Obviously for those who have maxed or almost maxed out M4A1's, another gun loot item isn't going to do you much good. So my question is, in your opinion what is the next best farmable loot item in either armor, vehicle, or melee category and what are it's att/def numbers?

/facepalm.

There are some Syn but nothing special. Im off to bed rightnow too else I'd try find you some.

Thing to remember is - Body armor can be taken up by 400+ 16/16 goggles. Melee can get 10att from 500 steel garrottes. So only real benefit is finding a proper car

get the 69 35k

Mass buy for now as its better than nothing and buy audis later. or even farm devilish taxis like a noob.


This is why people who buy YH bikes are losers.


M4a1 + garrote + NVG + 69 (audi, bus, exlater) Go the math. You wont get a better attack combo providing your not a noob and bought YH's

I'm interested in this as well. I am approaching 200 of 'em so I've got a ways to go still, but if there's a compelling melee (or possibly car) item to farm I might divert to that for a while. I've been spending RP on Night Visions (have 160 or so), so I'm not as interested in a farmable armor, but if there is a recommendation in that category I'd certainly want to know sooner rather than later so as not to over-invest in the NVs. I'm aware that the NATO Gas Mask is farmable at a decent rate, but not overly interested in it.

aside: Have they always been called Night Vision Binoculars? I was somewhat taken aback when I brought them up in-game store/inventory a while ago to see that. They seem to have been called Night Vision Goggles or even just "goggles" all over this forum. I think I followed that lead and used those terms in prior posts too. Anyone know if that was changed or what?

[ just answered my own question - the name is truncated in the iPhone/iPod version of the game to "Night Vision..." and folks must've assumed 'goggles'. In the iPad HD version there's no need to truncate and the item is clearly labelled "Night Vision Binoculars" ]

Empire University - Fitness Gym - Stone Hammer (10/9) has a .76 chance of dropping per 1000 energy used on the job.

But like Anubis said, the Steel Garrote has 10 attack as well, so its up to you.

Thanks for the tip on the Stone Hammer, Syn. Good to know it drops. I'd been pouring over allhaildiscordia's Job Reward list the other day and was dismayed to later do a forum search only to find that the S&M Choker and a few other tasty items are apparently not unlocked. Does anyone happen to know if the: 0.33 (0.70) Spiked Hammer (melee) 13/8 from the Santa Maria Church in Little San Juan actually drops? If it does, the added 3 atk for a drop rate reduction of just 0.76 to 0.70 per 1k-energy vs that Stone Hammer would seem compelling.

I'd need to spend $700k to find out, so if anyone just happens to already know... thanks!

Eh, I've gotten 5 or 6 in a day. I don't have too many really, only 153 total. That bomb squad suit seems to drop OK, I went 3 for 20 on that.

Lol I do love my m4s. I find my mafia feel better equipped with an m4 in their hands and feel a little less concerned about armour when they do.
That said I only have 300 what about you guys whats the average m4s you guys have?

Preciate the quick responses and thanks to all for the ideas about the combos. Anubis, pretty sure you're in my mafia because I'm lvl 154 and never see ya in my rival list. Im gonna look for you and get up with you in the game about somethin. JJ, thanks thats good to know for later, but right now I'm trying to focus on attack for a while. Syn, thanks for the location on that. As far as the M4 peeps, I have like 436 of those and it wouldn't benefit me to go after any more. Any more ides on this, feel free to throw em out. Good stuff so far.

69 Camaro costs $35k each and is 5/4. Devilish Taxi cost nothing but energy and is 6/5. YH bike is 13/12 and only costs RP. Yeah, I totally see the logic behind your statement. Not.

I bought all the crap to unlock the mission, and only two drops in... I don't know... days. Doesn't seem like it was worth the time or money. Right now I'm still better off trying for the m4s, and even those have all but disappeared.

I think I'm probably just in yet another loot drought. Seems I get a few days of half decent drop rates followed by days and days of crap.

Once I get enough of the guns though, the control tower will probably be my next farm job.

I paid the 15 mil for that Liela chick in the Red Light District. The drop rate is similar to the BW for M4s, which after the nerf of the multi-click deal, seems to be the best rate by a fair amount. The bus at the airport sucks after the nerf.

I have 53 of em now and I think I will hammer on this until I have 300-400, depending on how good the stats are at that time.

Synergy
02-20-2012, 01:42 PM
lol this thread seems familiar for some reason. Max, I'm now doing the same thing you are. I somehow doubt we'll be able to get 300-400 before the drop rate is nerfed but worth a try.....that is unless it's stats are nerfed a month or two from now.

Given that it takes 15.6 mil just to get started, and they haven't nerfed the M4s, I think they may actually leave this one alone.

I hope you're right on this one man. I can see that causing quite the uproar if the stats are ever nerfed.
