Always buy the lower priced!

When you have two properties with vary similar p/h (both green or blue), you should ALWAYS buy the lowest priced one because of the time involved to generate the income to buy the second one AND the lost income accured in that time.

Use Your Points Wisely!

By Lady Jax (4XYUS2)

If you are a player that either likes to accumulate the free promotional points, or purchases the package of points through the application store, this tip is for you. When you decide to exchange your group of points for money, you will notice that there will be another exchange option where it appears that you can save time and instead of cashing in 10 points at a time for maybe $100,000 each, you can turn in 100 points for $10,000,000. Seems like the same amount of money, just quicker, right? Not quite. If you want to get the most money from your points, it is much more efficient to cash in your 10 points, and go buy the best possible property/slaves/traps/etc with what you have, then come back and cash in the next 10 points, and so on. You will notice that each time you purchase property/slaves/traps/etc, the amount of money you recieve for 10 points will increase. After that first exchange for 10 points and making an investment, you might come back and see that 10 points will now buy you $100,100! It is based on some percentage of your income.So this is the best way to get the most money out of your points. Hope this helps!

Use the hit list to avoid retaliation attacks

By Jalexsmith (DAQ94G)

A few weeks ago, I attacked somebody four times in a row. THey told me that they were going to hit list me ten times a day for the next week. I had never commented on their profile and they weren't in my mob. The only trace they had of me was in their recent attacks list.
I had a mobster friend add them to the hit list for me and because of all of the attacks, pushed my name off of their recent attacks list. They can't find me now and I didn't get attacked.

Tips If You Are Being "Farmed"

By Lady Jax

If you find yourself being "farmed" or repeatedly attacked by the same person over a long period of time, here are some tips to remember:

- The best and most obvious thing to do is to get onto your account as often as possible and lower your health so that the farmers cannot attack you. Sometimes it works well if you can get friends to also attack you so that your money is going to them and not your farmer.

- To keep your money safe, you should either bank it right away or quickly invest into properties. Banking is good because it is quick and easy, but you lose 10% of every transaction. In the long run, that can almost be as much as the farmer is taking from you, so this is not always the best method to preserving your money. The other option is to invest into the properties, so you are not losing money, and in the long run you will be making more.

- The MOST INPORTANT tip when being farmed: DO NOT COMMENT THEM! If you check their comment page, farmers have players crying to them all the time about how mean and unfair they are. You are not going to stop them with one whiney comment. Also, as soon as you leave them that comment, they now have a permanent link to you and will continue their farming. One thing you need to remember is that if you do NOT comment them, the only way they can find you to attack you is on the battle list, and as soon as they level up your name will not appear on that list anymore. Therefor, you need to just tough it out and use the preventative measures above until they level up, which is usually pretty quick. Also, DO NOT send a friend request to a known farmer either. This also creates a permanent link for them to find you.

You need to remember that it is true that farmers can play however they want and there are no rules for how much and how often they can attack you. Thats why you just need to adopt this defensive method and tough it out. Most farmers thrive on players reactions, so to provide none and prevent them from taking much from you is the best way to discourage them. Getting your "teams" or "armies" to fight them usually just entertains them, much easier and safer to wait it out. I have used this method on all of the Storm8 games and farming usually only lasts about a day and then they have moved on. It works :)

"Always buy the lower priced!" Sequel

By Chunk (J97HNP)

When you are building up income to purchase the property with the lowest P/H ratio, keep on the look out for the next lowest P/H property. It is possible that as you build up for property #1, you can actually buy property #2 and property #3 if there is excess in the total income generated when finally purchasing property #1. Thus you can buy property #2, #3 earlier and earn this property's income while waiting to buy property #1.

Reverse "Always buy the lower priced!" Tip

By Chunk (J97HNP)

After a period of not playing (aka sleep or no access), when you have the choice and enough money to buy either two slaves with same P/H, you should buy the higher property because the more income generated in the same timeframe, avoiding the greater time needed to generate enough income to buy the higher property, and shorter time to buy lower priced property.

Leveling up

By PUNNTANG (GSS6PT)

Starting out, you may find this difficult considering you really don't get much flesh nor do you get skill points for completing missions. The only time you get skill points for completing missions is by completing certain amounts of missions. So, instead take advantage of the low priced items, CAMP and slowly build your income. I understand you want to play the game, but if you level to fast in the beginning you may find yourself behind like others and you won't be able to afford to go max alliance which you should be shooting for throughout the game.

1. Skill points - Very Important!
Depending what type of player you want to be, such as a farmer, should determine how you use your skill points. If you want to be a farmer, you may want to add a little more to your attack verses your defence. Myself, I've noticed if you have just about the same skill points in defence as you do attack, once you do have that farmer come around & they have all their skill points wrapped up in attack but not so much in defence, you most likely will be able to beat them. Once they see they can be be beating, it will sometimes stray further attacks

2. Skill points
I would not take your health over 100. Why? Because it can be used to your advantage! For one, you can you use the extra skill points on either attack or defence. Secondly, when you have the smart player that comes in trying to knock their soft link off your wall by sanction you one time cause they're hoping your health is full at that time, they most likely will not be able to & you'll still see their link at the bottom of your wall. This also brings up another great strategy. When you have that pest farmer that just will not leave you alone day after day, you can use the one sanction tip to your advantage by trying to knock your soft off their wall. That is, of coarse, if you have not spoken/left a permanent link on their wall.

3. Skill points
I would not take my bullets over 5 to 10 for lvl's 1 thru 40. Instead put them in attack/defence. I'm sure there will be some out there to disagree. However, it all depends on what type of player you want to be.

Remember! NEVER WRITE ON OTHERS WALLS!! the only time I do is when personally know the person I'm giving my link to. If you do this, you will always know exactly where the attack is coming from.

Good luck and happy munching!

How to distinguish friends from other players

By JustCalcIt.com (X37XK2)

Did you know that in the attack list, when someone has a green dot behind their name, that that person is one of your friends?! So don't attack him/her!

Sometimes it IS Better to Buy the Higher Priced Item

By Skank (JMHFHM)

Although the tip that says 'buy the lowest priced' is right when saving to buy, if you already have a store of cash, you are better off buying the higher priced, as you will straightaway earn the higher rate AND generate the lower purchase price more quickly.

Always Buy the Highest Priced Items First

By Skank (JMHFHM)

When withdrawing a large amount to buy multiple items, try to reduce your health below the attack threshold first, so as to reduce the risk of losing some of the money. Also, even if you can reduce your health, always buy the most expensive items first to reduce your cash in hand as quickly as possible. Then if you are attacked, or hit-listed/sanctioned/etc, you stand to lose less.

Making more flesh

By Dead italian (JT6264)

To get more flesh- have a vampire account. And find a link to your zombie-leave a comment on your zombies and attack your own vampire that way you get more flesh. When I started doing that I make 25,000 flesh.
