Kido - 2010-08-03 1:06 PM One thing I don't really understand...  Why people will attack me over and over in a fight when they don't win anything...

If I fight someone, and get chips/money, I will attack them again until it's not profitable or they die...  But I will get drained from 360 health down to less than 20 when someone will attack me over and over but they don't get any money or anything.  I wonder why?  What do they get out of it?

If I attack and win, but there is no money to be gained, I just find another target...


 experience points maybe ??... when I was close to leveling up I'd fight people just to level up and get more energy.. 

I've definitely done this when I was close to leveling up and didn't have enough energy to do a job.

but I am not much of a fighter.... I think my win vs. loss is about -2000 fights.



Because now they have that nice "attack 5 times" button and it's super easy to fight your health down below 20 faster by attacking people that way.  It stinks, and I hate it...and I hate attacking anyone more than twice if they are still alive.  But with my crappy internet here I have no choice...otherwise it takes me all day to get my health under 20.

Plus they have that new "icing" achievement.  People are trying to get that.

AND....the fight list only refreshes every so often.  If you can only attack a couple of people on the list you have to keep hitting them until the list refreshes again and brings up new targets.

 I've only seen it a couple of times, does it come up after you have attacked once and they are still alive??    I'm pretty much the same in that I only attack 2-3 times then move on to the next person.    I was wondering if that "5 attack" was still around since I don't see it anymore, but I rarely just attack someone

It only comes up if they are not dead yet...and SO many people are hitting the fight list that people die really really quickly.  It's hard to find anyone alive to ice to get the achievement...

I just need one more...and then 50 in Vegas for that achievement.  Typically when I ice someone it's just lucky that I got the last hit...really.

Ugh.  The internet here is really killing me!  It's taking 15 seconds between clicking something and it happening.  So I keep getting killed before I can fight my health down.  I have all my Baht banked, but I can never get the vault (or the Casino) to load so I don't always have my Vegas cash banked.  I keep buying things to keep the amount low, but I've definitely lost some cash due to the internet.  If I could just click faster it wouldn't be a problem...

Two more weeks...two more weeks....

I know, but when I was clicking that it loaded a list of names and most of them are NOT in my mafia.  Seems this was fixed over the weekend.

I dove into those w/out thinking.  I used up all the "tools" they give you too early.  Not sure if we will get more automatically or do we need to ask others to send to us?

I think I might be able to finish by fighting until health/stamina is way down, running away and then paying to refill.  Repeat until boss is done.  UGH.

You just need to do jobs to get your stock of tools replenished. However I have noticed that the frequency of the drops have decreased since the Fed challenge opened up.

You are correct however that you can gift fight tools. The stun gun by far is the most helpful.

That's about my only hope as well, & I'm not paying so I'm pretty much screwed.

So - all the bosses work the same.  you fight until you die.  Then you go back and get health - probably in New York as money is easiest to get there - and go back and do it again.  Their health does n ot rebuild as long as you don;t run away.  If you run away it gives them back 25%.  So just keep plugging and you will get them down at the cost of spending your New York money (or wherever you are riuchest - but I can't spend all of the money I have in NY).

Fed bosses are the same way.  In those you need lot's of stamina though, becasue it costs 2 stamina in each of the first round fights, 5 in each of the second and 8 in each of the third and they get more powerful as you go.  Another important thing about the feds is that a stun gun lasts for two rounds, so you stun, then attack and then attack again before they can attack you.,  Don;t waste stun guns by using them consecutively.  This is only in effect on the feds, though.  Level bosses the stun gun is only effective once.  You get 5 hours to fight a fed boss before they get restored, so don't start a fight you aren't ready to see through. 
You can get all the boss fight weapons by doing jobs in the levels.  Really, though, you don't need them, especially for the Feds.  Save tools for the level bosses.  I am two bosses away from finishing the feds and through the first three stages of Vegas, with two levels of 4 and 5 done. 
If you have not been concentrating on building your stamina, you need to start doing that (along with health).  If you have your weapons and Chop shops built up, you make vehicles and weapons that also add 6 stamina points with the build.  If you do that in both aareas every day - that's 12 a day - which monts fast.  When Vegas started I had 212 stamina and 205 Health.  I am almost to 500 in both now.  You need the stamoina as you go up in Vegas levels because you have to finish the fight strings before you can go to the next level and the 4th levels cost 100+ per fight.

 I wonder if it's other stuff then My health is 200  but both attack and defense are over 1300, and I usually don't have any problems with the boss fight or the feds.

I didnt' know you get stamina for the build stuff... I build both of  mine everyday, and have noticed my stamina going up at all... it's still right around 250 .. I wonder why...

My attack(950-ish) & defense(696) are significantly lower than yours, but my stamina's way higher(690).  That's part of it too.

In the chop shop you get +6 Stamina for building a Rebel 2, +6 Energy for a Solar Flare, +3 attack for a Mugati sport and +3 defense for a Hunter Spy XS.  You can get +1 attack and +1 defense for a Day Rider 2K.
On the weapons side, you get +6 Stamina for a Robber's Utility Belt, +5 Attack for a Railgun and +5 Defense for a Plasma Rifle. 
I just have a tough time keeping up with weapons parts.

Interesting observations.  I didn't know that the stun guns were used for two shots.  I have been wasting them. 

I'm about 15 minutes away from finishing knocking off the feds...  I'm on the last level of the last one and waiting for the minute to pass to buy more health (I used moscow money, since there is no need for that anymore).

The only think I disagree, if you run away on the feds, they don't get any more health.  It's where you left it when you ran away.  Not sure if it's the same with the bosses.  I just fight till I'm down to 20-30 health then reload health and keep chipping away at them.
