Battle Garegga (ARC/SAT/PS4/XBONE)

Post by Plasmo »

So here's the new one!

Copying Rando's words to clarify the rules:


Please post your scores in the format:

Code: Select all

SCORE - NAME - STAGE - SHIP (SUBTYPE)
A quick note on the tables. Each table has the main ship name listed, with the names of the subtypes in the order B/C/ABC below it. You can either post in the format Wild Snail (B) or Iron Mackerel, whichever makes you more comfortable.

Be aware that I will only accept scores posted with the JAPANESE DEFAULTS - that's Extends set to every 1mil, Normal difficulty. The things that will disqualify a score are Red Ball and Stage Edit, as well as scores submitted for the other versions of the game (like the China revision).

Get those scores in! And enjoy this great game.

-kept the old format
-updated all scores
-corrected some mistakes
-got rid of the weird names for the Mahou characters, now it's just (A), (B), (C) and (ABC) again

Let me know if I forgot anything!

@bkk

Cool! Glad to see this board is in active hands again. I miss Rando though... :cry:

Here's a suggestion, you don't have to follow it. I'd rather the subtype be listed for all ships, not just Mahou. So Flying Baron (C) instead of Red Impulse. Of course keep the part where it says Stormy Omen / Red Impulse / Black Zeppelin.


Edit: Woo, all letter top ten!

Totally didn't expect the following...
I was just playing one or two credits, because I wanted to try a few new strategies. Basically I brought all new strategies I could think of in one single run and it worked.
The two major new tricks I haven't used until this credit were:

1. Stage 3 boss milking
2. Destroying the core of the big green ship in stage 5 with a bomb and thus destroying ALL of the shrapnel. This one is especially difficult, you somehow have to feel the boss' energy.

Here's the outcome:

G,766,020 - Cowboy-NOA - ALL - Gain (ABC)

Stage 1: 640,000
Stage 2: 4,600,000 (3,2mill after birds)
Stage 3: 6,200,000
Stage 4: 8,200,000
Stage 5: C,300,000
Stage 6: E,300,000

This was also the first time I did NOT bomb the shrapnel before BHMKII, because I wanted to hoard more bombs for him.
Broke my chain once during stage 6 and another time right before BHMKII in stage 7

I wanted to stop playing Garegga and now I fucking beat KET's monster score. Fuck yeah!!

:D :D :D

That's scary Plasmo... ;-)
Destroying the core of the big green ship in stage 5 with a bomb and thus destroying ALL of the shrapnel. This one is especially difficult, you somehow have to feel the boss' energy.
One strategy I have used for this is to weaken the green ship for one full top-to bottom-to top pattern (that is, start hurting it when it is at the top of the screen, and stop when it returns to the top). When your ship explodes, it cannot kill a boss, but it can lower its hp to 1, therefore you can suicide at this point to ensure it is at 1 hp and ready for the bomb. However if you are japanese then you are already in synchronization with the boss' chi energy and you don't need to do this.

I try to copy KET's non-suicide technique from his G,7 replay:
  • Try not to shoot the turret that protects the core,, to not accidentally weaken the core before you haven't destroyed all the other parts of the boss.
  • Have as much bomb icons as possible. Around 10 seems to be fine.
  • Shoot the turret that protects the core.
  • Wait until the core is as far away as the screen will scroll. Exactly when it starts scrolling up again, shoot the core with full power (4 options, front formation, max shot frequency) until the turret fires it's third attack, stop shooting immediately.
  • Wait another attack cycle, until the boss starts scrolling up another time. Shoot again with full power until it's third/fourth attack. Now it should have close to zero health and you can bomb the core.
  • While your bomb is still active, but the core is not yet destroyed, keep shooting it. When the shrapnel bursts out, of course, stop shooting, so that your bomb can destroy the bits.
Of course this strategy only works, if you more or less have the same rank at this point. The core gains more energy the higher your rank is. But even if your rank is higher, you can easily adjust this strategy by keep shooting for 4 attacks during both cycles for example.
A suicide makes everything much easier, but my suicide distribution doesn't allow me to die there. :wink:

BTW, feels really good to have this scoreboard back in western hands again. ^_^

Is playing in Raine considered cheating? The controls are significantly more responsive than in MAME. I've heard that the original PCB has laggy controls but the Saturn port does not, so if this is true and the Saturn version isn't cheating then I don't think playing in Raine should be considered cheating. I've also heard that standard MAME adds even more lag than the PCB, but there's a special build of MAME with less lag (although still more than Raine).

In any case I'm going to keep using Raine because it's so much more fun, but is this acceptable for scoring purposes?

I don't care about laggy controls. If it's there, it should be easy to deal with and Saturn scores are allowed anyway. Feel free to post your scores, Pulsewidth, looking forward to update the main post with them. :D

Kinda put this game aside after failing to finish it during STGT, but maybe posting my score here will encourage me to make the final push. (I need more work on Black Heart Mk2, once I get past that it should be game)

Workin' my ass off on this, but reall no big improvement.. +200k..
Just a matter of pulling everything together in one run, and getting to lvl5 consistantly.
So, it's a machine named Golgoodian.
