I don't suppose there's any real trick to know for 追風「フジタスケール６」 now is there? It's pretty much the last spellcard she has that gives me hell on Reimu (1/24 success rate including both actual and spell practice) besides the latter half of her timeout.

It's her third spell, the one that walls you off with fast dagger bullets and throws kunai in after. I THINK I see how I can do it but it seems to trigger imminent freakout since I end up practically top left or top right, possibly going to ram a red kunai near purple ones.

If anything the extra isn't that hard, just Azuna if you lack the knowledge about her attacks. I think I'm seeing how the giant dagger bullet wheel reacts. Do I just sit bottom middle and move with the direction they push me in? If so then ouch but at least I found a way to do it.

I almost got my no-deaths all-spells run but I choked on the last spell. At this point I think I'm hallucinating bullets from playing so long.

Truthfully in these tag team fangames I wish it kind of played out like imperishable night too team-wise, with an option of playing a single character as opposed to changing when focused. Not necessary but I'd still think it'd be neat if it was there.

I beat the Extra but Fraps keeps going to 30fps at the boss so I can't really post my results without the video suddenly going to 30fps for no apparent reason during the boss.

Also a popup appeared during the fight and I lost a life because of it thanks Windows >_>;; If I can sort out recording issues though I'll try and get a video up soon.

In terms of the actual boss fight though, I thought

Talking about RSS, yesterday i did a hard 1cc with Reimu's needles (autobomb on), and crashed during the ending. Extra didn't unlock for Reimu. Today i did the hard 1cc with Reimu's homing amulets and it didn't crash. Extra unlocked. Was that an isolated event or did this happen to someone else?

From the little surprise we had in WNSP EX... anyone thinks we are gonna get something different and unexpected in RSS Phantasm too...? I'm having hopes for it to surprise me... maybe we have to deal with 2 bosses at the same time throughout the battle...!

I believe the crash failed to unlock the Extra ...

The boss's distortion aura is a pixel shader, which causes strange and varied (or sometimes none at all) effects on Danmakufu when recording with a program that hooks onto the visual buffer of the program (such as Fraps). You can disable the effect in the options menu.

Since Riverbed Soul Saver Extra was Crimzon Clover stage 5 I'm going to guess Phantasm is going to be Dodonpachi Saidaioujou stage 5.

Now to wait for RSS Phantasm. RSS EX was actually the first Extra stage I had ever beaten in any danmaku game so it'll be kind of nostalgic(?) to re-visit it again and I can't wait.

I haven't been working on it as dedicated as you (maybe half as much) but I do hold true to my self-endowed title of clumsy. I usually have on average maybe 2 deaths in a run assuming I don't botch the stage portion. One timeout I've yet to capture (I have gotten close) while the other I'm like herp derp ram bullet at full speed accidentally on wave 3 or 6.

By all means it's not that hard of a stage and I enjoy it. I am just clumsy :V

Nnh. I'm sorry if I've come across as conceited. I was just really (overly, unhealthily) excited to have a shot at something that no one else had done yet.

Mesarthim · « **Reply #43 on:** January 28, 2015, 11:50:35 PM »

Oh I never intended it to have sounded as coming off as condescending or conceited in any way or form, I quite literally have only been working on it about half as much (according to your spell records). I'm also quite literally clumsy in my shmups playing. In my last run I died to Azuma's first spell, BEFORE the rain. :derp: Would have been a great run otherwise.

I'm sticking more with Reimu A but it has the middle ranking bomb. The damage doesn't come off for a few seconds but it's not as awful as the Marisa bomb (doesn't even autocollect and you move slow!).

There are two links - the top is for the full package, and the second one is just the Phantasm patch.

Spoiler:

----

Per character, to unlock Phantasm you have to complete Extra. This is even if you completed Extra before.

What I mean to say is that I just had the most awkward Extra run I can imagine. "I swear I remembered something like this... oh, guess it wasn't supposed to be done like that."

I think the Extra changed a little bit too. Also, there are at least two more sizes of point items, presumably to cut down on the number of sprites on screen.

----

First try, made it to the boss's second nonspell without hypers. I really have no idea how I lost my last two lives.

This one looks like it's going to be a tough nut to crack.

Hang on, now I have to make the effort to beat Extra. Time to shake off some rust, I suppose. At last I shall do a stage unspoiled!

draganuv15 · « **Reply #47 on:** January 31, 2015, 03:55:57 PM »

The fact that the shot I managed to beat Extra with was Reimu C made this an interesting first run. Made it to... I think the boss' fourth last attack? There were 4 stars from what I remember before I got killed. That was with Hypers though because Reimu C's Hyper is too insane not to use whenever possible. Triple gohei all the way!

Tons of fun though,

Got to Ms. Boss' third card, lost my last life there, which was totally deserved

Also, Ms. Boss' theme reminds me of An Yaezaki's theme. Link to refresh the memory.

Actually I found Ruri's first two spells quite tame, even more so than Mumumu's counterparts. The third one is BS, though.
Surprisingly I reached the boss's 6th card on my first run, probably because of all the lives it gave me in the stage. Some of the spells are easier than the Extra counterparts, but the nonspells are crazy.

?q · « **Reply #52 on:** January 31, 2015, 06:23:33 PM »

Ruri's first spell has random difficulty which is really annoying. Her second one is a gimme. The third one goes from basically impossible to generally doable once you realize that

As for the boss, after getting to the fourth card I'm not sure they're comparable.

I really like the stage theme. It sounds very "Evillious" to me, especially in the part where you fight Ruri. It also sounds a lot like TLC's extra stage in some parts, but I think that might just be similar instruments I'm hearing. I don't like the boss theme at all but I'm hoping it'll be like the Extra boss theme; it'll get better the more I listen to it.

(My computer can't play the game at a decent speed, so I could only watch the video). As far as spells go, most of the early ones seem dumb to me, most of the later ones seem ridiculously hard, but I really like the middle ones =P. I also like the 8th spell, and the second phase of the last spell, even if they are insane. And btw, the second spell is just like a spell in

Spoiler:

I'd like to point out that even if Ruri was implied to be Yukari's shikigami, that doesn't mean she ever was. Red herrings and all. And IIRC, Yukari couldn't even remember if Ruri was her shikigami or not (and neither could Ruri, for that matter).

Yeah, I will admit that a lot of

Spoiler:

spells feel a little gimmicky and the non-spells are extremely tense from what I've played of it. I also think the boss theme is kickass but doesn't feel like a Phantasm theme? It's tense definitely but it does feel more like just a standard Extra theme than a Phantasm theme. Then again the only official Phantasm theme is a remix of a slightly above-average theme so the fact that this was an original composition was nice.

Oh wow. Oh wow that boss. Oh wow why am I completely and utterly just flabbergasted at most of the fight. That was the most intense combination of awesome yet occasional bullshit. I'm not looking forward to trying to beat this, let me say that much. Blind I did made it to like... the eighth or so card.

But other than that... yeaaah.

That doesn't seem to happen with me. Tried (TRIED) to capture it with Marisa's missiles and Futo's wind. Some slowdown at the start but no crash. Useless with spell 04 you mean the boss' 4th spell card and not her 1st card, the one numbered as 4 in the PH practice page.
