How To Defeat Boss Fight In Vegas

Share
Some of our friends complaining that they can not defeat Bosses in Vegas city on District 3 and also 5.
And why they can not succeed? Because the Boss has tons of Health!
For example Boss on Disctrict 5 below:

She has 25000 Health points!
I notice that we can have variance of Health for this Boss on the same District.. The one above has 25000 Health, some friends has 15000, and I got 1000 Health... lucky me?
Is it because I only on level 1 mastery now, so only have that much on her health? Anyone please advise? Trinity's mood


Ok, no matter how much Health the Boss has, we can still beat them!
How to? Ok, first I got one tip from Pedro telling me to have my full of Health first.. then use a Stun Gun to attack her!
I did but nothing's happening! Guess the tip is not good for me, Pedro.. so I just use Attack button to make her lose some Health points..

My henchmen sacrifice themself for me..
I keep attacking her, using my kits.. I use the Grenade, the Shiv, use Attack button again and heal my self with the Health kit.. but somehow the Boss is able to heal themself as well! She has a full health again! Crap!!!

Then I just click on "Ask for Help" button and publish! I think it works!
I still attacking her but she quickly loose her Health... I guess my best mafias are helping me to defeat her quickly, hooorrraaaayyy!!!


The point is, ask for help is the best way I know to defeat any Boss in fight!
If these tricks do not work for you, you have problem with your game.. please contact Zynga Support team about this..

I hope you can defeat the Bosses to now.. and if you know any other tricks, please kindly share on the comment section below..

How To Use Facebook Credits

Share
I know that I have told you many times about FaceBook Credits.. but now I have officially explanation from Zynga about this... so we can convert them now!

Many friends have some kind of rewards from FaceBook and they can use this to buy points on some of FaceBook games... Nobody know how to get this from FaceBook.. one friend said you can contact FaceBook via email to ask them sending you the credits... some just accept it without knowing why or how..

Here it is again the example when you have the credits..

Or this one...
I still don't get my own Credits.. so can not try to convert it to Mafia Wars Reward Points..
Apologize if I just copy-paste what I have found on Zynga Support Center..

Here you go :

How To Use Facebook Credits

To purchase virtual goods and in-game currency for your Zynga game, you will first need to purchase Facebook Credits!!

How to purchase in-game currency

1. Click on the "Add {in-game currency}" or "Get {in-game currency}" link from your game.

2. Select what you want to purchase.

For example: 72 Horseshoes, 115 Sand Dollars, etc.

3. Select the payment method.

Image

If you select Credit Card or PayPal, you will purchase the exact amount that you have selected. Your Facebook Credits balanced will not be affected.

If you select Facebook Credits, we will first display how many Facebook Credits you currently have.

If you have sufficient Facebook Credits to complete the purchase, you will not be asked to charge to a credit card or to PayPal; you will be able to complete the 'purchase' with Facebook Credits.

Image


If you do not have sufficient Facebook Credits, we will inform you of how many Facebook Credits you are short, and what's required to complete the purchase.

Select Credit Card or PayPal, and then select a Facebook Credit package.

Image

Image

PLEASE NOTE: Any remaining Facebook Credits that were not used during a purchase will be added to your Facebook Credits balance and can be applied to any Zynga game!

Your current Facebook Credit balance is on the upper right-hand side of the page from within a Zynga game:

Facebook Credits are being used by the following Zynga games:

  • Cafe World
  • Mafia Wars
  • PetVille
  • FishVille
  • FarmVille
  • Treasure Isle

The Official Mafia Wars Blog? ! ? !

Share

This is a regular series where we will feature the top mafia members who work at Mafia Wars.

Scotty5 Everyone here at Mafia Wars has a favorite scene from The Godfather. For general manager Scott, it’s the part where Michael Corleone takes a planted gun from behind a toilet tank and very calmly shoots rival gangster Virgil Sollozzo and a corrupt police captain to avenge his father’s near assassination.

It makes sense that Michael Corleone’s perfectly executed plan is Scott’s favorite scene. Among our top six mafia members, Scott is the cool mastermind of Mafia Wars.

Scott, known to his mafia crew as “Scottie”, always has a game plan. He is transforming the game to make Mafia Wars more engaging and social. Players will get to work with friends to build and maintain their criminal empires, protect their properties and make more money.

Scottie remains unflappable even when he’s playing. He systematically rises through the ranks, maximizing job completing to take over cities, and leveraging his mafia crew wisely to get the items he needs for collections and crafting. That includes scoring a S10, a special vault item that is named after the mastermind, when he completed the Prototype Carjacking collection.

The experienced mastermind shared his top mafia rule. Think before you shoot.

You don't really have to spend your precious Reward Points to play Slot Machine games!
It is kind of wasting money and it's a gambling game for sure.. you will lost lots of Reward Points and win nothing, on the contrary you can also win some Reward Points..

I forgot to post about this one.. you can see on your FaceBook wall, lots ot your friends are publishing their own Slots Machine!
Everytime someone wins, even 1RP the game offers to post about it..
You can win some free spins, it depends on how many lucky spins you made on this FaceBook feed.. You can play for free up to 6 times a day!
You are eligible to win up to 6 free spins per day.

And one can not play from their own posts..
Remember to click on the IMAGE to play, not the text..


I clicked on the image above and arrive on this one.. I got 3 free spins to play here.. it will decide how many spins I can do on my Slot Machine game later on to win the real prizes..

So I started my luck.. ouch, from 3 spinning I only got one 3 same images..


I can click to play, it will bring me to my own Slot Machine game and I can begin to play my free spin for 1 time..
If I want to play more free games, I can try to search for another posts from my friends.. or if I have no luck, I have to spend my Reward Points again.. that's it!
