If you didn't run a bot for most of the Extortion Run (or set an alarm clock to go off every 3 hours of your life during the past 2 weeks), chances are you aren't going to finish it. I never thought I would say this but if you are close, it may be worth the reward points to finish it off. The reason is because the Level 15 item offers +3 stamina points every 18 hours. If you don't build attack or defense, the next best option would be the Level 7-10 item which offers +1 energy. Assuming you spend your reward points to craft during 2X Property Builds and your ratio of skill points to reward points is 1:1 than this equates to about +2 reward points every 18 hours. At +2 skill points per day, in 30 days the cost to upgrade will pay for itself. I'm sure there will be more of these to come and what we don't know at this time is how many of them will Zynga let us craft per day. I wouldn't spend hundreds of rewards point to upgrade this but less than a hundred may be worth it in the long run.
Because the final tier is +3 stam, I must grudgingly agree with you that paying if you're close is the best thing to do in this instance. Zynga sucks!
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI see that you are discussing Attack & Defence Points,
Please be kind to yourselves & never waste your skill points on building up your Defence & Attack as it makes NO difference to your strength regardless of whether you are on 10 k or 20 k+, where it does matter is Attack skill strength & Defence skill strength - this is built up by adding the top inventory items.
Thanks for the tip. I appreciate the fact that I can rely upon you for news and tips on strategy. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteso you think it will stay would hate to throw 40 gp away and then its gone
ReplyDeleteYes it is staying, the instructions say so. In your case it wouldn't be a waste since you would get an extra 2 skill points per day (assuming you only build energy or stamina) so it would pay for itself in 20 days (assuming you buy skill points from 2X Property Builds). What we don't know is how many of these will Zynga let us craft every 8 hours once more come into the picture.
DeleteDon't worry about this Extortion property leaving. I'm more worried about when we will see the next one, haha... my guess is 2-5 days before first server images will appear ;) I'm sure the "COMING SOON" security tape we see on the Extortion run page will be used frequently ;)
DeleteAaaaaaand.... Its gone.
DeleteWelcome to the new "global properties"...where there's no limit as to how often you can spam your wall but where there's no damned way you can finish upgrading it if you don't post every 3 hrs...and where the rewards are worse than before (facepalm)
ReplyDeleteNow that the event is over, I cannot build an item, where is the link?
ReplyDeleteit's under my operations
DeleteThanks, would have never thought to look there until the next operations even
