Crack the Code: How to Obtain the Magic Pot Summon in FF7

By admin

The Magic Pot is a recurring enemy in the Final Fantasy series, specifically Final Fantasy VII. It is a unique enemy that has a peculiar behavior and offers players an interesting challenge. In the game, the Magic Pot often appears in the Northern Crater or Gelnika areas and can be encountered during battles. The main idea regarding the Magic Pot in Final Fantasy VII is its ability to ask for items instead of fighting. When the Magic Pot appears in battle, it will request a specific item from the player, which can range from rare items to common ones. If the player gives the Magic Pot the requested item, it will reward them with valuable amounts of EXP, AP, or Gil.



Thread: god damn Magic pot!

Magic pots are invulnerable to physical AND magical attacks (every kind of damage, therefore) until they receive an elixir. they are immune to Death. The ONLY thing that could actually kill a magic pot without giving it an elixir would be Cait Sith's "Game Over" Limit Break. It ignores status defense and inflicts Death, so it will always kill everything.

By the way, there are only two actions a magic pot can use, and they are Steal (Real Name: Gimme!) and Escape (Real Name: (Report)). "Gimme!" is used with a 25% chance (1/4) as a counter, same with "(Report)", but that only has a 6.25% chance (1/16), but both are only used, if the pot hasn't received an Elixir yet. Magic pots are probably the best enemies to use for the "Super W-Item Trick". And you will always receive a turbo ether, 8000 EXP, 1000 AP and 8500 GIL from Magic Pots.

I hope that's enough of information on magic pots for now.

Absolutely. Once you learn of the W-Item duplicate item trick, Magic Pots go from being at the top of your "Most Hated Enemy" list to the top of your "Most Loved Enemy" list, right next to the Mover.

and make sure you don't hit them without elixir, they can steal your best weapons, even the ultima weapon if it isn't equipped.

You should have known how to kill them really, they cry out "gimme elixir!"

@seiferalmasy2: his question was actually, whether there is another way besides giving it an elixir^^

@others: i've got a feeling that you're confusing "W-Item Trick" with "Super W-Item Trick". With the latter you can duplicate any item that shows up in "Item"-Command including Mystile, Ultimate Weapon, XX Sources, Zeidrich, Tough Ring, .

I personally do not like the W-item trick. I think it is a lazy escape, and elixirs can be stolen from the master tonberry of the same place.

If the player gives the Magic Pot the requested item, it will reward them with valuable amounts of EXP, AP, or Gil. This unique behavior of the Magic Pot adds an extra layer of strategy to battles. Players must pay attention to the Magic Pot's request and decide whether they want to fulfill it or risk engaging in combat with it.

Explanation of Super W-Item Trick

Super W-Item Trick
first of all, there are actually 3 different types of Super W-Item Trick. The first one is the "Steal-Trick", the second the "Morph-Trick" and the third the "Be-Stolen-Trick". They all work with one fact: "When you use the first of the 2 items in W-Item and another item suddenly appears on its now empty slot - you must have only had it once - this will be the item that is going to be duplicated." While Steal and Morph tricks are quite easy to do, Be-Stolen trick is a real pain in the ass (and it's the only way to duplicate important things). To specify:

What is it good for: You can steal an item from an enemy - and instantly duplicate it, whether it is usable in-battle or not.
Requirements: W-Item and Steal materia, equipped to different chars. 1 of one in-battle-usable item, I suggest Potion. The enemy of whom you want to duplicate the stolen item encountered in-battle. And finally: 0 of the item you want to have duplicated - equipment count can be reduced to 0 from maximum of 8 by equipping.
What to do?
You'll have to do it quickly. Before battle, put the 1 Potion in your very first item slot. Now enter battle and find the enemy. Now order one char to steal from the enemy (best put him in Stop-status to prevent Steal from missing too often). While he does that, quickly open up W-Item menu with the second char and use the Potion on any person or enemy in the battle. If the char has stolen successfully and the Potion was used fast enough, the stolen item should now be in the exact slot where the Potion was. Now put the cursor on any other usable item. Now continue like normally in W-Item-Trick, press ACTION (Circle), then CANCEL (X) to receive the stolen item. Too bad you can't receive W-Item materia before fighting the Turks for the last time.

What is it good for: Same as Steal, but with Morph. Especially used for duplicating luck, defense and speed sources from Gelnika or Mideel.
-Everything else is exactly the same as the Steal-Trick. It won't work with enemies which are alone in the battle, as the battle ends when morphing them.

The most complicated of those, I wouldn't have noticed without help.
What is it good for: Duplicating ANY item that can be seen in item menu!
Requirements: W-Item-Materia and 1 of an item usable in-battle, preferably Potion again. And finally: Only ONE of the duplicated item in the item menu - the count of equipment can be reduced up to 8 by equipping.
What to do?
Well, this is mostly based on luck. First, put Potion in the first item slot, then encounter -TWO- Magic Pots. You can also encounter thieves, but magic pots are the best enemies for this. First, hit one of the pots until he steals an item from you - you'll have to be a bit lucky as he can also escape from battle instead. When he did, the stolen item should now be removed from the item list. if so, give the pot an elixir. If you're sure that you will kill the pot with the next attack, attack him. At the same time, use the Potion on anyone in the battle. What will happen? You will get the stolen item back - and it's on the potion's slot. You know what to do, go and duplicate that item. (You need 2 pots since else, the battle would end after killing the one magic pot. Never touch the second pot during the process, though!)
The Cons of this: You will have to have extreme luck and patience to have the pot steal exactly the item you want him to, as it can be ANY item of the item list. I wonder. even tissue or masamune or the other unusable items? Second, as said, magic pot has also a 1/16 chance of escaping the battle when attacked before having got an elixir. The odds are very low, but it will probably happen some times before he steals the item you want him to. You better only let him steal 1 item per battle.

How to Get the Magic Pot DMW Summon

There are a few select enemies in Crisis Core that you can recruit as allies and add them to the DMW. One of the most significant enemies is the Magic Pot. On this page of IGN's Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion guide, we'll show you how to find and unlock the Magic Pot DMW summon. You'll need to in order to get the whole Genji Armor Set!

What is the Magic Pot?

The Magic Pot is an enemy you can add to the DMW to be summoned. When summoned during battle, the Magic Pot will essentially get you special loot and items via the newly acquired Item Mugger Limit Break but the quality of the item will depend on the level you get in the DMW.

Limit Break Level 1: Libra, Graviga, Drain, Curaga

advertisement

Limit Break Level 2: Iron Bangle, Titanium Bangle, Carbon Bangle, Platinum Bangle.

Limit Break Level 3: Kaiser Knuckles, Shinra Beta+, Royal Crown, Crystal Orb

Limit Break Level 4: Elixir (x5,) Elixir (x10) Phoenix Down (x1) Phoenix Down (x3).

Limit Break Level 5: Ribbon, Gold Rolling Pin (x1), Gold Rolling Pin (x3), Gold Rolling Pin (x5)

How to Get the Magic Pot

To find the Magic Pot, you'll first need to clear a few specific missions that will unlock another mission that will give you access to the Magic Pot.

As early as Chapter 2, complete Mission 6-1-5 and defeat the Tonberry to unlock Mission 10-2-1. Clear both Mission 10-2-1 and 10-2-2. Before beginning Mission 10-2-3, be sure to have the following Materia equipped, as you'll need them during your encounter with the Magic Pot:

  • Fira Materia
  • Jump Materia
  • Gravity Materia
  • Assault Twister Materia

During Mission 10-2-3, don't bother to try and fight the Tonberries. Instead, run away from them and wander the area until the Magic Pot spawns. When it finally spawns, do not fight it. It will then ask you to use the 4 materia listed above in a specific order. Once you've done this, the Magic Pot will be pleased, disappear and be added to the DMW.

Fulfilling the request often leads to a more advantageous outcome, as the rewards offered by the Magic Pot can greatly benefit the player's party. However, there is a catch to this mechanic. If the player fails to give the Magic Pot the requested item or gives it an incorrect one, the Magic Pot will counterattack with an incredibly powerful attack called "L4 Suicide." This attack can instantly KO party members, making it a risky move to ignore or disrespect its request. Overall, the Magic Pot in Final Fantasy VII is a unique and memorable enemy that offers players a choice between fighting or fulfilling its request. It adds an extra layer of strategy to battles and rewards players who pay attention and provide the requested item. However, failing to fulfill the request can result in a powerful counterattack, making it a risky decision..
