Hands Free Family Boss Fight Bookmarklet

Share:

Team Spockholm has released their new Family Boss Fight bookmarklet and it will help you save time and stamina.  This would have helped a lot more players if Zynga hadn't nerfed the Family Boss Fight but there are still quite a few Families out there who are paying the 25 Reward Points per fight.  I'm sure Zynga appreciates that. A great work around for Families not willing to part with their hard earned Reward Points is to add a serial leveling energy account to your Family and let it cover your expenses.
One of the issues with the Family Boss Fight is it can be time consuming as you need to constantly watch it and attack when the conditions of a low Fatigue and Rage Meter are in place. Team Spockholm has the solution with the Family Boss Fighter bookmarklet. To start using and loving it today, follow the instructions below.


1.  Go to the Spockholm Mafia Tools Beta Page and located the Family Boss Fighter bookmarklet.
2.  Click, drag and drop Family Boss Fighter into your bookmarklet toolbar.
3.  Unframe your Mafia Wars game and go to the Boss Fight Page.

4.  Click on the Family Boss Fighter, now located in your bookmark toolbar. The Boss Fighter will now appear and you can move it to where ever you would like.
To easily move your Family Boss Fighter around the screen, hover your mouse over the title "Family Boss Fighter" until you see cross arrows. Once the cross arrows appear, you can drag it to where ever you want.
5.  There are 3 settings that you can adjust. You can set the threshold for the Fatigue and Rage Meters by clicking on the white buttons and dragging them to your desired minimum meter thresholds. You can also adjust the time in seconds of how often it will check the meters and re-attack once the thresholds have been exceeded.
6.  Click on the "Attack" button and it will take over and manage your fight. It will only attack the boss when the Fatigue and Rage Meters are at your lowest threshold saving you the hassles of constantly checking.
7.  Now just sit back and relax or do other things in real life or the game. The script works off of the Boss Fight buttons so you need to keep the page open. If you want to perform other game actions, open up a new window and do your thing. The Family Boss Fighter will only attack the boss when the Fatigue and Rage. It will also send boosts to your Family members and will requests boosts for you. You can adjust the time in seconds of when it will check the meters 

When the fight is finished, you can check out your totals. The {ASS} Family was really nice and kept sending boosts to me because they knew I was working on this post. We have been beta testing this script for Team Spockholm so the Family as a whole is familiar with how it works.  I had to reboot my computer so lost some of the data but you can see all the work the Family Boss Fighter did. It also kept my stamina/experience ratio high. I did click on 15 stamina manually a few times to get the Rage Boosts in play.
If you want to reset it for each Boss Fight, click on (clear) link and all stats will revert back to zero. Don't clear if you want a running tally of all your fights.
To close out the Family Boss Fighter at anytime, click on the X and to donate to Team Spockholm to help them with server costs, click on the dollar sign.
You can see after the Boss Fight outlined above, I was #1 on the Leaderboard.  My score was 40,150 thanks to all the {ASS}es who sent me boosts.  With the time I saved, I was able to write this post.
We always hope for a Street Blade but nobody in my Family has ever gotten one. For all the work shown above, I got one Superior and 3 Rare items.
We have spent over 2,000 Reward Points and completed a total of 206 Boss Fight and it's as if the Street Blade does not exist. I don't have time to participate in all of our Family Boss Fights but out of 355 items you would think one would have been a Street Blade. It makes me think this is a gimmick Zynga is using to keep the collectors spending and trying for an elusive item that doesn't drop.

  3. HI
    {|nWo|} tried to help one member get high score to see if he could get the bike, but he got the same loot for 120k score (not damage, score) as someone with 8k score.
    someone in our family got the bike though, we think it drops randomly to a player who helps all boss fights with high scores

  4. Same here on the Street Blade Comment. I accumulated over 60,000 points in Boss Fights twice. No Street Blade, not even multiple superior loots. 1 superior and 3 rare each time.

    Another fight when I barely contributed, I got 1 superior and 3 rare. So, it seemd participation means nothing

  5. We tried to take down the boss as fast as we can....hoping for the street blade...and we could bring him down in 39 minutes....But, we didn't get it

  6. I love this thing. Its great to use until some retard moves his rage bar to 1000 and no one else can fight since their bar is 250. Perfect in the right hands, deadly in the wrong hands

  7. actuall one nother thing than ability to reset with 25rps but each would need to select the fighter they want to and maybe the ability to turn off boosat requests so we can just feed the big guns who get better value. i know your not the writer but you do have his ear ;-).

  9. version 1.22 now, how does this checkbox 'Give boosts to random players' exactly work? if unchecked, goes the boost to the highest asking player... or otherwise?
    hopefully they consider adding the option to assign some specific players to whom the boost should go, strong players who are a lot online :-)

  10. v1.25 thanks for the upgrade with the choice whether to gift boosts and if yes, to who!
    can I further also suggest to add a limit of stamina people want to spend in this bm? now is an option to limit at certain points but I'm missing out on the point of it...
