mafia wars hacks

1) Welcome to Facebook’s Mafia Wars Game
In your facebook account, chances are you’ve been invited already by your friends to join Mafia Wars, or probably you are already playing the game. Still, what is Facebook’s Mafia Wars?
Mafia Wars is a fun and addictive game where you get the chance to live the dangerous life of a Mafia gangster. It’s like the game SIMs, where you can name your character with the “Don” title (living the life!). The game is a level-based system with an economic engine, where you reap rewards for making the right choices for your money and by increasing your social network. Here, unlike in real life, you are rewarded accordingly with your decisions, and hard work, and best of all, can be played with a few daily invested hours to maintain and level-up your status.
In Mafia Wars, all decisions are final. You can’t even restart the game if you think you’ve made a mistake, unless you delete the application from your account, and let it expire for 60 days. Two months of waiting, and that’s the only time you can log-in again and start everything from scratch. And by that time, you’ll surely find it hard to catch up with your rivals and friends. So be careful on everything you do in this game. It’s no use to regret on any decisions, just make the most out of the consequences and move on.
The first time you play the game, you are given your own Uncle Louie’s Deli, and a bar with your initial stats that you have worked with in the entire game. Here is a quick overview of the stats;
CASH
Yes, your goal in the game is to GET RICH, earn as much passive income you can over the expenses you make. Your cash flow will come from the jobs you complete and the properties you own. In the properties Tab, you’ll see how much your properties are earning hourly, as well as maintenance deductions. A note: Any money stored in the bank will not be reflected on this tab.
HEALTH - Your HP will naturally replenish over time or you can go to the hospital to regenerate your health in a flash. Your health is critical especially in Boss Fights. This stat also shows how many times you were attacked, and how many more fights you can engage in the future.
ENERGY - This is your XP stat and it is your principal source of income and experience. Your energy will replenish 1 point every 5 minutes.
STAMINA - Your Stamina is crucial when you attack, rob (Don’t do this at home...or rather in real life!) or cash in from a hit on other players. This stat also regenerates one point every five minutes.
These stats will be the basis of how you’ll level-up, and all of what you can do in Mafia Wars.

2) Character Types in Mafia Wars
There are three character types you can choose in the Mafia Wars Game. You can choose from being a Mogul, Fearless or Maniac. Each character leads to a Top Mafia ability with unique benefits that may or may not be useful at all times. Just remember, unlike your Don + last name which you can change anytime (for a huge cost), the character type you choose is permanent. So choose carefully and live your life fully.
The Mogul
This character type makes you eligible to be a Bagman for your friend’s Mafia Group. A Bagman has the chance to get double money from jobs. Also, as a Mogul, your cash flow will update every 54 minutes, rather than for a complete one hour for other character types. This is a good choice if you want to earn money fast, but won’t be desirable once you get to higher levels. You want to earn passive money in the future right? Unless you want to be your friend’s bagman forever.
The Fearless
This character type allows you to be a Top Mafia Wheel Man, where you can get the chance to perform jobs at no energy cost. At higher levels, energy is crucial during fights and being a Top Mafia Wheel Man will surely help you level-up faster. Also, this character has faster natural health regeneration rate than the other characters. Though this is a great ability, you have other option for faster health regeneration. You always go to the hospital anytime to heal faster.
The Maniac
You are the rogue Maniac where you can regenerate 1 point XP every 3 minutes rather than 5. This is the best character choice for fast energy leveling. Also, being a Maniac gives you the chance to be the Button man, where you can have higher probability of winning on fights you initiate. The fast XP regeneration plus the Top Mafia Ability makes this character the most popular choice.

3) Growing your Mafia Family
Mafia Wars is in Facebook, and there’s no wonder why there’s a social networking component in the game. You can grow your Mob, or your Mafia size, up to a whopping 501 members. A note, you cannot remove a member once you have accepted them into your family. Also, removing a friend in Facebook will not remove that member from your Mafia group. You can say, “Once a Mafia, always a Mafia”. With this game rules, choose your players carefully.
Though the game only requires 16 members to play Boss Fights, it is still recommended that you continue to increase your Mafia family. The standard principle is at least keep your Mafia size equal to your level. With more players in your turf, you can perform jobs better. You’ll also need your people during battles, and defending your properties against robbers.
Increasing your Mafia size will also unlock Boss fights and bonuses from your Top Mafia Ability. It also increases your potential payouts from jobs and lets you purchase Mafia Mikes along with other strong items you may need. Mafia Mikes are very useful in increasing returns on investment properties. With more people to work for you, you can perform jobs and collections faster, get more special loot and cash, and level-up faster.
Having a big family is not an easy task, and you need to earn a decent living to maintain one. When your Mafia size increases, you have to bear in mind your responsibility to protect them as they protect and work for you. You need to give them their needs, like cars, weapons and armors.
What happens when you have reached your Mafia size limit of 501? It’s not the end of the game. In fact, it gets more exciting and addictive because of the massive power and force you can drive in battles. You don’t have to worry anymore for not having enough people to win a fight. You can challenge yourself by initiating fights with other huge Mafia Families and get the chance to prove how good you are. Also, you can also aim for prestigious titles like the Unstoppable, Napoleon, and a lot more!
Apart from all of this, growing your family gives you the chance to meet other people at Facebook and gain new friends all over the world!

4) Mafia Wars: Level-Up Your Character!
Increasing your level in Mafia Wars lets you get more cash and skill points that make you more deadly from your rivals. Leveling depends on your tactics and decisions, and can be achieved by performing and completing jobs. This can be a complex task or a simple challenge, depending on your mafia size, current skills, game style and your available time.
Each level has job completion requirements for you to move to the next level. Performing jobs is not an easy task and often you need to apply tactics to finish it. It is also advisable to increase your Mafia size because some jobs may require the right number of people to complete the work. For every job you complete, you are rewarded with cash, some collection item and XP points. There can also be bonus payouts depending on the size of your Mafia Family.
For every level you go up and all your Health, Energy, and Stamina are restored to their maximum range. When you level-up, any extra XP left over is applied to the next level. With this, it is ideal to finish a big job with big XP payout, to give the most spillover for your next level XP. Fighting also give 1-3 XP points and this can be doubled depending on your Mafia size.
Apart from the loot and XP you get for every level, you are also awarded with 5 new skill points for every level. You can put these skill points to your skills; Attack, Defense, Health, Energy and Stamina. In the first time you play Mafia Wars, the game will give you initial points on your skills; 1 Attack, 1 Defense, 100 Health, 10 Energy and 3 Stamina. After the introductory challenge, the game places you to Level 2 where you are given new points to distribute over your skills. Use these skill points wisely and place them on the rightful skill you want to improve. The points on your skills will define your character’s strength and survival throughout the game.
In most RPG games, we focus on maximizing one or two skills. This is often called min/max, and you can apply this in Mafia Wars. You can put every skill point you receive on one skill only until you reach the maximum. Example, you can focus on maximizing your defense skills but have minimum stamina. Your character becomes the ideal defense mechanism for your entire Mafia family. You can block critical or deadly attack almost automatically like a Bodyguard, but can only maintain your energy for a short time. The min/max skill distribution is a proven tactic for winning group attacks but never on one-on-one fights.

5) Mafia Wars: The Rich Slum Lord
To make passive income in Mafia Wars, it is best to expand your empire and buy investment properties. Properties generate passive income even when you’re sleeping and not logged-in. Cash flow comes to your account every hour, or 6 minutes faster if you are a Mogul. It is highly recommended to buy properties that give the best ROI or return of investment. This is similar to real-life stock exchange; stock brokers buy stocks that they think will provide the best ROI in the future. In Mafia Wars, you should invest your money in properties that give positive returns to increase your passive earnings. But if the number goes down or becomes negative, you’ll see deductions from your cash account and you’ll lose money every hour. So be careful and invest smartly. The best investment you can get to ensure huge property returns in Mafia Wars is a Mafia Mike’s. Buy this property over anything else (it has huge profit potential) whenever it is available in the game.
In Mafia Wars, every time you buy a property, the demand increases and the market price for that property will increases by 10%. If you buy an abandoned lot for $5,000, the next time it will cost $5,500. It is not advisable to buy properties one by one, because the cash you get from each property stays the same, even though the property value increases. The best way to get huge returns is to buy property in bulk. If you buy 5 Italian restaurants at once, there will be no increase and each will only cost $30,000 x 5. You’ll pay only $150,000 for all of the 5 restaurants. Whereas, if you buy a restaurant one at a time, the first one will be for $30,000, and the next will cost you $33,000, the third $33,300, the fourth for $33,330 and the fifth $36,663. For the 5 Italian restaurants, the total you have to pay is $166,293, but if you the 5 restaurants in bulk, you’ll only pay $150,000, saving you $16,293. You are allowed to buy 10 properties of same kind at a time. To be practical, save up money and buy in bulk to maximize your ROI.

6) Satisfying your Hunger for Power
You’re a Mafia warlord and you have to win or survive fights against you. On early levels, most your energy and time should be dedicated in completing jobs and making money. With ample cash, you can buy weapons, armors and vehicles for your family.
You’ll need the weapons and armors with the best attack and defense value as much as possible. Mafia Wars is a dangerous world and you have to give the best protection for your family against attacks from your rivals. When you are being attacked by someone else, the attack and defense values of your armors and weapons are very important. But when you are the one who initiated an attack to another family, only your weapon attack values matter in the fight.
Swallow your pride and hold your guts, don’t pick up fights with larger families. On early stages, ensure that your family is well armored, and you can pick fights with smaller families. You can also receive money from fights or attacks. The money you’ll get will depend on how much money your victim has. You can continue hitting on a victim until he no longer coughs out cash. If you receive no money after a fight, this means that victim’s money is all in the bank. Robbing properties is also a lucrative endeavor, and the money you get from stealing will depend on the type of property your victim owns. You can start robbing others if you’ve reached level 15. The best places to rob are 5-Star hotels and Mega-Casinos, because they hold substantial cash at hand and you can usually steal 6 figures from them.
An advise, bank the money you’ve got from robbing or fighting others. The dangerous game style you play will likely arouse revenge attacks from your previous victims, so secure your ill-gotten money at the bank to protect your wealth from others who want to get even with you.
7) Love those Bonus Items!
There are four job tiers to start with in Mafia Wars; the Street Thug, Enforcer, Capo and Consigliore. Each job has three mastery levels where upon full completion, you are awarded special loot. These special items have bonus points or stats that can help you perform jobs and level-up faster.
When you are a Master Street Thug, you receive the Diamond Flush, which gives you +1 Energy point. As a Master Enforcer, you’ll receive Cigars which adds 2 energy points to your stats. To complete the Capo Master Level, where you’ll get Paintings with +6 Energy bonuses, you’ll need to be at least at level 34. The Consigliore job tier is the most difficult job to master, simply because you need to be at level 55. Upon mastering level 3 for Consigliore, you’ll get Great Race Horses as your bonus along with +7 Energy points. These bonus energy points may not be much at start, but for speed leveling, every extra XP point you can get goes a long way.
The most coveted items that can be obtained by Job Mastery are the following; Helicopter, Private Island and the Golden Throne. You can get a Helicopter when you’re at level 55 as a Consigliore, and give you 30 seconds reduction on your XP regeneration timer. A Private Island is awarded when you are an UnderBoss at level 95, where you’ll get 5% job experience bonus. As a Boss, the best item you can get is the Golden Throne, which gives 2X energy regen per period.
The Capo and Consigliore require too much time and effort to unlock, that it is often better to ask friends if they have extra loot to share. You can let your family members know what you need or want, by sharing your wishlist (Even though it’s not Christmas!). You can add the item in “Share Wishlist with Your Friends” option you can find in your inventory.

8) The Napoleon Complex
The Napoleaon complex is a title bestowed by defeating a bigger mafia family. In lower levels, it is not advisable to pick up fights with bigger families. But once you are at 100+ level, you can start aiming for this title. This can be successfully achieved by careful planning and surveying. You can start by poking around for people who are part of a bigger Mafia but are less equipped. You don’t need to initiate a fight to find out how incompetent they are, you can just right click on a name and you’ll see on the robberies tab the properties they own and how much they are generating hourly. Generally, those with properties that earn at lower rates have families that are insufficiently equipped. Also, it is usually difficult to equip everyone with high quality weapons and armor in a large Mafia family.
Make sure you have the equipment edge in your crew before attacking your target. If you still have a small Mafia size but believe you can beat a bigger one with weak equipment, you can try the game’s new gift giving system. You can borrow from friends a set of rifles, armored cars, agents and other items to increase your attack value. After the fight, you can return your borrowed items without any fees.
If you are a Maniac character, you can also find suitable targets when you are promoted as the Button Man. As a Button Man, your winning chance on every fight is increased by 5%. With this, you can initiate fights and win most them, and at the same time, obtain information on a rival family’s defense and attack strength.
The Napoleon Complex title is easy to get if you are in higher levels, or when you have reach the maximum mafia size of 501. Though reaching the limit makes Mafia size a meaningless factor, you can turn your focus on other aspects like making more money and having the best equipment. The fighting power all boils down to your total attack and defense values against to your opponent’s. With the excessive money you can generate from your huge manpower, you can buy special items to equip the deadliest gangster army. Now, you can always initiate fights with families with similar size.

9) The Unstoppable
The Unstoppable title is earned by winning 15 consequent fights. This is also the easiest title to obtain in Mafia Wars but it takes persistence and strategy to achieve this title. There is no cheat code or special item available in the game that will make you immortal and invincible instantly. You have to win your battles with determination and consistency.
Don’t go head on to every Mafia family you encounter. The first step is you scout for weak and incompetent players. You can ask your friends to look for potential rivals that are members of small Mafia families. You can start a fight with a Mafia family with only 2 members and easily win the battle. You can also look for members that are in level 2-3 as your targets, because they likely have no special armor or special yet.
In Mafia Wars, you always have 10% chance to get a critical hit when you initiate an attack. There is no way to reduce this percentage regardless of your attack and defense stats, unless of course, if you are a Maniac or a Button Man, which increases your chances of winning a fight you initiate by 5%. Knowing this, the best advice is not to attack any Bodyguards. The Bodyguard position has defense advantages, a 5% chance to automatically block or defend an attack. Unfortunately, there is no way you can instantly know that you’re target is a bodyguard or not, other than initiating or losing a fight. But you can poke around by checking your target’s stats. You can click on their name and the character’s fighting history is displayed. Statistically, if your target has none or only a few fights won, he’s probably not a bodyguard and unlikely to have high defense stats.
The easiest way to be Unstoppable is to make your family well-equipped and then find families with fewer members and less bodyguards. Level-differences is not a winning factor for this title. The principle is; the smaller the crew, the higher your chances of winning.

10) Mad for Skill Points
Apart from the 5 skill points awarded for every level you achieve in the game, you can also get extra skill points from completing job mastery levels and using the Godfather. With every skill points crucial for your character’s survival in the entire game, you need to focus on getting these extra skill points along with XP spill-over at each level-up.
Job Mastery is very important and has its perks, like an additional skill point, special item award, and bragging rights among your family members showing how much you have achieved. All jobs are mastered in three levels and in each level completion. You are awarded an extra skill point. To finish each job level, you have to master and complete all jobs on the level you are currently at.
You can start as a Street Thug, and then move on as the Skilled Street Thug, Master Street Thug and lastly, as Master Boss. The Master Boss job level is the highest job title in the game.
The Godfather (not the movie) is the best reward point system of Mafia Wars. At game start-up you are awarded with your initial stats, along with 10 Godfather points. You earn 1 Godfather point for every level-up you obtain. You can also obtain rewards point by purchasing them.
Godfather reward points are the rarest commodity in the game, so decide wisely how you spend them. Mafia Wars releases a new special item every few weeks that is available for purchase for only 36 hours and for a minimum of 25 rewards points. These special items are rare and exceptionally useful compared to the best items you can get from a Mafia store or from the jobs you complete. Because of the special stats in these rare commodities, they are very expensive to buy from others. So when you have enough Godfather reward points, spend it on these special rare items that will surely help you in leveling and future fights.
The godfather can also be used to refill your stats; for health, energy, and stamina. Using the Godfather for your stamina will be useful during battles. It is not advisable to refill your Health and Energy with your reward points. Your health will regenerate naturally over time and besides you can always go to the hospital to heal. You can also use Energy Paks when you have low energy.
