Without warning, Zynga threw in a robbing event called The Big Heist.
This is cool for players like me who use the Assassin-a-Nator and have completed the Ice Season: 02 Event but not so much for the manual fighters. You would think they could have waited 3 days so players wouldn't have to choose how to spend their stamina.
The Big Heist has a gifting element and we need to send and accept a boost called Rob Squads which are found on the Free Gift page. According to the Customer Support FAQ Page
You'll want to post requests asking for Rob Squads because your mafia members will get one too if they help you. Don't get too excited about this option because you can only accept 5 Rob Squads a day from the news feeds.
Stream Scanner by Team Spockholm broke the bad news.
Remember to use the Link-a-Nator and Get-a-Nator by Team Spockholm to acquire Rob Squads. You can accept up to 20 Rob Squads. I'm not sure if this is per day or total. You can only hold 50 in your inventory at any time.
According to the Customer Support FAQ Page, we can only collect 2 Rob Squads from Free Gifts. This is a typo and should be 20. Once you collect 20, Rob Squads convert to Mystery Boost Packs.
Q: Is there a limit of how many Rob Squads I can get?
A: Yes. There is a maximum daily limit of 50 Rob Squads that you can collect. OF that total you can collect a maximum of 2 from free gifts and a maximum of 5 free Rob Squads from clicking on your friends’ feeds each day.
If you want more, you can always buy 10 for 20 Reward Points.
The Rob Squad is a special boost that will enable you to clear an entire Robbing Board in one click. Players have been asking for this function in the game for a long time so now we know it's possible.
You can see your total number of Rob Squad boosts on top of the Robbing Board. You will also be tld how much stamina it will require to clear it. You can't use a Rob Squad if you don't have enough stamina.
Other than making robbing way faster, there are additional benefits to using Rob Squads. First you get a 20% increased chance to successfully rob all properties on the board.
You also get double the loot for clearing the board and an experience bonus that will put your experience/stamina ratios through the roof. The extra experience is the main reason I will choose to rob for the duration of this event.

Why bother playing the game if you let a bot do it all yourself ? Try Farmville
ReplyDelete@Anonymous.. I have over 4,000 Friends. I have this because they help me do the game better (helping in Wars, Operations, Help on Jobs, Gifting, etc.). However, because of so many Friends, I cannot help them in the same way, i.e. watching my Facebook feed and clicking on all the things they need help with. So, a 'bot' or automator like Stream Helper helps them in that regard, much more than it helps me.
ReplyDeleteUsing Operation War Hunter helps look through my feed to find any Operations or Wars that my Family needs Help with.
I only have about 2,200 Stamina, so while I'll manual Fight in Brazil, fighting in other cities would just take too long, but is necessary to get more Ices. I don't think I, or most people have the time to do that and all the other Events in the game.
So, why bother? For me, it's a puzzle. Trying to get all the things done most efficiently, in the least amount of time. Goals after goals. That's what I ilke.
My question to you, why bother posting if you're just going to be Anonymous? Try eHarmony.
I say go ahead and play the game any way you want.
ReplyDeleteoh thanks zynga, sure its ok to beg for items and be allowed 50 of theses crappy things but when it comes to raven... fuck all.what a load of crap, i get x5 from brazil for 95% stamina usage and you want me to use a shitload of satmina to get x2 loot, the sooner it goes, the better, its just in the way.
