Chapter 8 - Collectible Details

Seven Wonders Expert trophy
When you arrive in Nibelheim you can start this quest by talking to a boy next to the waterwheel outside (near the house). You will have to find 7 wonders hidden in Nibelheim in order; 6 during this chapter, and 1 during the next one. This guide will name them all in order. Make sure not to talk to Sephiroth upstairs in the Inn in order not to advance the story - you can do couple of wonders before that moment.

Seven Wonders #1 & DMW Image: Phoenix (Rebirth Flame)
When you arrive in Nibelheim where you’re supposed to talk to Sephiroth, talk to the boy on the right side to start looking for the Wonders, then interact with the water tower just next to you. Report back to the boy to get hints for the second wonder. If you by any chance triggered a scene where Sephiroth enters Inn, don't worry.

Mail #52: Cloud – I wanted to tell you
You will get it automatically after entering the Inn.

Seven Wonders #2 & 2000 Gil
After the boy gives you another hint, go upstairs in the Inn (don't talk to Sephiroth to advance the story), and look at the painting of the chair. The chair will be with or without a person on it. If you go downstairs and back up, it will change. Inspect both times, then keep going down/up the stairs until you see a person going up. Follow him to confront him at the painting. Report back to the boy to get hints for the next wonder.

Seven Wonders #3 & Gold Shard
Head north to Nibelheim Outskirts, then to Mt. Nibel Trail (up the stairs from the village square, then east). Follow the path and go left when you see 3 kids and a branching path. At the end of this path you will encounter 3 Bomb enemies. Kill them all before they explode to get the "Gold Shard" as a reward. Blizzara is good against them. If some of the Bombs explode, just run back a bit and here again to fight again. Report back to the boy to get hints for your next wonder.

Mail #53: Reporter – Hot on the trail of the missing pod!
You will get it automatically as you approach Shinra Manor, and possibly enter.

Mail #54: Cissnei – When you come back
You will get it automatically as you approach Shinra Manor, and possibly enter.

Mail #55: Zack Fan Club – Insider information
You will get it automatically as you approach Shinra Manor, and possibly enter.

Seven Wonders #4 & Vital Slash (Mastered with ATK +15)
Head northwest to Nibelheim Outskirts, and then west into Shinra Manor. Your next wonder hint is to find the code for the safe. This is random every time, so you have to note that all 4 digits based on some puzzles in the 4 rooms.

The first digit can be solved by going to the room in the northeast upstairs. Peer through the keyhole. Count all the books not placed on the shelves to unravel the first digit. Count the ones on the floor, on the chair and the ones on the top of the bookcase. Add them all and that is your first digit.

For the second digit, head back downstairs and look through the keyhole of the eastern door, count the Funny Faces. This is a bit tricky, as some of these shows up only when you wait in the corner with your camera. Make sure to wait when you hit the both corners for a few seconds.

For the third digit, go upstairs and look through the western door, count the dumbapples (purple apples) and dumbapple cans. Both needs to be counted.

For the fourth and the last digit, head back downstairs and look through the western door, count the chairs. This is the easiest digit of them all.

Lastly, head upstairs into the room in the northwest and open the safe. Report back to the boy and get hints for the next wonder.

Seven Wonders #5
Head into Shinra Manor, Underground Cave. It can be entered from the top floor side room after some scenes. Defeat a Sahagin enemy to get a Coffin Key. As soon as you get of the elevator, you can run around this area before heading down the ladders until the enemy attacks you. Now, head down the ladder and enter the southeastern room. Use a key to open the right coffin. The rest of the coffins have enemies inside. Report back to the boy to get clue about the next wonder.

Seven Wonders #6 & ATK Up++
After story events in the Facility that is inside the Shinra Manor Underground Cave, Nibelheim will be on fire. Talk to the boy when you regain control and accept to save his mother. You have 1 minute, but it's so easy you'll be done i 15 seconds. Tilt your analogue stick Up, Right, Up, Right, Up (after this you will start ascending the stairs), Left, Up, Left, Down, Right, Down. Inspect with X, and return outside following the directions from the last to the first one. 

Mail #63: Cloud – Where are you!?
You will get it automatically as you go up Mt. Nibel – Trail.
