*LP Charges gained via event missions expire at the end of the day that they are claimed.

Songs:

During rhythm gameplay, some notes will have key icons on them. Be sure that you don't miss any of these as they directly relate to the amount of keys gained at the end of a song. In the second image above, you can see that I gained 1980 keys. In the image, the categories determining the amount of keys gained are: base event keys (600), event song bonus (+300), event skill bonus (+1080), and event bonus item (0).

On the live page, event songs will be marked with the pink and white イベントボーナス曲 text. Play these songs for the most event keys.

Playing the songs that have the highest count of notes on the highest difficulty you can. It may vary by player, but generally the most efficient song will be whichever song is the longest in the setlist. See song lengths here. Failing that, it will be the highest difficulty song. Take notes and compare which is most efficient for you.

Combo and score do NOT matter for Box events. Only the amount of key icons successfully tapped. Play on the highest difficulty that you can clear.

See end section for more tips.

Opening Boxes

Once you have gained event keys, navigate to the Event Box page (#5 as marked on the event page image). Simply tap on any of the boxes to open one. The reward will be random.

Tap the blue button to auto open boxes. Occasionally a box will shake, indicating that it has an item that you are missing in the current line. Auto opening boxes may ignore the shaking boxes and continue to open randomly, taking longer to fill a line.

One the entire line of items at the top of the screen has been gained, you will gain the reward for completing that step, and unlock the next.

You can preview the upcoming rewards by tapping the icon in the bottom left, and navigating through the steps with the arrows in the top right of the popup.

General Tips:

Emotional Pieces/Team Comp Tips:

Use pieces with an event bonus skill on all of your teams regardless of attribute.

Utilise pieces with an event bonus skill as soon as you can unlock another copy of them.

Live Guest Tips:

Choose guests with the highest event skill bonus for live shows. You can see the percentage they boost event points by in pink above their right title. Eg. 'ライブで盛られるイベントポイントを40％アップ' meaning it 'raises the received event points by 40%.’

You can reset guests using the 'ゲスト更新’ button in the top left when choosing a guest to find the best one. It's a bit tedious, but getting a 60% or higher bonus every time really adds up.

Use your event bonus (glowstick) items to raise event points when you use guests with the a high event bonus skill (+80% or +100%).

Follow guests you see with high event bonus skills so they show up as a guest for future live shows as well.

Live Tips:

If you're not short on time, stick to 2 LP for regular gameplay. Higher amounts of LP usage give diminishing rewards. 3-5LP are okay, especially if you're short on time or just want to progress as quickly as possible without caring about LP efficiency. Moreso for for 10LP. If you use 5-10LP, it seems best to save it for when you can use a guest that has an 80% or 100% bonus.

Make sure you’re playing the event songs.

Play the longest song on the highest difficulty you can, or otherwise whichever gives you the highest amount of keys. Score and combo do not matter for Box Events, only key multipliers.

Skip tickets used to be not worth much, but after some changes they now give only slightly less than playing manually so they’re much more valuable. Thanks to @blueesnow for the comparison!

Only use auto if you can’t play yourself and don’t want to/can't use any more skip tickets. If you are auto-ing a song, auto it on expert to get more points (I think).

If you miss a key icon note you can exit a song by pressing the button in the top right corner, then pressing left button, then the right button to confirm. You don’t lose any LP or items spent on the song. Especially useful if you’ve used a lot of LP or an event bonus item and don’t want it to go to waste.

Other Tips:

If you have enough event keys to finish a step with an event piece reward, do it. Redeem and put every event bonus skill piece on your team as soon as possible. You dont want to be playing event songs without that potential extra event bonus skill on your team.

Since key multipliers are the only thing that matter for Box events, feel free to fill out the rest of your teams with pieces that you want to level up, or characters you want to raise bond with.

Use items marked with a pink speech bubble that reads 日限定 before they expire daily at midnight Japan time.

The missions can be cleared by using 0 LP. The LP Charges gained from event missions must be used the day that you claim them from the missions screen. You may want to wait to claim them until you’re sure you have time to use them, or until later in the event when you will have more event bonus pieces on your teams, and therefore can get higher returns from using them.

For the same reason, you may want to save your Event bonus items for later in the event.

Set pieces with event bonus skill your guest helpers in Menu>Player Detail>ゲスト設定>Pick one per attribute using the 変更する button. This doesn’t help you, but its common courtesy since they will be your guest helpers for other players.

Early voting finally started for me. So Ringo would like to tell all of you in the US "Go vote!!!!"

[sewmice]

I've seen a lot of posts criticizing terminally-online leftists for thinking that not voting will somehow send the Deomcratic party to the left instead of to the center, and while that is true

I haven't seen many pointing out that voting actually works for progressive causes.

Joe Biden moved to the left significantly on climate because the left wing of the party wanted to work with him. The centrists in the party, like Joe Manchin, frustratingly dragged their heels on everything because they weren't that interested in getting things done. But the leftists in the party, like Bernie and AOC, actually engaged in talks and compromises and pulled Biden much, much farther left on climate than where he started. A lot of great green policy came out of the last four years!

There was even a Pod Save America interview a few months ago where one of Biden's cabinet members (very diplomatically) confirmed that the leftwing of the party was so much better to work with than centrists like Joe Manchin. (Probably because leftists actually care about the things they talk about and want to do things besides go to fancy Washington parties and stay in congress for a million years.)

So, I really cannot stress enough that actually showing up and working with people actually does pay off for your cause. You can do more for the things you care about when you are at the table. Your vote actually does create the change you are seeking, even when you are voting for someone who is not 100% aligned with you.

Made it to the final UR using 2 or 3 regular bottles outside of my natural LP and the event bottles. Generally using 50% or higher guests. (I follow 2 100% guests and a 80% from past events and that also helped) Thankfully without there being an SR, they made the points required for the final UR lower. So it's still barely feasible.

I was also a tad busy during the event and not as on top of my LP refills. I also only play on normal for my sanity and to play muted while multitasking. AND my team is not as optimized as it could be because of bad jewel drops. And of course didn't have any luck with my free gacha pulls.

That does mean without an event SR, the UR coin gets kinda out of reach without extra grinding or gacha cards. Also without an SR, its just kinda miserable points-wise. The gap between UR 1 and 2 is 80k and it was a brutal slow climb. I know its caused people to give up.

Box events continue to be a lot friendlier. These will in theory get a little easier over time as we all get better cards/teams. But it's gonna be a while.
