How to unlock the Self Improver achievement in Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock - Definitive Guide

To clarify what EvoHero is saying:

In quickplay+, select any song you want. Go to the STAR CHALLENGES menu after selecting it. On the left, it has the list of different challenges and such. The 2nd one down, is HIGH SCORE. If you've played the song before (whether on WoR or GH5), it'll have your name listed and the highest score you've gotten. Hit the green button (A), highlight yourself and hit green again.

Now just beat your old score. You can just intentionally do bad on a song, then replay it and beat the score. I did it on the 2112 Pt. 5 - Oracle: The Dream since it's only 2m 1sec long, and really simple. Hope this helps

You can do this with any of the different star challenges -- I did it with the vocal streak challenge.

You can also play through on different difficulties. Get gold on Medium for a song, and then play through again on Hard/Expert. You are sure to beat both the score and the grade.

I really don't get this one...i've played a song on easy and got about 29000 points. Afterwards I did the same number on Medium and got 36000 point. It said I beat myself but nothing popped.

What went wrong?

KEY TO GETTING THIS AND Champion of Challenges IS THAT YOU GET THE NEXT GRADE UP! (so get gold on a song, then get enough for platinum) I don't have it confirmed but being on the same difficulty might matter.

Like some other people commented: You need to improve your grade and not your score so you are giving incorrect information. Down vote untill solution is adjusted.

* Can be done on ANY challenge.
* You need to beat your grade, not your score.

I did exactly what is described above and got no achievement. :(
Are the dead servers required for this one?

You have to set a score, wait for the message to appear that the server is not responding and then view select local leaderboards. Then you can do target play by pressing green (not start).

I've literally been trying to get this with every combination of button presses on the target score menu. I've got a better grade, no achievement. I've got a better score, no achievement. Someone explain the exact science to this?

not entirely true- you need to beat the grade, not just the score. eg get diamond or platinum on a challenge you previously only had gold on. not sure if it works on the power challenge, if it does then you'd need to beat your previous best number of stars.

I saw so many people having problem with this achievement of what exactly have to do to get it, I tried something and got it in my first try

I chose the song “2112 Pt. 3 - Discovery” since I had no progress on it (0 stars in every mode in the song) and chose the Star Challenge: Note Streaker, I did a run extremely poorly No FC and got at maximum Platinum (2 star) in all challenges of the song and got back to song library

Went again to the same song and on the High Score Challenge of the song I waited a while for the message asking if I wanted to see the local leaderboards and then I chose Yes and aimed my own score to beat by pressing Green to start the challenge (not Start, I don’t know if by pressing Start it can ruin the achievement) then I did a FC and got Diamond on all three challenges

Got it with no problems

This one is a bit different than Champion of Challenges. First choose a song on quickplay and score low on it. Try not to get a high note streak and don't use starpower. After you finish the song, go back to the challenge stars for the same song, choose score challenge (target your own score) and start the challenge. All you have to do is beat your previous score and challenge stars to earn the trophy.

the trophy can be stupid - I opened it somewhere 3 times and the result did not depend on any rank that is written about in the description...

broke the record, didn't get a rank increase and didn't get any stars, but got a trophy.

the most important thing is in the second item from the top of the star challenges menu (a type of game without using powers), press the green button on the guitar on your nickname and that’s it - we break the record, we get a trophy. if you're lucky... as mentioned earlier, the trophy may glitch...

Naturally, it is necessary to break a record on the same instrument and the same complexity. Thought, if the trophy depended on rank, you could miss it at a certain stage and never get it...

In QP+ we select, preferably a previously unplayed song. When we play for the first time we screw up terribly. Then in the old challenge we choose our (lousy) result and play with a better result. It’s also mandatory that when you get the best result, your rank should increase/
