Symphony Of Destruction

I am having serious issues now with the YBY triplet in the pre-chorus. I alternate strum but keep seeming to over-strum and kill my combo.

I have up until the BOBYRG in the solo down....hope i can improve and break 200k soon.

Try doing a hammer-on with the YBY. One of the only places I use them and I think even ES said this is the only place he uses hammer ons.

I hate this song..

I need to work on not making stupid mistakes. I just got 136k. =[ Trying to 5 star all the songs in order, and this is holding me up worse than Sharp Dressed Man was. >_>

Damnit! Is there any way to turn off HO/PO? The yby keeps messing me up because it thinks I'm doing a HO and counts that as the note, but I strum and it kills my combo. =[

The hardest part outside the solo is that fast YBY bit, scan some of the posts in here for tips on them, (don't worry about the solo, I hit less notes in that than I do in CfH's solo, and I 5* this no problem)

edit: just don't strum that bit and you'll keep your combo

FFS, finally! Beat the min 5* by almost 2k. Had to use 1/2 bar SP during the freaking solo. Ugh, I'm glad to finally be done with this song.

For now, anyways. -_-

The way I dealt with the YBY part was that I kept my middle finger on Yellow the whole time and tapped the Blue note quickly when it came up. I also single strummed the three notes.

Best I've done was FC the first half of the solo.

I always screw it up after the blue star note.

For all those that have trouble with the YBY part in the pre-chorus, try strumming the Yellow, HO the Blue then release and strum the yellow again. This is the most efficient way I found for myself and I never mess it up. I am simply no good with Ho/Po's in this game though. Strange, as I've played guitar for over 9years.. I think it's the big buttons :P

I don't get it, I am 100%ing everything except the solo and I keep getting well below 200k... are people really getting that much of the solo? If so, that's rediculous.wow....

Yes, people are getting that much of the solo. The solo isn't *really* that hard, just very fast. Honestly the hardest part of the solo to me is the OBYs at the end of it.
