Hey, guys. Time for the first forum topic I can call my own.
I seek guidance from you all for my quest of total Touhou domination.
My next mission in the Touhouverse is to clear Ten Desires on Hard, since I'm certain I can do it.
Hell, my first ever attempt was on a public computer surrounded by distractions with no game sound on a computer of questionable strength, and I got to Miko's 3rd card before game-overing.
Now, my weakest link in this game has always been Trance routes... in that I basically make them up as I go and hit C pretty much whenever I feel like it. If I'm going to ensure victory, it would help to actually have a game plan.
So, Ten Desires superpros, I ask you this: when do you Trance for maximum resources, and if that falls through, what's the next best thing?
