Operations Event: Bangkok Business

Share:

The third Operations Event is called Bangkok Business. Players love these events because the experience ratios are great and you can pick up some helpful loot. The Operator Spocklet is your all in one script to get and post links, join, perform and collect these Operations. Use this and you can do many Operations with out all the clicking and scrolling. Unfortunately there isn’t a workaround for slackers and campers but these are finished quickly enough that a few bad seeds shouldn’t slow you down. The best way to ensure your Operations and those you help in will be completed is to grab them from this Operations Help Group. For a more detailed version of how this event works, go here. The basics are shown below.

The host of this event is Bangkok's Boss Suchart who you may remember is modeled after a player named Ritax Nann [1]. Ritax has quit the game long ago but his likeness still lives on. We hope that someday Zynga will come through on their promise and feature Joel Willeby as a new character [1].

Now on to the basics of this event...Click the help mark to learn more details. Event Operations do not drop while doing jobs, they are simply added to your queue. Once you finish the first set of 5, you get 5 new ones with a harder level of difficulty. You don’t get credit towards mastery for helping in any Operations. You must complete your own for that.

Zynga updated the second tab so it wouldn’t be so confusing to players. It’s made clear that the second tab is instructions for the regular Operations that drop from doing jobs (you the ones nobody ever does because they haven’t been updated in almost 2 years![1]).

The following images outline the details of the 5 Easy, Medium and Hard Operations.

 Medium Operations 

Hard Operations

Reviewing the job requirements and payouts, there isn’t much deviation from the last two events. The easy operation  jobs don’t  have much to offer as far as ratios are concerned but all the medium and hard ones do.

While doing jobs, you will run into the Bonus Payment. This was bugged on the last two Operation Events and this time is no exception [1]. You can’t share these items with anyone because they haven’t updated the send page to the current system.  Zynga needs to fix this or remove it as it’s quite irritating.

Like last time, the rewards are the same for all Easy, Medium and Hard Operations. There are 3 uncommon, 2 rare and 1 superior item.

For the 10 days this event is around, it’s not unheard of for players to max on these items. You need to put a lot of time and effort into it but it can be done.

Uncommon

 Leaders get 4 random rewards and helpers get 3.

You want to share your leader rewards because players who click on the requests can get a loot item. Don’t bother sharing the helper rewards because they will always come up as “You are too late to claim a reward”.

 

Use the Stream Scanner to pick up some extra loot items that may help you. Both rewards and help requests are under the “socilamissions” tab so you will want to use the search feature to filter out the reward requests. Type “Get Paid” into the search box and choose “Link”  in the drop down menu. As these Operation dry up, you will get less and less rewards so now is the time to scan.

Once all 5 Operations are collected from, you will get a Hair Dresser which is the mastery item.

Sadly, you only get to keep the one with the best stats. You can dump the old ones in your Family Properties if you care about those.

Once you complete and collect from all 15 Operations, the event is removed from the home page and no more Bangkok Operations will appear in your queue.

If you want to help in as many Operations as possible, use the updated Operator by Team Spockholm. It’s a dream come true for those who hate all the clicking, waiting and scrolling that is associated with Operations. Go here for instructions.

If you’re only doing these Operations for the experience ratios, a little know fact is you can permanently keep them. Once they expire, you have a chance to start over. This will only work if you don’t complete them to 100%. Many players save the hard Operations on their alternate accounts and do them from their main. You can kick your main from the Operation as long as the job doesn’t get mastered to 100%. The strategy for doing this is to keep you leveling with great experience ratios.  The images below are my old Moscow Operations and they are still in my queue today.
