I didnt find black shards all that tough and there's only one character that uses em anyways. Right now im having the most trouble with red shards as I still need like four characters from them and i have no quests that reward them.

Play a bunch of vs. The default quest attached to your proficard is a lv10 short quest with 3 red shards, most people don't change their default.

Square Enix is supposed to announce them at events and such I guess. That was the idea anyway, I think someone just checked the game data and now you can get like 60 CP+1 cards yay

I'm pissed, I keep getting high level quests where all the songs are Ultimate which is WAY too hard for me. I just wanna play quests drat it!!!!

I guess I might try to learn the button style, since apparently that is easier for higher difficulties? I find that I really don't have quick enough reaction time to get the swipe notes correct in BMS songs. I can pretty much perfect chain every song in basic and expert with the stylus, though.

I like button for expert BMS songs, FMS or ultimate I have to do stylus since it's just easier for me.

Just do the ultimate quests, if you fail it'll spit out a lower level one, but you'll at least get better at the ultimates!

The EXP abilities just affect the character with it equipped, right? I somehow got seven EXP Up II scrolls :psyduck:

Quests are given based on how you do. Use a level down nut and the next quest will be level 1 and they can't increase by more than like, 25 levels each time so you'll be playing easy quests for a while

Where does it hurt?
i can't use anything but stick + R and it is great that way

although on FMSes the joystick at the end of a hold can be a bit wonky and you still have to use stylus for everything

i use buttons for everything but ultimate FMS. stylus on ultimate FMS still feels a bit laggy though, i always take hits on segments where it goes up/down really fast.

In other news i almost have exp+ on my FF5 peeps, just got a couple miratete memoirs, and three of the four just prestiged. i think they'll be prestiging again very soon :getin:

you hold down to make it go down and hold up to make it go up, it handles the speed for you so it works pretty well

Ultimate on everything is way easier on buttons for me. The swiping at the end of a hold can be bad in FMS but you get used to it

tbh no Distant Worlds from FF11 is kinda bullshit, I'm guessing it's one of the dropped EMS from the first game? there's a few songs that seem conspicuously absent, like it and ff6's opera theme

The EMS songs of the first game are still in this one, they've just been redone as BMS and FMSes.

Edit: Protect the Espers! is real good

I think it's kinda weird they didn't include Liberi Fatali or Eyes on Me for the FF8 section.

Also, when they localized the game for NA, they couldn't swap out the Japanese version of Melodies of Life for the English one?

Got a Lv73 Medium Quest with a 5 silver final boss reward right here, a Lv68 Short with 5 and a Lv70 Short with 4.

Personally I need 6 yellow and 6 red shards and then I'll have everyone unlocked
