The events in Hatsune Miku: Colourful Stage! Are many, with frequent rewards to be gained. To heighten your ranking and gain the chance to earn a shiny new event badge, you need to gain event points. But how do you stack up on them?
This article will highlight the top 5 methods to gain event points, so not only can you get in-game goodies, but also so you can show off your event title badges to your friends.
1. Use real-life money
To Farm Crystals, You'd Need to Pay Up
It’s no dirty secret that those who rank high with millions of event points pay their way through. There are different special deals and promotions per event, which help you decide where to better spend your money. Although event cards are valuable, they are limited to three stars in the event shop, which may put you at a disadvantage if you purchase them.
The most common thing to buy is crystals. With an abundance of crystals, you attempt to gain four-star cards. Because they’re so rare, it costs a lot of crystals to find the ones you need. It’s worth using them to also pull the characters and attributes that will get you the highest percentage increase of event points.
It’s wise to also buy energy. With the maximum perishable energy being 99, it’s important to stack up on as much as you can, so you can increase the amount used per song to 10, which will get you the highest amount of event points.
2. Pick your songs wisely
Although the main aim of the game is to enjoy yourself, in events, there’s no use picking only the songs that you like. Each song and level have their own difficulty scores, and the higher the number, the higher the number of event points you will get.
It’s worth picking the songs you are good at, so you can reach higher than rank B while playing. With good gameplay comes good rewards, and a good reward is event points. In addition, you’ll gain more event tokens too, which can be cashed in for items that can help level up your cards and their subsequent talents.
The length of the songs is what’s most important. Picking shorter songs means you have more time to cram in as many other songs as possible during each session of gameplay. Examples of shorter songs include Cinema, Jackpot Sad Girl and Hitorinbo Envy.
3. Optimise your energy
The default energy used per song is 3, but for events, this is just not good enough. Having a good selection of energy types is useful, especially since there’s no time to waste waiting around for your energy to refill itself with time.
If you can afford to, either with real money or a huge inventory, go for 10 energy every time. This way, you can get the most out of every song you play. If you combine this with choosing the shortest songs available, you’re sure to end up with a rank above 100,000.
If your store is tight, play it safe and go for 2 energy every time. It’s the highest value aside from 10, and you don’t have to wait as long for your energy to regenerate. If you’re desperate, playing with 0 energy should be your last resort before throwing in the towel.
4. Play your cards right
As mentioned before, every card in the game has an attribute. These attributes wouldn’t have any effect on regular gameplay, but they’re essential during events.The five attributes are happy, mysterious, cool, pure and cute, which are represented by either a star, plant, heart, flower or moon.
Each event has a select attribute that allows any card of that attribute to have an increase of event points by 20%. In addition, if you have the event’s character cards, your point percentage increases by 20%.
Having both the character and attribute will give you 50% per card, so, altogether, there is potential for a huge 250% increase in event points, which will put you ahead of the game by miles. Therefore, it’s important to try pulling four-star cards of all kinds, and levelling them and their skills up to the maximum, so you’re prepared for any event the game throws at you.
5. Teamwork is dreamwork
Multi-playing is mandatory if you want to rack up event points. Although with the Cheerful Carnival multiplying events, there’s no way to choose which song you’ll play, it’s worth it.
The solo gameplay gives almost half of the event points you will get in any multiplayer mode, even if it’s not related to the event, although the Cheerful Carnival event gameplay gets you the most by far. In addition to this, you gain much more bonus rewards with Fever and Super fever, which will help you level up your characters and their SEKAI.
Always use energy when multi-playing, but even when you have none left, some people may give you some as a gift. There are risks involved, such as the crew disbanding or losing connection mid-game, and it does take significantly longer than a solo show, but the giant stack of event points you’ll gain in the end is too good to miss.
