The Raven Returns

Share:

I don't have much time because I'm going to the Las Vegas Mafia Meetup but here is a reprint from the Official Mafia Wars Blog. I guess we can expect to see him at any time.

Assassin Boss Fight: The Raven
He's baaaaack! Ice players on the fight list to pick up The Raven’s trail. He’s very hard to track down, but when you get close you'll discover special Ammo with which to fight him. The more you ice other players in fights, the greater your chances of catching a glimpse of him in the form of this banner in your fight list:
Ice To Find The Assassin
Keep icing opponents and you may actually get the opportunity to fight this maniac, which is presented in the form of this banner in your fight list:
An Opportunity To Fight The Raven
If you decide to attack, you will have 8 hours to clip this raven's wings using the Knife Slash, Bloody Knuckles, & Crack Of The Bat boss fight Ammos plus the new Sniper Shot! These Ammos drop from jobs, fights, robbing, & ices, respectively. Unlike the Shotgun Blast that the Sniper Shot replaces in Assassin Boss Fights*, the Sniper Shot is NOT giftable. The only way to get those is from icing, which works out because you won't even get a chance to cook The Raven's goose unless you lure him to you by icing other players. If you fail to defeat The Raven within 8 hours after you've started the fight, he will retreat to heal for 3 days, after which you will be able to pick up his trail once again.
*Note: The new Sniper Shot is an Ammo used exclusively in Assassin Boss Fights. The Shotgun Blast will no longer be available for use in Assassin Boss Fights, but any previously collected Shotgun Blasts will remain in your inventory and will be accessible in future non-Assassin Boss Fights.

  3. good luck trying to beat the raven in 8 hours, they took away the ability to use shotgun blasts so that mean all of the consumable fall from jobs, robs, righting and ices. he has 55000!! health, with an average of 200 (thats being generous)of his health coming off, you will need about 70 X 4 = 280 consumables. from the last boss fight i have about 20 of each, so that means i needs 50 more OF EACH to beat him, not sure if i have the ability to collect that many consumables in 8 hours, so i am willing to bet unless someone waits it out, or uses RPs you will not beat the raven.

  4. if you want to use combos, all require sniper shot (1 or 2), out of 80 ices, I got only 4, so you have to buy them, 1 RP each in 10 packs... and the 3500 damage combo needs 2, it means 20 RP spent is max 35K damage, but most likely less, 30-40 RP / Raven, beating him 100 times is 3000-4000 RP... good luck for the non-creditcard players! (I am one of them, a nonCC player - cannot afford to spend money on a game, not because I do not want to, this is another point for Zynga to consider - , and wondering what the CC players willl do if all the non-CC őlayers are gone)

  5. Jenn, can we start some sort of poll to let the developers know that this event is too hard?

  6. sniper shots won't drop from icing :S I iced 50 people in last 2 hours, and didn't get 1 SS, i managed to remove 2K hp from raven with those 2 i got in the start and that's it...

  7. I guess the only way to load up with ammo is not be trigger happy to take Raven down, because as soon as you decide to fight him, the Sniper Shot's stop to drop!

    So...if you, as me, don't like to use the RP's earned by leveling up, you just have to stay on Ravens tail, and when fully loaded up with ammo - then you go for the kill!
