What's up my fellow Rising Stars!? First off, I would like to thank you all for joining me and welcome you all back to another
Rising Star Freebie Gameplay Update!
As always, let's start off by taking a look at my Career Stats after the last Update!
Career Stats after Week 7!
Cards in Collection: 11

This week, the main goal I set for myself was to earn as many ✨Starbits✨ as I possibly could! So I got to work doing as many missions as my energy would allow!
I did complete a few Basic Guitar Lessons as well, to lower my Ego Meter just a tad, but for the most part, I went for as many higher tier Missions I could!
And, I did manage to earn enough drunk fans to be able to complete one new achievement, and completed enough missions to earn a second achievement!
Complete 1 Mid-Week Headline Slot Mission - 10 Starbit Reward!
Complete 200 Mid-Week Support Missions - 200 Starbit Reward!
So, with that, let's check out my:
Week 8 Career Progression!
Total ✨Starbits✨ Earned: 3,655
Skill Points Gained: 41 from Lessons
Ego Gained: 109 from Missions
Total Missions Completed: 60

Dang, those cards I picked up last week really did help me out along my Rise to Stardom, didn't they? :) Now that I'm finally getting the feel for how everything works on Rising Star, hopefully my weekly stats will only get better!
After earning all those ✨Starbits✨, I had to add some more cards to my collection! But where should I start??
New Cards!
Until now, I've just been purchasing cards kind of willy-nilly. Not really having a plan besides wanting more fans!
After looking around more and trying to get a better feel for the game, I realized that I need to start unlocking more areas on the map at some point, because as of now, I'm still limited to the Home Town section!
After looking at the prerequisites for new areas, I realized you need to complete one Saturday Headline Mission and own an i6 - Mid Range Acoustic Card in order to unlock the next area!
So, in order to achieve my new goal, the first order of business is purchasing an i6 - Mid Range Acoustic Guitar Card! When I started to look around in the internal market, I was very surprised to see how many people were selling this card!
And not only that, but how much the prices vary between owners! It's truly outstanding to see how much worth you can put on something if you want to be able to progress further in the game!
So after searching, I finally found Card #1892600, which was for a "fair" price of ✨699✨, that I was more than willing to buy!

Anyways, now that I have the i6 - Mid Range Acoustic Card in my collection, the next thing I need to complete my goal is a total of 300 Fans to unlock the Saturday Headline Mission!
So, I did a little more digging in the internal market, and found a few more people to add to my collection to help add to my Fan total!
The first card I found was 82 - Sally, Card #1437873, for another "fair" price, for a total of ✨670✨.

With those 2 new cards in my collection, this totalled me up at ✨1,369✨, and after earning ✨3,655✨ this week, I figured that I could purchase at least one more card and still have a few Starbits leftover!
So, I started looking, yet again, for another person to add more Fans to my totals; and after a little bit of searching, I found 83 - Nick, Card #1957848, for ✨700✨!
 |  |
|---|
But, I quickly decided I wanted a total of 100 Fans, in order to complete Licensed Busking Missions from the get go! So, I looked around for another card and I found 93 - Priya, Card #1789224, for another ✨690✨.
 |  |
|---|
In total, I spent ✨2,759✨ on these 4 cards, which increases my collection to 15 cards, and I still profited ✨896✨!! :)
Now, I've continually said "fair" in quotes, because honestly, they are all a fair price, it just depends on how much value you place in progressing in the game! For me, I don't have extra spending money to invest, so everything I do on Hive is only due to what I've earned on Hive!
With having a very limited amount of ✨Starbits✨, they are very valuable to me personally, and while I want to purchase more cards, I'm not in a position to spend all my Starbits on just one card!
Now, let's see how these cards affect my
Career Stats after Week 8!
Cards in Collection: 15
Total ✨Starbits✨ Earned: ✨21,074✨
Fans: 100 from Cards
Luck: 66
Skill Points: 388 + 43 from Cards

I really think that things are going to start picking up now that I'm adding more cards to my collection, and I hope that my stats will continue to increase the farther I progress!
