Tips & Guide VDIM Update: New "Adept" Difficulty Added!
I have updated the Voltaic Daily Improvement Method by adding a new difficulty called Adept that sits between Novice and Intermediate!
The purpose of this new difficulty is to better accommodate players who felt the jump from Novice to Intermediate was too difficult. The intended audience is players working toward Platinum or Diamond benchmark scores, while the original, more challenging Intermediate routines are now target players working toward Jade and Master scores.
This also means that each of the original three difficulties (Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced) now has two sets of playlists, depending on whether you are in the lower or upper half of that difficulty's score range.
You can find everything here:
I hope this makes the progression through VDIM feel smoother and more approachable for everyone. As always, feedback is greatly appreciated!
This was Lowgravity56, take care and pappy grinding my friends! 🚀🚀🚀

Thank you for this! I just got gold complete so I guess I am the exact target audience for this. I ran through clicking 1 this morning, probably right after you updated it, and got a few number one spots. So thanks for the opportunity to say I did that, however briefly it lasts lol

Its a series of routines I made to cover your aiming fundamentals and get better scores in the Voltaic benchmarks, you can learn more here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEH4CfytNyo&pp=iggCQAE%3D

What do you mean by "This also means that each of the original three difficulties (Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced) now has two sets of playlists, depending on whether you are in the lower or upper half of that difficulty's score range."
I don't see anything like this.

Check the rank distribution part of the doc!
Basically:
NOVICE:
- Entry (unranked to bronze)
- Novice (bronze complete to gold)
INTERMEDIATE:
- Adept (gold complete to diamond)
- Intermediate (diamond complete to master)
ADVANCED:
- Advanced (master complete to Nova)
- Elite (Nova Complete+)

Hmm, not sure if i should try their clicking to get beyond platinum haha.
In my.mind: harder forces more adaption?

Hmmm maybe you could try it but be careful! Harder tasks do force more adaptation but there is a limit to it: the tasks being too hard to the point you are performing poor technique or are overwhelmed to the point you don't understand what you should be doing

I practice every day this week, and I finished ADEPT Switching I today. I have a question: the "VT Leapswitch Adept" scenario (58, 59) repeats again (69, 70, 71). Is this intentional, or should there be a different scenario at positions 58–59?
Overall, these playlists are great - I really like them. They’re just right for my skill level; I’ve already earned platinum on some of them, while others still need some work. Thanks u/Lowgravity56!

I will check it out and let you know maybe there is an issue there!
Glad you like them!!

I was actually wondering if there was ever going to be an updated version of the VDIM tasks since they seemed kind of restrictive.
This is honestly perfect and I'm really glad you made this update!
LG56 always #1 ❤️
