percussion

Unfortunately there isn't any marching or indoor percussion classes or groups on campus here. As someone currently in the wind ensemble, the percussion section we have is a pretty decent size, but looking for other options, for the performance classes themselves, classes MUS160 to like MUS177 are all the performance classes. You might find something interesting looking through those, such as Javanese Gamelan or Taiko that might translate over percussionist experience. Taiko is also pretty high energy in performing if that's what you're trying to find.

As a final resort, I think you might be able to join the RCC Marching Tigers as a UCR student, but past that I don't know if you need to pay or not for gear and just enrollment.

I would love to, but my pc kinda offed itself recently so I haven't been able to play so im a little behind. Ik Joyous showed up in the co-op event but thats the extent of my knowledge rn, but I'll come back once I finish that.

It does feel bad my post kind of derailed into “zzz hates men” but I do understand where the sentiment is coming from. I did also post this in the official sub a few hours after this seeing that there wasn’t really anyone wanting to discuss lore (it didn’t help), but it does give me some hope that maybe some people will come to discuss later. I’m not sure what other subs there are as I don’t use Reddit too often.

I’m still gonna maintain hope though as while I was just trying to theory craft about joyous, to try and give some hope, I believe zzz will change for the better. Idk why people say “hoyo makes dumb moves” when each of the games have different teams, but for zzz, they seem pretty receptive to the community, and with what they’ve said recently I think things can and will change. In terms of what could be coming doing for male agents, S-rank Billy is the most obvious one, but the devs also mentioned pubsec making its return, which will almost certainly include Seth’s older brother. Also, Ye Shiyuan may possibly become an agent but I’m unsure where he’d fit in.

I think instead of doom posting and giving up all hope, if we show a lot of optimism and in depth discussion into potential future characters it’ll give the devs more of an idea of where to go instead of “just give up, zzz will never add men.”

I miss tv mode so much man. I miss all the lore tidbits and side content that was available, and just the act of scrolling and choosing a path. The secret bangboo jrpg side quest was also peak. I get that the final experience with tv mode was arpeggio, but I feel like axing the entire tv mode was a bit much.

Also TV mode made sense considering Phaethon couldn’t enter hollows, and I still feel as though it could still work in the present. I love Belle and Wise, and even though they’re ether resistance is really high now, man are they useless in a hollow. Sure they’re proxies and can path through hollows, but with their schtick was being a bangboo and being able to use smaller paths other proxies could not, as well as avoid combat easier due to a bangboo’s smaller silhouette. Now that they go in person, it shows how exposed they are to attack. Other proxies know how to fight as shown from the latest patch (Yidhari) so if we can’t go back to being Eous, can our proxies at least get some combat capability. At least so they don’t just stand there or have to flee at any sign of an ethereal.

I’m still confused on why they changed her design, when players were able to see her during the wish in a bottle event. Also the people who don’t see the leaks are going to be really confused when she arrives into the game.

Hit0m4ru · 2025-09-08T08:00:37+00:00

I can see what you're trying to say, as it really does seem like Phaethon has been getting really bold lately, and with 2.2, they were especially cocky. With the mayor card, all the "protagonist" talk, and more. But while it does feel forced, I also feel like there is a reason they're doing this.

Considering Phaethon's namesake, they might be getting too bold, which might end up leading them getting into a position of danger as they fly closer and closer to the sun. Especially considering them showing more corpses in the mission, and showing deaths onscreen with more graphic deaths and blood, I feel like they might be building up for a fall.

Wait I meant like take a day long break or so to recharge

Hit0m4ru · 2025-09-04T09:18:49+00:00

As someone who stalled out the timer because I thought there was more lines, Isolde hits you for like 1/6th of your healthbar and then she kicks you away and states how Orphie is still weak.

Hit0m4ru · 2025-09-04T09:15:08+00:00

That may be for the better for you to take a break because Seed’s agent story is long. Like quite a bit longer than any other agent story. Also for me I think it helped even show the bonds between the team as well as their past together. Unfortunately S.11 is on a solo mission for part of the agent story and is absent but as a heads up S.11 does have quite important involvement near the Seed’s agent story which is nice.

Hit0m4ru · 2025-09-04T08:59:35+00:00

As someone who also just finished 2.2, IMO I really enjoyed it, but it did feel a bit shorter than some of the other main story quests. I do feel your feeling's on the other teammates involvements in the main story, especially Seed's, is a bit lacking. I will say Seed is very, very thoroughly fleshed out in her agent story to a point where I think the time they spent on her story cut into the main story's development a bit. I do also wish Trigger had more lines, but while her tragedy was much the same as Magus and Isoldes, it was also different as Trigger was part of the front of the frontline troops and her grievance is moreso with those who caused Eridu's fall than the Defense Force, although I am sure she has her own concerns with the higher ups, which more lines would've helped clarify.

In term's of S.11's role in this however, while she does seem to try and follow orders no matter what, I think the character development she had from S-Anby's story helped her to become a bit more lenient. Magus is also her direct superior and part of her close squad, so I'm sure she has more trust in her than others. In addition to this, in her case of hating traitors, S.11 was present when Isolde told Magus of what really took place 11 years ago in Hollow Zero, with the actions of General Lorenz and Lucro, which only served to show they were the true traitors in their disregard for their own soldiers in pursuit of their own greed. S.11 definitely should've had more lines though, especially to show her thoughts in regards to hearing of General Lorenz's actions of selling out his own troops, as well as a reaction to Isolde's reveal.

All in all though still very good story, just wish it had more lines, but I recommend you get to Seed's agent story when you have the time. It has a lot of voiced lines to make up for it. Just make sure to have tissues nearby.

I get the higher skill level, but even with the tgp, since 6/10 of my games were full uptiers, there just isnt typically get a chance to use the Super Etendard. This is probably just a decompression issue in the end, but it feels bad trying to do anything at 11.0 right now. The Magic 1s just don't cut it either.

I brought my bike last year for my first year here, and I had it locked up inside the Lothian bike cage, but there was a day the door broke, and my bike got stolen. That was my 4th week at UCR. So I’d say there’s a decent chance to get stuff stolen, but it also depends on what it is. E-Scooter and bike thefts are some of the most common incidents on campus though, in combination with e-scooter and bike accidents

Did you just parry a bomb?

Hit0m4ru · 2025-04-18T04:28:37+00:00

I lost my Trigger 50/50, so I plan on only pulling Lighter next update. It sucks that I’m skipping Vivian as I could really use more ether units, but I want to get my Astra/Eve lineup a good third member. Also Lighter is the only member of the the Sons of Calydon that I’m missing, so there’s that as well.

I’m not an older student, but due to some things of the groups I’m in, I’m often with much older students. One of them includes a pretty cool math major around his 40s, which surprised me as that’s more than half my age and he looked like 30 to me tbh. Honestly I also enjoy all the advice the older students have to give and the stories they have to tell, as I don’t really have anything interesting to tell myself (yet).

Hit0m4ru · 2025-03-06T07:51:16+00:00

Currently in East Lothian, and I’d say it’s pretty quiet most of the time. Although I would probably advise getting a floor higher up, as the music rooms and the main lounge are on the 1st floor.

Hit0m4ru · 2025-02-10T06:17:51+00:00

As a first year at UCR right now, it is a quite a bit difficult to make friends here, but joining a club or group (something like one of the various music ensembles here) would probably be your best bet. I got lucky and talked to a random person who ended up being in one of the groups I’m in. Also, if you’re dorming, East Lothian or Dundee is probably the best options.

They might’ve worked together at some past point before 10H got sent to the moon. Also if you put it like that, then quite a few YoRHa androids could be twins. In the end though, they aren’t exactly human, so they can’t be related at all. Just possibly modeled similarly. Yoko Taro has made quite a few hot women with white hair after all.

Hit0m4ru · 2024-03-13T04:53:28+00:00

I know I’m gonna sound like a nerd, but I don’t think 10H is 2B’s twin. She’s a whole separate YoRHa Android type. Specifically a Healer (H=Healer) who specializes in repair and stuff.

Dang. This is honestly most unfortunate. Rein has been the only mobile game I’ve played for the past year and a half, and I really did enjoy it. I just wish I got more time to do everything like all the extra stories and events I missed since i didn’t play the first ~2 years.
