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. I didn't have time to play Trails into Daybreak this week so I opted to talk about a track from a game that I played in the past.
Ancient Land
Ancient Land is an OST that plays in Ys Memories of Celceta during one of the fields. This is what I considered the best track in Celceta. It was amazing how all the electronic elements and violin were in the song. It just makes the action game packed and it's one of the tracks that I listen to quite often. It just gets you pumped and I like that type of feeling.Ys Memories of Celceta is an interesting game because two versions of the game were released before this definitive version was released. I don't remember all the details in which one was decided as the real one but I don't think that happened until after Ys 5 came out. Overall, it's a great game and with the party system, it was quite good as a remake. It's also the only Ys game that allows you to view Adol Christin's past. There are certain events that show a part of his childhood and other events that were never explained in the other games. In all of the other Ys games so far, I have not seen any of them go into depth about Adol's past so this game is unique in that case. I do think that the storyline is a bit weak though when compared to the rest of the series. I also believe that the ranged character was overpowered and that was what I used after I had access to her. It made the game a lot easier when you don't have to get as close to the opponent.
This track reminds me the most about Celceta. You explore the great forest for most of the game and it was interesting to call it the Primeval Lands. I do think that the map exploration percentage was annoying though. On my playthrough, I ended up with like 99.8% or 99.9% map completion and there was no breakdown of how the spots were missing. I liked how Ys 8 had a breakdown and I could easily figure out which area but that wasn't the case in this old game. The source of the images is from the wiki page for Celceta.

Current Status
I gained 49k STARBITS over the past week and if you add in the millionaire mission, I got around 119k. It's better than last week, but the longer missions don't give out too much if I get unlucky. I did get an epic card.
Current Ranking
My rank was a bit higher. I did show up during the day to throw down a few of the longer missions but I think that I can still do better. The daily reward has moved up due to the time played.

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.
- Take music lessons when possible to raise skill and reduce ego.
- Having lesson specific instruments helps in receiving more skill from that lesson.
- Have pizza box to store any pizza received during mission to reuse later.
- Buy cold pizza slice if possible. This gives 1 refill every 24hours. Comes very handy when you are low on energy.
- If you have enough of cold pizza slice and pizza box, you will never run out of energy.
- 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.
- 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.
Keep track of your achievements to unlock in game rewards- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
