Rising Star Weekly Giveaway #151 and The Merciless Savior

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. Please make sure to read the rules to qualify for the giveaway.

The Merciless Savior

Fateful Confrontation is a battle track for the final boss in Trials in the Sky Second Chapter. It's a track that mixes in a bunch of different tracks from the Sky series and it's always a track that I don't mind listening to. As a finale to the Liberl Arc outside of Phantasma in Trails in the Sky Third Chapter, I look upon this track fondly. It was also one of Ishibashi's last works as part of the Falcom Sound Team JDK so that is another reason.

This track is specifically about the Aureole, the Sept-Terrion of Space that was able to help grant wishes to its inhabitants as one of the treasures left behind by the Goddess. The Aurelole was in a flying city and it was fun to explore a flying city from the past. However, I tend to link this more to Georg Weissmann, who works as the Third Anguis of Ouroboros (the main antagonists) and his nickname is the Faceless. He plays a key part in the entire story and he was also the main reason behind the separation between Estelle and Joshua that I talked about in my post about the Whereabouts of Light. The image comes from the wiki page for George Weissman.

As much as I like the track, I didn't know there was a rearranged version and it's quite nice. Maybe I did listen to it but I didn't link it to the original before, but I do think it fits the entire theme of the Sky series. I like that there were different instruments used in the track.

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

Giveaway

The giveaway item is an instrument under the drum music lessons. With 50 more luck, you have a chance of getting more drunk fans and it benefits you if you run drum lessons. Even if you don't run drum lessons, it can help you in the rankings or you can sell it away to someone who wants it for something you need.

Current Status

I didn't get much done between last week and this week. I didn't get anything great from my 12 packs.

Current Ranking

I did rank down by 2 place this week as I showed up a few times for that millionaire mission. I think I would have dropped more if I had not purchased some of my missing unique rare cards.

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.
