Exactly how fast are the triplets in the solo?

Like could anybody compare it to another song?

Jordan Solo B: 32nd notes at 116 BPM = 15.467 notes per second

Beast and the Harlot Solo D: 24th notes at 155 BPM = 15.5 notes per second

So the two speeds are very close, with Beast and the Harlot's triplets being slightly faster. Both are faster than Misirlou and slower than Trogdor.

If you are using SP through the solo (thus going for a FC), 2-3-2-1 is optimal, period. If you are avoiding the solo and waiting for the next verse to use SP, the two paths are roughly equivalent, with 1-2-2-2-1 edging out 2-3-2-1 by about one note if all the squeezes are hit.

Is it really? I've been using 1-2-2-2-1 forever now... 2-3-2-1 just seems like a waste of SP, but I'll try it with 2-3-2-1 and see how the score reflects. Of course, I'll have to first do good in the song (as in like a -5 run or something) and beast Solo D... We'll see if my rank can move up a couple *hopes*

So, im assuming that the last phrase, the one in the last chorus, is pretty much useless in every path, correct?

Yes. The 2nd to last phrase gives you a full bar on its own, and the last phrase does not give you enough SP to activate, so it is completely useless.

So what is the last phrase for? Co-op? They should have added another phrase or something.

I think this will be the last song to be FC'd.
