Rising Star: R69 Lucy Rare Musician NFT Giveaway #11

The Easter mission is now over so I started focusing on earning starbits again. My luck was decent during the last week of the event because I was able to get both seasonal instruments. If my math is correct, I earn 100k starbits in about 6 days (60k from millionaire daily mission and 40k from missions).

Giveaway

The giveaway choices today are just musicians since I did not want to give away the guitars I use for music lessons. So I picked one of the newer musician cards that came out that I got 2 of during my pack openings.

The giveaway item is R69 Lucy and it has 100 fans, 150 skill, 3 luck and 1 income modifier. I believe that this card will be great for any new players as it gives more skill than fans so it will help keep your ego in check.

Current Status

7-3 Status.png
My stats are going up each week and it feels great. Instead of just doing missions for starbits, I have gone back to doing music lessons once or twice a day to keep my ego in check. As of right now, I have around 5k buffer between fans and skill without any drunk fans. However the random chance of drunk fans can add around 2k drunk fans in one go so I don't consider this buffer big enough if I get more vehicles in pack openings.
7-3 Petrocan.png
I was able to buy three more "Can of Petrol" for 4.5k Starbits each so there was a discount of 500 starbits on each one. Over the past few days, I haven't seen more listed so I am debating about buying the last one just to unlock the 2nd mission on the second map. The third mission requires me to be level 100 so I don't really feel the need to rush though.
6-29 pack 1.png
Nothing really that good from my pack openings. I did get a pack above that had 2 rare cards though. It was kind of disappointing to see no epic cards but I did like seeing the two rare Blue Guitars since it would increase the skill points I earn from music lessons.
7-3 Pan Pipes.png
A day or two before the end of the event, I was able to get the other missing seasonal instrument. As of now there is 186 of them issued and I have one of them. I am not sure why the supply and issued is different though.

Current Stats

Fans: 23331
Luck: 5059
Skill: 35426
IM: 286
Ego: 31163 (851 from drunk fans and 7832 permanent ego)

Current Goals

This week I decided to mix up my goals for Rising Star

  1. Level 100
  2. Top 50 in Rising Star rankings

7-3 ranking.png

I moved up a tiny bit since last week but I also noticed that my rank tends to slide in between one pack opening and the next. So I think many people are opening packs and I need to continuously add cards to get up in the rankings. As part of my goals, I added in top 50 because it seemed like a rank that I can reach at my current rate.

My other goal is now to reach level 100 for the 3rd mission. Of course I will still need more petrol cans because I can do that mission but XP seems to be affecting me more. For this reason, I am thinking of getting an XP card or two to help me through this. I was thinking it would also count as a unique card that will boost me in the rankings.

Of course I haven't fully decided on the XP card and I may take this chance to buy a few rare or common cards that I did miss out on and if they aren't overly expensive on the market. As usual I still plan on opening 12 packs every week but I will make use of the leftover starbits towards reaching my other goals.

Tips (source)

I think the tips are something every new player should know about. It will help people progress in the game and it hasn't really been shared since surya1adiga stopped his giveaways.

  1. Take music lessons when possible to raise skill and reduce ego.
  2. Having lesson specific instruments helps in receiving more skill from that lesson.
  3. Have pizza box to store any pizza received during mission to reuse later.
  4. Buy cold pizza slice if possible. This gives 1 refill every 24hours. Comes very handy when you are low on energy.
  5. If you have enough of cold pizza slice and pizza box, you will never run out of energy.
  6. If you have more fans than skill and you want reduce the ego , you can use a storage trailer to store unnecessary cards. Or you can list the card in market for an unreasonably high price.
  7. Ego received for a particular mission increases every time you play it. The ego is reset to base level the next day. So, try to play different missions to control the ego gained.
  8. Keep track of your achievements to unlock in game rewards
  9. Buy storage trailer (only if necessary) to keep the cards that might have a negative effect. Like a card with high fan count resulting in ego.
  10. When earning skill points through music lessons, you can earn more points per lesson if you hold more of specific instrument cards. There seems to be base skill which is rewarded irrespective of the card count and then the skill increases depending on the number of the lesson specific card one has.
  11. Try taking up many smaller missions to fill up pizza boxes and have extra energy to play more rewarding missions. But you need to have pizza boxes for this to work.

Secondly, this post is a gold mine with all these useful tips and your brainstorming about your strategy and future steps as well... Regarding the XP Card dilemma, I would rather invest in some "people card" for that money if I would be in your place...
