Obsolete already

With all things Mafia Wars Loot becomes obsolete fast! And with today's introduction of FHEL5 more loot then ever has become old news!
Lets look at what was ONCE new and is now Old!

1 Month ago we had 4 new Operations released, These where great and had some nice Stats, but with the pathetic drop rates, getting 501 was going to be impossible 71 operations done here for 6 "Rare" Items and 534 Operations done here for 24 "Rare" items
So for those players who tried their hardest to get the operation loot, What's left? Well the answer is of the 7 New items that where released, only 4 remain standing as HEL






 Or how about the Armoury and Zoo upgrades released just 9 Days ago, 10 New loot items released, of that 3 items where above top loot at the time Now just 1 item is left




 How about the Lucky Stash, That at least costs Reward points to stock up on, Hows it fairing after the release of the latest Fight loot? Again the answer is not good!


 How about the War Rewards they where released just 2 days ago, Surely some of those HAVE to be worth the time gathering!

Tier 2 Rewards are a Strike NOTHING is higher then the current FHEL5 and Job Lootable items

And Tier 3 War items dont look much better! with just 4 Items remaining above the current HEL Standard!
Thanks to the Mafia Wars Wiki for the details on Tier 3 War loot
 So with FHEL5 Making so many things obsolete overnight you have to wonder if one department inside Zynga even talks to another, Surely there has to be some thing going wrong if so much recently released loot becomes obsolete after just one release!

  1. Easy question for not-thinking admins. How fast will most of the people stock up on FHEL5 ? Again a topic you are comenting on only from your own perspective. Yeah, we know you have 153k A/D - guess what, most people don't!!!!! Try thinking of that next time!

  2. Hey Mr Anonymouse, Why release hard to get War Loot just the other day, then Release the much EASIER to get get FHEL5 today, Think about it its not just a matter of getting 501 of the best, Its a matter of effort->reward
    its going to take a LOT more effort to get 20 War items then it is to get 20 FHEL5 Items, So shouldnt the War items have better rewards then the FHEL5 Items?
    More so goes for the Lucky Stash items! and the operation Loot!

  4. Mr Anonymous says :

    FHEL5 is harder to get by for the normal person with stats in the 130k range. Even you have losses when fighting with 153k A/D - what do you think about the normal people?

    And by the way - here is some news for you. Robbign loot is now updated - I am receiving Bighorn/Arcturions/Meadow Vipers/Phantasm(FHEL4?!?)/Talon on robbing. Also Brazilian Timber/Construction Workers.

    Cheers ;)

  5. I wouldn't call the Crab Claw Cutter obsolete just because it is one point lower in attack than the Ostrich Egg Bomb. Nor would i call the Screech Owl obsolete? I can't think of a lootable animal that is better on defense?

    Also, the Jackelope is only 2 better than a Venomous, so yea its a little better but its sure not worth the effort to try to max out on those.

    I do agree Zynga should plan a little better when releasing new loot. But, I wouldn't call any of the FHEL4 outdated just yet. I personally am not worried about 400-800 total weapon stats on either side making a big difference when i'm fighting.

    It is all about time & resources spent (effort) versus the reward gained. Fighting is still the fastest way to raise your weapons stats. I'm very thankful fighters don't have to rely on looters/farmers anymore to be able to compete when it comes to weapons.
