Regardless of mobster prestige, bodyguards have the real effect of keeping you from getting beat down on the fightlist all the time. And since there is so much “whipping boy” strategy in Mafia Wars guides, it’s no surprise that noobs who are naturally in weaker position are looking for Mafia Wars bodyguards.
Are you seeking Mafia Wars bodyguards? Look for them in the Protect Your City from a Rival family job in the Hitman tier. Having solid bodyguard defense as early as level eighteen is one great thing about this particular defensive equipment. (If you’re already visiting Cuba, you can get a Guerilla Squad with even greater defense than bodyguards in El Padrino tier – Storm the Presidential Palace.)
The Hitman job that could yield you those bodyguards is a powerful job for leveling, too. Use up thirty-one energy and get out 58 experience. That’s a 1.87 ratio, which I like strategy-wise for leveling up more rapidly. It’s a smart energy investment and yields the bodyguards, arguably the top defensive equipment available to lower level players from job loot. If you are attacked by a generally equal player, you will win fights due to bodyguards. It’s smart to get bodyguards for as many of your crew as you can, since bodyguards are the best defense available to you at the beginner levels.
Maybe you have a more complex challenge than a few Mafia Wars bodyguards can remedy. If your attacker has you outmanned, outgunned, and outclassed, bodyguards won’t stop your losses – although they will increase your percentage of wins! It’s an absolute drag to be someone’s Mafia Wars whipping boy.
You may have to tighten up your fighting strategy for Mafia Wars:
- Have you neglected your personal stats, particularly defense?
- Are you holding off on adding mafia members ‘when you have time’?
- Have you ignored mafia equipment?
Good luck and go find some Mafia Wars bodyguards!
