Rising Star Weekly Giveaway #165 and Iclucian Dance

in voilk •  15 days ago

    Here is my weekly status and giveaway. I also talk about an OST track that I like. Please make sure to read the rules to qualify for the giveaway.

    Iclucian Dance

    Iclucian Dance is an OST that plays in Ys 8 during a trip to the Eternia in the past. Ys 8 has a variable system where you spend some time in the present and also in the past. The trips to the past helps you understand what happened in the Isle of Seirin and doing things in the past will also help you unlock areas in the present. I like how they combined both parts and it was fun to do both parts. This track is rememberable because it was one of the best area tracks in the game. I can't seem to forget it and it really makes you want to dance. This track highlights Dana's struggle in the past as she is doing everything she can to save Eternia.



    This track reminds me the most about Dana Iclucia. She is one of the main characters along with Adol in Ys 8. She plays a pivotal role in the story and most of the events happening are linked to her. She is also my favorite female character in the Ys series and I liked seeing her reappear in Ys 9 for a bit. As this track plays in the past where you can only play as Dana, I remember this track a lot and this track is definitely linked to her. The top image shows Dana and the bottom image shows the kingdom of Eternia. The image is from the wiki page for Dana and Ys 8.

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

    I didn't earn much as there were a few days where I didn't visit the game. I opened 36 packs in an attempt to get the seasonal card but I failed. I did get 1 epic card though.

    I played less than last week but I was able to at least stay in the ranking rewards. The previous week was just a bit too busy for me.

    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.
