I just added more reference videos recently! It'd be great to hear any comments/suggestions/feedback.

Check them all out here.

Main Offender: 0/BO – 0/BO – 0/BO (Rizzo, someguy913, laconic) [Careful not to hit the last note of the second energy phrase of the third activation too early. You should have 3 OD’s before you activate your third phrase]

Is there any chance that someone could explain this to me? I think it may be worded a little incorrectly and im just trying to understand which phrase its talking about, if you could describe which overdrive phrase i hit late it would be appreciated (i.e. the snare roll activation...etc.)

Ahhh nevermind i finally figured it out, i actually read it correctly, but i couldnt understand why you would hit that phrase late, so i think it would help people understand better if you told them why your skipping the activation, i thought i was trying to not continue the currently activated overdrive by hitting an overdrive phrase late, but i was trying to hit it late so i could skip a drum fill, maybe im just dumb? haha, oh well, tied for 1st on this song now, so i guess i cant be too dumb

Sorry, clarified it a bit in the main post. I actually had it longer before, but then I shortened it to save space... I guess I kind of lost meaning when I did that >.<

Just want to make a little sidenote about Epic; it seems the path would be 2 0 1. I did it without squeezes, and added up the possible squeezes (which is 1200 points.) The max score came out to 234,475. The high scores I've seen posted are between 234,075 and 234,175.

I'll check tomorrow if 2 0 2 gets a very close score to 2 0 1.

Do these paths generally hold true for easy/medium/hard as well?

With that 0011 RttH path, am I supposed to end with a 1/4 bar of OD?

Hmm... No, you shouldn't Gurn.

First activation should be at m26, just before the fast part. You should have 2 od's and pick one up while it's running.
Second activation should be at m59, at the beginning of the second verse. You should have 3 od's before you activate.
Third activation should be at m87, right as the guitar solo starts. You should have to skip only one fill (at m78, in the middle of the second chorus), and you will have 3 od's.
Fourth activation is at m127, in the middle of the third chorus. You should only have to skip one fill (which is right at the end of the bridge) and you should have 4 od's and you will pick up one while it's running.

That's how it is supposed to work. Looking at it, there are only 2 things I can think of that may have happened: Somehow, the fill in the middle bridge appeared (it should be too fast for that), or there's some disappearing OD/fills happening. Test this explanation, see how it works.

The last squeeze on Reptilia may be off....its in the middle of a blue section just like the second squeeze but its different squeeze, i would gladly check it myself but i dont know where these "ajanta charts" that everyone speaks of are. I also was playing and it messed my streak up, and 99% of the time ill hit my squeezes....so if you could look into it it would be appreciated.

EDIT: I'm a dumbass. Found the charts.

EDIT 2: According to his charts, the last squeeze is defintely RB instead of OG.
