Many thanks to the Mafia Wars Wiki page and Top Mafia Fan page for providing the information to help me figure this out.
With two new episodes come 2 new mastery items, 8 new loot items, and 2 new faction store items. It can get complicated when trying to figure out the 6 best loot items to go after. Before Episodes 6 and 7 the best items to own 501 of were as follows:
1. Attack: Railgun, Yakuza Assassin*, Hunter 'Spy' XS
2. Defense: Ultrasonic Gun, Shaolin Bodyguard*, Mugati Sport
*Faction Store Items-The top lootable items for this category are the Shturmovik and the Executive Overcoat.
Now we need to look at the new loot that is available. Since the 2 new Faction Store Items will eventually be placed in the Animal category, I will disregard them for now. These could change as there was already an item that was eliminated (The Hyro Glove 23/53 was replaced by the Raed Armored Sedan). I will make updates to this post as changes occur.
This is the Mastery Item for Episode 6
Choose Yakuza
The stats of this item are better than the EOC (22/45) but not as good as the Royal Thai Marine (33/49).
Choose Triad, the stats on this vehicle are better than the Lloyd Spectre (18/45) but not as good as the Red Angel (16/49) and the Mugati Sport (35/51).
Choose Triad
This item will replace the Ubi and Tanto (attack score=43) as the best lootable attack weapon. The Railgun is a better item (51/24)
Choose Yakuza
This will replace the Shturmovik (45/28) as the best looted attack armor
Mastery Item for Episode 7. The very nice thing about Episode 7 is we don't have to choose a faction side so all the loot is available.
This will replace the Executive Overcoat (22/45) as the best
defensive lootable armor.
This will replace the Zmeya Carbon Blades (28/44) (and Cleavers)
as the best lootable defensive weapon. It also is better than the top defensive weapon (Ultrasonic Gun 22/48) from the Weapons Depot.
This will replace the Zoloto Sportscar as the best lootable attack vehicle. It also has better stats than The Trio Napoli (47/23) from the Chop Shop. The Hunter 'Spy' (52/29) is still better.
The value of this item will be reviewed once the animal category is implemented.
Now it's time to look at what we have and figure it all out. There are a lot of places to get loot now. The jobs, the Faction Store, The Chop Shop and The Weapons Depot. It all depends on how you want to go about getting 501 of your best items. The quickest way to acquire 500 of anything is to farm the items from jobs or trade other items for them. The Special Shops and Faction Store offer better items but they take a much longer time to acquire as they are not as easy to make.
