Playing though FF7 right now and I vaguely remember people on /v/ saying that you should be careful with your Materia assignment, since using magic materia will lower strength and such.

But honestly taking a small hit to my physical damage to level up Ice to Ice2 or 3, plus adding it to all, seems way better than just autoattacking everything, it's the only AoE I've got besides Cloud's limit. So I've got every one of my party members stacked with Materia of all kinds in every slot.

But it just occurred to me that what you guys might have been talking about is magic type materia fucking with Str growths, so I'll end up with Cloud or Tifa not hitting hard late game. Is that right? Am I screwing myself over playing like this? Or is Materia just a stat change while equipped?

Also, is there any downsides to using sources as soon as I find them?

I'll give you a pity bump OP.

Just do whatever. It doesn't matter. I always equip as much materia as possible so it all gets leveled up. You'll still be able to finish the game no problem. The only thing you really need to look out for is missing a few enemy skills if you want 3 E. Skill materias with all the spells. Trine can only be learned from 2 bosses. The Materia Keeper and Goto. There are only 2 E. Skill materias available before the Materia Keeper, so Goto is your only optio for the third. He's at the top of the Wutai pagoda, so you'll have to put that quest off until you find your third E. Skill Materia. The other missable is Pandora's Box. It is only cast by the first Dragon Zombie you kill. After that, you're SOL. Dragon Zombies are located in the North Crater.

I don't usually bother with Blue Magic since it's just such a damn hassle. Is it actually worth bothering with?

If you want to experience everything in the game it's nice to see the full collection.

If you just want to beat the game and all the optional bosses then no; you don't need that stuff.

Materia really doesn't matter when it comes to influencing your stats, only your HP/MP. Only if you put on a ton of green materia at once will all those small 2% or 5% or whatever decreases to your HP noticeably stack.
Neither Materia nor using Sources affect the random rate at which your characters get stronger on levelup.

Blue Magic/Monster Skills are powerful as fuck. They blow normal magic out of the water.

related FF& question because i kinda sped through the game and wasnt big on researching materia

last speh fight, frog transform he does. Can I use transform on myself or team to turn them back? Im also getting real tried of 2 minute super nova cutscnes that make the fight 30+ mins everything try

FF is the easiest JRPG series after DQ and Persona, no need to ask questions on here

>>384428502
Shit's OP as fuck. Big Guard casts shell, protect, and haste on everybody. White Wind heals everybody equal to the caster's current HP. Beta is Fire 2.5 and you can get it as soon as you leave Midgar. Magic Hammer steals 100 MP from an enemy and gives it to you. Laser is Demi 2 earlier and cheaper. Aqualung in the only way to inflict Water damage other than Leviathan.

Casting Frog on a frog turns them back to normal. I don't remember if mini works the same or not.
