[Old] A Beginner's Guide to BanG Dream: Girls Band Party! (2022)

[@chiaki_amami]

Great video! While I have played Bandori before, it's been a long time! This video definitely helped me a lot! :)

[@lyric-epardlo]

OMG!!!! looking at the middle is SOO much easier TYSM!!

[@etudelina]

tysm about the card arrangement thing, i'm playing on jp bandori because my friends are also so i don't use english bandori and i didn't know it was important to have the same band

[@luxiyama]

As with most things, I always remember I forgot something after a while. When it comes to events, some will have specific "Goals" to clear, such as playing a song at a certain difficulty, or getting x amount of great notes, etc. Should be self-explanatory enough, just tap on the Goals button in the Event menu, if it exists.

[@SargeWolf010]

I'm aware that this is an old guide but I thank you for the help I'm a 3rd time returning player 😅 wish I knew about this guide the 2nd time I returned 😅

Glad to hear, good luck

[@Pipurinn]

This guide was so thorough and clear! Thank u so much

[@kiloljpr6284]

[@slayygela]

I had so many epiphanies while watching this video!! Thank you 💓

[@ameagari8586]

Thanks for the guide man, it really help me. I'm still new with this game, but I play osu too in my laptop at 3/4s (circle). So I will take my time to adapt with this bandori game

[@kiraramax2066]

eventually in Bandori JP you'll get to ascend characters by one star, so you'll be seeing 5 star characters, after their 6th anniversary.

[@luxiyama]

I've seen that on the subreddit, so I'm kinda torn between making an updated 5th anniversary guide and a 6th anniversary guide.

[@xiaoandyoimiyasimp3193]

​@@luxiyama please do

[@graciebrear]

This was so helpful thank you so much!!

[@rumi7828]

woah, what a good video, thank you!

[@luxiyama]

Glad it could be of some help ^^

[@Ra_ue2]

So in fact, i could just spend stars in the caracter i want? There's no "meta"

[@luxiyama]

Well, there are theoretical bands made up of the strongest cards that work the best together, but at this point it's practically impossible to get them even with unlimited stars. A good enough team will be good enough, even for tiering in the top 1000. There is a song meta, with songs at the top earning you more event points, so if you want to earn the most EP, it's best to play as much of these as possible in multi-lives: bestdori.com/info/songmeta

[@qil6655]

Hey, I have a lot of total stars and every time I try to pull with them in Gacha, I said I don’t have any paid one and I don’t know how to transform the stars from the total to the paid any help?

[@jadebayoba7073]

As a intense sekai player, playing this made my entire muscle memory crumble to pieces, everything sounds so offset, the notes even though they are big at max settings they somehow don't read well, it literally clumps up and over stimulates me and makes me loose half of my health The SLIDES, CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE SLIDES?, WHAT ARE THESE SLIDES? I SINGLE HANDEDLY DON'T UNDERSTAND THEM AT ALL The worst part is that Bandori ks actually easier than sekai by a landslide, but how the notes come and how you read is completely different than sekai, i swear to god idk if my audio is wrong or i have the wrong offset

[@jadebayoba7073]

Also the speed, WHAT'S UP WITH THAT? I can literally play on 9.5 on sekai but here it feels so slow tben its suddenly so fast? WHAT IS THIS GAME??

[@luxiyama]

I’m not a Project Sekai player but I looked up the gameplay and it looks like it runs on the same engine. So…no idea why it feels more difficult. If you mean the old school slides, they can be annoying in some songs (like at the end of King or the short ones in Time Lapse), but muscle memory usually gets me through that. I can suggest trying 10 instead of 9.5 speed, playing with 0 sound offset, and disabling this new “low audio lag mode” setting (no idea what it’s for).

[@jadebayoba7073]

@@luxiyama i actually got the hang of it, i just recently realized it was bc of my muscle memory, im use to see different pattern and a lot of notes and not just solo notes, double notes, flicks, hold with the flicks and notes, and stuff, in Sekai is more mixed up

[@megan3088]

How do I change my band group I don’t want poppin party I wanted Rosalina group really bad.

[@ayakaxz]

but i have a question can u repeat what u said in 14:24 because i have a hard time having a full combo😭😭

[@ayakaxz]

I am new to bandori and I've been grinding goal events but i can't do full combos so please what do i do 😔

[@azaki_196_uwu]

@@ayakaxz lmao same, its so difficult HAHA

[@luxiyama]

@@ayakaxz hey, I’m so sorry for the late reply, life got in the way. My mumbling thick accent at 14:24 said “build a timer team”. This is SIF terminology, I probably should have said “note boost”. These cards have a skill that says “good/bad and higher becomes PERFECT”, so it might save your combo. But to be fair, I still make stupid mistakes when playing lvl 21 songs, let alone 27s. Your fingers and brain sometimes wander and mess it up. There’s definitely some luck involved in full comboing.

[@clementeodessa]

@@luxiyama i have 5 timer teams in LLSIF lol

How to get the Counter, Mini Table and Magazine Rack and Sign area items?

[@jennismosa2129]

I don't have any of those yet 😢. Is it removed or do you have to get to a higher level or something to unlock it?

[@izzysleepyy]

my whole game isnt loading i just started the game played my first live the fireworks came and the screen was just standing

[@luxiyama]

I’ve heard of this before. If you restarted the app and it doesn’t work, try redownloading (as annoying as that is). Or reboot your phone.

[@xiaoandyoimiyasimp3193]

Also try to change your device region if you're on iOS. I changed it to USA and it suddenly started working

[@dokidokigaming]

so I started playing this game a few days ago, and I mostly get "great" or "perfect" but my score always is a C, unless I play multiplayer I get a B. Why is that?

[@luxiyama]

Hi, it's prolly because your cards are unleveled, or they're the default 2* cards the game starts you with. Do some gacha pulls to get some 3* cards, or do events because you get some there too, then follow the tips I outlined for maximizing score at 12:10. It's likely B in multiplayer because other players are carrying you.

[@dokidokigaming]

@@luxiyama hi and thanks a lot for your answer :) the cards and everything is a bit confusing to me, but I'm gonna try what you recommended, let's see!

[@minniehitwitter4548]

Hellooo! I’m a beginner to this game and I am so confused on where to get the “Beginners only 4 star miracle ticket”

[@luxiyama]

Those miracle ticket gachas are only available if you buy 2500 paid stars and do a 10-pull, you get a 4 star ticket.

[@orel2109]

I wish I had 4 star Kokoro 💔

[@luxiyama]

Gacha is hell, save up for Dreamfes banners, drop rates are higher.

[@orel2109]

@@luxiyama What are those?

[@luxiyama]

@@orel2109 Dreamfes (Dream Festival) are special gacha with higher chances of getting special cards. They happen during significant events, such as the upcoming 4th anniversary (during Backstage Pass 4 event). You might get a 4* Kokoro during those ones, even one that isn't in that specific gacha banner. I got the few I have like that.

Which is better? A band with members that share the same attribute, a band with members that are in the same band, or just any member thats strong and can be very useful?

[@anon_tomori_mygo]

If youre playing for fun it doesnt matter. But if you want to grind for rank use the event boost member team 😊

Been playing for a while now, any way to reroll quickly nowadays?

[@luxiyama]

As far as I know, it still involves redownloading on iOS.

[@hekrjnbr]

Do I get rewards/cards when I play events (the permanent ones) ?

[@luxiyama]

If you mean in the Story section, no. You can only get rewards in the Event menu.

[@pomegranategirl07]

i feel like this is kinda a dumb question but no matter how much i try to look it up, nothing helps me LOL, this game looks super fun but i don't speak japanese or read it, do you know how you can download eng version? preferably with mobile, if possible. 🙏

[@luxiyama]

Ofc it is, if you download it on a non-Japanese App Store / Play Store, it should be in English (aka global server)

[@pomegranategirl07]

@@luxiyama ah. for me the game doesn't even pop up on eng app stores.
