The Handmade Necklace grants access to the hideout, so you can now come and go as you please.

Head over to Oates, who will present you with the Handmade Necklace as thanks for rescuing his friends. Continue up the slope and sidle through the gap, then cross the bridge.īefore you reach the next ladder, you’ll be ambushed by Hedgehog Pies, so clear them out quickly, then proceed up the next ladder, through the abandoned building, and around the corner to the left and Cloud will have another vision.Īfter the cutscene ends, continue on and duck under the gap in the fence to reach the children’s hideout. You’ll be ambushed by a single Smogger after climbing the ladder, so take it out, then move away before it self-destructs. The Smoggers can deal heavy damage with the red explosive areas they create, and they can cast Silence, Poison, and Berserk, so use items or the Cleansing Materia to stay on top of ailments, and abuse Thunder while standing on the Arcane Ward to make quick work of them.Īfter the fight, approach the ledge by the river and Cloud will jump over the save the two children.Īfter returning the children to dry land, return to the ladder and climb it as you make your way back to the slums. After those are defeated, there will be two Smoggers at once. The Arcane Ward causes each spell cast while standing in it to happen twice, meaning you can save MP and hit/heal harder by casting Thunder and Cure instead of Thundara or Cura.Īfter you take out the first group, another wave of Hedgehog Pies will appear. Have Aerith cast an Arcane Ward down in an area where there is plenty of room to move.

They are weak to Lightning, so abuse Thunder to Stagger it quickly. In the next area, you’ll encounter a new enemy the Smogger. The ramp to the left has some Shinra boxes, and the stairs on the right lead to a locked gate with a golden dragon on it, so take the path straight forward to unlock the gate and proceed. Jump across the tiny gap to the left to find a chest with an Ether, then return and take the path forward. As you enter the next small clearing, you’ll need to take out several Gorgers and a Hedgehog Pie, then duck through the rubble on the right. Aerith will call your attention to the view, so drink it in, then continue to follow the path to the left. Head left at the top of the ladder, then follow the path to the left as it winds around and up. Head right to hop up and hang from the rails and make your way to the platform on the right, where you’ll find a chest with a Caliginous Bracelet. Head right at the top of the ladder, then head down the stairs and up the ladder.
