So there are some osu lazer mods that I think is very unbalanced when it comes to how much score it gives you. I have very much abused these mods but I still think something should be done about it.


1. Strict Tracking

Strict Tracking gives way more score than it should So this only affects classic score not standardised score. So you can boost yourself up the ranked score rankings using ST. I think it gives way more than it should cause it counts every slider end as another note and then it just gives exponentially more score.
Examples:
The Unforgiving SS without ST gives 1,4 bil score but with ST it gives 2,4 bil score.
The Sun, The, Moon, The Star ss without ST gives 1,5 bil score and with ST it gives 2,2 bil score.
The additional score it gives is directly tied to the amount of sliders. The Unforgiving has almost twice as many sliders as The Sun, The Moon, The Star so therefore it gets a bigger boost


2. Wind Down/ Wind Up

Wind Down/ Wind Up only gives a 0.5x score penalty even though it can decrease the speed by 0.5 Its very unbalanced. Using Ht to go to 0.5x speed would give 0.1x score penalty


3. Difficulty Adjust

This one can also be really bad. Difficulty Adjust also gives a penalty of 0.5x. Using Difficulty Adjust you can change so that the maps have really big circles and really low od. This obviously makes the maps way easier. This can be amplified if you are playing a low cs map or a low ar reading map. I dont think it is as bad as the other mods but it still gives more score than it should compared to like EZ that also give 0.5x score.


Examples on how to abuse this:

scores/4409462100 This score I set makes a 9,2 star into a 4,1 star and only gives a 0.25x score penalty + the strict tracking bonus. It also has OD -13 after these mods. I got 434 mil ranked score from this and I had leaderboard on the map for pretty long.

scores/4279215174 This score abuses ST and It gives 1,1 bil score when it should give like 0,6 bil score

scores/4339574950 Here I am top 24 as of uploading this post. By abusing Wind down and Difficulty Adjust I was able to get this score. So this is a 9,3 star map that I can make to a 4,2 star map with OD -13.

Here are alot more examples of maps where I have leaderboard by abusing wind down and difficulty adjust:
scores/4103219388
scores/4108192577
scores/4114748662
scores/4104790458
scores/4108179317
scores/4115809226
scores/4181382400
scores/4104957050

yeah you get it.

The one Im most worried about is Strict tracking though. It can literally ruin score grinding by making score out of thin air and exceeding the max score of the map.
