I'm relying mostly on jobs to make money then immediately purchasing gear. Every time I try to save up for a large building I get whacked a bunch of times by rival mobsters. I'm only level 12 but the casino heist should help pull in some cash 12000-72000 a run.

Sweet advice. So far I have been avoiding major upkeep costs to maximize revenue stream. But now that I do the math, I guess you can get more for jobs if you log in every 2 hours or so... So I'm learnin' here! baddabing

Yeah its hard to save up money unless you bank it, thats a 10% fee though, but thats better than lost 50k every hour! So Just bank it up. And also i need help on the BIG jump from Jewerly store being 640k-ish to Nighclub which JUMPS to 16Million! How do you pull that off?

I have a question, in IMOB, your strength really depended on the amount of mobs in your family plus the # of equipments you provide. But in Mafia live, it seems like it depends on what equipment each people has for themselves plus their stats...is this true, so I don't need to buy 100+ of the strongest weapon or something? Cause that would help me out a lot XD

Some advice to help you guyz. JASON BOURNE

General Tips

* Pretty sure Capitalist is the fastest way to get crazy rich. But the problem is that everyone seems to want to fight a Capitalist (because they all know we have money).
* Put your money in the bank as often as possible. That stops people from fighting you and stealing whatever you haven’t banked.

Jobs
Doing jobs is the easiest way to make money. There’s a huge list of jobs you can do to make money. These are the ones I recommend:

* Buy a Metal bat.
* Trash A Car. Keep doing that until you have enough money to buy a Revolver.
* Rough Up Rivals. Keep doing that until you have enough money to buy another Revolver.
* Rig Horse Race. Keep doing that until you have enough money to buy a Town Car.
* Vandalize Mansion. Keep doing that until you have enough money to buy a Hummer H2 & 3 M-16 Rifles.
* Run Gaming Circuit. Keep doing that until you have enough money to buy another Hummer H2. Don’t sell your M-16… you’ll need the 3 later.
* Casino Heist. Keep doing that until you have enough money to buy another Hummer H2 (making 3 total).
* Take Cop For Ransom. This is the best value job, in terms of money and experience, for the energy you’ll use for each job.

Real Estate
When you first start off, the money you get from jobs is best used to buy better equipment (so you can do bigger jobs). But after about level 6 (when the next equipment you need is too expensive to be purchased quickly), you’ll do better investing in real estate. That allows you to earn income all the time, without doing jobs or fighting other players. My recommendations are:

* If you don’t have enough money to Construct Buildings, then buy one piece of Land. But don’t stock up on Land. They’re not efficient, so just buy 1 piece of land and then save up so you can build something on it. Then repeat.
* For the Empty Yard, the Shack is the better value. The Hot Dog Stand costs 3 times as much, but only returns slightly over 2 times the income. So 3 Shacks cost as much as 1 Hot Dog Stand, but provides 28% more income.
* For the Commercial Lot, the Gas Station is the better value.
* For the Downtown Block, the Commercial Building is the better value.
* For the Marina Square, the Fantasy Resort is the better value.
* Initially the Shack is actually the most efficient (revenue vs its cost). But the cost goes up the more you buy. I won’t go into the mathematics of it, but this is is the roughly how I do it: buy up to 10 Gas Stations, buy 15 Jewelry Stores, buy 5 more Gas Stations, then start on the Downtown Block building types. After 15 of each building type, it’s more cost effective to buy the next level stuff.

Fights
Fighting other players are a big gamble. Often you’ll get $0, but sometimes you can really hit pay dirt!

* The best time to fight other people is early in the morning. While they’ve been sleeping, their character should have built up a big chunk of unbanked money.
* You’ll have the best chance of getting a good pay out if you fight Capitalists. Especially in the morning.
* But sometimes, especially as the day progresses and everyone’s picking on Capitalists, try to fight some Executioners or Psychopaths. They may have unbanked money because they think everyone else will be busy attacking Capitalists.
* If you find someone that paid out a big sum of money, go back to the Home screen (so you can see all the people you’ve fought). Then click on that person’s name, and you can attack him again! Keep fighting the same person as long as the payout is good

Cookie Cutter Play
This is pretty much what I do every time I log in.

* Bank any money I am carrying.
* Go to My Consigliere, and accept any family invites.
* Check my family strength, then Fight anyone who is below my family strength.
* Keep fighting until my Stamina is 0 and my Health is less than 20. If I still have stamina but low on health, I’ll get Dal Dottore to heal me.
* From my Fight tip above, if anyone has a good payout, I keep fighting him to get even more money.
* After I’m done fighting, I buy any equipment that I might need for the next bigger job.
* Bank all the money I’m carrying if my health is 20 or more. If it’s less than 20, I can hang onto the money I’m carrying because no one can attack me while I’m low on health.
* Now I do jobs. Just keep doing the more cost effective job until I run out of energy.
* Then I bank all the money I’m carrying.

Gaining A New Level
When you level, the only thing worth improving is Energy. Because that lets you do more Jobs, which allows you to invest in Real Estate, which allows you pile on the money

Build A Big Family
As you progress, it is important that you build a big family. Having a bigger family stops people with smaller families from attacking you (and taking all your unbanked money). Make sure you tell everyone you know to join your family!

iMafia you can't communicate with your family at all, But with IMob you can send bulletins to each other and etc.

Exactly that way. You give your code out and someone adds you, then you accept and bam, a member ;]

eh

I'm lvl 19 and i have about $450,000 cashflow.
I have 105 members and about 200 of M16/Chainguns
150 helmets,50 Kevlar,and 150 cars.

I suggest you do jobs(i suggest Cop for Ransom)
until you have good cashflow,a decent amount of members,and lost of equips.
Then fighting is the way to go.

I was at level 76 before I reset. I only reset because I made the mistake of basing my gameplay off of jobs instead of fights. I reset because I was going up levels too fast and getting owned. I reset about a month ago and I am on level 36 now. I have more money than I know what to do with. 2 cement plants, a construction company and 225 of all the best equipment for my family of only 154. Be a fighter. My stamina is 25. energy is 18. attack and defense are 61 and 61. I make anywhere from 20 - 500 mil everytime I empty out my stamina. Jobs may make you go up levels faster, but they are by no means good for the health of your family.

BTW, my cashflow is 120 Mil.

oh yeah. and im an executioner.

similar to Mafia - Epic Pet Wars



Epic Pet Wars follows the same mold as Mafia but in a different direction. Click the images to check it out if you want.
