I'll get it eventually, but am in absolutely no hurry to play Fallout 4.  

[Magni Prime]

I picked up a copy of Witcher 3 for Christmas, but it is on my backlog for now.

Right now, Emerald and Ruby weapons are my priorities.  

[Magni Prime]

Well, thanks to some careful planning and prep, and the built-in cheats, both weapons are dead now. Wewt.

Ruby was so much easier with master materia on my side.  

[Magni Prime]

Using the Morph command on a specific enemy turns it into the "guidebook." Returning that to the Kalm Traveller gives you the underwater materia. That removes the 20 minute timer on your fight with Emerald Weapon. Defeating that green monstrosity gives you the "Earth Harp," which can be traded to the traveller for a Master Magic, Master Summon, and Master Command all at once.

Only one set, but without the detrimental effects to max hp and such, Cloud ended up a beast with all the kickass moves.  

[Magni Prime]

Yeah, killing Ruby gets you the Desert Rose item, which you can trade for a Gold Chocobo, allowing you to travel over the ocean and get the areas of the map that are inaccessible any other way. You can breed a series of chocobos to eventually get a Gold, but this circumvents that work.  

[Magni Prime]

Yeah, i didn' thave the patience for it this time. Just didn't want to breed the damn things.  

[Magni Prime]

I am in it for the story . . . so the diversion of raising fictional birds to ride over an ocean was never a big draw. However, the power payoff was great. When I destroyed Emerald, though, I no longer needed it.  

[Magni Prime]

FF VII is a perfect example. you do have to race a chocobo in the game once. However, it is not hard, and you are given all you need. Breeding them and raising a Golden one is not needed at all. The only real goal is getting the strongest summon in the game, of which is not needed in the slightest. It can make things far easier, but you can beat the game without such trinkets.
