Need advice from experienced players

[JohnDough]

First off, I am level 29. Over 5k Attack, roughly 5k defense.

My goal is to increase my iph, I am not camping. Most of my money for upgrades comes from other players. however everyone in my rivals list is banking their cash and I cannot get money this way any more.

So my question is, what would be the best way to pull in some cash. Should I increase my allies(56) to get new rivals?
or is there any other ways to generate some cash to afford these upgrades?

[JohnDough]

I should add that I am upgrading movie theathers. But with my iph being around 10k it will take days to afford the million dollar upgrades.

Look for people with mohawks and liberty spikes. These players tend to have good economies.

When I was looking for money I looked for the forums as well, and the first thing you're going to want to do to pull in more cash is build 2 movie theaters. These are buildings which at level 2 earn 3x as much as the initial return and at level 3 pull in 6x as much as level 1 does. Then you're going to want to increase your mafia to 100 and build some lofts. These are the same type of buildings as movie theaters and these will draw in lots of money per hour as they are 12 hour buildings. That should keep you on path for a good while down the road

The important thing is getting these to level 2 and 3 as fast as possible. You will have a long build time on the lofts, about 90 some odd hours so just be ready for that.

This is what was suggested to me and I hope you can find the same path as was provided to me This is open for interpretation as I am in no way as experienced as many of the top income per hour players but I thought i'd give my opinion

Silly :P

Players with strange names tend to range from sh!t economies to good economies so looking for people judging by their names could take a while so just stick with people with mohawks and liberty spikes.

Instead of straight up camping - crawl... basically attack X amount of players a day and keep it at that.

Both your Attack and Defense are not good and your iph is terrible...

Don't do missions. Just focus on upgrading your buildings a bit...

Weird you say my Attack and defense are not good. I have not lost a battle in weeks and have yet to come across someone at my level with higher stats.


So what would you consider to be a good attack and defense for a level 29 player?

There are some people with much lower level with insane attack and defense O.o There are people with higher attack and defense but the bracketing scheme prevents you from seeing them but they exist.

Actually, I disagree with Sexkitten here. Your att/def stats are actually pretty good for your level. They're not insanely good, but I would bet that you don't lose many robs/attacks.

I would say you are right, but those low level with way higher attacks are people with more than 1 account.. They have pitched tents because they weren't happy with the way their original account went. I have only 1 account.

I personally say you should take the route I took which is when you feel ready jump to 100 mafia and build some lofts. Those will give you some quick cash with 12 hour collections. Rob every clothing store, loft, warehouse, and meat factory you can find, these give the most RP, some up to 15 and more on a hit. Clothing stores sometimes even give 3x hits. Use this massive influx in respect points to buy some of the respect gear, or save it for later levels when chain whips, exceleros, and RPGs are unlocked (not in that order). That's basically my gameplan.

Warehouses and meat factories have too many xp against rp gained...that will move him along faster

How fast do you want to level? Lofts give by far best return on rp/xp...credits and even laundry will give nice ratio on this front...
Dominicans are nice cash cows for LL...i forget all details of unlocks but the 'crawl' as opposed to the 'camp' is the way to go cuz you can set goals, accomplish them...and not be moving too fast to attack multiple objectives at one time (like build att/def and iph simultaneously...
Internets, brownstones, beachsides are pretty solid...flower shop...id def go lofts cuz those are respectable end game money bldgs and nothing else i just mentioned is...so expect that most of what you do below level 100 bldgs you will end up selling if you want a sensible game plan later on...

[PawnXIIX]

Agreed with the warehouse + meat factory thing but clothing stores are still a very viable option of getting mass XP. Even now up here at level 129 almost every hood I visit has them...and NOBODY robs them. I'm so confused ._.

Have you already gotten your laundromats to level 10? They are a very important engine for starting out. Eventually you will have the income to phase them out but $826 every 5 minutes is a great starting platform for increasing your revenue.
