Leveled too fast... Now need help

[Vartains]

I'm level 113 with 16500 Atk 17500 def m/h 35000, currently upgrading my money bldgs, this is what I have so far besides the earlier buildings, 2x lofts @ lvl 2, 2x mt @ lvl 5, 2x Dominicans @ lvl 4, 1x nderboss house @ lvl 1. I should start the upscale club in 2 days more or less. The question is what should I do to bring my stats up?

After the m4a1 got nerfed is there anything out here worth it that doesn't require 4 days worth of energy?

Also Sitting on 110 gold, any suggestions on what to do with it?

I'd spend a bunch of money on crates for the next few weeks or months, you'll be king in no time. Obviously a lot of people don't do that so...I'd buy as many crates as you're comfortable with and farm RP...It's a quick fix at least.

[Joeycool]

Save your gold.

Get another 35 Tapjoy. Spend it on crates.

Reduce your Mafia to 399

[Vartains]

What would be the effects of bringing mafia size down?

[Joeycool]

You would face weaker opponents.

Trust me do it.

Or find a post by Nicholost, check his sig and read his analysis.

Do more PvP. Make sure you fight and WIN, as the key to winning more fights is to start winning more fights. You get Respect points for every win, and if you're paying attention you will also earn progress on goals that will reward to with Respect points, and occasionally a bonus respect item.

Items purchased with Respect points are some of the best items in the game barring gold items. Most of the freely available loot does not even compare (with few remaining exceptions).

[Joeycool]

^this is step 2^

Step one is reduce your mafia size.

You may even have to go lower than 399 because your attack is so low.

[Vartains]

Will I still be able to see the 500 mafia guys so I can continue TL?

[Joeycool]

Not many I wouldnt think... some people have more than 500 mafia members at lower levels. (but at least you will be able to compete stat wise)

It is not how many mafia you take into a fight that TL is based on but how many mafia members you have.

For example at level 10, you can take 50 mafia in with you. But there is nothing stopping you adding 600 Mafia.

[Pikachu]

Definitely drop some mafia members. Less mob means better weapons used. Better weapons used means more fights won. More fights won means more RP. More RP means more RP weapons. More RP weapons means more fights won. And the cycle keeps going...

Like others said, RP weapons are most of the best non gold weapons in the game.

[Vartains]

Mafia down to 399 for now. I'm saving rp for exceleros for next couple levels. I should be able to get 10-12 when I hit 115. Any other recommendations?

[<3 Hz]

Can you take your mafia down below 100?

If so I might try it just for a while on my money maker account. That account is level 176 with maybe level 76 stats at best.

You can, if you desire, remove all mafia you have except for npc henchmen.

Is it really worth to spend gold on crate or building?

[Dreno33]

Is it really worth to spend gold on crate or building?

depends on the building (and your playing style of logging in to collect) and the type of units in the crate (categories and attack- or defense-weighted units)

[Vartains]

How am I being robbed by guys with 5k less Atk than my defense?

[Dreno33]

your stats are probably inflated, Vartains. Do you have defense buildings too?

[Dipstik]

You could also be bad at this... Is there a chance that the person attacking you is just awesome?

[Vartains]

Yeah I have 4 lvl 7 bodyguard agencies, but after I looked at the guys items I have better and more weapons than him

[Daniel2115]

Hey I'm kind of in the same situation I'm lvl 105 with 16110 att 19157 deff and 74875$/hr but I have like 1800 mafia. Do you think itd be worth it too delete that many people?

[Vartains]

Since bringing down my mafia lost about 250k in fights, way more than what i lost in a week with 470 mafia... Jury still out on this mafia dropping experiment

[Dreno33]

The bodyguard agencies do in fact inflate your defense since the number posted of what is says is not the same number included into battle. If I'm not mistaken, the formula goes like this:

BASE # + 1/2b BASE # + 1/2 BASE # etc, etc
EXAMPLE: 10 + 5 + 5 = 20 for a level 3 Bodyguard Agency.

(Source: Found in one of the Best of the Best guides)

With items, you only bring in (max) depending on your level and mafia.
Each mafia can bring 5 weapons (one of each category only) to attack/rob.

If you have more in one category than what you can bring in, it will not be included in the attack number for your attack/rob. Therefore, will be inflated number on your profile tab.

I'm really lacking in vehicles, waiting until excelero unlocks

[Ziva]

My suggestion for you is what I am currently doing; camp out for a while, try not to level up, ie: don't do jobs, if you want to attack or rob for $$ and respect points then you will still level up but much slower than if you kept doing jobs as well. While you're camping build up your firepower by buying weapons.

Another thing that helped me is buying explosives and check to see if any of your mafia have any. As someone said here, each member of your mob will bring 5 weapons to your fight; one from each category. If not many have explosives and neither do you then there's only 4 weapons.

Buy and upgrade defense bldgs also will help a lot.

By the way, I'm at lvl 122 and have 28211 attack, 37854 defense, and $87375 income per hr. Oh, and 509 mafia, most of whom have explosives and a strong weapon in each category.

When you go into battle your available mob is equipped with the items you have in your inventory. You could have 500 mafia allies all lvl 1 with no gear at all and it doesnt matter. They use what you have procured and not what they have.
