How to unlock the Roundtable Destruction achievement in FINAL FANTASY VII - Definitive Guide

If you miss informations or if you vote negative pls leave a comment so i can improve the solution



There are two ways to obtain this Materia.

1. Defeat Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon to obtain a Gold Chocobo. Time Consuming

2. Breed a Gold Chocobo. In my opinion EXTREMELY Time Consuming.

I highly recommend to use the "cheats" in the game and defeat the weapons. You have to do this anyway for achievements.

First defeat Emerald Weapon to obtain the Master Summon Materia (all summons in one materia even those you don't have)

I used a team with Barret, Cid and Cloud all with level 4 Limit brakes.

Barrets 4th limit can you get in Old Corel after the train sequence later in the game.

Cids 4th limit can you get in the sunken Gelnika ship also later in the game.

Clouds 4th limit can be super time consuming. You have to battle in the battle square inside the Gold Saucer "on disc 3" and get 32.000 battle points to buy his limit. And here is the point what makes this also time consuming. You need 10GP (Gold Saucer points) to battle. For each battle you can get around 3000-10.000 Battle Points. And if fail a battle for this fight you get 0. There are many ways to obtain GP. The Easiest is to "buy" them. Sometimes there is a guy on this spot at the Gold Saucer.

If not just leave and come back again. Here you can buy up to 100GP vor 10.000Gil. I highly recommend to rack up 1000GP for 100 battles.

After you have enough GP you can go battle. The battle mechanics are more ore minor complex but what we do we use the "cheats". I used any weapon and any armor (no big differences) but what i recommend is a Ribbon as an accessory.

Up to this point you can have up to two ribbons.
One in the Temple of the Ancients: You reach a room with a giant Clock. Leave the Clock at 5 there is the ribbon.
The second one is in Gaea's Cliff: Here is a video for this ribbon
(Video Credit goes to LetsPlayGGs)

In the battle square you have to fight up to 8 enemies. For each consecutive win you get more BP (battle points). The more the higher ( wink ). From round 3000 up to 10.000. That means 4 to 11 battles if you never lose.
But here is what it makes time consuming. After every battle you have a slot mechanik with a debuff. Broken Weapon, Broken Armor, Broken Accessory, Broken Materia of any or all colors, Lvl Down, HP/MP Down and so on. If your accessory is broken its often, without better gear and Materia, impossible to win. Just play again and again up to you 32.000 Battle points. Buy the Omnislash and you are done.

After all this preparations, buy some HP+ Materia, but a maximum of 6 Materia in total for each character, in Cosmo Canion, to get 9999HP on each character. Also reach level 75+ in the north crater. See this solution.
Final Fantasy VIILiege of LevelingThe Liege of Leveling achievement in Final Fantasy VII worth 108 pointsReach Lv. 99 with one character


And then follow this video.


After the battle you obtain the Earth Harp item. This can be traded in Kalm to one Master Materia of all three types, Command, Magic and Summon.

Now take Cloud or what ever you are most comfortable with. And defeat Rubi Weapon in Gold Saucer dessert. Have cheats enabled HP to 9999 and use as Materia a Ultima or Comet Materia in a Combo Slot with Element Materia and the Master Summon Materia.

At the beginning Rubi "removes" 2 characters from the battle. Reload the save up to the point your character with the Master Materia stays in battle.

You can also make sure the Character with the Master Materia doesn't get removed by starting the Battle with the other 2 Characters dead. Make sure you don't have Cheats on when you start the Battle or else they will be revived, once in Battle you can reactivate the cheat.

Just spam Knights of the Round on Rubi till he is dead. Some times he spawns his claws. Kill them with a Knights of the Round as fast as possible!.

If you like you can buy the W-Summon Materia for 64.000BP in the Gold Saucer. This grants you the W-Summon (Double Summon) ability. It allows to summon another summon direkt after your first. You can then just double Summon Knights of the Round. If you summon Knights of the Round at first and as your second summon Hades there comes a handy effect that stops Rubi to cast his Ultima counter attack.

There are many many other good ways and strategies to finish this Super Boss. But nearly all of them are a lot more time consuming than the strategy in this guide.

After the fight you obtain the Desert Rose item. This can finally be changed to a Gold Chocobo also in Kalm. If you can't store your Chocobo (it will stay in the room) fly to the Chocobo Farm and rent some barns. Come back and take the Chocobo. The Chocobo Farm is East-Southeast of Kalm.

After all this stuff. Just walk to the "secret" island and take the Knights of the Round materia. Done!

here is a video of the Walk to the Island. (you don't need the highwind you can walk direct over the ocean to the island.

Hey my dude, great guides! im giving you +1 on all of them.

One thing though, for new comers could you add the info that Master Summon gives you access to summons you dont actually have yet? I had a derp moment and didnt realize that I could summon the Knights of the Round because I didnt actually pick it up.

yes you miss that you have to kill Emerald first to get the Master Summon Materia. This CONTAINS the KotR. You can also breed a Gold Chobo from scratch. Even with triple speed this cost more than 10Hrs of OUTGAME time smile Need more informations? Write me an PM

"At the beginning Rubi "removes" 2 characters from the battle. Reload the save up to the point your character with the Master Materia stays in battle. Just spam Knights of the Round on Rubi till he is dead. Some times he spawns his claws."

Enter the battle with both characters dead, he will spawn the claws pretty much straight away and won't kick out your other two characters.

I really disagree with this strategy, breeding the chocobos is a much better method and you lose the need for a lucky Ruby Weapon battle

This solution is technically correct though despite not specifically being about obtaining Knights of the Round. It still succeeds in explaining how to prep for the battles against both Emerald and Ruby weapon; defeating them will still net you the rewards required to obtain the relevant achievements. It's just written in a process of steps as a means to an end. The "battle enhancement mode" completely breaks this game and makes the Weapons ridiculously easy to defeat without much or any strategy at all. Click cn_RS = win button so long as you're leveled enough and have access to the game's best Limit Breaks and Materia.

Also yes, while LaneFace does now have a faster breeding guide for getting a Gold Chocobo in 30 minutes, it's actually not necessary at all unless you want Knights of the Round earlier. You can still easily complete all the game's achievements by simply defeating Emerald Weapon with Omnislash and Limit Break spam, obtaining the Master Summon Materia at Kalm, then spamming Knights of the Round from the Master Summon Materia to defeat Ruby Weapon. Omnislash spam is still even an option for Ruby. Either way, that will then reward you with a Gold Chocobo which will allow you to ultimately obtain the Knights of the Round Materia from the hidden cave at the northeast of the map. Overall the solution comes to this conclusion though it does seem to be overly pasted to other achievement solutions for the game.

Thanks to LaneFace With this video guide, you can get the gold chocobo as soon as you get the highwind and in about 20-30mins..Without the ridiculous grind of chocobo races and spending a billion dollars. I’ve done it throughout multiple platforms now 100% this game it’s worked every time!

Talk about a time saver, I remember the ps1 version back in the day. Think I spent 40 plus hours just racing chocobos and spending a billion dollars on greens. I see many guides around here still saying grind it out that way, figured I’d post what I found.

First things first, you're going to need a Gold Chocobo. You get one for defeating Ruby Weapon, but realistically, you're not going to beat Ruby without this materia, so you'll need to breed one.

Once you have the chocobo, head right up in the top right hand corner of the map and you'll find an island with the materia inside.

That's not going to give you the trophy for getting KOTR though?

Also, how are you going to realistically beat Emerald Weapon without KOTR?!

Obtaining the Knights of the Round Materia involves one of the most frustrating sidequests in Final Fantasy history. In order to obtain this Materia, you must breed a Gold Chocobo, and then use that Gold Chocobo to locate a cave on a hidden island in the northeastern part of the world map. Once inside the cave, the Knights of the Round Materia can be obtained.

Location of the hidden cave that contains the Knights of the Round Materia.

Location of the Knights of the Round Materia in the hidden cave.

Please refer to the Gold Chocobo Breeding Supplement Guide for information on how to breed a Gold Chocobo.

Alternatively, if you use God Mode and you are at a very high level (near or at level 99), you can face Ruby Weapon and defeat it using your most powerful Limit Breaks, which may take a long time due to Ruby Weapon's high defense, or by using the Knights of the Round from the Master Summon Materia obtained by trading in the Earth Harp that you acquire from defeating Emerald Weapon with the Kalm traveller. Once you defeat Ruby Weapon, you will obtain the Desert Rose, and will be able to trade it with the Kalm Traveler for a Gold Chocobo, which can then be used to obtain the Knights of the Round Materia without having to go through the trouble of breeding.

Knights of the Round is a materia hidden in a cave on an unmarked island in the NE section of the world map, and requires a Gold chocobo to reach. See here for a screenshot of the island's location.

Now, the trick to this achievement is obtaining a Gold chocobo. You can get one through a very lengthy breeding process, which is explained here. And I'm not exaggerating at all when I say it's lengthy. There are multiple specific steps that must be taken and it's easy to make a mistake.

Alternatively, you can also quickly obtain one by defeating Ruby Weapon (see "Ruby Render") which is trivialized a bit by the Battle Enhancement booster. Ruby will drop a Desert Rose which can be traded to the Kalm Traveler for a Gold chocobo. Normally you'd need the materia earned in this achievement to defeat Ruby Weapon in the first place, so this workaround using the Battle Enhancement booster will save you a big headache versus trying the breeding method.

Whichever way you do it, once you have the Gold chocobo, travel to the island mentioned above and grab the materia in the cave to unlock the achievement.

Can be found in the northwest of Round Island, not marked on the world map.
To obtain it you need a golden chocobo, which can be obtained by exchanging Desert Rose from the old man in Kalm. Desert Rose can be obtained by winning Ruby Weapon.

In the right/upper corner, on the very edge of the end of the map (mini map) on a small island inside a rock ring. You can ride up on a golden chocobo that you brought out yourself. The good thing about this method is that you can start bringing out the Golden one after Tifa has escaped from Fort Junon, and pumping characters are not needed. To do this you need:
1 at Chocobo Farm rent at least 4 chocobo stalls
2 equip the Chocobo Lure materia and move a little west of Midil, catch chocobos on the chocobo tracks and send them to the farm (maximum 4 chocobos at a time), until we catch a good chocobo. be sure to check the gender of the chocobo (male or female)
3 now we fly to the tracks south of the Golden Saucer, a little southeast of the end of the desert, there we catch a very good chocobo of the opposite sex to the one we already have
4 we fly north, behind the rocks north of Digger Village (where we were looking for Lunar Harp) there is the house of the Chocobo Sage, we buy 30-40 silkis green from him (don’t forget, along the way, pick up enemy skill matter from the chocobo’s stall) on the farm we feed them to both existing chocobos.
5 we fly to the Golden Saucer and take part in races on our chocobos, raising both ranks to B
6 we fly to small islands just south of the Kopatel Village, there we steal Carob Nut from a monster that looks like a dinosaur on 2 legs (you can immediately run around and get 3 pieces)
7 we fly to the farm (be sure to save) and crossbreed our chocobos using Carob Nut, you should get either a blue (runs in shallow water) or green (runs in the mountains) chocobo. remember the gender of the newborn. Now you can run around a little about your business, since adult chocobos need time to recover after giving birth. We also feed the newborn 20-25 Silkis green (expensive, of course, but it pays for itself, there is no alternative)
8 we fly again to the races and raise the adult chocobo rating to A, fly back to the farm, SAVE, and cross, again with Carob Nut, a chocobo of the opposite sex (male/female) and color (green/blue) to the previous newborn should appear. if it doesn’t work, reload the save and try again until victory
We also feed the new chocobo Silkis green, fly to the races and raise both young chocobos to rank A (the trick with holding during the race R1+L1+R2+L2 will help, it replenishes the chocobo’s endurance in the race)
10 we drive out the old chocobos from the stall, when the young ones are ready to mate, we save and mate them with Carob Nut, a black chocobo should appear (if not, we reboot and mate again), look at the gender of the black one.
11 we feed the black 20-25 Silkies green, collect possible goodies on the map, the black runs both in the mountains and in shallow waters, fly to the races and raise his rating to S, kill time until the black is ready to mate.
12 the most difficult thing is to fly to the southwestern end of the northern continent, just west of the Ice Village, where we went snowboarding, and catch a Wonderfull Chocobo of the opposite sex to the black one, when we catch it, feed it as much Silkies Green as possible and raise the rank in the races to S. after which we kick the green and blue out of the stall, save and pair the black with the magnificent using Zaeo nut (stolen from the goblins on the eastern island with the forest), you should get a Golden Chocobo! (if you win 10-15 rank S races with it, they will give you a bunch of goodies).
