Mafia wars is an awesome game but the reason that it is so addictive I think, is because you really need to think about what you are doing and have a very good head for strategy if you want to get the most energy in mafia wars.I revised Mafia Wars Strategy Levels 100+ (energy >400),Here’s a screenshot of my profil:

For the most part I followed the advice I gave in my original blog – I dumped most of my profile points into energy. When I first started playing, however, I didn’t follow this strategy because I didn’t know any better. This is why you’ll see I have a fairly well built-up attack, defense, and stamina.

Happy Halloween to all of you! Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year and has been since I was just a little mobling.

The Mafia Wars Halloween loot weekend started as expected this morning. These are 8 limited edition items that drop randomly from any job in game. The easiest way to collect these is to do the “Mugging” job in the “Street Thug” tier. These have a chance to drop every time you do a job. You also have a chance to collect these during fighting.

In other happenings for Halloween we have been given a special Limited Time Job

Rob A Candy Truck

Completion of the job awards the following:

Treat Bag -  18 Attack / 15 Defense

All in all not too bad of an item, believe me there are worse items that come out of crates that you have to pay Godfather points for. The only catch to this job is that it can only be done once per day but each completion award 75% job mastery

Of course you can also get your hands on some pretty decent items just by doing jobs during the Halloween event. Here is a list.

Weapons:

Frankenstein Poker Chips: 22 attack, 10 defense

This guide is based on the assumption you will MASTER a tier before touching the next one. This is called the Vertical Job Mastery. There is another strategy for moscow I will call the Horizontal Job Mastery.

When a job name is listed, it means sell the items Right After Mastering Tier 3 of said job. When nothing is said, sell it after mastering the whole tier. Also, I cut three zeroes out of all prices, and replaced by the multiple indicator K or M whenever convenient.

The odds are pretty good that you’ve not only played Mafia Wars at some point, but that you’ve pined over the best way to build and succeed with your Mafia, while not actually pouring your hard earned cash into unnecessary investments, such as the Godfather points that so many players seem to rack up so easily. Lucky for you, there are many ways to get those points, and to make them go further without having to spend a single dime doing it. Here are the best ways to get ahead legitimately:

1. Play the Game Daily

One of the least likely, but still worthwhile ways to get Godfather points is to just logon to the game each day and pick your lottery numbers. By playing daily, you up the chances that you will win extra points without actually having to do anything. It may seem like a longshot, but over the course of a year or so, those odds will stack up and eventually you’ll get at least a few out of the deal.

2. Do the Offers, but Carefully

The offers are always good ways to get Godfather points, but you need to be careful not to give away any personal information, lest you start getting inundated with spam. Stay clear of any ‘free trial’ offers because you don’t want to get the monthly fees tacked on when you forget to turn them off. You also don’t want to be giving out you credit card number. If you’re picky about which offers you choose to sign up for, you can significantly reduce the chances that you actually end up spending money for those points.

3. Use Fake Contact Details

A simple way to get around paying cash or getting stuck with spam for your points is to use fake contact information. Set up a few fake email addresses and use those to sign up for things. They will load up with spam quickly and you can forget about them when you are done. It takes a little extra time, but it’s well worth it if you never have to sort through all that junk mail you’re going to inevitably get when you fill out those offer forms.

If you do it properly, you can get as many Godfather points as you ever need without having to spend a single dime doing it, or worry about having your email inbox overloaded with unwanted messages from all those companies you’re signing up for. Then, it’ll be time to start knocking off your opponents one by one.
