well first time at shinra headquarters what do you do?

depends how much you want to fight. YOu'll fight more enemies i think on the way up when you bust in. You'll avoid a lot of the fighting when you take the stairs.... In any event, I think it ends u being the same though. There's no real matter as to which way you go. The game progresses either way.

<font color="4422BB"> i run up the stairs, get the elixer, run back down and fight. its only 8 floors to the elixer :D heh </font>

I always do what Purikah does. I can also come back later and get a nice weapon for RedXIII, just for the sake of Completenes.

first time, i went stairs, second time, busted in, third time, i claimed my pension and took the stair lift

Bust right in! I never use items anyways. Magic is all you need. It's all materia, baby. You also win loads of megaelixers from chocobo racing anyway. One elixer is nothing.:D

bust right in. even though it helps u date barret, its worth the battles.

I always bust right in because the first time I went up the stairs it took ages to get to the top and my hand, wrist and fingers absolutely nakered!

take the stairs cos its really funny listening to barret moan

Bus Right In, BABY! I liked fighting. WOO HOO FIGHTING!!!!

i took the stains the first time. its pretty funny

I took the stairs the first time, but Imo it took too long and such, so I busted right in all the other times I played the game and used shinra HQ to level up some bit and to have a limit break parade and level them up :)

I bust right in when you go back to midgar you can take the stairs to here him complaining

At first I didn't even now about the stairs:)

I would bust right in cuz this is more of a challenge then walking up 50 floors and it builds up ur level.

I say to Tifa that we'd better climb the stairs then bash through anyway. I get the elixir on disk 2.

Why take the stairs to get an elixer when u get infinte elixers with the W-item materia, and busting in is a good way to test ur skills. Should u fail u can always reload and take the stairs.

you can always go up the stairs to get the elixer go back down then go in the front door

Even though it's useless I always take the stairs. It's kind of a tradition of mine.

I take the stairs, just so I can see Barret complain about them.







You are nothing but a puppet

I take the stairs....Barrets complaining is pretty funny. I think I only busted in once.

my last game (I am not using any materia in that one ) I used the stairs so I did not have a lot of fights
