NIBELHEIM SAFE CODE
This question gets asked so much, I had to do something about it
The code is: Right 36 - Left 10 - Right 59 - Right 97
After you open the safe, You'll fight the Lost Number, Don't worry, he's
not very hard. After the Fight, you'll get the Following:

Cosmo Memory (On the "Items Won" screen after defeating Lost Number)
Basement Key (In the Safe) See below on how this can get Vincent to join
you Odin Materia (On the Floor next to the safe)

...Now isn't that worth wasting 20 seconds opening the safe???

------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE HUGE MATERIA ROCKET CODE
Another commonly asked question, as there's no way of learning the code
otherwise

The Code is:
Code 1 - O
Code 2 - S
Code 3 - X
Code 4 - X

After inputting the code, You'll get the last huge Materia!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------

TIFA'S PIANO CHART
Say you remember how the melody goes and press the Following Buttons:
X, S, T, L1+T, L1+S, X, S, T, L1+X, O, X, S, X
If you play it in Disc 1, you might get 1 Gil
If you play it in Disc 2 or 3 you might get an Elemental Materia or
Tifa's LV 4 Limit Break (Final Heaven)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

ULTIMATE WEAPONS
This is a short list telling where to get all the best Weapons

Ultima Weapon - Cloud
This Weapon Can be found after defeating Ultimate Weapon

Missing Score - Barret
Bring Barret on the Raid to Midgar (Disc 2) and when you Climb the
Sister Ray, You'll find it in a green chest along the way
NOTE: If you don't bring Barret, the chest won't even be there

Premium Heart - Tifa
This can be found in Midgar, (Disc 2 or 3) after you've found the Sector
5 Key, (see Below for instructions on how to obtain the key) go to the
Wall Market. In the item shop with the Pink machine that shot at you
earlier, walk up to it and Push O, you'll get Tifa's Best weapon

Princess Guard - Aeris
This can Be found in the Temple of the Ancients in Room IIII (IV)

Limited Moon - Red XIII
This can be found in Disc 3, Bring Red to Cosmo Canyon and Talk to
Bugenhagen

Conformer - Yuffie
This can be found in the Crashed Gelnika Airplane.

HP Shout - Cait Sith
An easily overlooked weapon. Return to the Shinra Building during the
raid on Midgar near the end of disc 2 and search the lockers on the 64th
Floor. (You may have seen it before, but Cloud refuses to take it)

Death Penalty - Vincent
Another easily overlooked weapon. After you get the Submarine (or a
green, black, or Gold Chocobo) travel to a waterfall near a lake by
Gongaga, and with Vincent in your party, enter a secret cave behind the
falls. You'll meet Vincent's old Flame, Lucresia and learn more about
his past, return later to get Vincents LV4 Limit Break and The Death
Penalty.

Venus Gospel - Cid
This Weapon can be gotten anytime after the Rocket Huge Materia quest,
return to Rocket town and talk to the Old man who gave you the Yoshiyuki
(See below) keep talking to him and eventually, He'll give you Cid's
Best Weapon.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

LEVEL 4 LIMIT BREAKS
This is probably common knowledge, but you need to have learned all the
other limit breaks before learning these, this is a short list telling
how to get them:

Omnislash - Cloud
Win 32000 Battle Points in one trip (disc 2 or 3) at Battle Square in
the Gold Saucer and buy this.
Note: You can also get Omnislash in Disc 1, but it costs 51200 BP!!!!

Catastrophe - Barret
After the North Corel Huge Materia quest (Win or lose, it doesn't
matter) talk to the woman in the house near the Inn to receive
Catastrophe

Final Heaven - Tifa
Found by playing the right notes on Tifa's Piano (Disc 2 or 3)
(See piano chart above)

Great Gospel - Aeris
In Disc 2 or 3 getting this is a Cinch, but by that time, Aeris is
already dead!!! So, I'll tell you how to get it in disc 1: After getting
the Buggy, Return to Costa Del Sol and Drive the Buggy INTO town, then,
talk to a man on the docks, and, for 100 Gil, He'll let you ride back to
Junon. Leave and You'll see you still have the Buggy. Drive it across a
lake to the Northwest of town and talk to the man inside and he'll tell
you how many times you fought. If the last 2 digits of that number (of
battles fought) match up (EX. 255, 466 ETC.) He might give you a Key
item called "Mythril" (if he gives you a Bolt ring, just try again till
he gives you Mythril) Bring the Mythril to the man who lives in the
House to the North of Gongaga town, and he'll offer you one of 2 boxes,
The big one by the bed has a Gold Armlet in it and the Little one
upstairs has Aeris' LV 4 Limit, Great Gospel, Inside it!!!! (Whew)

Cosmo Memory - Red XIII
Found after defeating Lost Number in the Shinra Mansion after opening
the safe (See above for instructions on opening the safe)

All Creation - Yuffie
Won after Defeating Godo at the Top of the Wutai Pagoda

Chaos - Vincent
