Mafia Wars Stamina part 1

There are two kinds of video game players regardless of what kind of game you're talking about. There are the pros, who study the game (probably harder than they have ever studied anything else) and the casual folks. Casual players always make up the vast majority of the population of any role playing game, and the pros, well nobody pays all that much attention to them really. But even casual players like to have a certain level of competence when they play, although they might not put as much time and effort into it as a pro might. You just wouldn't believe how sophisticated game analysis is for some things, like World of Warcraft. Honestly, it can get a little out of hand. But we're supposed to be talking about mafia wars stamina here, and ways that the casual player can look a little pro with a few good tips in that regard.

The whole point (I promise there is one) is that you don't have to be a pro to look like one. All you need is some pro tips, and the great thing about mafia wars is that it's not really all that complex. There are many elements to mafia wars, but for pros (I hate to admit I often act like one) the shortcuts become apparent pretty quickly.

There are basically two ways to play mafia wars. One way is to go all out thuggery and build up attack power and defense and just whip everyone in fights and wars and robbing. The only problem with this is that it leaves you with very little energy. Not having enough energy means you won't level very fast, so you get stuck winning fights, but only against low level folks - which isn't great on the bragging rights scale.

The other way is to level quickly and gain more resources. I've never been much on PvP in RPG's (player vs player) so the whole fight and war thing wasn't really my cup of tea. I've got all of the property achievements in every country as well as all the money achievements, mastered New York, Cuba and Half of Moscow before level 300. All of that gave me more than 50 achievements out of 74, not bad eh?

But one thing I discovered along the way is that you can probably have your cake and eat it too, and so let's talk specifically about mafia wars stamina. Stamina works a little like energy in that you have to have energy to do jobs, and you have to have stamina to fight. But fighting isn't going to get you very far. You have to do other things to level up first before you can get yourself in a position to be really good at fights. We'll cover the specifics in part 2.
