HellAshes Technique FAQ

**ChaosLegend** · Posted: Fri Jul 11, 2008 2:54 pm Post subject:

I've been trying to improve my KoC score on Hard and the main problem I have is at the outro. I usually downstrum the whole of it, which really tires my hand out. I decided to try alt-strumming but I can't seem to get the strumming down. Should I alt-strum the whole way or only parts of it?

Thanks

Hey HA, I had a couple of questions.

Firstly, is there any videos/pictures of the gloves you use/used to use? I've been wanting to use them but I didn't really know what kind, exactly (wool, mittens, leather, etc.)

Secondly, I wanted to know some techniques/songs I can practice trills and/or zigzags with. I'm terrible at both of them, and I've been trying to get better at them.

Thanks.

HA I also have been wondering what kind of gloves you use and wear could I get a pair? Or What material so I could know what to buy? I really do think it's a great Idea.

What about 'timing', like for songs like 'take this life' or 'misirlou' where it's complicated to get the timing down, how do you take care of that? Also, on B&tH do you suggest doing the hammerons on the fast strumming solo?

and finally! What song do I do next on GH2?

How do you do solo D of Beast and the harlot?
Not just fingering, but the timing of the strumming, because whenever I see vids of solo D FC's the hammer-ons are used and it sounds like they are creating a consistent rhythm of two strums per triplet. It's hard to explain, but watch witwix's video of him FCing the solo 5 times in a row and you will know what i mean.

How I do it
___________________________________________________________
Hardly consistant, but first, I strum the first three notes VERY VERY fast so it goes

strum->1-2-3 hammer-on->1 strum->2-3 about nine times I think it is

Do the hammer on interlude

strum->1-2-3 hammer-on->1 strum->2-3

You can EASILY strum two notes back to back fast enough. Three is doable... after that it's a pain with the GH2 game engine.

Edit:
*Note*
I have NEVER gotten 100% on the solo, most ever is 88%... So... yeah... lol...
