Does not have the same emphasis as the previous chords (255975|3,255975|4,256083|1,256083|2,256192|3,256192|4,256300|1,256300|2), so I suggest it be made a single.
Same sound as this chord: 238426|2,238426|4 , so why not make it a double?
This note has the same sound as this chord: 232758|1,232758|2 , so why not make it a double?
These two chords have the same sound as these two chords: 222241|1,222241|2,222322|3,222322|4 , so I would suggest changing them to doubles.

There are three separate chords up there. All three have the same sound as the previous chords (133472|2,133472|3,133472|4) that you mapped as triples, so this is an inconsistency to map these as doubles instead of triples.
Same emphasis as this chord: 125295|1,125295|3,125295|4 , if not more, so this one should be made a triple.
or a quad.
disagree that its more emphasis. its a stronger cymbal, but lacks the snare or the power the guitar had in the previous note. feels like a solid step down to me.
Again, another one-handed trill that I think should be made into a two-handed trill.
Not sure if one handed trills are necessary for this difficulty and at this BPM. Maybe make this a two hand trill instead?
Game cut off the other part of that: 108314|3,108396|4,108478|3
This chart uses a bunch of one hand patterns (such as 127089|1,127171|2,127253|1,127417|2,127581|1,127663|2,127745|1,127827|2,127909|1) These sections are relatively short short and have a good distance between them and give time for the player to learn the rhythm before asking them to preform it on one hand.There are plenty on 16th streams throughout the file, and these are not continuous 16th OHTs so they should have the speed to perform it. This just wants some control. Its a trickier section of the song, but i feel it is well within the difficulty of the map, and provides a good challenge while not being insanely impossible.
Yes, there was one one-handed trill that I found to be extremely difficult, and it was the second one listed in this mod.
Sorry, it was the one in the mod above here.
Same sound as this chord (101457|1,101457|2), so why not make it a double?
There is no second sound that can be heard on 1.0x rate that indicates that these should be separated.
Same sound as this chord (80870|1,80870|2), so why not make this a double LN?
86412|1,86575|1 - same with these.
double LN makes zero sense in the context of this section. Its a move that feels very much against my style of charting.
I'd prefer to keep the solo holds for the solo guitar in this section. the only real jumps in this section are the transitions between the call and response of the two guitars. similar to https://quavergame.com/mapset/map/18179/mods#mod_1277
wrong link, i meant to say its a similar situation to https://quavergame.com/mapset/map/18179/mods#mod_1275
Well explained! Thanks, this helped me out quite a bit in understanding why you mapped the way you did!
Same sound as this chord (65807|2,65807|3), so why not make this note a chord as well?
Also this note as well: 75935|1
This note, along with 5985|1 , 6639|2 , 7293|4 , 7947|1 , 8601|2, 9254|4 , and 9908|2 all seem to have to same sound as this sound (10561|2,10562|1) , so why not make them doubles?
i have a hard time agreeing to this idea, but this did give me a great idea on how to better represent the building harmonies of this section. I have somewhat implemented this idea, but better.
Very small suggestion, but move this to column 3?
disagree for multiple reasons. mainly moving the note to 3 would create a 43.4.3 and is awkward to play, significantly more than what is currently there.
Same sound as this chord (60580|1,60580|3). Possibly make the note in the box a chord as well?
Chords before (96535|1,96535|2,96701|2,96701|4) and after (99490|2,99490|3) seem to have the same sound as these three notes, so why not make these three notes chords as well?
96535|1,96535|2,96701|2,96701|4 has snare while 96867|1,97113|1,97359|1 doesn't. Its also a sharp change of intensity in the song that i think is better reflected with single notes.

You can ignore one of these, that was my mistake.
