How I do Mosh 1/Raining Blood

OK so like I said Id post a video and here it is. edit: please post your thoughts and comments so this is bumped, it may help someone.

All I can say is, dont slow down, there is never a space between the notes except when there are chords and at the beginning. This was a pretty decent run in my opinion, kept a 4x multiplier well into it(started at around 16 seconds I think), I always screw up at the beginning though. But yeah like I said, dont slow down your rate of fretting, and obviously, I downstrum with every new scale. Remember, you dont have to do it this way, but I recommend it.

oh btw- video- ended up with a score of about 19150. 75% hit, 151 hit, 88 streak....Ill try to get a better one up.

So there isn't a space between every 2 scales going down? That could probably make me improve. Will try when I get home from school. If it does work.....I'll love the shit out of you.

Ironically, the ONE time I made it past the descending notes was when I wasn't even looking at the screen

. But since I was so far in the red I just failed on the first rapid green thingy at the end of it

I think I'm going to try to record my own video of this, as when I passed it on career I got 85% or so on Mosh 1. =)

It's really tough but once you get it, you got it. It's just hitting the notes THAT FAST that's tough to grasp.

You gotta admit that when you're really rocking the spidercrawl it sounds and feels bad fucking ass :P That song is so awesomely brutal.

i FCed the spidercrawl twice, both times i did it i failed the song. the verse i believe, whatever it is right after the crawl. i am terrible at it. when i finally passed it i only 96%ed it

I just can't move my hand on the neck quick enough to reposition my hand - so I've been trying to leave my hand in the higher position (index on red) and just slide to the green when that group comes up. I can't get past 38% though, and in practice I'm usually in the 45-55% range for full speed. I'm sure one reason I fail is because I can't really get my strumming down, so by the middle I'm probably just wildly flailing at the bar. Argh.

for some reason whether or not i use star power or not i fail at about 36% on this song. ive only gotten past mosh 1 once and then proceeded to fail at about 95% song completed. since then i cannot get past mosh 1 and i am about ready to snap the removable neck of my guitar in half. does anyone know why star power seems to have no effect when i use it here? it seems like it has less saving power than in gh2
