[Tip]G15 Barry's Special Magic Music

• Balenciaga wrote on 2011-12-19 22:52
  New magic music added after G15 update is very powerful if you utilize them in the right situation. It shines the most in some of the harder missions and dungeons as they provide very powerful buff. Here are some informations abou them.
  
  here is more detailed information on the music and its effectiveness for each ranks.
  
  All the above is probably informationt that most people know already. Here is the real tip.
  
  This music have maximum of 60 seconds playtime(regardless how long you your scroll is composed) with each effect activating every 10 second marks. However, do note that you will NOT activate the effect at the 60 second mark. This means that you have total of 5 times that effects will renew each count. This also means that you would waste 10 seconds by playing the scroll all the way through. You only need to play through 50 second mark to use the scroll to its maximum effectiveness each count. To provide continuous buff for more then 50 seconds, simply cancel the music immediately after 50 second mark and restart immediately. In order to keep track of 50 second mark, use the following MML code.
  
  Melody: V15T60L1.RRRRRRRRR2C
  Chord I: V15L1.RRRRRRRRR2E
  Chord II: V15L1.RRRRRRRRR2G
  
  It will play silent notes (so it won't annoy every in the party) until 50 second mark and plays C-note at maximum volume precisely at 50 second mark. To change alert sound, change C to desired note
  
  This provides easier way to keep track of effects for both the bard and the party members.

  Thanks for the tip! This could definitely prove useful.

  Or you could just put t32l1.rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr (etc) into the melody line like the Wiki suggests, and count the spell activations..
  
  Also, you can actually get 6 music effects out of Barry's scrolls, but it involves a glitch. The scrolls are only programmed to give up to 6, though, so you can't get any more than that.

  AFIK, I don't think that code works for special magic scrolls. It does work for those random magic scrolls you get by composing yourself. And yes, counting works but this eliminates the need to count as well as it lets the party members who are too busy fighting to count know as well. and if you use golem to support the party while playing music, you simply listen for that note which makes things easier. you are free to count if you want, just providing easier way to do it.

  It works just fine, but the scroll length won't go beyond 60 seconds (unless you know said glitch).
  Instead of listening for the note, I just watch for the wave of light. Not really any harder.
  But, the method you provided could prove useful to people who prefer to listen rather than watch/count.
  
  It might be more useful if it only played a note on the 5th spell activation, like an alarm. Also, if I recall correctly, the spell activates every 11 seconds (or, it did for Briana's scrolls).

  Wow, this seems really nice; the effects are really good, and the mana/stamina usage isn't too bad either.
  
  Thanks for the guide! I'll definitely use these scrolls for the future.
  Just a small question though: Does the effects apply to the music player as well? Like the mana recovery rates.

  Of course it will work in the sense that you can still compose with that code. But what I meant was that it doesn't work for longer then 60 second mark.

  Maybe I wasn't clear enough. The code I provided does precisely just that without the lag effects should kick in every 10 second mark and C note is played on the 50 second mark.

  My bad. Somewhere I thought I read that it would play a note every 10 seconds.
  
  @Chihaya: Yes, the song affects the user as well.
