I always found Shou's curvy lasers to be her easiest attack, and everything else she throws at me wipes me out :(

Seriously, there should be a rule to how much lasers can bend.
I dunno why, but I find Shou easier than Youmu... except in Double Spoiler. I hated Shou in DS for some reason.

Many are saying how much Shou's curvy lasers are a bitch. I guess I'm one of those few that don't find problems with it.

Please explain your strategy for the last Shou card, the one where the lasers spin in opposite directions.

???

The last card doesn't have any moving lasers. It's just a bunch of lines that break apart and turn into glowing bullets.

Unless you mean the card before that. My strategy for that is very simple: Push X.

Also Zekira, try Shou on Lunatic.

That thing goes spin-spin-spin and then it heads at an awkward angle. No problem if I'm already at an area I won't be hit, but sometimes I forget to release focus and can't avoid it fast enough :/

Also liking Marisa A's option shot, but I always crash into a bullet due to her speed.

OK now I realize why I hate playing UFO...

...Stage 2 and 3 fairies. IMO their bullet patterns are more of annoying rather than challenging. I seriously don't think this is how Stage 2 and Stage 3 fairies should behave.

Once I get past Stage 3 I feel like I'm playing normally again though. Yeah, it usually also means I lose more lives in Stage 3 rather than Stage 4.

Green UFOs FTW! EAT SHORTWAVE, BITCHES. Now if only that spell lasted a liiiiiiiiiiitle bit longer...

green laser from Shou is stupid :3 here a timeout of this spell XD

Lol, I aim for Reds from stage 1-3 and then juggle between Greens and Reds. Usually fuck up and lose a life while doing so in stage 4/5.


EDIT: Tore apart MoF with Marisa's glitched shot just now. Shit that felt good. Not as good as when clearing IN, but still good.

Marisa's speed helps a LOT in this card. Too bad that speed kinda makes her a really bad choice to battle Murasa with.

Marisa-B's area-shot also helps A LOT in capturing this card. Given that you won't be on focus too much on this one, Marisa-B will be shooting in 4 directions behind her and 6 directions (?) in front of her. If you come in almost melee contact with Shou, then you're pretty much eating up her life. Too bad that cross moves its origin unlike Ran's laser.

Now I've tried the other characters this time. Taking a break from Marisa.

"...still slow as ever I see. I can't take this. I don't care how high your attack power is too."
Reimu B Comment:
"Flying cards everywhere yet again. Too bad you just can't get your ass fast enough for me to like you."
Sanae A Comment:
"Snakes on a Ship lol. Interesting shot type, and this speed is kinda OK. Too bad your focused speed is kinda a bit too fast..."
Sanae B Comment:
"Frog explosions! Kinda PoFV like, and I like it. Let's mess around with this more...
...Wait what, I seriously farmed 2 lives in Stage 1?
...2 more in Stage 2? Not even dying yet?!
...Oh god, I didn't die in Stage 3! O_O
...Stage 4! BOMB TIME HAHAHAHA BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
Stage 5! ...oh shit how am I going to fuck Shou >_>
Stage 6! ...no Byakuren NO I'm not as fast as Marisa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" *dies*

For some odd reason, I feel most comfortable playing as Sanae B instead of Marisa-A/B at the moment. Mainly because at least this time Stage 3 isn't such a threat anymore and I can actually get to Stage 6 comfortably with at least 3 lives remaining. If only there was a way I could use SanaeB on Stage 1-3 and Marisa-B on 4-6, I'd probably be a happy UFO player right now.

Actually, I kinda didn't expect SanaeB's bomb to be so powerful. First I casted it, I was like "...uh, is this going to be as useless as Patchouli's Five Seasons Bomb?", then later when it went BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM, I was like "OH FUCK THIS IS THE FOURTH MOST AWESOME SPELL CARD I HAVE EVER SEEN"

Actually Nazrin and Shou are not my Problem at loosing lives, the Problem is more the Stage D: BUT Stage 5 is one of the best Stage for Scoreing xP
Btw Shou's hardest Spell is her first Spellcard o_O

SanaeB is the best character in UFO, because when she Bombs, you can Supergraze ^^

Seriously, sometimes I find that the stages are harder than the bosses, since you can get attacked from many angles while the boss only attacks from at most 4 angles.
Zekira
Oh god, not again. Domino Death effect ate me up and made me rage.

I was going in Stage 4 with 8 lives. Yes, 8 lives. I was farming reds like crazy, letting them spill their bonuses before making them explode, and you know the jist. I was able to keep myself safe for the entire Stage 3, and only lost 1 life in Stage 4 fairies...

...and suddenly Murasa wants to crash the party by eating up the rest of my lives.

Shit the fuck, I have never had such a more outrageous run than this. Starting with the max lives, and at Murasa's timeout card I was already running at 0 lives.

The problem with Marisa-B is that her bomb pretty much does not do much damage on bosses. Furthermore, Marisa-B's singleshot power below max is insanely low, and Marisa-B's general power below 3.00 is so insignificant. Once my power goes down to less than 3, I think that's pretty much the end of my run then? That's what happened here, apparetly... >_<

Come on damn it I wanna at least 1CC Th12 a second time >_<

Kinema Kan is something like just a series of music videos portraying a story. I'm not sure what you call that.

Many who've been looking forward to it had a misconception of it being an animé. I'm not one of them I swear

Then Yukari came in and I died.
Yukari's patterns are nothing. Given the heaviness of the bullets, trying to dodge Alice's and Yuka's are more annoying

Heads up to anyone who goes on MoTK:

TSO is shutting down the site - for good this time. So, for those of you that go there (Doomsday), start backing things up. Seriously.

Relevant link: http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=5559.0

As for me, I'll start backing up the fanfics and the pictures, like the last time TSO shut the site down.
Zekira

Possibly April Fool's, but I'm backing up the Drake's Projects thread just in case.
Slain087
Crap, I can't get on anymore - I managed most of the Scarlet Library, but I have nothing in the Art Atelier. PM me either here or through YouTube if you want to see if I managed to archive the story you want.

EDIT: I don't think this is a joke. CMPC is gone, all the mods are back down to normal (though all the snowballs, bans, etc remain), and even the former mods are hard at work archiving everything.

EDIT2: Yup, gone. It's already gone 403 - Forbidden. *sigh*
Zekira
My eyes freaking hurt from trying Phantasm 20 times in a row at the moment.

But at least I'm proud to say that I've reached until Border of Life and Death! Just some more patience and I can feel the finish finally coming.

But Boundary of Humans and Youkai was a bitchy card though... just like when I first went into Kokkuri-san's Contract; deliberately lost 3 lives in a span of 20 seconds without my thumb being at Button3 to bomb, and then later when I'm stuck in the middle that's the time I actually don't die.

But after BoLaD though, I see there's still one more HP Bar. I'm kinda curious as to what Yukari will pull off at that last one. I thought BoLaD was her strongest card (aside from her IN Last Word)...?

EDIT: Oh and also, this probably also happened to me in that run:



I seriously cannot read Ran's pattern at that time. I got used to looking for where the white circle was...
UtsukimiJerry
i lol at you zekira. seriously
Zekira
The expression on Marisa's face was probably the same expression as I had and she had when I was doing the run a while ago. I seriously sweatdropped, remembering about the pic and EXACTLY this is what flashed in my mind the time I died on that card
Slain087
If you want to know, the last one past BoLaD is a survival card - in fact, it's most of her IN Last Word "Phantasm, Foam, Shadow". Just take out the waves not made of amulets and you have your card.
Doomsday
As for MoTK, That is clearly April fools anyway. TSO has too much going for it.
Not getting fooled this year, oh no
Slain087
Yeah, maybe. No notice (his last dump gave us at least a week), April 1, etc is suspicious, but we just can't take that chance, yanno?

If it turns out to be a fake, even if he didn't dump everything anyway, there'll be a lot of people pissed off. Either way, I'll check it out later today and tomorrow just in case.

God damn finally! The last game I needed to finish! Now I can say I 1CC'd all the Touhou games in a difficulty above Easy! (including 1-5)

I swear, Sakuya is much stronger than Remilia :|

http://replays.gensokyo.org/download.php?id=8199





So I tried out Extra... and I kinda thought it was really easy because of the really basic fairies (I mean really, they only fire straight :|)... then Patchouli came and ate my sparks as I was forced to take them out. Flandre slapped me hard on the first 2 HP Bars and bllllllllllllllllllll.

In DS news, Stage 12 is kicking my ass seven ways to Sunday. Not to mention the requirements to unlock the EX Stage is almost half of the 108 available stages - and I'll need to do even more to unlock Spoiler. I am so screwed.

I'm putting up replays of the DS scenes after I complete them (assuming I actually remember to save them), so look for them at my channel.

Again, try Lunatic. One of Remilia's Lunatic spells (Scarlet Meister) is pretty much considered the most difficult in the series.

So Siki decided to WoDhax me at the exact moment when I was sure she was gonna get hit already. I mean, I already had both Fairy and Witch spells thrown at her, boss attack was there and I just got an EX Item and I looked at the other screen and she was hugging the bottom wall, and she's pretty much surrounded by millions of stars up front.

...then wall of death comes in and fucks me instead.

Zekira
Is it just me...

...or in any difficulty below Hard in any game (barring PoFV, since Siki is probably the strongest Stage 6 Boss, being as haxy as Yukari), the Stage 5 boss is ALWAYS harder than the Stage 6 boss? Youmu just keeps raping me intensively, Sakuya abuses my un-memorization of the hitbox, Reisen just doesn't want you to go above hugging the bottom wall (which I really don't like doing), Sanae's stars are just a bit too big for Marisa's taste, Orin will deplete your patience and of course Shou will wrape you with curvy lasers. Stage 6 bosses on the other hand are too gentle >_>

EDIT: First time I used Reimu today. First 3 runs, I kept raging at how I'm missing 2136089512875 items on Stage 1, but eventually I was able to accept the fact that I'll NEVER going to be getting max power by the end of Stage 1, and proceeded. And thus:





I never expected to be getting a shitload of points compared to using Marisa. Maybe it's because of added memory this time as compared to my Marisa-A run where I had no idea what Yuyuko was going to throw at me. I'm also surprised that I got a sizable amount of Point Items; I was kinda expecting only bordering 1000 Point Items, given how Reimu has invisible chubbiness that refrains her from moving fast.
That said, I only need 3 more endings to finish my collection of TH07 endings. Now I need to go through the painful process of 1CC'ing using Reimu again.

On another note, some cards just seem to be really annoying to capture, and is turning out harder than comapred to if I use Marisa. Guarneri Gel Desu and Prism Concerto being the most annoying; I could swear these cards were way easier when I tried it... but then I remembered Reimu's invisible fat. Great.

Another thing to note is that I probably was using Focus less than 50% of the time I was using focus on Marisa. End result then is that I'm getting Borders quicker than Hatate can say Hatatatatatatate, contributing to even more points...

Cyclone
Do it again. This time use Reimu B. Notice how much stronger she is, and notice how many MORE borders you'll get than with reimu A. Unfocused shooting with Reimu B is 2nd best in terms of how much cherry you can get. Marisa A has the best. I also believe unfocused shooting with Reimu B is the strongest shot in the game. (assuming you're practically touching the boss)

Just looking at the shot kinda gives it away, yes?

Cyclone wrote:

Out of curiosity, does it follow that stronger shot = more cherry? I find Marisa-A's melee unfocused power to be really really insanely high, but I don't know about Reimu-B yet (since I never obviously used it yet), but judging from the shot I think the boss also needs to be large enough to get all the shots in? (...is it just me or Stage 2 Chen is actually smaller than Extra Chen in terms of hitbox? Marisa-A's green shots at melee range never completely enclose Stage 2 Chen while it does on Extra Chen)

Hm, that kinda appeals to me. I'll try it out.

Randy96 wrote:

Err... I never thought about that :?

I dodge bullets for the sake of getting in line with the boss :o

Other than that, I found some quick parts on some games that have improved my dodging greatly. For one, the time that I felt that I was FINALLY improving was through IN's Spell Practice. In particular, I grinded Kaguya's cards on Normal until I was sure I could clear them in a row, but most notably trying to capture Impossible Request 「Dragon's Necklace」 was the card that trained me so much (I think I still have less than 5% capture rate on that card).

Also, you probably already know, but you really have to be a master of the hit box. Effective and efficient dodging is done by looking at the bullets, not at the character. In Phantasm, I normally look on the top-half of the screen even if I'm hugging the bottom wall except for certain spellcards. One card that kinda requires you to do this is Nitori's first card. The bullets are so bright that it's kinda painful having to look at one spot, plus you have to look at Nitori for where she's shooting those balls anyway.
UtsukimiJerry
well i do look at the top half of the screen. trying to look at the bullet patterns and then i quickly look back on my character. slowly dodging those bullets.

one thing more annoying than fast bullets are slow bullets. those bullets took me off guard and i can't even deathbomb through it
Zekira
If you can't deathbomb through it then just bomb through it lol. I learned not to be bombshy and then that was the time I finally was able to 1CC some stuff.

Also, IMO fast bullets and slow bullets don't make a difference much, but rather, it's how they combine to form WTFWALLS just like Lyrica does.

Oh and another thing. I don't know if it will help, but watch the replay of others. It might just boost your confidence when you know ways to dodge some other patterns. Not to be bragging or anything but here's my latest Normal run on PCB lol: http://replays.gensokyo.org/download.php?id=8286

And, um.

i tried playing EoSD on normal. i died at patchouli. her spell cards are quite hard.

YOUMU, YOU... >_<

She completely ruined my ReimuB run.

I could swear, she's by far the Stage 5 boss which makes me rage all the time.





Three deaths were because Youmu had to just be a bitch again. It's no surprise that it's actually the first death I got (not including unintentional border breaks). I swear I could've scored way higher if I didn't keep chain-deathing on Stage 5 and Stage 6... >_>

Youmu's Spellcards are okay, but her attacks sucks extermly <.< i was able to get from every spell at least 1 spellbonus. in Stage 6 Youmu's Spellcards is stupid -_- attack is easier.

Yuyuko! The first spell is not hard, but starts getting confusing, if she didn't die over 20~30 secs.
Her second spell starts to sucks. Even the bullets are big, which is aiming at you, it sucks really x_x
Her Third spell is hard too, but only if you went up.
Her fourth spell is really the easiest spell from her o_o I mean... lol? xD
The long spell... omg, it kicks me always when she dies at the same time <.<
Surviving spell? Easy with Reimu. With the others? not really...

also. is there a new retexture pack for EoSD? i've seen some of you guys taking screenshots in EoSD and it looks good. could it possibly be a new retexture pack?

I don't know by 'new', but I do have the retexture pack, but I'm not using it since it's making Marisa seem too fast and the movement just seems too weird...
