15 Common Cards, 17 Rare Cards, and 11 Epic Cards for this month. I already bought 4 Epic cards on September 3rd, 2023. I just need to buy the other 7 Epic Cards. Why didn't I just open the pack?

There's a pros and cons to opening packs.
Pro:

If you're lucky, you'll get more than what you want in stats and starbits value with 10k Starbits
Legendary card is cheaper this way

Cons:

When you're collecting unique cards, the Opening pack method will more likely get a duplicate card rather than unique one.
Opening packs take time.

What about my way?
I rather choose to use starbits immediately to purchase some cards that I needed. Time efficiency, unique cards acquired, and if you want to focus on 1 thing like fans you can do it. Just need to find the best rate and buy it 👍. Welp, there are 2 cons in this way:

It's hard to get a Legendary card this way because it's so pricey
*I keep it on Common to Epic with a good price.
Sometimes you don't find a seller with a good price in NFTMart.

If I check how many starbits I need to buy all of the list minus i174 I2 Bar Chimes and i176 Black Tuba (because no seller yet), It'll cost me 317,999 Starbits. Well, that's the price for now... I see that some of the cards are still at a bad rate for me:

144 Weston (1358 SB for 10 Fans + 5 Skill)
i173 Radio Condenser (701 SB for 1 Luck)
i175 NV3 Compressor (708 SB for 1 Luck)
i177 LVB Kit Blue (741 SB for 1 Luck)

I think I wait for those rates to be good while collecting more Starbits to buy the others first. Late update, I already bought an "R387 MC Carver Rapper" when I saw it's at a good rate (3700 SB)🤤.

Sometimes 50 Fans + 200 Skills cards aren't cheap as people see it for skill and IM rather to Fans stats. R387 MC Carver Rapper stats: 50 Fans + 200 Skill + 4 Luck + 3 IM with 3700 SB = good deal 🤝.

Have a nice day~

Tips and Tricks for beginners:

Are you looking for levels?
Music Lessons is your answer. It has big XP rewards among the others and beginners should increase their skills and level first before looking out for Starbits.
Are you a Starbits hunter? a Starpro hunter? or a NFT hunter?
- STARBITS -> Open the zone and increase your fans -> Balance your ego with Music lessons.
- STARPRO -> Maximize your STARBITS reward and look at Music Promoter -> Turn your starbits to starpro in Music Promoter
- NFT -> Buy or earn STARPRO and do the "Promote Fan Club" mission on "Special Missions" -> Get FC cards -> Do the "Record Signing" mission -> Get FA cards -> Sell on NFTMart or Do Raves! 🕺💃
Is skill rewards too low?
Collect 1 type of instrument to maximize the skill rewards.
Ranking Hunter?
- Priority for collecting each card at least 1.
- Play Rising Star and maximize Weekly minutes
- Cards with IM are better than collecting many cheap cards
