Today is a special day to discuss Rising Star. This one will become my note too for these changes.
Full details of this information on @risingstargame/changes-to-music-lessons-increase-in-rewards
In summarize:
Music Lessons won't be free anymore. Starts from "Skill Rewards" 100 or more, We will need to pay a sum of STARPRO to get the skills.
Before: Free to start + Get around A to B amount of Skill in one hour + 40% Energy used.
After the update:
Pay with STARPRO + Get B amount of Skill in one hour + 40% Energy used.
There's no update for energy amount but we need to pay to get a sum amount of skills. Let's calculate a bit.
I need to pay 0.0006 STARPRO for 305 Skills.
STARPRO Price: 30.38 SWAP.HIVE
The price for 1 Skill will be 30.38 x 0.0006 / 305 = 0.00005977 SWAP.HIVE
Thanks to the update from Jux in the #announcements. This one will be a good one for someone like me who likes to buy and deposit. It's easier to calculate that way 😂.
Minimum deposit 0.01 STARPRO = roughly 16 times of Production Lessons (0.0096 STARPRO) = 0.3038 SWAP.HIVE -> 4,880 Skills
How many Starbits do I need? or How many Starbits are worth this change?
If the starbits price is rounded down it'll be 0.000009 SWAP.HIVE, I'll need to get 0.00005977 / 0.000009 = 6.64 ~ 7 Starbits for every ego. Luckily, I have plenty of fans to cover that.
With these changes, I divided my daily starbits reward into 4 destinations:
- Giveaway (10,000-15,000 STARBITS)
- STARPRO (Depends on how many Ego I got, times 2 for a counter measurement)
*Example: 170 Ego gained x 2 = 340 = 350 / 50 x 0.0001 = 0.0007 STARPRO bought! - Re-invest as cards (Half of the starbits left after above)
*Still waiting for FA3 dropped to buy more cans of petrol 😂😂 - Withdraw (Leftovers)
There's also a change in the Rankings. The daily reward in Rankings is increased by 10% from 10 SWAP.HIVE to 11 SWAP.HIVE. It's good as motivation to keep going. Well, I'm still in 143rd and need to do more work for this one 😂
Changes that are not in my mind:
- More Decimal places reward for Music Promoter (4 decimals)
*This one will be useful for someone who's looking to get the STARPRO with STARBITS in-game.
Conclusion:
Do these changes impact me so much?
- Not really, adaptation is the answer.
What will I do after these changes?
- Make a new strategy which is to calculate the best missions to support the rewards and stay in touch with fans and ego. Because every month, I always buy new cards that will increase my ego.
Every fan that I gained through buying cards will be included when I want to buy STARPRO for skills.
My tips and tricks are obsolete with these changes. So, I delete it 🙏
I don't know what happens when I sleep but it's funny to see people are complaining about this. The one who should complain is the top like @clove71. Look what she said, It's truly the best example for Rising Star players. 😍
This calculation is for you who don't want to get a calculator in front of you 😂.
(STARPRO Price x STARPRO paid on Music Lessons / Skill rewards) / STARBITS Price = Starbits reward that you need to get on every ego. If it's lower than that, you're not efficient in controlling your reward. How to be efficient? Open a new map, Collect more fans, and spam lessons when you're still less than 100. Efforts will always be rewarded. 👍
For your information, I've been a f2p player until now. All of the cards I have now are from starbits reward. What you need is strategy, time management, and adaptation. Stop complaining and take more time to adapt.
