Face It: Secret District Walkthrough

Share:

The 24th Secret District is called Face It and is based in Brazil. It will be around for a total of 14 days. This is one of the best Secret Districts we have seen in a while. It offers a job with a ratio of 2.43 and doesn’t require consumables or currency. Zynga better not nerf this!
With an eye for imperfections, Nurse Nicolasa has a knack for getting rid of them. If you hate needles, beware - she's far from being gentle. Take her down before she 'takes care' of you for good.

To access Face It, use the Home Page banner, the Brazil Job Page or the Travel Menu.

There are a total of 9 jobs and 4 levels of mastery. There are no equipment items to purchase for Secret District jobs but 4 of them will require currency.  Below are the descriptions, requirements, payouts and ratios for each level.

The mastery percentages, currency requirements and ratios are listed below in chart form. The best job offers a 2.43 ratio and unbelievably doesn’t require consumables!

Hopefully you have some Brazil Real in the bank. Jobs 2, 4, 5 and 8 require quite a but of Real per click. You will need a total of BRL$998,120 to fully master the district. Fortunately the job with the best ratio does not require any currency.

Surgical Gloves is the consumable item for this district. They are needed for two of the jobs and can be used as ammo for the Boss Fight. You can accept up to 250 per day via the free gift system or farm them doing the 1st job.

You will need 1 set of Surgical Gloves per click for jobs #6 and #8 .

You will need a total of 130 Surgical Gloves to fully master the district. Use your Strategist, Lockpick, 2X Mastery Boosts and Help Requests strategically and you won’t need nearly as many. If you don’t want to use your stamina for the Boss Fight you will want many more as they can be used as ammo.

There are 4 loot items which randomly drop from all jobs. You need at least 50 of the first 3 items to get the 3 stat point bonuses. The rare item is not a henchman this time. In fact there are no henchmen in this Secret District. They aren’t joking around when they say rare. This last has a very low drop rate.  If you want a lot of any item, stay on the Bronze Level.

The drop rate of loot items aren’t bad on the Bronze Level. The Red-tailed Amazon is the worst and 2X Loot Boosts don’t apply. Out of 1,000 jobs, I only got 1.

To maximize the loot drops of the first 3 items, take advantage of the 2X Loot Boosts. The Lockpick Bonus can also help . You can ask your mafia to send you 2X Loot Boosts when the ask button is on, collect up to 30 per day from the news feeds or put them on your wishlist.
There is a drop down tracker on top of the job page which helps you easily check on how many loot items, 2x Loot Boosts and consumables you have on hand. Once you get 10, 25 and 50 of the first three loot items shown above, you get bonus +5 attack points, +5 defense points and +5 skill points as a reward. There are several ways to ensure you get 50 items. You can stay on the Bronze Level until your almost there then move on. The better ratios on the Gold and Ruby Level make getting there more important. I won’t be doing any job expect the last one for the next 14 days, so I/m getting there as fast as I can.

Along the way, you will run into those annoying Bandits.  To reduce your level of irritation make sure your Crew queue is full before starting the district. Some find staying on the Gold Level greatly reduces the number of Bandits. I like Bandits because the Job Bandit gives you an additional 80% experience payout on the Ruby Level.

Scroll to the bottom of the Secret District Job Page to find the Boss Fight. Nurse Nicolasa is the boss and she works the same as all the other Secret District Bosses. You can attack her with stamina or ammo and she is only available to defeat once per level. Her health starts at 2,500 on the Bronze Level and increases to 5,000, 15,000, 25,000 for the Silver, Gold and Ruby Levels.

Ammo items do more damage than stamina and it’s best to use them in combos. The three combos for this boss are shown below.

The Secret District Boss Fighter by Team Spockholm will let you attack with stamina or consumables to include combos. Just set it up to your liking and watch it do all the clicking.

When you defeat Nurse Nicolasa, you get a Smooth Finish. The item has stats of 144/178 on the Bronze Level and improves to 174/238 on the Ruby Level.

For each level that you fully master all jobs and take out the boss, you get a Handy. This item has stats of 186/132 on the Bronze Level and improves to 246/144 on the Ruby Level. You must defeat the boss before you get it so don’t freak out if you finish all the jobs and still don’t have this item.
sd3sd4sd5sd6If you master all the jobs first and then defeat the boss, you will get a combo popup which includes both mastery items. If you defeat the boss first and then master the jobs, you will get individual popups.

If you defeat the boss prior to completing all the jobs, you will get 2 separate popups for that level.

  2. Now the Bandits are appearing on the first job where you loot the gloves. I do not remember the bandits appearing on the first job before. Zynga must be trying to stop the farming for the easy skill points?

  3. Managed to get 3 Red Tail Amazon with about 6k energy.
    Thanks for the prompt info on this district. gonna be here for a while with the nice ratios.

  4. Currently getting NO bandits on "Receive a Down Payment for a Job" at gold level...2.40 ratio (2.59 with bonus's after 150 times)

  5. Another great walk-through to help us. Thanks again! Alas, I have never gotten enough loot to drop to make even the second level of reward in these districts. I'm going to take your advice about the Bronze level this time and stay there longer. BTW, I think there is a minor error in your description: "There are no equipment items to purchase for Secret District jobs but 5 of them will require currency." I count 4 jobs that require Real and 5 that pay us Real. At least we don't have to buy anything [Unless it's something I sold off long ago to get through the Ruby level]

  6. There are also no bandits on silver level Receive A Down Payment For The Job, ratio 2.33 with energy cost 162, this is probably the best low energy job to farm if you have lots of energy/serial and enough cash etc. If you have excess energy and need an xp bandit you can hop down to the last job and unless you have ridiculous energy you should be able to get it done in the 5 minute window whereas on bronze maybe not.

    On the bronze level there are bandits on all jobs except the first.

  7. How do you put double loot boosts on your wish list? They don't show in inventory.

    1. They aren't in the inventory. You need to go to the boost page and do it from there. You need at least one for it to show up. We have a link somewhere that will add it. I'll look for it.

  8. How do I actually use a 2x loot boost? My screen on this new district says I have 5107 of them? Am I supposed to do something to activate them?
    Thanks

  9. I wish I would have read this before I completed Ruby. Now I know why nothing dropped during the last level. I will be sure to go to Loot Lady's school before I start the next bug thing!
