Stick's FF7 100%

Getting started and preping

For FF7 there isn't much prep but i recommend this, make sure before you leave Midgar you get all the Materia there, there is one specific at the Shinra building with the Mayor's question game

Duration of the game

Gil you don't have to worry about and you collect it through out and plus you will get the achievement regardless during grinding endgame

Limit breaks - Note before you go to the temple of the ancients, either save or do it now where you must grind Aerith to her max limit break, i believe she only has 3 total limit breaks if i am not wrong, make sure to gather them and grind her. And for the other's gather the limit breaks as well, i recommend the forest next to the are where you find Cloud after the mountain, it's across i think it has goblins and you can easily farm kills and there's a lot on screen, and for the kills, this will take a very long time, and make sure casted hyper on one of your characters so they can get their limit break. For Aeirth it took me about 3 hours, 35 levels to get her last limit

Gather all Materia important, do not forget a single piece of Materia, and make sure to do the few side quests

Enemy Skill Materia, make sure to not only get this but also to make sure you get all enemy skills before you kill specific enemy's, Pandora's box is the trickest because it has to hit the person and Pandora's box only happens per save, so make sure to god get it or make a back up save

Story achievements you will get automatically, i did the end of the game achievement last to end my run

Party doesn't matter besides the limit breaks

Grinding

This will be the worst part of the game of all time, the Master of Materia is an easy task but at the cost of time, it will eat all of it, i think it took me 3 days total to get it and here's how

At the end of the game make sure to choose the left side for your route, you will then get into a swamp room with pots, kill them and you will recieve a lot of AP, there is another spot to grind faster and it's the beach next to the place where you find Cloud, also make sure to have a AP weapon equiped to get more, this will take hours, all i did was listen to spotify. Cid and Red 13 have the best AP weapons in the game so use those two

The gil and level ups you will get naturally just doing this, no need to worry

Master of Materia

Achievement is bugged and If this doesn't pop after knowing you got all Materia to max level, exit whatever place then head down to the grass area next to Midgar, enter a battle and win it, then it should finally pop, i was worried because it wasn't popping but with this it did

Weapons

Emerald weapon will kill you instantly if you have full matera so have less and get the breathing underwater materia for the fight

You can either manipulate Cait Sith's limit break to insta kill Emerald or have Knights of the round take it out, you can also fight it naturally which is pretty hard

Ruby Weapon, this one is a gamble it will swallow one of your party members so have Cloud equiped with pheonix, and Knights of the round double, spam Knights of the round until it's dead, and if Cloud dies he can be resurrected by the pheonix. This will take a really long time and you will die, so just keep trying until it dies, i managed


Clean Up

Not much very minor but to get a gold chocobo or even to get the Knights of the round, you can easily save manupulate the RNG of the chocobo you get



Ending

By the end after you beat the game, your save should look like this, i know the game so i got through sections super fast, 100%ing one of my favorite games of all times was no simple task, it was long and tedious but i'm glad i did it (PS don't mind the spelling errors you get the point) (3:07am 2-8-2026)
