Mafia Wars
Mafia Wars General Cheats, Tips & Tricks
Mafia Wars seems like a simple game at first glance, but once you
get into it, it actually begins to become somewhat complicated with
hits, different jobs, adding members, equipping all of them, and so
on. What do you buy? What quests do you do? How should you
level? These are all questions that are posed by new players, and it
can be a bit daunting. Well, I searched high and low for ways to
help you out, and hopefully these tips and tricks will help those new
players that simply feel overwhelmed.
So you’ve started Mafia Wars and you’re not sure where to start,
well, the first choice is easy enough: Pick a “Maniac” class. While
earning more cash or health might seem appealing, energy is what
allows you to do quests and it is significantly better to earn both
cash and experience instead of just one. That said, it’s time to get
down to business.
DO NOT add to you mafia right away. Yes, you do want a large
mafia to be stronger, but if you are ill-prepared, this is going to
hurt more than help. Essentially, you want to have a “Mafia Mikes”
and a “Bloody Chainsaw” .So say you bought a chainsaw with
a mafia of 12, but then added 8 people, you’ll now need 22
members to buy another one, thus losing out the extra chainsaws
you could have bought at 16, 18, and 20 members. Assuming that
you are now equipping properly, it is time to spend some
experience points.
Ideally, you want to put all of your points into energy so you can
level faster. Since quests are going to be your primary source of
experience and cash (hence why you used maniac), your limiting
factor is how fast your energy recharges. Furthermore, energy
resets every level, so having an high energy and a fast regeneration
can get you to higher levels exponentially faster. Of course, you will
want other stats eventually.
But this will give you a nice start.
Okay, so now you’re leveling at a nice pace and you’re getting those
Mafia Mikes and Bloody Chainsaws when you should. What’s next?
Why, equipping your mafia of course, and this can be done either
via looting or buying. In general, it is better to loot in higher
missions, but if you want to be safer, just buy, and if you’ve been
doing what’s been said so far, money shouldn’t be a serious issue.
The recommended equipment is as follows :
Weapons: Bloody Chainsaws should be available to half your mafia
(since you’ve been buying them every two members right?), thus the
other half should utilize the Chain Guns ,
Armor: Body Armor all around – period. Yes, you can buy other stuff
too, but this is a definite purchase.
Cars: Secondary to armor and weapons, but if you must have one,
the Towncar comes recommended.
This should be more than enough to get you started on the right
track in Mafia Wars. However, before things get wrapped up, here
are some other interesting tips::
Avoid the Hitlist as best as possible. While it might be fun at higher
levels, drawing attention to yourself at lower levels is just going to
get you killed over and over again by high level players. Stay under
the radar as long as you can.
If you ever attack someone and get the maximum amount of cash
($70,000), bookmark them and attack them as often as possible.
When you do start using other stats besides energy, it is best to
keep attack and defense equal.
Beat the Bank 10% – Annoying, but if you deposit
$9 at a time you will beat the system.
Best Early Cash & Experience Jobs:
o Level 1 – 4: Auto Theft
o Level 5 – 8: Bank Heist
o Level 9 – 12: Museum Break In
o Level 13 – 17: Wiretap the Cops
Best of luck, and happy gaming.
