Noobita, don't be so butthurt. This thread hasn't gone to shit yet.. you never know.

Sounds great idea. Here's a couple for ya.

HR challenges:
Full combo Silver Forest - Souon!! with 99.73% or better.
Notes/Tips-
~The map is 180bpm
~Has very low OD, only at 3.
~A lot of repeat patterns. Memorize similar sections to make the whole map simpler.

Full combo Ryu* Vs. Sota - Go Beyond!! Alace's Taiko with 99% or better OR S Full Combo Shalon's Taiko.
Notes/Tips-
~200bpm
~Average OD 5
~Alace's Taiko's Kiai Time is simple, but is the most complicated piece. Practice off HR before going to HR.
~Shalon's Taiko is complex with many dddkd-type patterns and some random kat placement in the long streams.



I'll post more as I think of them. I'll need your help as players to determine how challenging these are for normal players, so let me know what you think.
[Rdyjin]
I'll give both of the second one a try, especially since I'm trying to break into the 200bpm zone right now for FCing and HR. Plus, it would give me a good excuse to get off my ass and stop being lazy about finally trying to SS something.

Edit: wtf you mean by normal players?? wut, we not GOOD enough to live up to YOUR standards? /mockanger
HashishKabob
Oh god. Not this again.

These two seem quite good, by the way i think that it'll be better to discuss about it in #taiko.
And also....without offence....but the challenges should be discussed by experts
HashishKabob
Makes sense. But I'm curious as to what you mean by expert? Expert of what? If you mean, taiko in general I'm sure I qualified for it.

I actually don't know...but probably around 30
Btw you're surely into the expert side...that is kinda uh...70/100 of do-don points.
I guess that while i'm barely in, a Xayphon is around 90

I saw this thread while missing the old one.

The old one was in the Introductions subboard, so that's probably why you missed it

I think he was asking how the maps were for players that aren't just taiko gods. It's not like additional opinions hurt, anyway. If I'm irrelevant because I'm noob, just ignore me lol.

I tried both beatmaps of Go Beyond!! last night for a while and came to the conclusion that, for me, [Shalon]'s taiko and Alace's taiko are pretty distant in terms of difficulty. Alace's map for being "more complex" is actually in my grasp to complete the proposed challenge, but [Shalon]'s map I'm a far way from even being able to pass. They also require different specific taiko skills to do, and it really feels like [Shalon]'s map is just more difficult period rather than they're a set of skills that I'm just not good with. I don't think the grace of just S'ing [Shalon]'s makes up for it compared to Alace's. Anyone wanting to just cheese something to get HR specialist would just pick Alace's taiko I'm sure.

Everyone has their own skillset too Rydin. Some people are great with long streams and complicated patterns, but can't do mods like DT or HD at all. Some are great with HR at any BPM, but can't HD at all. Some have incredible speed but can't stream worth a damn. I agree with you in the sense that Shalon's Taiko is much more challenging than Alace's, but since both maps are viable HR challenges, I gave the option for either or.

Also, that is an insane DT score there Nash, nice one :D
And what ARE do-don points? O.o

I think Neo just stuttered xD

That would explain "do-don"

This is very true and I considered it, but I still kind of felt that Shalon's is drastically harder that unless the player is good enough that the song is trivial, it's a noticeable enough gap.

But, of course, I can't even pass it and I only really started playing a month ago so hell if I know :U.

Shit, they found out! Escape plan B...... Time to flee! :o

EDIT: To be honest, I can switch in a stream at least 2 times before it becomes garbage :P

So tonight I have managed to do the following stream in 1/4 without a miss

ddddkdddkdddkdddddddkkddkkddkkkkddddkkk

without even thinking about it. The rest of the song I played like ass but I am amazed and kind of excited for how I'm finally able to stream longer 1/4s like that.

Just before I played that song and did that I was considering posting and asking if I might be doing something wrong with longer streams, but I think it's just that it's taking a lot of effort to switch my mind from wanting to read an entire pattern then do it to having to read a pattern while doing it at the same time. It gets kind of impractical to try and read and prepare for a whole 1/4 stream when it's 7 or more notes, but it's how I've always done 2, 3, 4, and 5 note patterns. Did other people encounter this sort of issue when learning2taiko or is this just a me thing?
