What NPS are you comfortable hitting?
 
Hi guys, I just want to take a quick survey for reasons unknown. I'm curious as to what NPS you are comfortable hitting on average; as in fc comfortably up to 500 combos (exluding wristjack/vibrowalls)

For reference (updated thanks to kyzentun mentioning an error i've made!):
6nps=60bpm jumpstream with a jump on every 8th note, or 24ths at 60bpm(90bpm 16ths)
12nps=120bpm jumpstream with a jump on every 8th note, or 24ths at 120bpm(180bpm 16ths)
18nps=180bpm jumpstream with a jump on every 8th note, or 24ths at 180bpm(270bpm 16ths)
24nps=240bpm jumpstream with a jump on every 8th note, or 24ths at 240bpm(360bpm 16ths)
27nps=270bpm jumpstream with a jump on every 8th note, or 24ths at 270bpm(405bpm 16ths)

If you could answer the question straight away in the following format:
Quote:

20-22NPS - D6

and then you can explain down here if you'd like about any niches like being able to hit faster bursts, speed/stamina. Thank you!
For me it would be
20-22NPS - D6
I can hit Jumpstream with a jump on every 8th with occasional hands thrown in at 200-230 bpm comfortably. And I can fc 280 bpm streams with relative ease.

Probably... 12-13 NPS - D3/D4

Can jack/vibrate decently well on right hand though.

0NPS I find it comfortable to not hit anything

I'm not sure how to judge this since I'm not sure what the current nps is while playing.

@shadow I've just added a reference bit in the OP! hope it helps :D

10-12NPS -D2/D3

Based solely on Vertex Beta and being able to combo that stream on and off. Knocked down a few points because it's mostly off.

18-20 NPS - D6

This is just an estimate based on a few minutes of looking at some files around 180 bpm. Speed has never been much my thing.

20-22 nps - high/mid d5 (SM)
I can do 180-190 js with 8th jumps pretty easily, i'd say my strength is fast but light js (240-250 BPM) I can't hit steams for shit though, 270s pretty much my limit lmao.

20NPS

26 is a well rounded number for my comfort zone; but the tricky thing is what defines being comfortable.

26 is comfortable to me because I can steadily perform that and I rely on consistency. After that, it gets to the point where I can read and perform up to 29, but I WILL be having frequent slips or my stamina burns off when a higher than 26 NPS section arises.

Anything over 30 is brutal and unreliable for me at this current stage.

EDIT: Serious Shit caps at 30 in what seems to be Four or more times, and I currently have 11-0-3-1 on that and it is nearly only because my stamina burned at the end. The section after the momentary break (Dense JS) is AAA'able.

On index I could do 250 bpm 16th stream for probably an hour.

lmao wait what

Anyways, I'm not sure what I max out on exactly for spread. JS-wise for 500 notes, probably 280-300 BPM, depending on the density. Stream-wise, 370-380 I think.
Index, I max out at around 310-315 BPM for comboing. I've been trying to get more comfortable with 325 but my left finger doesn't like to cooperate, haha.

Not very many - d5

It can vary between 12-13 nps depending on the pattern.

My options are very limited on anything above 170bpm jumpstream.

280 bpm stream is probably at the top of my comfort zone. I should do some more testing on this.

Re: What NPS are you comfortable hitting?
 
idk probably 15-20 nps

Leo137 06-1-2015 01:08 AM

Re: What NPS are you comfortable hitting?
 
18-21 nps i guess

But im really blocked with JS's that has jumps every 8th note. i find them quite anyoing, can't focus on the rhythm. I can even handle handstreams better i think which is funny

22NPS - D6

For getting up to 500 combo every single time I feel pretty confident in 210-220bpm alternating 8th JS, maxing probably just over 22NPS. For reference I crush Etude for the Sinners JS, which is 200bpm, 20NPS.
Around 230-240bpm I can get 500 combos, sometimes even whole FC files with alternating 8th JS at that speed, but not reliably.
I'm definitely worse at stream than JS. I don't even think I can reliably always do 300bpm, so I'd put my max around 21NPS for streams, even lower if there are anchor/runningman/trill stuff to trip me up.


I have awful stamina. I'm glad you specified 500 combo because if you said 5000 my answer would be like, Quasar speed.
