Final Fantasy VII Walkthrough - PART TWO - Video Games - http://maxpages.com/superguy911/FF7_Walkthrough_Part

After defeating the boss, climb the ladder, walk around the corner and down the stairs, turn south, and then head up the stairs and north. Go down into the sewer and then up the stairs. Be sure to pick up the Steal materia on the eastern edge of this chamber. In the next area, jump down the chute. Proceed south, down the stairs, west, up the stairs, east, and then up a ladder. You arrive next to a save point in a train graveyard.

Tifa suggests there may still be time to save the rest of Avalanche before Shinra toasts Sector 7. Enter the now-open fence and use the save point. With Tifa, climb up the many sets of stairs to the apex of the power generator. There you'll find Barret and the other rebels in a pitched battle with Shinra forces. Take advantage of the chance to equip or switch materia. Reno, the same Shinra jerk who came after Aeris at the church, jumps out. He programs the generator's controls to blow. You'll have to fight. Barret joins you. When you inflict enough damage, Reno flees like the coward he is.

NOTE
Throughout most of Final Fantasy VII, fights with Shinra thugs end not with their demise but with them flipping you the bird and jaunting off. You expected a handshake?

After fending off Reno, Tifa and Cloud fiddle with the generator's controls, to no avail. A helicopter appears, carrying Reno and a kidnapped Aeris. (The cad slaps her!) Tifa and Cloud piggyback on Barret, who swings Tarzan-like to safety as Sector 7 goes up in flames.

The remaining heroes recover in the slum playground. Sadly, Avalanche members Jesse, Biggs, and Wedge didn't make it. Barret mourns his fallen comrades. Cloud is alone once again, but not for long, as Tifa and Barret catch up. A valuable Sense materia is yours for the taking.

Return to Aeris' home. Talk to her foster mother, who, on learning of the kidnapping, reminisces in a flashback about how she came to care for Aeris. You can spend the night and heal upstairs.

Return to Wall Market

ADVANCE INTELLIGENCE REPORT
Recommended EXP Level 14
Landmark(s) Slum playground to the south
Earlier Development(s) Survived Sector 7 explosion
Goal(s) Purchase batteries needed to reach Shinra Headquarters
Save Point(s) Just east of the sushi bar

You must now return to Wall Market. Buy a three-battery set in the gun shop for 300 gil from one of the two blacksmiths (the one not selling weapons). Go north of town, but do not enter Don Corneo's compound. Instead, follow the romping kids east to a dank dead end covered with graffiti. Climb the pipe. Maneuver to the box to the southeast. Insert a battery by examining the box. Above you, a propeller turns. Walk up and over the stopped propeller to another box on the suspended train tracks to the west. Inserting a battery here raises an obstacle. Go over the obstacle and up to a swinging metal wire. Hitch a ride on the wire. After climbing and then descending along a very thick wire, you'll find another box.

MAKING LIKE TARZAN
Timing is very important. Jump onto the wire just as the wire completes its arc and starts to head back away from you. Do a Tarzan yell to get into the swing of things.

Power-up the last box with the final battery. Climb down the wire, and go north up the large pipe. You'll emerge outside the front doors of Shinra's Midgar headquarters.

First use the save point outside this monument to Shinra's power. Many difficult melees lie ahead, and there are only two save points inside. Your ultimate goal is to reach the penthouse, 70 floors up.

If you choose Barret's entry plan of attack, get ready for some tough opposition. Take the elevator. (Before you enter, read the Turtle Paradise newsletter posted next to it.) Keep examining the controls to activate the elevator. Eventually, the elevator will stop on the 59th floor, but expect difficult combat stops on the 18th, 27th, 36th, and 49th floors. Between floors, the party can heal up and relax.

ADVANCE INTELLIGENCE REPORT
Recommended EXP Level 15
Landmark(s) Up from Wall Market
Earlier Development(s) Saved Barret in Sector 7
Goal(s) Rescue Aeris and rescue and recruit Red XIII
Save Point(s) Outside front door and on the 64th, 67th, and 69th floors
Inn Free (Bed on 64th floor)
Accessory Shop (2nd floor )

If you choose Cloud's plan, you will follow Tifa's lead through a side entrance to the west. You'll have to climb over 50 sets of stairs, but you will not have to fight until you reach the 59th floor.

59th Floor
Dispatch the security guards to the southeast. Snatch the key, enter the tubular elevator, and go to the 60th floor. Unless you wish to head back down and out the tower, use only the tubular elevators from now on.

60th Floor
Go to the room in the northwest corner. The party splits up. Cloud must exit east and then sneak east to the center of the floor without alarming the guards. Until you do this correctly, the guards will attack over and over again.

HIDE AND GO SEEK!
Whenever the guards cross in formation, slip east behind the next statue. If you feel really daring, try to cross in one try. The guards on the right are quicker, so look sharp.
To reconstitute the party once you reach the center unobserved, signal the others to join you. After one last battle, take the east stairway up to the 61st floor.

61st Floor
A man hanging around outside the stairway alcove asks you about Aeris. If you ignore him by pretending he does not exist, he coughs up the key to the 62nd floor.

62nd Floor
On this floor, search all the shelves in the four library rooms. Talk to the Mayor of Midgar in his office, as well as his deputy, Hart, outside. Give the Mayor the correct answer to his question and receive an elevator key for floors 63, 64, and 65. Just keep inputting answers until you get it right.

TIP
Victory in Final Fantasy VII takes quite a while, even if you follow the most direct and easiest path through every quest. Many places are full of nooks and crannies containing treasures galore. Go ahead and explore these if you are surviving battles and are close to save points or places to heal up.

If you succeed on the first try, you'll receive an Elemental materia. (The Mayor's question is an interesting logic puzzle. If you want, you can pay Hart lots of money for hints.)

63rd Floor
While not required to complete the game, solving the puzzle on this deceptive floor can yield three valuable items, including another powerful All materia. You can open only three of the many locked gates you find on this floor. First head to the top of the screen and open the northeast door. Head west and open the northwest door. Take the coupon. Use the black walkway to reach the room with the second coupon. Exit, and open the left door. Proceed north to the room where you find the third coupon. Return to the computer and redeem any or all of the coupons. Coupon A is good for a Pendant of the Stars, Coupon B is good for Four Slots, and Coupon C gets you an All materia. Now you're one smart shopper!

64th Floor
In the room to the southwest, use the save point. If you like, take a healing rest on the bed. You can return for more healing anytime you like. Then it's time to proceed to the 65th floor.

65th Floor
Monsters roam this floor, so be prepared. A model of Midgar dominates the floor's center room, but notice that several pieces are missing. Start trying to open the many treasure chests. Most are locked. If you hear a click when you open one, you've received a missing piece of the map. Return to the map room and insert the piece into a broken section.

Placing a piece in the model opens a previously locked chest. Repeat this process several times. Inserting the last missing piece gives you access to the chest in the stairwell, which contains the key to the 66th floor.

66th Floor
Need to go? Speed to the bathroom to the northwest. Climb atop the toilet, and enter the air vent. Eavesdrop on the Shinra cronies. Return to the bathroom and follow the ponytailed Hojo, Shinra's head scientist, up the stairs.

67th Floor
Keep following Hojo, who looks into a holding tank that contains a strange crimson lion. Cloud peers into another tank containing a horrid genetic abomination. Hojo goes upstairs. You can't follow, so head past the tanks to a save point. Enter the lift.

68th Floor
Hojo is again peering into the tank, but this time the tank holds none other than Aeris! The lion appears alongside her. The party confronts Hojo, and Barret forces him to open the tank. The lion leaps for Hojo's throat. Cloud rescues Aeris. The party welcomes the lion, Red XIII. A boss and three guards attack.

Aeris and Tifa leave and agree to meet the others at the elevators on the 66th floor. Before leaving, grab the Enemy Skill materia that has appeared in the tank. Climb up the stairs just east of the tank, and obtain a key to the 68th floor from the lab technician.

67th Floor
After you descend and try to use the 66th floor elevators, Shinra guards capture you and your comrades and place you in holding cells on the 67th floor. Talk to everyone, and then rest. When you wake up, the door to your cell is unlocked, and the guard is dead. In fact, all the Shinra employees are dead! (Get the feeling Sephiroth was here?) Escape by lifting the dead guard's key. Aeris and Tifa now join Cloud. Head for the penthouse with Tifa and Aeris.

69th Floor
Stop on the 69th floor to use the save point to the south and then run up either stairway.

When you get to the penthouse, check out the dead Shinra leader. Enter the north door. Outside, talk to Rufus, who's the new president of Shinra, Inc. This cold-hearted villain is unaffected by the brutal death of his dad.
The other characters return to the floor below. Tifa stays behind to wait for Cloud upstairs. Aeris now leads Barret and Red XIII. Change her position to the rear, and have Barret or Red XIII lead. Equip materia for the big fight that's coming up-but don't forget to save some for Cloud-he'll need it soon.
Aeris' party should take the lift to the south. When you activate the elevator and begin to descend, first a huge gun-toting machine (Hundred Gunner) and then a second boss (Heli-Gunner) attack.

The perspective switches back to Cloud. Heal yourself if necessary, equip Cloud with materia if you haven't already done so, and then continue. Rufus will attack you. After taking some damage, Rufus flies off in a chopper.

Leave the roof. Head to the 69th Floor. Tifa is waiting. Save the game.

The other rebels reach the ground floor. Tifa joins them and tells of Cloud's plan to escape. Cloud appears on a huge motorcycle. Terminator, look out! (Of all the visual treats in Final Fantasy VII, this is my favorite.)

Once the rebels literally smash out of the tower, re-form the party. Protect the heroes in the truck from enemy cyclists.

HOG STRATEGY
Concentrate on the Shinra cyclists who are directly attacking the truck and ignore those who are just whizzing by. Keep careful tabs on the hit points of the heroes. If all fall to zero, the race for freedom is over. Try using your cycle as a wedge, thereby blocking access to the truck.

After coming out of a long tunnel, you'll reach a dead end. Here you'll fight Motor Ball, the boss who's been chasing you. The heroes' hit points now reflect all the damage they've taken during the escape.

Finish off this boss and find yourselves outside of Sector 7's main gate. Decide who will be in your group, and then head south. Good-bye Midgar, for now!
