If you are starting to learn how to play Mafia Wars, you may be wondering about the Chop Shop. Even if you have been playing the game for some time, since the Chop Shop is fairly new, you may need to learn more about using it to its fullest potential. It was back in February of 2010 that the Chop Shop was first introduced to this game. This is a property within New York that does not generate cash, but it allows you to build up parts and tools in order to make special vehicles within the shop. Here is a closer look at using this interesting property and making the most out of it to increase your strength within Mafia games.
First, you need to know how build your own Chop Shop in the first place. If you have not built yours yet, go to the New York properties page and you will see the area where you can begin building. To get started, there are 50 items that you are going to need. You will need power tools, acetylene torches, cement blocks, shipping containers, and car lifts. Ten of each is needed to begin. Not sure where you can get these items? You can purchase them, but it will cost you one reward point for each one. You can post on the news feed that you need help collecting these items, and your mafia can also gift them to you.
Now you are also able to upgrade your Chop Shop within the Mafia Wars game. Of course, for every level you go up, you are going to need more of the power tools, acetylene torches, cement blocks, shipping containers, and car lifts. Again you will have to collect up these items in order to upgrade to the next level. Not only can you get what you need from gifts or by purchasing them, but in some cases you can get them by doing jobs as well within Mafia Games. The cost of upgrading to each level will vary. Level 1 requires 50 items, level 2 requires 25 items, you need 30 for level 3, and 35 for level 4. As you continue to level up, it will cost you more of these special parts to be able to level up your Chop Shop.
Not only are you going to need the tools in order to level up your Chop Shop, but there are a variety of different car parts needed to help you begin building the cars within your shop. Within the Mafia Wars game, you will find that the most common part is the basic car part. It can be found by fighting or doing jobs in any city within the game. Also, as you level up, you will collect a certain amount of parts each day too. The Cuban car parts are needed and can be found by doing fights or jobs within Cuba. Russian car parts are of course found in Moscow in jobs and fights. Within Bangkok you will be able to get the Thai car parts. Other items you need include solar panels, bulletproof glass, and high tech car parts. All three of these items are given at random in loot in fights and jobs in any of the cities within the game.
There are a variety of different vehicles that you can build within your Chop Shop in the Mafia Games. Within the first level, you are able to build common vehicles, which include the ATV, Volk Luxury Sedan, Zhar-ptitsa Sedan, Armored Limousine, Mara Serpiente, Multi Purpose Truck, Montaine 320, Ronin Motorcycle, and the Fugama Kame SUV. When you get to the next level, you can build rare vehicles, including the CM Dragon, Iron Bull, Low Rider, Rising Sun, Armored State Car, Fugama Gureihaundo-X, Inferno SAM Launcher, Kage Jet, Trio Wildfire GT, Zoloto Sports Car, and these vehicles are made at random.
As you get above the first two levels, they you have the option to start building unique vehicles. These vehicles offer excellent attack or defense and some can add energy, attack, defense, or even stamina for you. At level three, you can build the Tasmanian. Level four allows you to build the CM Santiago R10, and Level 5 allows you to build the Rebel 2. Other vehicles that you can build as you continue to upgrade your Chop Shop within Mafia Wars include the Sirroco 9Z, Solar Flare, Trio Napoli, Mugati Sport, Thai XS Max, Russian Dazatz 45, Red Angel, and Hunter Spy XS.
Building a Chop Shop is definitely in your best interest. You will add great vehicles to your collection that provide great attack and defense, which can help you in fights as you work to level up.
