    how do I keep my attack up, but level down

    Just ran into a problem. I guess a level 100 with 2mil attack is weak. Been playing for 3 ta 4 months. What can I do different to gain more attack without leveling up. ? Someone told me 15 mil is the norm for a level 100..

    Im there with you bradharvy. I'm a bit higher attack, but no where near 15 mil. I'm not sure that is "normal" -- maybe it is for campers -- but certainly 2 mil is low (I'm about 4 mil).

    The only advice I can offer is join competitive sydicate -- one that finishes SLTQ's and raid bosses (therefore winning GOOD prizes). Also, a syndicate with huge bonuses will also inflate your numbers. On top of that, stop doing the individual goals. They give you too much XP, therefore causing you to level up too quickly. It's impossible to not level up at all. And in my case, it's hard to have fun without leveling up either. I see and hear of some people camping at the same level for months...never doing any tasks and just growing their income. If they are in a syn, their bonuses will rise from that benefit. This will make them very strong for down the road, but to me, it just sounds like no fun at all. That's just my opinion though. I'm sure there are many others that feel differently. i'd also like to see what other responses you get as they probably apply to me too.

    We finished around 850 or so. Not bad. But I'm with you, what fun is it to just do nothing? But I could see not doing regular goals, just the Sltqs, personal and syndicate, . You in a decent syndicate? Need active player lol. I like mine allot really, just got mad cause one guy lost 165 fights on purpose and won 3. He had to spend gold to do it lol. Idk why. He's a buddy I guess of the leader, I told Em he goes or I take my 3 and go. I'm ranked about 3rd 4th and 5th in our Syndicate. I dumped gold to win the last battle just for the guy to lose it for us, confused.
    So, im looking.

    Watch for things that give xp, no attacking, rob only ltb's no night clubs!, do not do the regular goals in the goal lists

    Check the recruitment forum. I think if you are that active, you shouldn't have much trouble. The one I was just in finished around 950, and it was very good. We finished some of the sltq's (easy and normal, and over half of elite). Finished normal raid boss (not elite). The new Syn I just got accepted to I think only had 1 slot open.

    From what I read on a lot of the recruitment threads, there are a lot of top 750 and top 500 syns looking for people who are active. I wish I could be more help, but I'm pretty much as new as you are. I started in November / December.

    Can you elaborate on this?

    Xp gained causes you to level up, night clubs level 1 give 17xp, and goes up for each level. So you need to learn what each building pays out, not just in cash. You don't want to level up faster than your stats go up.

    An ltb pays out 1 to 5 xp each hit, gold purchased buildings pay better than a night club, warehouse or meat market do

    Attacking gives a variable amount of xp, so unless its a syndicate event, PvP, don't attack, if you need to do that, make sure that the one you attack has less than 500 mafia, the 'thug life rounds' in individual goals when you reach the level that it has it, it pays out xp as well as rp. Any individual goal has them try to avoid xp as much as possible

    Wow thanks. I did not realize that about the XP points varying with buildings, and going up with higher level buildings. That's tricky (and good to know!).

    Your explanation on attacking makes perfect sense, and I think I knew some of that. However, how else to get bricks? Is there any other way to get bricks without attacking? That's pretty much the only reason I ever attack

    Keep playing, have fun, and good luck to you.......I hate to burst your bubble but you are too far behind, you will never catch up, even if work hard and get to 15 mill, by the time you do those at 15 mill will be at 30 mill

    P.S. so as not to be all negative: you are too high Lvl for your stats, you need to slow down. I would stop attacking and robbing completely, maybe some low xp bldgs once in a while for money, ltbs are usually good. Work on iph to decrease dependence on robbing to bring in cash.

    I would think about trying to start again with a new account. L100 and 2M is beyond awful, you'll be a huge target in wars and things like Epic Boss will be unplayable as you'll be in a highish tier of boss health and very little attack. Nothing wrong with carrying on and enjoying the game (as after all, that's what it is) but you'll have to accept you'll always be behind the curve.

    Im an active player that just came from a disbanded syndicate to a syn that old family members put together. Im lvl 124 10.46/9.44
    1 thing for sure is I won't camp. not so funn just sitting. I have main and mini and Im always working Syn goals.
    I only do Norm goals to get me close to leveling but thats done in a timely fashion so as to gain something from the leveling. Indiv stats-
    Atk-29
    Def-18
    Energy-2640
    Stamina-44
    My old mini that Im trying to recover for the last 2 weeks is level 63 with 3.66/3.19
    Focus on raid Bosses for sure because every successful quota met earns you a prize.
    also like the last event that had the Character Crazy Jeff? little energy, little Xp but yields a decent item for your inventory and inevitably towards your stats.
    Also check out Artist Quarter location. locate Blues Club. 72e/16xp loot Crude Explosive 10/14
    I know several other locations with slightly better items but not to privvy to put in general forum.
    Can't help the competition tooo much.

    Phillip is right.. Don't attack anyone and only rob LTB's.. They give 2 or 3 xp but good $$$... Don't do jobs EVER... Join a competitive syn, top250 or higher to start with... Don't do LTQ's

    Oh yeah.. Never rob NC's and casinos unless they're lvl 10 ..
