Journey at Rising Stars
*Screenshot from my account at https://www.risingstargame.com/ at the time of writing the post.
Roughly documenting my first week
Intro
I have been playing RisingStars for about 7/8 days now. I am a little unsure as to when did I really started, but from my Starbits withdraws, which first was at 15th of March, I am assuming I took around 2/3 days until I reached the withdraw minimum.
On that first withdraw, I sold all Starbits for HIVE as a learning process. Those Starbits gave me around 1/3 of a HIVE.
This was my first and shallow contact with the game on the first 3 days. After that, a new learning period started for me.
Learning More about the game
List of all withdraws, screenshot from https://www.risingstargame.com/game.asp
From 15 to 18, I managed to double my earnings, as you can see that on the second 3 day window, I withdrew 2k starbits on the last day.
Why did it happen this way?
On the 2022/03/16 at 09:41:31 I bought 1 pack to try out my luck and check how much would it improve my game play results.
On the pack I got:
R165 Newen's Kit
I67 Cheap Cello
I63 Cheap Wireless Mic
All the NFTs above gave me a total of 52 Luck, combined.
How did this benefited me?
The luck increase was pretty substantial from 0 base, to 52 base Luck. At this stage, Fans would probably be more useful, but with higher luck, anytime I get new drunk fans, they join in bigger quantities.
With Luck increased this tiny bit, Getting fans during the day was easier, and enabled doing higher missions like Mid Week Support Slot, and thus allowing for a bigger flow of Starbits. Since I was unsure on what to do with the earned funds, I held them until 18th of March, when I had a clearer idea of how did I wanted to progress.
Second and Third withdraws
Each with the value of 1k Starbits. This time i decided to invest in Characters NFTs, going after s bigger Fan Count.
I took my time browsing all the market options accepting Starbits. (I will always try to buy NFTs using the Native Token, to avoid creating a negative pressure on the same).
On my research I was looking for:
- bigger Fan Count for the cheapest price
- Other stats on the NFT that may help in the future, while it still being Cheap.
I found 1 Character that seemed one of the best candidates for his price and Stats.
72 Tony has:
- 15 Fans
- 5 Skill
It costed me: - 2000 Starbits (to get 2)
This improved my stats in 30 Fans and 10 Skill, allowing to perform Open Mic Night pretty much anytime I had enough Stamina. I set the objective for the next day of reaching a total of 50 Fans so that i could do Mid Week Support Slot without the need for drunk fans.
This strategy turned out pretty well and in the span of a bit over 24 hours, I managed to pull 2k Starbits more.
I used them to buy:
- 75 Nile (10 Fans + 1 Skill)
- T6 Cheap Car (10 Fans)
- i48 Bassoon (1 Luck)
- i63 Cheap Wireless Mic (1 Luck).
This increased my stats to:
- 60 Fans
- 57 Luck
- 12 Skill
- 1 IM
On the 19th of March I participated in some giveaways and i was lucky to win in one of them, organized by
On this morning i got the great news that I won the first prize T6 Cheap Car. You can find the post on the link below.

My NFT holdings
Characters and transports
Instruments
This brought again 10 more Fans for a total of 70. Reaching 100 to Busk With a License is now an easy task.
At the end of yesterday, I did some more research on the game I got a new set of objects that I found of utmost importance to deal with as soon as possible.
Today
At 20th of March, I started the day with a tiny amount of Starbits and by the time of writing I managed to get 554 in total.
I have been doing Mid Week Support Slot and 3 Open Mic Night, gambling my luck into getting a pizza slice before I run out of Stamina. I managed to keep playing non stop for the first 5 Hours.
Objectives
My new objectives are very concrete and are related with having a better Stamina economy.
Owning 1 Pizza Box and 1 Pizza Slice became my Nr 1 priority.
Not being subject to total luck, and having the free will to manage food consumption is the kind of power that can definitely set the tides in your favor for climbing on this game. I noticed that the price floor to achieve this is pretty reachable.
Budget to achieve Objectives
1. 1 Pizza Box
I considered this item a priority and will be the first one to acquire. I wil still be gambling my luck finding Pizza, but I will be able to seize its benefit to the full potential
Cost Starbits
Starbits Cost for Pizza Box at nftmart
Cost HIVE
Hive Cost for Pizza Box at nftmart
1.2 Pizza Slice
I consider this investment very important, and will be my target as soon as I get a Pizza Box.
Cost Starbits
Starbits Cost for Pizza Slice at nftmart
Cost Hive
*HIVE Cost for Pizza Slice at nftmart
Budget Conclusion
Overall, for the targeted NFTs, their price in Starbits is lower than in HIVE. This is beneficial for me, as I will be using mostly funds earned in game. In case I decide to move some funds from wax to help reach this goal, I will be pottentialy obtaining Starbits to seize the cheaper deals. This will create positive market action for the token.
ETA
For the Pizza Box I will be humble and say I may reach it in 5 days, yet I will try to make it 3.
Once obtaining a Pizza Box, I will have to study empirically the benefit brought by it, yet I suspect it will certainly help me get 1 Pizza Slice in 7 days at most.
Not sure when the next article will be posted but possibly before the objective achievement.
