PP stages, how I see it

Hello, a lot of people like myself want to rank up as fast as possible and here is what I've seen while ranking in this game:

Phase 1: Just starting out, playing whatever suits you or gets you to play more, looking for challenges.
Phase 2: Wanting to pass insane maps or certain ar=8-10 maps, reaching for the grinding phase.
Phase 3: I feel like people will do everything from this point differently, but I just
farmed ar=9 tv size maps and a few longer, improving aim, accuracy and streaming. This got me to around 2400pp.
Phase 4: "The jump" When I started out playing "easy" ar=8 +DT I ranked up soo fast which equals wanting to play more.. This will continue to about 3500pp.
Phase 5: I am personally here, this is where you try to get the HR (+HD?) scores 200-270pp or good nomod fc's, and practice everything HR can give you. This will of course like everything else help you in the future. Around here you might also pass maps like The Quick Brown Fox or certain hard unranked maps.
Phase 6; For the PP! At this point you're probably at 4200pp and you just do whatever you can to have fun, gain pp and improve.
The extreme ar=8 songs 270-310pp for PP, ar 10.3 pass for fun or some intense unranked maps most players can't pass.
Phase 7: Congrats you're probably within rank 100 getting top 50 scores on extremely difficult maps and your effort and retrying has paid off in whatever you feel or gain for it :)

This is my view on it, some people do it extremely different and some very similar. I could add more for the beginner phases but I feel like that is different from person to person. Last 2 I have no experience with so correct me if you'd like.

Hope this helps anyone in any way! :P

What about the nomods stages. :(

Where is the stage where you get a thrill when you wanna just fc songs that are challenging to you and get a kick from the nerves and adrenaline rush when you get to the final moments of the fc and dont give a chit about mods or rank?

Where's the stage where I'll have to schedule a visit to the doctor due to right hand pain?

I guess it's before the ar8+ dt stage for me.

well, according to this stage 6 is the only stage you're allowed to have fun




top50 is easy, if you're in the top 100 then i hope you're getting in the top 10 of "extremely difficult maps" because top50 on those hard maps isn't a feat at all when you're a double digit rank
but then again it really depends on the map

I'm between phase 6 & 7 by pp amount, but still struggling with phase 5...

phase 7 in my head
probably 4 in reality, although i still play quite a bit of nomod especially lately

I feel like I'm at semi phase two. All I want to do is develop a really fast, accurate reading and clicking speed.

This is for gaining PP though, inbetween here you will and can of course play whatever you feel like doing for fun.

I feel like FCing nomod maps doesn't give close to the same amount of PP as with mods, atleast not as "easy". It's more for fun or catching up with friends or w/e with easier maps that give smaller amounts of PP. ( I do this if you look at my top scores :) )
Also the TV-size phase is nomod though.

Once again, this is purely for PP. Everyone likes to play fun maps sometimes and they will. Everything is practice in this game :D
