However, your Combo and Full Combo rewards are available for each difficulty.

Because changes and updates to songs can change their score requirements for different ranks, your rank for any given song may go down from time to time. In these instances, you will have to replay the song and achieve the new score requirement to get your rank back up.
Please check in-game notices for information on changes and updates.

Before playing a Live show, you have the option of selecting the number of Live Boosts you will consume: 1, 2, or 3. After a successful show, your prizes (Coins, Items, EXP) will be 5x, 6x, or 7x higher respectively. Event Points will be 5x, 10x, or 15x higher respectively.

"Live Boosts recover automatically. One (1) Live Boost will recover every 30 minutes, and all ten (10) of your Live Boosts will recover when enough time has passed.
You can also recover Live Boosts using the following methods:

※Default is OFF.

You can increase your Score by leveling up Members through Live shows or by Rehearsing, leveling up Skills, Training, and by setting Area Items to raise stats.

Cut-Ins are displayed for a variety of reasons, and not exclusively for Skill activation. For example, Cut-Ins are also displayed for Combo achievements, Fever Chance, and more. When a Skill is activated, the ★ on the upper left of the screen will flash. This is a much more accurate way to check if a Skill has been activated.
Additionally, if you switch Skill Window to ON, Skill names will be displayed upon activation during a Live show.

There are some Skills whose effects change depending on how much Life you have during a show. One example is a Skill that would typically award a 55% increase in your Score for 5 seconds, but if you have 900 Life or more at the time of the Skill's activation, it will instead award a 65% increase in your Score for 5 seconds.
Skills like this will affect your score based on your Life even when activated by another Player in Multi Live.
If your Life drops below the threshold for the Score increase while the Skill is active, you will still receive the increased Score boost.
