About the Game

Welcome to the final tier of the New York stage in the Facebook application, Mafia Wars. This tier is aptly called, the Boss tier, the last in a series of 9 stages in this game. This article will guide players extensively as to how they will approach this level.

Aptly called the Boss Level, this tier is open only to players with levels above the 100 level mark and fully unlocking at level 135. Players will need a variety of items to fully engage this level and a keen grasp of the concept of the game. Of utmost importance to this tier is having 2 types of loot items in handy: Blackmail Photos and Illegal Transaction Records. You'll be needing 368 Blackmail Photos and 109 Illegal Transaction Records. If you think that's hard enough, consider this: to obtain Blackmail Photos, you will need a loot item of another nature: a Concealable Camera.

Item Requirements

The Illegal Transaction Records can be attained from the Capo job: Steal a Bank Record whereas the Blackmail Photos and subsequently the Concealable Camera are attained from the Hitman and Enforcer tier respectively. Now then, you can either obtain these items in one massive blowout - completing the collection first before doing any actual jobs on the boss tier or you can do them one at a time, whenever the need so arises. Either way, don't forget - those are just two of many other requirements for this level.

The First of the Last

et's start with the job that requires the least amount of energy for this job. Oddly enough, it's the Buy Off a Federal Agent mission. (snickers) 32 energy points needed to acquire your personal Fed as well as 56 experience points in return. On top of that, 4.7 million dollars. I know I know, the money isn't that big but hey you got a Fed in your pocket! This is also the mission where you'll be needing one of many Blackmail Photos so make sure you have that in tow. As a bonus, grab 2 town cars and 5 grenades to spook your Fed.

A little noteworthy thought: The Town Car will be one of the more reusable items for this tier, and other New York stages as you'll be using it several times in this level alone as well as in the Enforcer, Hitman, Capo, Consigliere and Underboss stages as well. Each town car can be bought at the inventory section for 400 grand and has an upkeep cost of 1200 every upkeep rotation.

Thirty Six Points to Score

Making a Deal with the Mexican Cartel and Settling a Beef Permanently both costs 36 energy points. The differences being that the first job's experience yield is 71 points while the latter a measly 56 points, cash yields favors more the Beef Settling job at 9.04 million over the Mexican Cartel's 5.6 million dollars. Add to that, the Mexican job lets you have the opportunity to acquire a Private Jet, a loot item you'll need in another Boss mission. So even though the Beef job might have more experience outputs, the Mexican job is actually the one that will benefit you more. As for item requirements, the first mission will require these items: 10 Town Cars (didn't I say they were reusable?) 5 Getaway Cruisers, 14 Chain Guns and an RPG Launcher whereas the Mexican job requests for 3 Prop Planes, 4 Night Vision Googles and 10 Automatic Rifles to complete.

Are these listed in the order they should be done?
I'm in the middle of level 2 of the Boss section. I've been doing the jobs requiring the most energy first. If that is not the best strategy, I'll try to salvage the level as best possible.
