Rising Star Weekly Giveaway #142 and The Azure Arbitrator

Here is my weekly status and giveaway. As usual, I am just doing some missions at night because I am busy during the day. I was able to do some missions during the day during the week but not as often as I would like. It's been quite busy as I start getting back to work. I do feel better this week though. Please make sure to read the rules to qualify for the giveaway.

The Azure Arbitrator

The Azure Arbitrator is the final boss theme for Trails of Azure. This track is personally one of my favorite tracks in Azure and it's among the top 3 battle tracks that I mentioned before. The other two were Unfathomed Force and Inevitable Struggle which I have talked about before in my previous posts. It's pretty much the best game in the Kiseki series that I have played and it's a pretty long fight. The only part that sucked was the timed portion of the fight towards the end where you have to restart the fight if you don't kill fast enough. That killed me once in Azure and another time in Reverie. Above is the journey entry for that boss that I mentioned before in this post. Demiourgos is Sept-Terrion of Mirage and it's similar to that of a god that controls causality. It's goal was to guide all of mandkind but it was simply unable to understand humans and went insane to the point that it committed suicide.

KeA is an important character in the entire Crossbell arc and I think she is the person I link this track to the most. I won't spoil exactly how she is linked to Demiourgos but it's explained in Azure and expanded upon a little bit more in Reverie .The image above is from the wiki page for KeA here.

There is another version of the same track in the Evo version of Azure. I don't know which one that I like more but the drums are better in the Evo version. I tend to prefer the original one though as that was the track that played when I fought the boss in Azure.

Do you like any of these tracks? If so, why?

Current Status

My earnings were quite pitiful. Life got the best of me and I forgot to log in at night most of the week.

Current Stats

I got my stats and estimated collection value using the discord bot. I also saw a nice little bot to see my current collection value in Rising Star. Unfortunately, the bot seems to be down right now so I can't get my stats this week.

Current Ranking

My rank went down but I kind of expected it given how much I played during the past week.

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 won't 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.
