Star Pieces in Umamusume Pretty Derby are important resources you can use to increase the Star Level of your trainees. Increasing the star level increases the character’s stats, making them better in the Career and PvP Team Trial modes. Using Star Pieces is the only way to increase their Star Levels permanently.

Along with increasing their stats, you will also unlock new skills for your trainees to make them more powerful in certain stages of each race. Doing so lets you pass them down when you use them as Legacies for your newer characters. As such, it will help you build better teams down the line.

Additionally, when you max out an Umamusume at 3 stars, you will unlock a new costume for them for free, which is a nice incentive for taking the time to do so. You can also use extra Star Points after maxing characters to trade them for Clovers. You can then exchange them for Scout Tickets and Monies in the Shop.
