Touhou Accomplishments XVI - Not Faily Wars

[xForeverFanaticx]

First ever capture of ATTWBN

The spell itself isn't too difficult, it's just that the speed at which each wave is spawned at the end that intimidates me. Luckily, the pattern is static? :V

[Esper]

OMFG, just got my first PCB Phantasm clear. It was with ReimuB. My hands were shaking and sweating really bad and my heart was thumping heavy. So tense towards the end. Had been on the verge of giving up.
Got 9 out of 13 captures which was awesome. Yukari's first spell killed me the exact moment I capped it. I capped Ran's second spell and also got Yukari's Shikigami: Ran spell too.
5 deaths and 12 bombs but I'm still very proud and ecstatic about this. Only unlocked it yesterday but played it a heap and failed a heap, haha.

Congrats, just know that in terms of danmaku/resources, PCB has the easiest Extra Stage, even including Phantasm.

[Massaca]

Thanks
Mm, I had heard that it's easier (border breaks being a big factor). Only other Extra I've done so far is IN's (month and a half ago) and I guess it was easier if I think about it, records say it took me 80 starts and I've got 17 tries on Yukari's first spell. IN's was close to 300 starts with Youmu/Yuyu before I learnt them all and got good enough (but IN's stage was much easier which was half my problem with Phantasm).
But it was hard at the time :blush:
Will probably play around on Phantasm or PCB Extra for a bit before going after Suwako.

PCB Stage 6 perfected on Hard. First run to make it past the third nonspell, actually.

Not looking forward to having to deal with it on Lunatic. <_<

[チソウ タイゼン]

Cleared FinalB Hard (2.2 billion)
Cleared IN Extra (1.3 billion)

The Extra clear was my first try back, too. I wonder what happened, I was never able to beat her.

[Byaaakuren]

If I focus less on score... I might survive long enough to 1CC with minimal cuts to my semi-consistent 270 million. Hmmm...

I haven't tried UFO Hard in ages, but I'm way too used to spamming Rainbows and Blues so I'm probably not gonna get far :V I also have to remember not to graze midboss Kogasa and her first non-card the way I did in Easy/Normal

Even if I cleared it, I wouldn't be very satisfied if my score was less than half a billion.

Do tell me which bosses have harder danmaku than Yukari when it comes to perfecting them?

Perfect UFO Stage 2 hard, I'm on a roll today.

The fact I managed to do a stage 6 of the same difficulty level before this says something about UFO, no?

[I have no name]

Do tell me which bosses have harder danmaku than Yukari when it comes to perfecting them?

Koishi does.
Byakuren probably does...not that I've faced her on lunatic.

[Buu]

Almost anything from UFO on Lunatic tops Yukari by miles.

Perfect Orin Lunatic. Now just to work on the popcorn hell part and I got my stage 5 perfect. :V

[ふねん1]

Do tell me which bosses have harder danmaku than Yukari when it comes to perfecting them?

Keep in mind that it really only takes one tough attack to make a boss "hard to perfect". As far as Extra bosses are concerned (I believe that's what Esu was referring to), Mokou (with her rings of death) qualifies as harder to perfect than Yukari, and Flandre and Suwako might also be harder if you have trouble with Q.E.D. and Suwa War, respectively.

[Buu]

Never thought I'd be so happy about such a pitiful thing but SA Lunatic Stage 1 Perfect. Kurodani's first non-spell is wayyyyy misplaced. :[

[Zengeku]

Do tell me which bosses have harder danmaku than Yukari when it comes to perfecting them?

To keep within Extra bosses: Mokou, Flandre and Mamizou. Probably some from PC-98 too. In a way also Suwako because she's got some nasty memorizers.

[Esper]

Do tell me which bosses have harder danmaku than Yukari when it comes to perfecting them?

Do tell me which Extra Stages have more resources than Yukari when it comes to clearing them?

[PMW]

Do tell me which Extra Stages have more resources than Yukari when it comes to clearing them?

Mokou, Suwako, Koishi  :V

As for accomplishments I managed to clear 6-5 on StB ultra, that one is just filled with luck in the second wave.

The main thing though is that I reached freaking 70 scenes cleared on ultra. 

:toot:

Loving Heart "Double Spark" Lunatic No Focus timeout in one try.

...That was piss easy.

Cat's Walk lunatic capture!
btw, I now have 7 attempts at the ghost wheels in stage practice.  I nearly captured them this time  :V

Had a pretty sweet NBNUFO run that ended on Shou's last spellcard. I had a perfect run up until Murasa's last nonspell. I think I could have reached stage 6 if I didn't die four times to Shou.

[Zil]

I think I could have reached stage 6 if I didn't die four times to Shou.

Well, if you only had four lives to lose, and you died less than four times, reaching stage 6 would have been inevitable. :3

Sounds like a great run though, so congrats. I'll be sure to watch the replay. Good luck getting the full 1cc!

[チソウ タイゼン]

Lowering my reliance on the Border Team, means that I am discovering, how unfun it is to play as teams other than the Border Team.

Just FinalA + FinalB cleared IN Easy and Normal modes, with the Magic Team.
I think I did better on Kaguya's last spells on Hard mode :x

Also.... capturing 25 spells on Hard, but 21 on Normal.
Hmmm.

Reimu's so much more fun to fight than Marisa :I
It's the Ghost Team that fights her, right?

[I have no name]

Border and Ghost fight Marisa, Magic and Scarlet fight Reimu.

and shut up Ghost Team is most fun  :V (although Border is most effective...)

[Thanuris]

UBS timeout

EDIT: Now on YouTube

...and the timeout phase is god-tier.

[Kaze_Senshi]

Today I think that I get my first "Cherrypoint Max!" on PCB hard difficult D:

[Elysia]

IWAFUNE ASCENDING TO HEAVEN TIMEOUT!

That is all.

[BT]

Only 90 attempts? :V

That one is a thing. Congrats.

[SuccinctAndPunchy]

Lowering my reliance on the Border Team, means that I am discovering, how unfun it is to play as teams other than the Border Team.

Oh god, I went through this once.

I never did decrease my reliance on them, it just made me more firm in the belief that anyone else is shit unless you're into scoring, which I absolutely am not.

[BT]

In the span of 45 minutes I have

-Captured Lunatic Alice's first card for the first time.
-'Captured' Lunatic Momiji with extraordinarily crazy dodges, even for myself.
-Died at the last second to Kanako's first nonspell and second-final spell after doing them pretty damn convincingly.
-Died at the last second to Lunatic Greatest Treasure after some amazing dodging. Times Nazrin Has Done This to Me Count: 3 and rising.
-Survived 3 loops in Lunatic Vajra, a new personal best I believe.
-'Captured' Lunatic Byakuren's second nonspell a second time. I say 'captured' because I died to the very last bullet before it despawned when the nonspell was already over. :/
-Died at the last second to Devil's Recitation after doing really well.
-1Miss LFS, in which I died stupidly during the beginning and did really well at the end.

These all individually aren't a whole lot (or anything at all) but after doing all this in such a short timespan I'm feeling sharper than a knife. Maybe today's the day I do something big... but alas, I don't have a lot of time today. :V

[Heian_Alien]

ANNND... at long last... SA HARD 1CC

http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=21859

By reducing the amount of risk to minimum(?), I finally did it!( still 4 deaths with 2 or more bombs though, including a hope-shattering one at S6)
Still, it does feel like something is missing because I entered Utsuho with 1 life and still managed to win...bombing every damn thing she threw at me.
Gotta practice that bitch...someday. Now only UFO is left to clear at Hard difficulty, but it seems like a hard nut to crack, seeing as I have still to reach stage 6.  :V

[Lecithul]

Captured 9-7 in DS with only 83 tries

[チソウ タイゼン]

yay
