What to spend my RP on and what to farm???

[Swearengen]

So I am about lvl 107, got about 50,000RP saved, want to drop it on something to best increase my atk. My atk is only about 21500 (ok but not great), while my Def is about 30000(effective Def is less).

I have about 130 chainwhips, was saving to go chainwhips all the way. But of course my vehicles stink, so should I go chainwhips or exeleros? then should I farm DD or ECB's?

[Gaming Will]

In my opinion wait for exceleros. I didn't and wished I would have. If your not being beat up too bad now, definitely wait.

[sexkitteh]

Wait - are rpgs no good?

I was planning on getting about 50/100 of them first before the exelero... I don't know though...

I've got 30k rp saved up right now... long haul before either unlock...

Being a crawler, building my econ, I am about around 300 mafia and haven't been beat up in weeks...

Exelero's ecb's combination is what used to increase my vehicles after red light district opened up. Worked out great for me the only thing is, farming RP's and items at the same time levels you really fast.

I've been doing some missions for farming during events... but yeah I don't like how quickly you level up from them...

I've done about 500 missions so far..

No RPG's are awesome too, most everyone is weak in the vehicles department. I don't stastically know for sure, but I would think you get more of a plus in attack in exceleros because some of us are doing ok in the gun dept.

YeaH I think guns are always the easiest area to do ok in. RPG are nice but not a priority.

I may try it, I don't care about leveling if the stats are going up accordingly. Just don't want to lvl and have lame stats...

I'm around your level - 108
I am now saving my RP's till level 115 and will spend all on exceleros. I have about 111 CW's and 35 RPG's but I can always come back to them and like you said everyone is low on vehicles it seems.

Not farming - I need 6 mil for the Red Cascade job and I'm almost at my 40 mil for NC so didn't want to take away from that........

[Dr BoneCrusher]

If you are replacing camaros, ecb's gives you 10att and 13def at Dubble the rate of DD. not a bad gain for a non-respect item.

[iteachem]

I am saving my rp. I am weak admittedly in vehicles and have almost 90K saved up so will buy the exceleros when I get there. Currently level 103. Planning on farming vehicles during events only as drops for tellers seems good at the airport bus. Haven't tried red cascade job yet

not to go off topic but how many mafia are you rolling with? I am around 310 as I am about to start my second NC build in a day or two. But I was thinking of dropping some off after that...

I haven't paid into the redlight district yet to farm it as I am about to start my second NC, then want to get them both to lvl 2 or 3...But farming during an event is always good, I often get stone hammers at the empire univ during an event plus a event item drop.

Looking at your stats your atk seems about like mine while you are few lvls lower so I gotta be careful about leveling without my atk going up.

Dont let him fool you...He never updates his stats in his sig..he is a lot stronger. He can hit anything in my hood and I have a 30k defense...

Good to know. I have been keeping an eye on folks and keeping pace with most but seems like my atk is falling behind. I should IMO be about around 24-26000 for lvl 107/108 and only around 21500 now.

I was almost at 500 and then on someone else's advice I decided to try dropping - so now I am 449 and will drop a few more - increase my stats - drop a few more etc. until I find what my best spot is.
I'm not getting robbed too much and can beat most of my rival list but I pick carefully.
I was given an optimum # for how much mafia to carry but can't really go that low yet.
Are you doing TL goals?

Not really, I have done some but not focused on it. I do hitman goals accidently as I beat folks up mostly during events trying to get event lot drops.

WoW, 300 mafia with 30000 defense is absolutely amazing if you are a free player.
I'm with 20000 defense and haven't lost a single battle in 2 months.

For a player who briefly won 10000 fights.
Excelero, 1200RP 31 A and 17 D
RPG, 1000 RP 36-7=29 A and 14-6=8 D
CW,750RP 25-5=20 A and 19-5=14 D
FCG,800RP 17-5=12 A and 27-7=20 D

Situation would change due to any pve massive loot.

are kindof camping - or crawling?

[Swearengen]

Semi camping / crawling - I am building my econ & robbing selecting building (lofts, collections agencies and lvl 7 LM's) for RP.

[dudeman]

So I am about lvl 107, got about 50,000RP saved, want to drop it on something to best increase my atk. My atk is only about 21500 (ok but not great), while my Def is about 30000(effective Def is less).

I have about 130 chainwhips, was saving to go chainwhips all the way. But of course my vehicles stink, so should I go chainwhips or exeleros? then should I farm DD or ECB's?

Go for the Exeleros. You won't regret it. As for ECB/DD, they are both temporary gains, but later on when you want to fill in your Exelero fleet you might be disappointed with the small gain for the 1200 RP cost. APTs replace Exeleros for defense, so that's another option to consider.


Wait - are rpgs no good?

I was planning on getting about 50/100 of them first before the exelero... I don't know though...

You should get 500 RPGs.

Okay, Okay updated stats...

- What's the APT? I need to focus on my atk gain right now, def next...so probably going exelero

[Swearengen]

Nice stats, being your at max mafia any idea what you atk/def per mafia is running. I am still hanging with 300'ish mafia.

[dudeman]

Armored Police Truck. You can farm them at the Teahouse in Chinatown but I hear the drop rate is not so good, and they drop as PvP loot. I guess they would be classed as "uncommon" though. They don't drop as often as Butterfly Knives, Nail Bats, Boxing Trunks, or Wrestling Masks, but they do drop far more often than items such as the Pimp's Lowrider or M72 Rocket Launcher.

[ShawnBB]

I probably quit this game already by the time my ECBs being replaced.
RPs can always be allocated on CWs and RPGs even FCGs ,if you have couple of ECBs in your pocket.

Actually a little over 30,000. I have a few def bldgs but most of it comes from my equipment and gattlings. I am a free player with some tap joy gold in the mix. What lvl are you?

Keep going back and forth from Chain whips or exeleros. I may just plug it into a stat calculator and see what has the biggest current atk impact.

[ShawnBB]

I have 50 gatlings and at 300 mafia lvl107 now. Looting ECB makes me leveling fast,but I will not regret.
RP ---120 CW, 50 FCG, 40 sawn off, 50 yamaha, 20 NVB, 10 RPG, few excleros,
Loot---50 APT, 35 ECB, 88 bomb squad suit, 8 m4, 30 rusty m4.

Feel like my max defense wouldn't go above 22000 even if I can fully loot ECBs. My weak part is gun defense.

How do you get to 30000 item def? Which category is contributing mostly? Thanks for any info.:)

[Swearengen]

Gotta look at it in more detail but I do have 100 M4A1's...
