Cleaned up page - wondering Y seeing all lines underlined??

==============================

12/30/10 ***TIP*** LV Bank FULL ???
fight and Hospital in Las Vegas !!!
better than getting ICED for IT !!

==============================

District 7 - Area 51

X-22 Peregrine (53/24) - vehicle

Pitbull Sentry Gun (28, 52) - weapon

Pronghorn Antelope (21, 53) - animal

Ares Power Armor (33, 58) - armor

Foo Fighter (37, 60) - vehicle (hard to find)

Diamondback (56, 48) - animal (also a District 6 drop item)

Boss Item - Experimental Exosuit - armor (149, 90) for bronze through (185, 106) 

for Ruby

District 8 - Hoover Dam

Hopped Up Thug (56, 18) - armor

Cooling Vest (31, 61) - armor

Arcturiuon Assault Rifle (59, 27) - weapon

Ripper Assault Rifle (57, 30) - weapon

Balista Missle Launcher (62, 15) - vehicle

Bighorn (26, 64) - animal

Amphiquad (58, 24) - vehicle

Boss Item - Halloran's Helicopter - vehicle (90, 145) for bronze...

-----

A few thoughts here:

1. Halloran's Helicopter - even at bronze - will immediately be your top defensive 

vehicle. The boss - Governor Halloran - gets stronger and harder to injure as you go.

2. Experimental Exosuit - even at bronze - will immediately be your top offensive 

 

armor. The boss - Dr. Hank Williams - has two henchmen. LOAD UP ON STUN 

GUNS. You will find yourself using 6 to kill the henchmen alone on the Ruby level.

 

3. These are some serious stats for drop loot! Would you ever play in Cuba or 

Moscow again for loot? With attack and defense stats in the 50s and into the 60s, 

even Bangkok high end loot (BHEL, to use the trading group lingo) will drop on your 

rankings...

 

4. ...except that Vegas high end loot (VHEL) is not - readily - tradeable. You can't 

gift it, as you can with a Royal Thai Marine, or add it to your Wishlist through other 

MW websites. Though some people apparently are doing it...

 

5. For the energy jobs on Distrcits 7 and 8, you will need TONS of three items from 

earlier Districts in Vegas: Hot Tips (D2), Alarm Codes (D3), and Hotel Security Key 

Cards (D4). I mean TONS. This is like Bangkok on steroids when you needed 

 

Untraceable Cells for a few levels and then Satellite Phones forever. 

 

 

If you've 

 

 

already finished Ruby level on the lower Vegas Districts, you'll see that acquiring 

ONE such item requires up to 108 energy points. And District 7's final energy job 

requires ONE OF EACH (of alarm code, hotel key) - and get 2% mastery per job - 

so your "cover charge" for each job is 165 energy points just for the "tools" you'll 

need to do the final job in District 7, which itself is 144 energy. 

Total retail price for 

that ONE job? 15,450 energy points. So be patient.

 

 

One reader below commented on a strategy I've used in Vegas that I *wish* I'd 

used in Bangkok, and even earlier in Vegas. 

 

STOP FINISHING THE LEVELS OF 

 

THE TOP DISTRICTS SO QUICKLY. 

 

There is GREAT loot here - there are some 

things in District 7 that are as good as the District 8 loot 

 

(Foo Fighter, 

Diamondback). 

 

Or - at least - if you finish District 7's Ruby level, stay on Bronze 

level in District 8 for a LONG time - why not? 

You will get tons of the top loot in the 

game. Your stats will skyrocket. 

And until a new city or District comes along, why 

 

wouldn't you want to max out on all this great loot, which drops fairly generously?

Compare the slow climb of Distrct 7's Ruby level - 309 points PER JOB on the final 

job, doing it 50x, not to mention the other jobs on Energy and Fight Path. 

The final 

 

job on District 8 Bronze level, by contrast, requires no codes/tips/key cards... and 

 

costs 19 energy. 

NINETEEN. 

 

If you have an energy account with 4,000 to 5,000 

 

 

 

points, you can do roughly 250 jobs and watch all the loot, boss fight items, casino 

 

upgrade items, vault upgrade items, Weapons Depot and Chop Shop parts and 

specialties, and the 4 new Vegas collection items (matchbooks, cactus, animals, 

card hands... more on these later) drop day after day. Just a suggestion - hold tight 

on District 8 bronze.

Folks, your Railguns and Mugatis and Hunters - and your Lamangs, Vipers, 

Marines, and Katars - should start to drop into the middle/lower tier of your 

weaponry with these great District 7 and District 8 items. 

Don't fly through it and find 

that you still have Zolotos and Shturmoviks as part of your top 501 items. 

Even the 

Bangkok Faction Store is close to obsolete - why spend your stamina points 

robbing properties to save up Baht to buy a Xiamen Tiger (52 defense) when at 

least two drop loot animals in Vegas beat it? Even the Banded Krait (51 attack) - a 

very expensive B$540,000 - is only 5 attack points higher than all your vipers, but 5 

points LOWER than the Diamondback - which drops in Vegas Districts 6 and 7. If 

anything (since you can't amass 501 Diamondbacks unless you hold back in 

District 7 at Bronze for more drops), you should simply load up on Vipers, and use 

the Baht that you accumulate to buy Kraits or Tigers in the Faction Store. The rest 

of the merchandise is blown away by what you'll accumulate in Districts 6 and 7 in 

Vegas... so if you're robbing (and we're going to discuss HOW you should be 

robbing) it should be in... NEW YORK. 

More to come on that topic.

http://mafiawarsmade.eventbrite.com/ No - I don't work for Zynga and this blog will 

not be a shill for it - you will see plenty of critique and cheats as we uncover 

together the threadbare parts of the game (how's that Crime Spree feature working 

out for everyone??). But this event sounds like fun.

** Beat the Fed - TIP ** 8/17/2010

===================================================

8/9/10 ★ Vinnie Vici ★ [~µ] GF: 

boss lvl 5....

 1. stop mwap

2. fill up all boss items (stun guns, shivs...) to 10

3. open up the browser e.g. 4 times

4. go to vegas boss district with all browser.

5. !NEVER leave the boss disctrict with any browser! you have to stay there!

6. in browser window 1-3 attack the boss (the attack window is now open)

7. the last browser window is to farm stun guns/shivs/grenades

the trick is now you have 30 stun guns, 30 shivs, 30 grenades....

this is why:

at the first browser window you can use now all stun guns/shivs/grenades (but care if you get killed its over).

if you are out of stun guns you can now continue @ the second browser window to use stun guns. the only thing is that you need to farm the stun guns for the second window/third window.... in the last browser window (without leaving district).

btw you don't need to count if you have 10 again cuz if you click on use stun gun @ the second window nothing will happen if you don't have one....

henchmens stay dead, boss don't get health backaa
