This is my first puzzle with Nabner lines. Such lines may not contain consecutive or repeated digits. Once more, I like to thank CaptZebraCakes for testing and giving valuable feedback on the puzzle. This puzzle contains a wide range of different variant elements (Nabner and German whispers lines, circled digits, arrows, X). As all of these variants contribute to the solve path and the break-in is somewhat complex, I have put the difficulty to 4/5. Please feel free to write in the comments how you judge in this regard and how you like the puzzle. I wish you joyful solving!

- Normal sudoku rules apply.

- Circles: A circled digit indicates exactly how many circles contain that digit. (Note: This also includes circles with emerging arrows.)

- German whispers lines: Adjacent digits on a green line must have a difference of at least 5.

- Nabner lines: The golden lines are Nabner lines, i.e. on a golden line there may not be consecutive or repeated digits.

Example: If a 5 lies on a Nabner line, this line may not contain another 5 and neither a 4 nor a 6.

- Arrows: Digits on an arrow sum to the digit in the circle from which the arrow emerges.

- X: Digits joined by an X sum to 10. (Not all Xs are given.)

My first circles puzzle! Luckily I watched Simon do one last night and picked up a few tips. My initial logic was correct but I made very dumb mistake and broke the puzzle a few times. Had to rerack and then it all flowed beautifully.
