So today was dead, everyone is getting ready for the holidays after all. So my fellow gamer coworker and I got on the topic of FF7 and how items like Missing Score and Cosmo Memory are terribly located, and hopefully the remake will do them justice.

But in our boredom we went 1 by 1 and justified where all final weapons/limits should be located (for the plot of that character). And here’s our list thus far….

Cloud: Ultimate Weapon still rewarded for “beating” Ultimate Weapon, but he suggested you must Morph him. (I like it but fuck that’d be annoying if you don’t know morph Yuffie’s Conformer) OmniSlash leave as is or swap for Final Attack Materia.

Barret: Missing Score relocated to the chest that contains the Highwind. Justification, the Sunken Gelnika was transporting high power machinery, and it could be salvaged from the wreckage. Catastrophe we like that it’s linked to Corel, but feel it should be given by a more fitting NPC or acquired by revisit Dynes grave.

Tifa: Premium Heart TBD Final Heaven fine as is

Aerith: Princess Guard fine as is (though preferably at the start of the dungeon, as you essentially only have it for two notable fights) Great Gospel TBD

RedXIII: Limited Moon fine as is. Cosmo Memory relocated to the chest containing the Apocalypse sword. Justification, the achiest forest overlooks Cosmo Canyon and we both feel there’s no reason for it to be in the safe.

Cait Sith: HP Shout (rewarded) for taking the crew of the sub hostage, as Cloud has “built morale” with the Shinra Troops throughout the game, and accepts not all Shinra are evil. Limit-Give him 4 limits

Cid: Venus Gospel instead of being given to you, by the man who likes to look at the rocket, revisit Rocket Town after the rocket is launched, but talk to Cid‘s assistant Shera. Highwind given to Cid by talking to the crew of the Highwind after fighting Hojo. He even comments that there’s a lever that he doesn’t know what it does due to the modifications.

Yuffie: Conformer relocated to the ??? Cave, essentially that cave can be mistaken for a materia cave and is a more fitting location than the sunken airship. All Creation, swap the Pagoda Tower’s original reward of her limit and Leviathan summon, with the Leviathan Scales, then take scales to open the passage in Da-Chao Statue to get Leviathan Summon, then once mastered return to Yuffie’s father. Justification this better organizes her quest line and shows her how to replenish the material that her country is missing.

Vincent: Death Penalty swapped to the locker that contains the HP Shout. However the first time you find this locker Cloud says he doesn’t know the combination, if the player tries to use it, anyway, your party members stop him due to being there to save Aerith. Bringing Vincent with you during the assault on Midgard mission,detour to revisit the Shinra building, Vincent would says this is his old locker from when he was a Turk and tells you the combination. Then repeat safe mini game to get his final weapon from when he was a sniper for the turks. Chaos should be relocated to the chest that originally contained the Missing Score reason being Hojo is the main villain in Vincent quest line and this chest already has a gimmicky glitch where it doesn’t appear, unless Barret is in your party. Swap Barrett for Vincent and his related contents.
