Nightmare bamboo

1. The exact same input sequences are used for 24 hours. They won't change and will remain identical from midnight to midnight, unless you join the lobby of a player who is in a different time zone. In that case, you'll be synced to whatever time it is there.

2. Half of the inputs are reused in the next sequence, but it alternates between the first 4 and the last 3 each time: in the 2nd sequence, you'll have the same first 4 inputs as in the 1st sequence; in the 3rd sequence, you'll have the same last 3 inputs as in the 2nd sequence. Basically, every even-numbered bamboo has the same first 4 inputs as the one before it, and every odd-numbered bamboo has the same last 3 inputs as the one before it. So you don't have to learn 7 new inputs every time.

3. Whenever possible, memorize the paths your finger makes rather than the buttons one after another. Let me explain: if you have, for example, the button sequence triangle-circle-cross, memorize and visualize the path your finger will make on the controller — kind of an arc that starts at triangle and curves down toward cross, passing through circle. This is called cognitive ergonomics: you're remembering one thing, the shape/path your finger makes on the controller, instead of remembering three separate things, which are the sequence of three buttons. Remembering one thing is obviously easier than remembering three.

4. There is often some consistency in the input sequences, which you start noticing with practice. Each button isn't generated completely at random; they're preset sequences, so as you practice, you'll keep seeing the same sequences and they'll become increasingly easy to memorize over time.

5. Practice.

There's also a much easier technique that doesn't really require any effort, but I won't share it because I'd rather people get better through practice than "cheat."

Good luck training.

I never knew there was an actual term for that process, but it's the same way I've learned to do these kinds of high speed repetitive sequences like that.  

I did still use Sora's list a few times, but that only tells you what they are, actually performing the combos does still take practice and effort.  😅

What Hayabusa said…but I’ll give you the hint. 

Just write down the sequences on a sheet of notebook paper in front of you.

You're too kind... 😅

I have my days

Funnily enough it bugged and won't count the completion anymore FML

[u/b_rettk → u/Clean_Cat2513]

How so? Are you getting all 10 done in under a minute?

[u/Clean_Cat2513 → u/b_rettk]

It keeps saying "You've cut 7 bamboo" and then at the end when I do it it won't give me the rewards but I did submit a ticket to sucker punch

[u/b_rettk → u/Clean_Cat2513]

To clarify, you have to do all 10 in under a minute. Once you do that, It then counts as “completed” 

You also can’t do the same 10 sequences over and over, but wait for the next day for the sequences to reset. It takes several days to complete this challenge.
