MT's Camper/Boss Killer Guide

[MattThomas08]

This is a good summary. It could benefit from linking in more of the detailed and more comprehensives threads about economy, build choices, bracketing, respect, bosses (although I think you linked this one), camping, syndicates etc posted by various other people for more in depth and "explained from first principles" information. There is simply too much info about the camping an economy game out there to really cover everything!

it maybe worth including the glossary I posted in case some of this goes over people's heads. I feel, somewhat that this is a good summary for those who know a little bit about the game, but someone who is brand new maybe a bit lost in some areas.

Thanks Ram - I'll continue to tweak it and link in some of the more in-depth discussions that others have covered in detail, that's a good suggestion. I tried to trim it down to make it not TOO long, even though it already is pretty long. Linking them toward helpful articles would be a good way to accomplish this if they want to get more in depth with it.

I'll use my saved reply and link to them...

I just wonder what is the maximum number of boss events you're able to participate in while camping in tier 1, 2 and 3? I'm talking about the situation when you only participate in boss events and build your atk stats, so only bosses net you xp. Basically how many xp do bosses give you?

There's a guide that tells you. I'm fairly certain that if you start at level 10, you can get 3 full boss events in on the first tier

The most I have heard of completing in Tier 1 is 3 boss events, but it requires some serious dedication or a couple vaults of gold. I'm not sure about Tier 2, but if you beat 3 in tier 1, you'll be taking down A LOT of bosses in Tier 2 and 3.

One thing to keep in mind is the final bosses may be going up to 50 soon like MW. In this case, we may have to revisit the strategy and numbers slightly.

Good post, BTTT

Thank you Matt for posting something valuable that contributes to the forum - a pleasant change from the usual trollery, hack complaints, gree complaints and so on. And also, I like the ice cream shops - for newbies the 3 hour collection time means there is something to do more often early on and they look ok too - I've still got my two even though they now barely contribute anything to my economy.

Enjoyed reading all the posts above and would like to point to one missing statistics that I think is very important for a camper. I think the Table listing XP for each level would be extremely useful in guiding a camper through certain events, such as LTQs. For my camper I set an objective of 4k att/def gain per level as an absolute minimum with the average goal of 6k per level. Thus, when I look at an LTQ i calculate the total weapon att/def gain in going to a certain level as well as the total xp gain and stop when xp gain exceed my target for stats gain. Unfortunately CC only gives the number of xp needed to reach the new level while I would like to know the XP of the next level as well. Anyone aware of the table listing xp per level? Would appreciate a link.

Basketball Courts and Ice Cream shops are a terrible investment, even in the beginning stages. There's no rush to get a huge IPH since most of your stats will come from scratchers (as well as a lot of your early cash)....no reason to waste gold on them. Most buildings are NOT optimal at level 5, and not all buildings are created equal. There are plenty you can skip. House and Tattoo Parlors should go to 10 while youre bringing your Italians to 7 or 8. By the time you plant a MT those are just about the only 3-4 buildings you need. After you get your lofts up, you can ditch the tattos and the houses. After your NC1 is as L2 you can sell off everything except the MTs and Lofts, if you want.

Skill points in ATK and DEF is awful advice. Your formula is also off by a factor of 10; it also maxes out at 10. For a level 10, if they put all skill points into ATK it will only have raised their stats by 51 points. That's a couple days worth of scratchers. Keep your skill points for energy and stamina - which actually do something.

Basketball courts and ice cream shops are worth it in the beginning. ANY building is important early on. I am level 1 $145k iph. 2 clubs. I got those by getting those 2 buildings to 10 ASAP then MT to 4 then loft to 5 then club. Saving for second club upgrade. I will have the highest iph in the game by level. I agree about skill points going to energy or stamina with the new events coming out it really helps. Good luck campers!
