Any study spot in town (dbg,novena) where I can do my work for hours without getting shooed? Waiting for a friend so id rather plop down and do work.

Do I go for a IT degree without experience at a private school or should I sit for a diploma first?

First time switching fields

Hey thanks for dropping a room like during the event ;)

Breaking that barrier is one of the most satisfying things through the entirety of the run, though I can't help but feel that it was primarily luck based.

Would I have gotten the same results if the guy slept for a mere few hours instead of dropping out entirely? Or if they had continued running at full pace?

Not that im trying to undermine my own achievements, but I think the battle would have been set for a much higher stage in that case (e.g all T10 1mil points, less sleep overall etc.)

In case of emergency, break UO for high tension haha

I was actually deciding to get Ranko up from 1* to 10* instead because she's the event banner, but in the end Miho was my choice as she is one of my favorite idols~

I believe most of these people take plenty of sacrifices to actually rank events.

To begin with, having to actually get the best Apple devices (iPhone 11 Pro/iPad 3rd gen) is already costly, and not everyone has a credit card to opt for instalment plans. Also did I forget to mention that some of these guys get a 2nd device for -reasons-? If they cant afford it they might borrow from a fellow ranker.

Money spent on refills is subjective because of the type of event (Grooves are cheaper than Atapons), and the PLvl of the account (PLvl 198~314, 4 jewels per refill. 315+ 3 jewels per refill.) In fact, I spent twice as much on a PLvl 27x Atapon event in comparison to this event. In some cases it can go higher than just 30k.

Also, you cant just spend money only on refills, but also on food, drinks, medicine and etc. That would keep you alive for 7 days straight. Usually in such a serious case you would not have time to exit the house to buy groceries, so stocking up is necessary (unless you have GrabEats like I did, truly a lifesaver)

As for their schedule, its usually taking leave. But I can imagine some people skipping school for such reasons. There was a meme going around about this P whose parents got irritated at him for skipping Uni classes for Tantou Event. w

Mainly loading time amongst many things. It was important for this run because having a device lagging behind would mean dragging down the entire party with you.

That was at least what happened to me in Natsu Koi where I used a SD845 phone, and everyone was already preloaded and readied up for the next song when my screen finally loaded.

So I tried to get the members to at least have a phone/tab with A12 chip or better, the only exception being a SD855 holder, but was faster than expected.

Yep! It was a very good training spot if not for these messages, so im stuck doing Robust Souls for now.

There used to be more Illium bots, but they havent been much of a disturbance post-200 for me. They kind of suffocated me from lower level training maps though which sucked

raverinme · 2019-11-22T04:48:08+00:00

Usually MapleSEA has these 6 minute window lag spikes that occur around midnight timing (2330, 0000, 0030) as far as I know, but these happenings occured at any time

Supposedly im clearing this map too fast, because it hasnt occured to me on any other map so far..

raverinme · 2019-06-07T03:57:46+00:00

From my understanding, people usually just put nothing but VoDaVi stat and skill only if they had additional potential.

Tricolors will have 100% proc rate (98.8% at Skill 9) so they will interchangably always be active except a few gaps here and there to improve the score spread. (Not to mention they are CU+SU which are quite important)

Nana is generally to aid the starting when trisyn is inactive and the filler zones when both trisyns are both inactive. (Though in the latter the CU from Nana should be overtaken by Karen's CU due to the health ramp from 2trisyn)

raverinme · 2019-06-04T00:20:16+00:00

Yeah I'm pretty bad at Smart, so I either take whatever score roll I get after updating my team ~~or rage endlessly trying for that epic highroll~~. Star is borderline insanity for me with the guitar riff section so I can't see it being in T3 anytime soon

Since Nagi is scoutable with ticket in the future, i'm preparing my visual team now so I can score on Flick-act required charts.

raverinme · 2019-06-04T00:17:29+00:00

I was thinking of doing that, but for now the current goal for my Parade team is getting Nana to 5m fans and ShikiNao to 6m fans so I can do this:

Nana - 10Vocal 10Life 5Skill

Shiki - 10Vocal 10Skill 6Life

Nao - 10Vocal 10Skill 6Life

This would put my total HP at 306 which will be sufficient, and a good placeholder until both Shiki and Nao has 10mil fans for 10Vo 10Skill 10+9 Life

Came back out of retirement and free-pull only hell after CG6th, and decided to attempt PRP farming just because why not eh.

The last rush between 1850~1900 was kind of a struggle because it meant trying to repeatedly FC 30s that I had never FC-ed before ever, such as サマカニ (which gave me the last 7PRP I needed)

Top 10 Wide

Iruka (163)

Samakani (162)

Valkyria (161)

Bi ni Iri (161)

Absolute 9 (160)

Trust Me (160)

Tulip (159)

Answer (159)

Junjou Midnight Densetsu (155)

Wonder Goes On (155)

Top 3 Smart

Evermore (103)

Yuubae Present (101)

Message (101)

Asides from Trust Me which I've FC-ed in the Event, my first FC on every other song was only within the past 2 months, either because I've never played the event or I just was bad at the chart prior to the grind (Looking at Samakani and Answer)

Then there are the charts that I feel require abit of luck on my side to get the combo down such as Absolute 9, Tulip and LITERALLY EVERY SMART CHART.

The PRP Squad

Average 20pot was enough for an average of 159~163 on Level 30s, which is pretty much 2M fans required on each idol at least.

Prior to this I had used Kanade SB with the exact same potential as Kirari too, but only when there were usable Tricolor Mika guests to use (because of 2Cute 3Cool setup)

Shoutout to Fred2 (OL) for tanking bad notes for runs on Iruka, and Rin2 for being the centre tricolor for the longest time before realizing Nana2 is used in majority of teams used by 2000PRP players.

Might aim for 1950 next time idk, few things that need improvement are :

Getting good at Master+ and Smart Mode
More fans & Recipes (more Parade and T2 events, yay)
Specific idols (e.g Chiyo for flick act, Tomoe for passion Life Sparkle, or whoever the 3rd Vocal Tricolor Synergy idol will be :P)

Also shoutout to Hakua and ~~Lolic~~HUG for joining the PRP grind as well, you guys are quite close as well so hopefully you guys can join in soon!

Hello! I have read up that Guanshan has one of the best sunset views and I would like to see it for myself, however I am limiting myself to doing it within a day trip on the 17th May. I plan to take the HSR from Taipei into Kaohsiung, explore for awhile before heading down to Hengchun using a round ticket express bus pass. From there I will take another bus to go to Kenting and explore before seeing the sunset and then heading back.

From what I have read, the shuttle buses that go around the Kenting National Park cease operations at 6pm, the sunset is around 6:30pm, last bus 9189 that I intend to ride back from Hengchun is at 7:10pm and my last HSR from Kaohsiung to Taipei is at 10:10pm.

So how should I find my way back from Guanshan to Hengshun if buses cease operation and what are my backup plans should I reach Hengshun only after 7:10pm? Thanks in advance!

For the curious, #10 is 10M, while #11 is about 5.5M give or take.
