet depending on the mission/ situation.
i just got costly punch the other day.
my hp is only 54k+ and im using a combo of curaga +999%hp and hp up + level 3 +280%. what should i add so that my hp can go to 99,999?
I see. Well thats a good combo for the accessories. To get your HP to 99,999, the ideal thing is to have 2 materias that have HP+999%. But even if YOU have that, you won’t have 99,999 as your at level 55 your HP is around 4,000. Thus, your HP can only get to 80,000 MAX at the moment. Once you get to Level 70ish, you should have 5,000, which will then give you 99,999hp. Also, in my advice, dont concentrate too much on Mag,Atk, Vit and Spr Up’s. I think its a waste of time leveling them up. Sure you can level up one of each ++ Ups. but not the regular ones. If your thinking why and that you need it to get your materia to +100 whatever. well, there is a better way. How? Using Phoenix downs. Fuse the desired materia to another materia which will give you the same result i.e.
Quake with Dash, will give you Quake. Therefore, Fuse them together along with 1 Fat Chocobo Feather. This will make the Quake become Quake Lvl 1 hp+10% or more, depending what ‘Mag+’ it already has. After that, Fuse the new Quake with another Dash/Libra/Quake with 98 Phoenix Downs (or less, depending on how much hp+% it is at), and it will give you Quake Hp+999%. After that, simple fuse it again with another materia along with Adamantite, Gyshal Green, Mythril, Hero Drink or whatever to get your desired 100+. Where can you get 99 Phoenix downs? When you unlock the Minerva mission! Just steal it from that thing! XD [Have Mug and Brigand’s Glove equipped, mug her, then die, and wala!]
Oh and also, try not to Master every materia like I tried to do!!! Because some materia, that you will be using again minerva or whatever, you may need to add +100 to it, but you won’t be able to get the same materia when fusing as its Mastered. For example, Mug, once its mastered and you want it to have Vit +100, and fuse it with dash or something, you will always end up with Gill Toss. You can get around this, by degrading your materia, but its a long and confusing method. Therefore, keep atleast 1 mug lvl4 or below.
Hope that helps
thanks. very useful info. im currently finishing most of the missions so that i can unlock mission 9-3-4 so i can start stat modifying. so what materia would be good with the +999% hp modifier? is costly punch good?
btw, how should i know which items to sell and which materia to sp convert, besides those that can be bought from shops? i currently have a lot of extra junk in my inventory because of all the missions ive been doing.
Your welcome :). Glad it helped.
Well, yes, that is a good choice, as its a main materia to use against Minerva. Two materias that I believe you should equip with HP+999% are Curaga and Costly Punch. I, however, had several other materia with HP+999% or Vit+100, as I didn’t need the one that I already had against minerva. Quake is a really good Materia as well as Flare. Flare is more quicker than Ultima, but Ultima is generally more powerful (from what I have gathered).
Hmmm, quite a lengthy discussion. come to http://www.tehgreat5.chatango.com and we can discuss things there (when we’re both on at the same time :P)
hmmkay, i checked your site and you weren’t there haha. so my costly punch is level 2 right now (atk +2 i think), i should fuse it with which materia to ensure that i’ll get costly punch +999% hp?
i just finished unlocking mission 9-3-4, cant wait to get started on stat modifying! :))
i also got energy and flare. so next materia to master should be ultima?
Aah sorry. I was out at that time. We live in different time zones (UK for me). Sorry about that.
But yeah, I have 8 Ultimas, of which 1 was created (fusion), along with 8 Energys, 7 Flares and 5 Electorcutes and 2 Costly Punches (can have more if I want, and also, I finished all missions). So hopefully, you should end up with something like that.
Well, I can’t remember what exactly I fused it with, I think it was Libra or Dash. But hey, while your reading this go back to the site I sent you.
okay okay. i already made ultima and currently in the process of mastering it. im just doing adamantine farming right now, too lazy to continue with the story.
got lots of extra materia lying around, should i just convert them to sp?
also does the stat modifier trick work for fat chocobo feather as well?
Oh I see. Convert? Well, depends on what materia they are and how many of them you have.
Like I said, you don’t have to do farming for things like that.Once you get Minerva, everything is more than jolly good.
Fat Chocobo Feathers play an important role in Stat Modifying. Using it along with the desired materia, you’ll change its effect to ‘+HP??%’. Once you have that, fuse the new materia again, using 99 phoenix downs (if the materia has 200%, you can use 80p hoenix downs). That will give you 999%, and then fuse once more along with an Adamantine to get SPR or whatever!
Farming for them is more effort and time consuming
If you want, try to get a materia with +100 ATK (you should have Vital Slash or something with +65 ATK) it will be usefull against the level 9 mission to get to minerva. Also, once you’ve done 9-5-6. You’ll get Ziedrich, which is reaally good. Boosts up most of your stats. By the way, try getting the Genji Shield I think from Majic Pot in Mission 7-6-6. But it will ask for ‘Gil Toss’, ‘Costly Punch’, ‘99,999 damage’ and ‘Octoslash’. So you still have quite a bit to go until you get to there, but just thought of letting you know before hand
oh. im in the process of finishing all the missions in 9-4. but i keep dying :))
im using:
curaga master +999%hp
costly punch master +999%hp
mug master +350%ap
and either flare, ultima, wall, zantetsuken, tri thundaga.
just got to level 72 yesterday.
i already finished the missions under 4,6,7,and 8.
im really irritated coz i cant get the dmw to octaslash :)) very frustrating. i hear it will take you like 25 or so hours? =))
Ohhh I see. I know how you feel. I been through it. I’m at level 89, just finished the game AGAIN for the 5th time and this time I’m saving it lol!.
Also, I know about the Magic Pot. I spent hours on it. I wanted Full Cure. I managed to get Octaslash, 3 times succesfully (took me 3 hours or so) but I didn’t get Full Cure, got another Genji Shield and then the 2 other times got Impervious twice -_- which took the pi** a lot!!! ARGH!! so I just couldn’t be bothered and finished the game.
I also beat Minerva again for the fun of it lol
When I tried it I had 4 Octaslashes (3 mastered with 1 at level 2, which gave me Octaslash x22) Costly Punch and Gil Toss XD
how can i get ‘99,999 damage’ for magic pot in 7-6-6?
@noob:
just hit magic pot if you have costly punch dealing 99,999 already with brutal equipped
Just found that if you steal from the main boss in 4-4-4 with mog’s amulet and brigand’s gloves on you get a Goblin Punch. I did it twice in a row.
um how can i find heiki soul????
uhh how can i defeat mako ifrit?????
the hellfire’s powerful than expected
anyone help????
@Noob. Make sure you attack is over 100 first. And as Sylv3r said, use Brutal along with Costly Punch to deliver 99,999 damage. BUT make sure your HP is not at break. Otherwise it won’t work.
@SafeCloud.
Aah yes that is a way to get the Goblin Punch. Also you get it in a mission later on. Another way is, when you go to Zacks hometome, before fighting Dr.Hollander, theres a part where you come to waterfall. after having a few battles there, you can play a mini game. Do very good in the mini-game, or something like that, and you’ll get Goblin Punch. I actually missed this part XD
@Ziedrich
Regarding the Heike Soul, you can only get it once you defeat Minerva. Yes, Minerva, and also complete every mission = have 100%.
Now on to defeating Mako Ifrit, make sure you have atleast 80,000hp. This is to make it easier for you. And also, boost up your MAG and VIT to around 200 if you can. Using Hell Blizzaga or something against Mako Ifrit should do big damage. Heal yourself regularly. I think I beat him with normal attacks. I had the Zeidrich equipped which boosted my stats a lot. Make sure you have that XD.
Hope that helps
thx!!!!!

they give 20000sp
help!!!
i can’t defeat minerva!!!!
judgement arrow cancels my reraise status!!!and killss meeee
can sum1 help???
Zeidrich.
At mission 7-6-6, the first time you get the Genji Shield. If you equip it, the second time you will get Genji Shield. The third time you might get Impervious or Full Cure. For me, I got Genji Shield for the first 2 times, and then the 3rd and 4th time I got Impervious. So yeah, it is frustrating.
And to get the Cactuar Missions, in Mission 3-1-3, defeat the Cactuar there, and you will unlock the Cactuar missions.
Also, yes, get all DMWs to 100%, then you will get the Genji armor. You get Cactuar from defeat him in the Cactuar mission, and Phoenix, you will get when your at Nibelhiem as part of a side quest when you talk to a boy about some wonders.
——————-
Unfortunately, your stats are not good enough to defeat Minerva.
Try having your materia like this. Doesn’t have to be the same materia, but the stats are vital. This was my setup and stats:
My stats are:
Level 87
99,999HP
ATK 165
VIT 255
MAG 255
SPR 255
LCK 146
Curaga HP+999%
Costly Punch HP+999%
Quake LCK+100
Mug VIT+100
Assault Twister/Tri-Fire SPR+100
Flare MAG+100 [better to have it LCK+100 so your luck is 255]
Accessories: Genji Shield, Genji Glove, Genji Armor and Ziedrich on.
———-
Have something like that with those stats Doesn’t have to be the same materia. But Curaga and Costly Punch are VITAL, and Mug if you don’t have at least 20 phoenix downs (just in case)! And same with having at least 70,000hp (make sure you have 99,9999 though, otherwise, if you get BREAK HP, costly punch won’t work)
AP and MP are not that important. Having around 350 of both is enough,as you wont be using it much. Having luck MAX is really beneficial. ATK is not that important, but your attack will be above 140 if your level 70+ and have Zeidrich eqquipped.
Make sure you start the battle with Minerva with Raise on. And steal 99 Phoenix Downs from her. Keep using Costly Punch and block all her attacks as much as you can. Make sure you DEFFINETLY block Ultima, and have your finger on ‘Curaga’. As soon as Ultima takes a whooping 65,000hp off you or so, Cure your self. Sometimes she does it twice in a row. Also, as soon as you see the ‘Judgement Arrow’ sign at the top, go to your Items. After the move, quickly use a Phoenix down, and use an Elixir to recover you HP, MP and AP. Keep repeating this, and in no time, you should defeat her. It only takes no more than 110 Costly Punches XD (she has 10million HP, but she cures herself).
I hope that Helps!
EDIT: Currently, I am re-doing the game on hard to defeat her when she has 20million!. No where near getting her yet though, just became 1st Class XD
tnx man
just defeated minerva
got only divine slayer
umm i had an accident
i fused my drainga +500% hp (just got it somewhere)
and i want my luck to be 100
but i fused it to sp master and i don’t want it
how can i degrade this or fuse them to other materias so i cannot get sp master anymore???
Congratulations on defeating Minerva!
Was it really that hard? And yes, you get Divine Slayer. Its pretty decent actually.
Also. You can’t change your SP Master, well, don’t think you can :S. I think its a high level materia. You can fuse it with Gil Toss to get Gil Toss. But it also depends on the level – if its mastered or what? And degrading is not easy, its quite hard to understand it etc.
And personally, don’t worry too much about it. Steal 99 Phoenix downs. Fuse your desired materia with another materia that will give you the same materia along with a Fat Chocobo Feather. This will make your materia have hp+??%. fuse that materia again with another to get same materia with 99 phoenix downs. your materia should now have hp+999%. fuse it one last time again, but use mythril, or whatever to get you your LCK, and it will be +100!!!.
NOTE: hp 10% = +1 for lck,mag,spr,vit,atk.
100%= 10, 75%=75 etc.
Hope that helps.
Hey guys I’ve been reading the thread for the last couple of days and appreciate all the info. I had a few ?? though…
How do I get access to tri – fire/thunder/ice attacks, Ultima, Flare, Energy, etc. (strongest magic)?
Also is Mug an important materia? And whats the difference between Mug and Steal.
I notice on the front page the creator had Smart Consumer materia and I just made it myself but it doesn’t seem too useful.
Also what type of stats should I fuse together? I figured we won’t need ATK +100 since you’ll be using Costly Punch mostly or am I mistaken?
Any help is appreciated I just wanna be able to beat the Strongest Boss
whoah!!!
tnx man!!!!
it also helps that my luck is 100 above
cuz i always get to modulating phase!!!
i started all over again
so that i can get 100% of missions
and get the soul of heike
@Ricky Bobby,
Its always useful/helpful if you state where you are in the game, your level etc. What your saying is too vague, as it seems you still have quite some time to go. Seems like you didn’t quite read one of my previous posts regarding these materia, well, you will get many Ultimas, Flare, Tr-Fire and Tri-Thunder during the game.
Whats so good about Smart Consumer you say? It increases the effect of consumable items. May not sound that useful, but doesn’t mean you shouldn’t keep it. Also, the difference between Steal and Mug is obvious. Steal just steals from the enemy, that’s it. While Mug does not only steal, but also hurts the enemy – causing it some damage, so its an attack and steal put together. Mug is very useful indeed. Keep them all the time.
Finally, yes Costly Punch is needed. And again, seems like you didn’t read my previous posts as I already mentioned defeat the hardest boss/Minerva. Please scroll up and read them.
@Zeidrich.
You n00b!!! You shouldn’t have restarted again!! Once you’ve killed minerva, you should’ve just completed the missions to 100% then and get the Heike Soul. It would make things much easier! But also, the Heike Soul is not good to use against Minerva unless you have lots of SP like over 10million. I have 5mill. Went to get a phoenix downs from her twice or thrice. Ended up with 2.9 million SP, as I had Heike Soul which has SP Master level 1 or something, which uses SP to make your defense and attack stronger.
Hope that helps
well, i have “???” in my mission -monters in midgar!!!how do i suppose to get back to midgar?????
?????????
?????????
i have really 2 missions left!!!
and can be only get when ur in midgar!!
so how do i get that??
warp???
???????
I’m at depths of judgement that’s why i just restarted all over again
hey i wanted to show you a couple of neat stuff for the materia fusion guide. for the Dark magic stuff (Dark fire, Dark thunder, Dark Blizzard, etc.) if you actually fuse a fire(m)+esuna(m) then the result is a Hell fire. Do the same to get Hell Fira and Hell Firaga and to get Hell Blizzard or Hell Blizzara or Hell Blizzaga, just put in Blizzard(m)+esuna(m) and same goes with thunder. The difference between Hell and Dark is that Hell has a higher chance of inflicting a bad status on the monster than Dark does. plus, Hell does a little more damage.
aaaah!! That takes the mick Zeidrich!!!!
Ok then, understandable. This time becarefull, try doing all the missions you can and then move on in the game xD. Also, did you do the Wutai spies?
By the way, did you finish the game or restart from the beginning? If you restarted a new game you are a n00b! You should finish off the game, so you keep your stats and materia, and then the next game will be easy to do!!!
Sasuke, you can buy them materia later on in the game. But yes, you can get them through fusion like that.
erm. i kinda need help. my hp+ is already at the max level which is master and i cant fuse it with my curaga. it gives me the same material which is hp+. is there anythi i can do?
Well Quincy, don’t worry too much about it. I think you have to fuse it with a Level 4 Curaga. That should work, I hope.
Anything else?
i finished all the wutai missions
i have just 2 missions left missing
in monsters in midgar folder
not folders but 2 missions
that’s why i restarted
mr stick! its me again! hahaha!
im at chapter 9 and im really pissed with the 4th wonder mini quest. i cant find the combo for the safe.
im at lvl 78 now and im using
curaga hp +999%
costly punch hp+950%
tri thundaga (cant remember the stat it has, i think mp + something %)
flare +30 mag,
ultima +350% mp
and mug +100 vit
im adamantine farming so i can modify the flare and ultima stat to atk and spr respectively, i have a question though, does luk really affect the dmw? i thought it only affects crit?
and should i modify my accessories?
besides always having adaman bangle and brutal equipped, i sometimes use a combo of power and energy suit or ribbon and safety bit.
and another question! why does my ap sometimes go to 0 when i equip the power suit and unequip a materia that adds ap?
@Zeidrich. That really does take the piss 🙁 its a shame its those two missions in midgar. Grrr. Well, things should be easier for you now 🙂
Skidoodle! Yo man!
78? Blimey, not bad. Your stats are ok, but you won’t need the mp+, instead you’ll need 2 Hp+ materias (fused with curaga like you have), and the rest 4 materias should have Lck+100, Vit+100, Spr+100 and Mag+100. Atk is not that important. You need this for Minerva.
Don’t waste time on farming. Its not needed. Things get much easier as soon as you unlock Minerva. Your HP is 99,999 which is really good. Just have Zeidrich equipped with Genji Armor and Shield, and materias like quake, and your good to go in doing the 6-6-? missions! If you don’t have the Genjis, get them instead of wasting time on farming!!! Oh wait, you get Zeidrich at mission 6-5-6. But use brutal and other attack ups. (materia with atk+ something) along with costly punch should be very helpful actually. And LUCK is important, as it decreases critical damage, more success of critical hits for you etc. From what I’ve heard, it does effect dmw. But I didn’t notice that lol. xD
Lastly, power suit is only for your attack and VIT or was it SPR. It reduces your MAG and VIT/SPR. Something for the other accessories. its not important, leave it.
Leave your accessories. as they are.
Hope that helps
thanks a lot. this is what i’m looking for *tired*.
btw, whats the meaning of ‘M’?
ex: Fira = fire (M) + libra (M).
hope you can reply mine.
@Ayien:
M = Mastered Materia
thanks sylv3rblade:-)
sorry. i’m asking again. i just want to know where to get assault twister? and how to get mastered materia? thanks.
@Ayien
you can master ur materia
by the DMW..
it depends on the number where the slots
of materias were put
moogle also can help lvl up ur materias
if level 5, then all materias u equipped are MASTERED
thanks sir stick. i just finished defeating mako ifrit which took me like…. 10 or more tries. he was such a handful. i got ziedrich from this chest in mission 9-5- something. and i already bought genji helm.
now im kinda stuck at the mission with the three kakutars. i always die when they die. so whats up with that? i hit them with costly punch, and the next thing i know i have 0 hp.
im lvl 80 right now btw.
@Aiyen, you will get plenty of Assault Twisters throughout the game. It seems like you just started. Play the game for a bit longer and you will get it.
Greetings Skidoodle! lol Sir Stick xD I like 😛
Well done in beating him!! Yeah I know what you mean, he was a pain. How did I defeat him? Aah yes. Attacked with Costly Punch and blocked his attacks until he gave an opening. And Well Done on getting the Zeidrich 😀 Now things get easier!
Have Zeidrich Equipped with break HP and Attack (either the other Genji’s or Brutal and that). And the 4th accessorie, have errm…. anything that will be benefit for you. Make sure your stats like VIT and SPR are 200. The trick in beating them, which I did, and yes, I had a lot of problems with those little ******s myself! If there are 2 or more, try to make them together, and then hit one with costly punch and hopefully it should hit the other cactuars behind it giving 99,999 damage to all 3, try doing 2 Costly Punches and then RUN AWAY!! Run around getting near them and try to avoid their 1000 needles and do it again, always keep your HP up above 70k for better survival chance. This should do the trick. Also, try to avoid the battles by hugging the walls! I did this A LOT in the 6-6-? missions. Another way is, what I did, is when my hp was full, I just tried escaping, ended up loosing 40k or so HP, but just used Potions (they cure 9999 and are cheap, better than hi-potions in my case).
OH and you could try this, not sure if it will work or be effective enough, but have dual cast equipped and your MAG at 255. Equip Tri-Fire and use it agains them. Zack will release 6 shots. At normal enemy it should do around 25-30k damage each. A good thing about it is that its long range. So you can stay away from them instead of trying to get close with the Costly Punch (still have it equipped). But it might not work, as its Cactuar!
Well, try it and let me know how it goes!!
im anoob and i dont know anything, but how do you get pheonix downs and how do u get all this awesome materia like energy dual cast ect?
please help
@Aric:
you can get 99 phoenix downs from Minerva… Dual cast can be bought and energy can be created using the guide on page 3
thanxs but how do i get to minerva
sir stick!
okay, i tried killing cactuar with the tri fire technique you suggested, and it took me like… 20 minutes to kill all 3. when i got to minerva, the battle didnt even last 20 seconds. as soon as i stepped i front and tried to attack, bang! i get hit with a spell, thors hammer i think, and my face hit the ground.
i got genji shield from magic pot though! i got it in my second attempt, coz my first attempt, the dmw didnt do octaslash, i did rush asssault but i was lucky enough to encounter magic pot 2 times in a row!
i have a question, is dualcast essential in defeating minerva? i mean, its always useful to cast curaga 2 times in a row right?
@Aric,
You have to have missions 6-6-1. Minerva is at 6-6-6. To get missions 6-6-1 you have to complete missions 6-5-6. So complete missions 6-2-6 and 6-3-6 and then do the rest of the missions for 6-4-1 and onwards untill you get to Minerva. Its not easy by the way. So be prepared! (overall, you have to be at Chapter 6 in the game where you talk to the Shinra Manager and secretary in the main Shinra HQ Hall)
*slaps forehead* Skidoodle! I said try using the tri-fire technique if it proves to be useful! lol. Sorry I wasn’t clear on that. But atleast you did it xD. Sorry again. I used the costly punch way. lol
With regards to Minerva, look at my comment on her – defeating her and my stats. (post 271). Atleast have stats like that, if not like that, then something similar. Doesn’t have to be the same materia, it can be anything, but Costly Punch and Curaga are ESSENTIAL.
Also, read my other post, which is Post 251, for how to get +100 on your materia (only selected materia!, you have to see which is suitable when doing the first step). If you need more clarification, please ask. But! read what I said in those posts CAREFULLY!. lol.
Hmmm, Dualcast with Curaga. Thats a great idea. It works and is very effective. How comes that didn’t come to my head? Damn, oh well. Great Contribution Skidoodle! You make me proud!! 😀
oh just got 100% missions
got heike soul
hmm the only thing i hate
is that it has sp master
T_T man…
it’s even worse than curse status…
but i love it too coz it has
dualcast and all kinds of abilities
hmm is the mission of minerva-reigning deity
6-6-6??
or 9-6-6???
glad to be of help mr stick 🙂 so i tried to defeat minerva again last night, i dont know how long that battle was taking me. and how many phoenix downs it took. i was getting pretty bored, especially with the whole judgement arrow-elixir-phoenix down-repeat process so i just let myself die. i was experimenting on which combo of materia was good but then again, costly punch is the most effective.
my current lineup besides curaga hp+999% and costly punch+950% is…
tri fire +100 mag
mug +100 vit
quake +100 spr
(i forgot) +100 luk
right now, im trying to get all DMW to 100%, the only dmw left are cloud (90%), cissnei (90%) and genesis (10%)
its kinda frustrating too coz when cissnei comes up in the modulating phase, it changes to the reel where bahamut and all the others are.
oh! and this may be a little off topic but i watched FF7 last order last night and it was awesome! lol.
hey MrStick. the other time u told me to fuse my lvl4 curaga with my hp+(m). but it doesn’t work. does anyone else has any solutions for this? to fuse curaga with my hp+(m).
Lol Zeidrich, it is 9-6-6. My mistake! I didn’t remember that it was a mistake, but was too late lol.
And I know how you feel. It is a disappointment on the fact it has SP Master. I lost 2million SP when getting 99 phoenix downs from her twice. Didn’t realise it until I noticed my SP went from 5mill to 2.9 million or something like that.
@Skidoodle, lol! It took me not even 10 minutes to defeat her. Simple use as many Costly Punches as you can until her next attack and block or evade. It took me roughly 10 phoenix downs and 2 elixirs. Wasn’t that hard to be honest.
About mastering your DMW to 100%, I know it was frustrating for me as well. It took me over A LOT of hours to get Sephiroth from 75% to 100%. And trust me, you don’t want to know the number of hours lol.
@Quincy. Then I don’t know. I fused my Curaga and HP+ aaaages ago. Can’t remember what I did. I think I fused my HP+ to get something else with HP+???% and then fused that with Curuga to get my Curaga with the HP+???%. Something like that. Save and then experiment the obvious fusions! Sorry xD
btw wad is so good bout smart consumer? o.o
@Quincy
smart consumer
example:
u use ether
but it only heals half of ur mp
if u have smart consumer
it doubles
or so what they say
so if u use ether it heals ur MP fully
umm can someone help me how
can i fuse my full cure to other materias
so the reuslt will also be full cure
if i fuse my full cure the result is not full cure
Do i have to get to chapter 11 to unlock all the memories? and is it true that you have to set your dmw to heavenly before you can view the memories in genesis’ dmw?
the problem i have with minerva is she’s too aggressive, and keeps on using the crimson flare – flash slash combo. i cant get close to her. and when i hit her with costly punch, right away she uses thors hammer or that feather thing to damage me.
@skidoodle
u can sometimes cannot be hit by photon feather when ur near to minerva…or simply block it
thor’s hammer–ucan dodge it with the right timing, when she hammers her staff
crimson flare–block it, yes you should block it..
flash slash—if u raise ur luck to 155 above she can’t double hit her flash slash but it’s up 2 u…
by the way what’s ur stats???
@Quincy
Smart Consumer increases the effects of consumable items such as; Potion, Ether, Soma….
@Zeidrich
:O You got Full Cure! Before me!? :O lol. No problem. Unfortunately, you can’t fuse it to get the same results. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be saying have Curaga with HP+999%, and instead have Full Cure. We use Curaga as you can fuse it to get the same result. However, we don’t, well more like can’t use Full Cure as it will always give you a different result. There are a few materia that you can not fuse to get back to the original state. Full Cure is one of them.
@Skidoodle, as Zeidrich said. I usually throw 2 or 3 Costly Punches until she does Photon Feathers, and just stay close to her to avoid it, if anything get hit once or twice which only does 2500 damage roughly, or not even that. Sometimes I dodge ’em :D.
Thors hammer is easy to judge. As you as you see it at the top ‘Thors Hammer’ wait a second or two and then dodge. It won’t take long to get used to it. Her Flash Slash, I most of the time dodge it.
With regards to her Crimson Flare, always get right close to her and keep on blocking. If you don’t it may take upto 23,000 off you, if you block it gets reduced to 3,000 or so. As soon as your effected by its hit, quickly throw a good 2 or 3 Costly Punches.
The one where she freezes you, you can reduce the damage by blocking just in time. Oh and keep the Genji Shield on (the one with Auto-Regen). Its EXTREMELY useful. I had it when I first battled her seriously. And it was a great help.I didn’t worry too much on curing as long as my HP was above 75,000, even though the ice move took about 12,000.
As soon as you see ‘Judgement Arrow’ above, quickly put your finger on to the items list. As soon as judgement arrow is done, click on your items, left, and straight away use a phoenix down. It only took me no more than 10 (could have been 8 or 9 lol)
Your stats seem to be good like mine – should be if your at level 80ish. So I don’t see why your facing problems.
I don’t think you need to ask anymore. Just look at my stats and method.
Oh and about unlocking all memories, I don’t know if you have to be at chapter 11. I thought you do, but not sure. I was at the last chapter when I got 100%. Also, about the heavenly thing, don’t have a clue on that. The last 2 people I had to get to 100% was Cloud, and the worst Sephiroth. Blimey! Lets not go how long it took me to get Sephiroth!!!!!
so how about full cure and i fuse it with full cure???does it give also full cure???
they say u can get full care by rare steal on goliath mission 9-6-5
hey i need some help here, how do i defeat that stupid bird in hojo’s experiment mission? it keeps regen after i hit it. 🙁
thanks guys. when im battling minerva i always have adaman bangle, ziedrich, genji glove, genji shield equipped.
wait does genji shield give auto regen? i thought it only gave auto barrier, mbarrier, immunity to status effects and absorb elemental attacks?
im really ticked off, i cant get cloud and cissnei’s dmw to 100%. its still stuck at 90%. with genesis im starting to give up on it coz it stays at 10%
it’s genji armor with regen
Zeidrich, unfortunately, I can’t say anything on that, apart from don’t think so. I’m not sure, haven’t tried it.
Also, sorry for any mistakes I make in my information. I stopped playing it for quite some time, been busy, so starting to forget lol. And yeah, it was Genji Armor that has regen.
@Curious. Its not that difficult. Just keep hitting it with Costly Punch. Thats the main key in defeating strong enemies. You can try equipping Tri-Fire or Tri-Thunder along with Dualcast and see how effective that is. When I uses Tri-Fire and Dualcast on a monster it does 25,000 x6, which is 150,000 damage approximately. But it does drain your MP a lot xD.
@Skidoodle, try having these equipped: Genji Shield, Genji Glove, Genji Armor and Ziedrich.
Skidoodle, I waited until I was at the last chapter to get my DMW to 100%. And don’t loose hope. Your DMW percentage goes up when you view a new cut scene clip in the DMW mode.[not movie cut scene]. Sometimes you keep viewing the same one. But just wait, you’ll come across a new one and it will boost up your percentage.
For Cissnei, buy 4 Lucky Star materias and, equip them along with Moogle materia. Go into a the first few mission where you fight 50 or so Soldiers, and just leave the PSP – the DMW will keep on spining, you’ll get attacked and loose a bit of hp. While this happens, your bound to get Moogle Boost, level up your materia, which will increase your chances of getting that DMW. – if you understand what I mean.
Once you have 4 (or 5, and its ideal to have quake as your 6th materia in my opinion) or so Mastered Lucky Star Materias, do the battle again but without Moogle Boost. This will increase your chances of getting Cissneis DMW by I think x25. You’ll have LOADS of HP, so it wouldn’t matter if you get attacked 100 or so damage. Just heal yourself when you want/need to.
You can do the samething but with 1 or 2 Moogle Materia and the rest 4 other materias and master them this way – like I did. I just left the psp, and just pressed a button to prevent it from going on to sleep mode. Once you got your materia mastered (when the Moogle is at Lvl 5, your materia will be mastered, same with if its Lvl 4. If its Lvl 3, your materia goes from lvl 1 to level 4 – 3 levels up. Same thing with Lvl 2 and 1.
I hope that’s clear. Sorry if my explanation is not very clear – in a rush xD.
dont worry sir stick i get your explanation 🙂
i finally defeated minerva, it took me like 15 minutes, got a close call when she did ultima twice and then judgement arrow. i dont know how the heck i survived that. and to top it off, i finally got cloud and cissneis dmw to 100%. all thats left is genesis. currently trying to get it to 100%.
im doing the 200 soldier thing mission with divine slayer, ziedrich, the ring with auto regen and genji shield.
Aah I see. Thats good Soldier! lol
Congratulations!!! You made me proud :D.
Aaah, I know what you mean about the two Ultimas and Judgement Arrow. Happened to me. But mine was worse. I accidently pressed on ‘Curaga’ while she was doing her Ultima, which lead to Zack letting go of block and trying to cure, but it was just suicide and I died… BUT fortunately, I had raise on, and as soon as I used a Phoenix down, she did JA (Judgement Arrow). It was a very close call indeed.
And well done! Don’t you have Genji Armor? Why not use that for Auto-Regen? And are you doing the 200 Soldier mission for leveling up etc?
Is minerva really hard to defeat in hard mode???
i just got genji armor and soul of heike. soul of heike is like.. the craziest item ive ever seen. lol. with all the effects and the things it does.
Zeidrich, don’t know. Haven’t played Crisis Core in quite some time. And I still have quite sometime to get to minerva. But will let you know how she was/will be in Hard Mode.
@Skidoodle, well done :D. Indeed it is. But I don’t like the Heike Soul for 1 reason. It has SP Master, which i hate. Don’t need to say anything more about it lol.
Personally I was very disappointed to not get to fight sephiroth!
grr
my flat mate and I both defeated minerva without costly punch. mind you it does take ages and alot of dodge rolls
what does sp master do?
and how do you get heike soul?
Matt, you do fight Sephiroth. Or do you mean with Sephiroth?
What was the point in defeating her without Costly Punch? Its just a waste of time in my opinion. The end line is, you defeated her, simple as. But, well done :D.
—–
SP Master uses your SP to increase your attack damage and defense.
Heike Soul is an item you recieve once you get 100% on your missions, and has a lot of benefit, as follows:
o Break HP, MP, AP, and Damage Limit
o Add Sudden Death, Poison, Silence, Stop and Stun to ‘Fight’ command
(and adds them to some other physical techniques as well)
o Absorbs All Elements
o Auto-Potion
o Increases Drop Rates for enemies
o 100% successful steal
o Stolen and Dropped items are 100% rare
o Doubles Gil, Item/Materia from enemies
o Smart Consumer Level 1 (increases item effects)
o Double Magic
o Auto-Libra
o SP Master Level 1 (spend SP to increase damage done and reduce damage taken)
Combine that with Genji Helm and Genji Shield, plus one other thing of your choice and your sorted!

erm i wanna ask how am i able to aquire all missons? some of them are still ???. does that means i have to restart?
Quincy man!
Play the game, you unlock some missions from completing some missions. Other missions are unlocked through out stages in the game. Also, there are a few hidden missions, which are the Wutai Spies.
Where abouts in the game are you though? that’s the main factor.
especially the monsters in midgar!!
so how am i suppose to find those hidden missions? im nearing the end already. cuz i did restart once. and currently my completed missions is onli 73% o.o excluding misson 9-x-x.
guys i just finished the game, the scene where zack died was pretty tear jerking. haha. i started new game + on hard mode, and as of now i dont find it pretty hard. probably because im level 94 right now. im at the wutai part and its getting pretty boring.
To unlock the mission, you have to participate in the ‘Wutai Spies’. This is where you have locate 6 wutai spies within Midgar. After each spy you locate, you unlock a mission. If you haven’t done that then you can’t get 100% in your Missions. Don’t worry though. Complete the game and then redo it with your stats. It’ll be easier. Once you complete the game, and start again you will have your materia, equipment and stats etc.
@Skidoodle,
I know what you mean. It was very tear breaking, I seriously wanted to cry!!
And yeah, it doesn’t seem hard, I think its only Minerva whos effected by it. And I know…. its boring. I can’t be asked doing it all over again, just want bloody Minerva!!!! ARGH! lol
its kinda boring, especially when you one hit all the bosses. right now im playing FF7 on my psp. lol. its been years since i played. im using the popsloader thing to play it.
Don’t Farm Adamantites this takes entirely too long. you have to reenter the mission over and over. Just do the same thing you would do with them with the dark matter. You can farm them from the worms in 7-6-6 where the first magic pot can be spotted. I was here trying to get my genji crap. no the stupid birds are a pain but just dodge them and use Quake along with a energy suit and you should have to only use it 3 or 4 times on the birds. But when you are with the worms and the demons you can one or two shot them and with the mog amulet you can get a dark matter for each worm!! and continue in the same mission I got 99 without even thinking about it. I did the same procedure with the Adaman and then only traded on Adaman to change it to vit or Hero drink, or etc you get the picture. Be sure to have Gil Toss, Costly Punch, and you HP 99,999 in case that stupid pot is pops up and pray to god for a Sephrioth DMW >.> . . . .
In my opinion…. Do not even farm for those items. Its a waste of time whether its adamantite or dark matter.
Use that time to get to Minerva, and you don’t have to worry about dark matter etc, as long as you have a good number of them like 20. I’ve seen this many times!!
STOP WASTING TIME IN FARMING WITH DARK MATTER ETC!!!!!
For more info, look at my previous posts 😀
(about the birds, you can use costly punch on them when they’re together so it hits both of them)
BTW why would you farm
dark matters??
magic has no use when u get to minerva
or so they say huhu…..
and even one octaslash materia is enough….if ur a patient person..like me
I can’t go to minerva if MrStick didn’t post!
so listen to MrStick ppl!!!
HUHUHU!!!!
Yeah!
Lol Zeidrich, thanks for the support 😀
And you did well oh young apprentice xD
(psst, you meant to say ‘I couldn’t’ not I can’t :P)
I keep trying but it doesnt work. I try to fuse a mastered normal costly punch with a mastered hp +999% but it always comes out with hp +999%. How do i continue?
Isu, read my comments carefully on that issue. I don’t want to repeat what I said for the third time, sorry. So just read my posts.
wow, i got 3 magic pots in a row and i still cant get genji shield… Its been 4 days already lol….. Already had 2 lvl 3 octaslash and 1 lvl 3 octaslash and still cant…. woe is me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im lvl 59 with 67945 hp, 163atk, 162vit, 5mag(lol),4spr and 42 luk.
My materia is curaga+999%hp(m), costly punch(m), mug(m), hp + 430%(lvl1),air strike(lvl 1), Meteor shots(lvl 3)
Im trying to get 100% for Cloud and Tseng.
My eqs are genji shield, adman bangle, brutal and power suit.
I just started to collect the genji items so i only have genji shield as of now.
Is this good?
@isu
take off your power suit. you’ll need spirit when it comes to mission 9-5-x. with those flare-energy-ultima enemies.
try fusing as much as you can to get high stats.
prioritize. if you want to have 100% first, do the easier missions again or what have you. if you want to have better accessories, try to reach missions 9-x-x first.
anyway, reaching minerva and stealing 99 phoenix downs can give you a good fuse. and a good amount of gil to expend for buying dualcasts and converting them to sp. haha
try to get the zeidrich accessory. it adds 100 to each stat except luck. it might be better. 😛
I really wish Zack was on final fantasy Dissidia. He would pwn..
Hello,
I’m looking for FullCure materia, and your guide says the magic pot in mission “determined recruiter” has it. But, after 139h of patient search for the pot and hope for octaslash to come out i find myself with 3 jenji wtf they are and 5… i mean FIVE impervious.
Now, am I doing smt wrong, or is your guide like… sayin’ things that are not true?
please help me
The comment cut off for some reason, anyway. Full Cure can be acquired from:
Drop:Magic Pot in mission 7-6-6
Steal:Goliath in mission 9-6-5
You can check out other guides if you want to xreference.
And it’s genji not jenji. Stop beating yourself with a post
how to get the mug materia?
Thanks! finally I have that F****ing materia!!
Another question: I used a phoenix down with minerva, and started punching the costly hell out of her, once she started the Judgement arrow I could still see the feather over zack’s head, but that blow killed me sameway… WHY?
PS… what’s the meaning of “beating one’s self with a post?” really, I can’t find it anywhere
hmm..i tried the steal+libra+smart consumer but i just ended up with steal..what am i doing wrong? or do they have to be a certain lvl or something?
@Myshkin
check page 3 for the materia table
oh never mind..i found out what was wrong.
and thank you for all of this! its a lot of help. ^^
FINALLY! I KNOW NOW HOW TO GET ZACK’S LIFE INTO 99999HP! NOW I CAN DEFEAT THE SHIN-RA TROUPS!!! HAHAHAHA
yes! i beat the game! YES YES YYYEEESSS!!! now it’s time for final fantasy vii advent children! hmmmm…what will i do here?can anyone answer me?
@secret name
you can replay the Game in Hard Mode
dudes if u want an easy hp+ go do the mission 4-4-4(wutai in the slums) most of the monsters there are Vajadhara knight so in that 1 mission i like mugged at least 10 hp+ compared to the missions 4-4-1 and 4-2-5 this ones a guarenteed ^_^ and to all who play final fantasy have fun!!!
Easy Dark Matter, SP, Gil Farming Tip:
(Dark Matter for +100 Stat, SP for fusion, Gil for uhh… money)
Equip Mog’s Amulet
Mission 6-6-3: Secret in the Caverns
Lesser Worm drops Dark Matters and they spawn 2-3 worms per encounter and the mission boss are 6 worms.
Mover EX gives 8,000 SP each kill and i recommend killing off other monsters before the Movers (but don’t get damaged) to multiply 8,000 SP by 2 or sometimes 3. Movers also drop Rune Armlet which sells for 4,000 Gil.
Horned Devil drops Darkness which can be converted to 6,040 SP.
Got my +100 stat materias in just 3hrs of farming. Enjoi~
how do ya get 99999 damage from costly punch? I get 9999 only.
you need genji glove to get your maximum damage from 9999 to 99999.
how do i activate mission 4-4-4
If you have two libra master
with atk + 5.
you can fuse witth 99 fire rigns, ice
rings, thunder rigns you’ll
get libra master with atk +20.
is there any way to get Drainga or Aerial Drain back to a different materia, i have +50 luck and +350% HP on them and they are absolutely USELESS materia…
sadly there’s no way for that. You have to start over for your new materias (referring to the stat bonus) since Drainga and Arial Drain don’t change to more usable materias.
Hi all, i think that with zieldich and genji helm, electrocute does more damage than costly punch. Costly punch does 99999 damage. But electrocute with zieldich does 45k per hit. The max you can hit an enemy with electrocute is 3 times per spell. So that makes 135k damage as apposed to 99k.
how can my hp be 99999. it only says 9999 and stays that way
never mind. i have to use adaman bangle. but where do i get this adaman bangle? please help
It’s on page 2 of the guide.
hey i tried to combine hp++999% to curaga but the end results to the former and not the magic, and pretty much any materia i fuse to hp++. will it make any difference if i fuse it with an hp+ only?
Only HP+ works.
Please refer to page 3 of the guide for the full list of materia fusion formulas
btw i have an sp master hp+999% materia – hp++999% fused with an sp turbo materia. but i’ll spare that for later since it really expends a lot of sp. so for now i’m trying an alternative, and that’s curaga +hp999%
the only issue is that one almost always deals 99k and almost always hits with the loss of only a negligible amount of hp whereas electrocute may miss and uses mp… however with dualcast i suppose having a whole ton of lightning bolts dealing 45k each would be extremely useful…if only dualcast could have greater MP%
I’ve read over all these comments on cloud being stuck at 90%, and I’ve the same problem… I’ve seen all the scenes and just jumped into the pit after chapter 11, I’ve been doing mission 5-1-1 with full vit, fire absorption, and luck of 145… any ideas?
try equipping the ff materia:
4 meteor shots
2 lucky stars
increase your vitality using some items
then go to mission 1-1-1.. let those shinra people harass you but make sure to block or dodge the solar plexus.. just wait for the reel to hit either cissnei (for increasing the probability of a DMW skill) and cloud (to get that final scene)
i’ve got 80% cloud before and with this i managed to find the last 2 scenes 🙂
I have a better way actually to max stats. Instead of collecting Adamantite, with Mog’s Amulet equiped, you can steal Lunar Harp while farming for SP. It’s more convenient that way instead of going back and forth on missions
there is an item that I found in a mission but i don’t know what is it for or what kind of advantage does that item have.
the item is called “feather cap”
im lost i tried followin ur 1st tips but it never actually told me how 2 get hp up+999
i only got to hp up+540 help me out
Where exactly are you having troubles? If you look at the comments a lot of people have already found it useful.
im havin trouble tryin 2 make hp up+ 999 i got as far as having 2 hp up+ 130 and dats it
combine that hp up+ 130 to another hp up+ as shown here:
oh ok so ur sayin i add da hp up +130 to another hp up+130 and then wat i get i hafta creat all over again startin wit da hp up+20 rite? so i got it but sadly i accidently saved over my data even though i finished da game last nite:(
yep. or you can just focus on a single hp up+ materia and continue adding new hp up+ ones to it. Gradually you’ll end up with hp up+ 999% 😀
ok i think i understand but its gone take me a while since i gotta start all da way bck 2 the bathhouse oh yea wats da best way 2 get through all the missions cuz i got pretty far but i still get beaten and i was lvl 45
get your HP to 99999 and just use costly punch (usually kills enemies with one hit)
ok ima try dat i think im off 2 a good start neways since i been collectin hp up+ 20 is that good?
where do u get the genji stuff
ok i finally got da hp up+999 but it wont let me mix it with curaga to make curaga+999:( y? is it cuz curaga is lvl master
and hp up+999 is lvl 3? help me out i rly wanna do all da missions and fight minerva
Read page 3 😀 It has a table that’ll help you solve your problem.
one more question how in da hell did u get ur health all the way up 2 all those 9’s becuz i have 999 hp up+ but my health is only at 40,000 or less i wanna kno ur secret? or does ur lvl have enthing 2 do with it becuz my lvl rite now is 58
you need 2 materias with HP +999% and yeah it’s your level as well.
Goblin punch can also be aquired from stealing from 1 of the bosses in mission 9-2-1
how to you fuse items with the materia?
on mine it only shows two slots for materia
You need to progress further in the game.
Hear Yeah!!! I got a better idea than collecting HP+! Try mission 9-2-4 and steal Hero Drink from the scissor monster (spider-like)!
They usually come up by 2’s so ull have 99’s of those in no time. sweet!
There is so much to do with this whole materia fusion idea they incorporated into the game it just makes me giddy :p
Unfortunately, it would take forever to make every materia and get every item available, so does anyone have an idea of what the “ultimate” combination of equipment would be. Im sure it varies from person to person but i would like to work towards only the materia and such that are the best
i tried stealing from the two onsters it even shows in the pictures but all i ever ended up getting was power attack and i have mog’s equiped
do *not* equip the mog amulet when hunting the big dudes for the hp+ materia – it is *not* the rare. it is the common drop. I unequipped the mog amulet and it started dropping regularly – vital slash is the rare.
I just wanted to say that this page is awesome, I was able to put my HP from around 2400 to 8000 in an hour! Thanks!
in this guide, only u and brian did the most impressive thing in guiding newbies. thanks for the much needed info on getting zeidrich. becoz of what the owner post on the web, i search intensively on his wrong mission tip. its beena few times i seen that his mistake caused quite a few of us to be in deep mess. thanks again to u and brian.
Costly Punch + HP 999%:
step 1
Fuse 2 lvl 1 DMW materias with a fat chocobo feather
Result = lvl 1 libra with hp +40%
I dun seem to have this result, I’ve gotten lvl 1 libra with hp+20% instead. Can anyone verify this? Thanks
Make sure your costly punch has been mastered before combining.
i already got hp++master +999% but my hp is still 9999 only & not 99999? whats wrong??
you need Genji Armor to break to 99999, get it by completing the dmw at 100%. it makes you endure and regen as well
sorry for my english xD
do yu have adaman bangle? or something that breaks the hp limit?
Thats because power attack is the rare drop HP up+ is common drop.
Hope that helps.
Hey FOlks.. I got my Hp+ 999% and also i got my adaman bangle… but then.. my hp still below 99999, it reaches only up to 40000+ life..
do i need another Hp+ 999%??
Yep. You need another one to reach 99999
just adding this:
you can get Goblin Punch Materia
in other misson not only at Mission 4-5-4, i made 1 now and i got it, mission is 9-2-1 equip steal and Brigand’s Gloves and you get Goblin punch from 1 boss and hammer punch from other.
i stole goblin punch, get an iron fist, tri-fire n even tri-thundaga…bt y isn’t it showing in my item nor materia list? i’m afraid dat i’m doin all d mission 4 nothin’
It’s a bug. I encountered that as well after leaving the Nibelheim mansion. If you have a save near or before that, revert otherwise you’re stuck with having no new materias 🙁
SRRY FOR MY ENGLISH XD
IF YOU WANT EASY +100 STATS OR +100%HP
GET MONEY (THERE ARE VARIOUS TRICKS) AND BUY 99 MOG’S AMULETS IN THE SECTOR 7 SHOP (I’TS EASY TO GET IT) THEN FUSION THE AMULETS WITH A MATERY+LIBRA…
THE RESULT= THE MATERY+99 LUCK
THEN FUSION THE MATERY +99 LUCK+LIBRA+ADAMANTITE (STRENGHT) OR CHOCOBO FEAR (HP) OR FOR EXAMPLE OTHER THAN GIVE MAGIC, INTELIGENCE
thx 4 d info…i nw can cntinue wif my game…bt actually my prob is my materia item slot was full..XP…erm…if i wan get 999% AP, izit d same as d way i wanna get 999% hp? bt i think it’ll cost more money…hmmm
btw, thx again
Hi, i’m just wondering where can i find the genji gloves that breaks the damage from 9999 to 99999? what mission?
Thanks,
i don’t know about the gloves but you get brutal witch breaks the damage limit in mission ….errr … 7-4-6 🙂
I need to be able to find these special items like the genji ones, plus I need a decoder for fusion in general. I need tri-thundaga, and those special materias. I also want to wonder why my black cowl and the Goldhairpin don’r seeem to work. I’d appreciate your help, and would do you any favor I can for a real response
cool we’re on the same page then, I’ll wait to hear from you RL
The Fusion table is on the last page of the guide 🙁
http://atmaxplorer.com/2008/04/crisis-core-materia-fusion-guide-stat-modifier-trick/3/
I really need somebody’s help, I’m in the Depths of Judgement with 98% mission completion. The only missions I have left are 9-6-4/5/6, 1-1-6, and 2-1-6. 2-1-6 is not unlocked which it seems like it should be. Am I screwed because I should have done something in Midgar to unlock it or can I still unlock it before I beat it.
Looks like you missed some stuff 🙁
Hmm…I read something where it says this mission can only be unlocked if I do something special while builing the flower wagon.
maybe you had to get a quality tire from the guy in the mission room office that you did missions for. Ü
You just made me do 2 hp+ 999% materias, and you tell me “you can combine curaga + Hp+ 999% = Curaga 999%hp” , this is wrong how ever , since hp+ is dominant and it erases the curaga the result will be the same hp+ 999% materia , adding no effects whatsoever, and just simply vanishing curaga.
What the hell im supposed to do to get rid of the 2 hp materias taking room in my equimpent, so i could combine them with other materias without being dominant?
Okey I just found some good info on Gamespot forums. You need to first combine HP+ materia with Hell Fire/bliz/thu to create Status Ward 999% hp, now combine this with Curaga to make Curaga 999% hp.
You have to use a MASTERED HP+. The effects of materia fusion are different when you’re using a regular materia and a mastered one.
i found the best info ever this shit saved my ass big time alright when i took a doo doo my ass was red i was showing my girl and throw on the bed and said more more i was scared because she was holdind a huge knife and then i found out she was cooking.
Hi,
With regards, in stealing HP UP+ every time I used the command steal or Mug I got Power Attack instead. Have tried both option 1 and 2..
Please help.
Thanks
i noticed in the screenshot image you listed showing mog’s amulet in your equipment, I noticed that your max hp was shown as 99999 even though you dont have adament bangle or genji armor equipped. how does that work?
Divine Slayer = HP +100%, MP +100%, AP +100%, increases all your stats +50, breaks the HP, MP and AP limits and also gives Auto-Libra
where we could find the divine slayer??
Very nice tips.^^
Can I translate this article into Korean to my blog?
Please…^^
Just provide the proper link back to the original article (here) and we’re good 🙂
What happens if I miss the boy’s quest on chapter 9? To get the Pheonix materia. Is there any way to go back? please help!
RE movers are better in 6-6-1 (8000 sp & rune armlet) anyways i was using mog’s amulet
couldn’t you just steal from the scorpion mech to get 2 SP barriers so that you could switch them for 17200 SP each and all you need is a steal/mug materia and a mog’s amulet
couldn’t you do that?
where are the monsters to steal from? i would prefer a map location cause i cant seem to find them at all
i mean steal the hp up+
Hey i get lots of Magic Pot on 10-2-3 but i cant get the gengi shield, what is happening??
HP++ MASTER into Curaga MASTER.
(HP++ MASTER XXX%) + (Exploder Blade Lvl 1) —> Exploder Blade Lvl 1 XXX%
(Exlpoder Blade Lvl 1 XXX%) + (Death Blade/Poison Blade Lvl 1) —> Death Blade Lvl 1 XXX%
(Death Blade Lvl 1 XXX%) + (Death Lvl 3+) —> Death Lvl 3+ XXX%
(Death Lvl 3+ XXX%) + (Curaga MASTER) —> Curaga MASTER + XXX%
does HP+999% makes your HP to 99999? because i have HP+999% but my health isnt 99999 but 40000+.. or does it have to depend on zack’s level too?
i cant seem to unlock mission 9 and i don’t know how to do it and it seems that i need to to be able to get all of this stuff also unlocking missions in 10
Tip for very fast SP gain!!
When farming Adamantite from the boss in 9-3-4 you can Mug 2 SP Barriers from the boss.. Use SP Convert to get 15010 SP each for a total of 30020 SP each fight.
guys wer farm materia phenix down mission?
