Sorry and pardon me for my mistake. This is actually my first time modding so I'm unfamiliar with how the format works.
I've edited the post. I'm still unsure if this is okay, so if there's anything wrong feel free to tell me so that I can edit it. I guess it will take quite awhile for me to learn. Hopefully this post would be helpful to you :X
Modded diff: Hard
General comments:
-Suggest including LNs to represent sounds of prominent background instruments. LNs to represent vocals as well. This helps to make the beatmap more varied and not so much focused on the drum beats.
-Change OD and Hp Drain to 7.5(?) so that it is not similar to NM diff.
-Can consider modifiying the slider velocity multiplier (see right below)
00:01:622 (1622|2) - Move to col 4
00:01:703 - Add note at col 3
00:01:784 (1784|0) - Move to col 4
00:01:866 - Add note at col 1
Comments: There's a background instrument with its sound increasing in pitch; i think this pattern would fit in better.
00:03:244 (3244|2) - Move to col 2
00:03:244 - Add LN at col 3, ends at 00:04:379
Comments: Adding LN for the vocals part at 00:03:244 together with the background instrument sound would be more interesting.
00:03:730 (3730|1) - Move to col 1; add note at col 4 for cymbal beat
00:04:055 (4055|0) - Move to col 4
00:04:379 (4379|2) - Move to col 2; add note at col 1 for cymbal beat
Comments: Shift notes to diff col to make way for LN.
00:04:541 (4541|3) - LN should end at 00:05:028
00:05:028 - Add LN, ends at 00:05:190

00:06:325 - Add note at col 4
00:06:487 (6487|0,6487|1,6487|3) - Col 1 & 3 change to
LN, col 4 remove note.
Comments: I think LNs here would be more fitting.
00:06:811 (6811|0) - Remove note
00:06:892 (6892|1) - Remove note
00:06:974 (6974|2) - Move to col 2
00:07:055, 00:07:136, 00:07:217 - Add note here
Comments: Can try out this pattern; the flow seems smoother to me this way.
00:09:730 (9730|1) - LN ends at 00:10:541 to follow vocal part.
00:10:541 - Add LN here to follow vocal part, ends at 00:11:838
00:11:189 (11189|2) - LN should end at 00:11:838, makes the flow of the song more complete.
00:13:460 (13460|2) - Change to LN, ends at 00:13:622
00:13:622 (13622|0) - LN extend; ends at 00:14:433

Comments: LN to follow electric guitar sound.
00:19:541 - Add a note
00:19:703 - Add a note
00:19:784 (19784|1,19784|3) - Remove either one of the notes
00:19:865 - Add a note
00:19:946 (19946|2,19946|3) - Remove either one of the notes
00:20:027 - Add a note
Comments: Fast keyboard notes being played in the song
from 00:19:460 to 00:20:108, I think it is more prominent than the drum beats for this part.
00:22:703 - Add LN at col 3.
Comments: This part of the song is still quite loud so 2 notes at this timing point would be better.
00:31:784 (31784|3) - LN should end at 00:32:929 to complement the keyboard notes being played till there.
00:32:838 - Add note here as the keyboard note is still being played here.
00:44:270 (44270|1) - Move to col 1, change to LN, ends at 00:44:433
00:44:433 (44433|1) - Change to LN, ends at 00:44:595
00:44:595 (44595|2) - Change to LN, ends at 00:44:757
Comments: Prominent keyboard notes increasing one pitch at a time, LN can represent those notes.
00:46:540 Add note at col 4, so pattern will be consistent to 00:48:486
00:46:756 (46756|3) - Remove note to follow pattern at 00:48:702
00:49:134 - Add note at col 4 to follow pattern of 00:48:810 and since the vocal part is being sung here as well, this part should be quite loud.
00:54:161 - Add LN at col 4, ends at 00:54:323
00:54:323 - Add LN at col 1, ends at 00:54:485

01:10:863 (70863|0) - Shorten LN so that it ends at 01:11:025
Comments: LN to represent vocal part of the song. Mostly shifting of notes so that LN can be put in place. In my opinion, without LNs in the chorus the
beatmap becomes repetitive and easy to figure out. Therefore, I would like to suggest the inclusion of LNs to make this difficulty more varied and less
predictable. The LNs are not continously joined together so that the patterns are not so straightforward.
01:11:188 (71188|3) - Change to LN, ends at 01:11:350
01:11:350 (71350|3) - Move to col 2 to make way for LN

01:11:998 (71998|3) - Change to LN, ends at 01:12:161

01:13:458 (73458|1) - Change to LN, ends at 01:13:782
Comments: LNs for vocals as well.
01:13:782 (72782|3) - Change to LN, ends at 01:13:863
01:13:944 (73944|3) - Change to LN, ends at 01:14:025
01:14:106 (74106|1) - Move to col 4, change to LN, ends at 01:14:188
Comments: Vocal part repeated the same pitch for this part, would be nice to represent it using LN for the same column 3x.

01:15:404 (75404|1) - Change to LN, ends at 01:15:566
01:16:052 (76052|2) - Extend until 01:17:350 so that it follows to the point where the vocals sound fade away
01:16:539 (76539|2) - Move to col 2
01:16:701 (76701|1) - Move to col 1
01:16:863 (76863|0) - Move to col 2
01:17:025 (77025|2) - Move to col 1
01:17:350 (77350|2) - Move to col 2
Comments: As above
01:22:539 (82539|0) - Move to col 4
01:22:863 (82863|1) - Move to col 1, add 1 new LN at col 4, LN ends at 01:23:025
01:23:025 (83025|3) - Move to col 3, change to LN, ends at 01:23:188
01:23:106 (83106|2) - Remove note
01:23:188 (83188|0,83188|1) - Change both to LN, move the one in col 2 to col 4, LN ends at 01:23:350
01:23:350 (83350|2,83350|3) - Remove the one in col 4, move the one in col 3 to col 2, shorten the LN so that it ends at 01:23:512
01:23:512 - Add 2 LNs in col 3 and col 4, ends at 01:23:674
01:23:674 - Add LN at col 2, ends at 01:23:836
01:23:836 (83836|1) - Move to col 3 to make way for LN
Comments: There's a background sound of the same note being played repeatedly; The long notes is to simulate this in the beatmap. (8 times col 4 from
01:21:242 to 01:23:593;5 times col 1 from 01:23:593 to 01:25:256.) Long notes for another background instrument sound from 01:22:701-01:23:838.
01:25:458 (85458|1,85458|2,85458|3) - Remove col 4 note; change col 2 note to a LN that ends at 01:26:269; move col 3 LN to col 1.
01:25:944 (85944|0,85944|1) - Move to col 3 and 4
01:26:106 (86106|0,86106|1) - Move to col 3 and 4
01:26:350 - Add a note at col 4
01:26:390 - Add a note at col 3
01:26:431 (86431|0) - Change to LN, end at 01:29:025
01:26:431 (86431|3)
Comments: I think that the LN should be the focus here as the sound for the electric guitar is sustained. 1/8 notes as there is a riff down the electric guitar at the end. Makes the ending more interesting as well.
I suggest modifiying the slider velocity multiplier at these areas so that the beatmap can be more interesting; it fits the flow of the song as well:
00:20:108 - x1.5
00:20:595 - x0.1
00:20:676 - x1.0
00:20:919 - x0.1
00:21:000 - x1.0
00:21:243 - x0.1

00:47:513 - x1.0
00:48:161 - x0.75
00:49:459 - x1.0
I actually uploaded my edit of the HD diff of this beatmap on mediafire. I'm not sure if it will help at all since it's not part of modding, but I'll post the link anyways so feel free to use it anyhow.
