Legendary Rising Star

After playing Rising Star for a couple of years I have collected a lot of cards. As I have lots of fans I get loads of Starbits every day, so I can keep buying packs. Those are a real lottery though and the rarer cards are hard to find. I do have some contacts though who are willing to do some trades.

I now have most of the legendary people cards having just gained another today in a big trade. I have lots of duplicates of cards, including a few that are out of print and so those have value to others. I am just not looking to use my precious $HIVE on the game, so I just trade within the game. Getting the full set of these will not be easy as I am competing with others and some of the big accounts may want to keep theirs.

I do have all the legendary instruments now, until more are issued anyway. I actually have all the current instruments apart from some of the animated ones. Those are not useful to me in lessons and so it is hard to justify the cost. Saying that, I just checked and the latest animated Easter cards were not too bad and so I added those. That will put me over 700 unique cards.

I am missing the latest big vehicle and there is only one left before that goes out of print. There are some on the market, but the prices are too high for my liking.

It is really thanks to all my unique cards that I am so high in the game rankings. I am third when it comes to uniques, but I have a lot less total cards than most people up there. I am dicing it out with @trentonlundy1 for eighth place. You get paid some SWAP.HIVE based on your rank, but it is not enough to really worry about.

If you are looking to buy cards then it can be easiest to find them on either NFTMart or RSGFam. The latter site from top player @foxon has some neat features to track down which cards may suit you best. You can search for those that give the best value for extra fans or for unique cards you do not already have. In my case that will be mostly records and I will buy more of those.

I keep doing the crafting missions in hope of completing the set of production cards. I need more Gold Panels, but those are hard to come by. You can see that some parts are much more common than others. Developer Jux has mentioned providing a use for all the spares, but I guess it is somewhere down his to-do list. If I ever get them all I may go for the sets of guitar and drum cards.

I guess you can say I am a little addicted to collecting these game cards, but it really just costs me a little time to kick off missions and check the markets. I know other people play for profit, but that is not my priority. I like that the game allows for different requirements and strategies.

If you are not playing Rising Star then I would recommend it. There is no cost to start playing, but it will take you a while to earn much. It is up to you if you buy some cards to accelerate that.

Rock on!
