Mafia Wars Best Weapons, Vehicles, and Armor List; Strategy Guide

Edit: Updated for Bangkok beta.

Due to the partial releases of Mafia Wars Moscow, the recent upgrades to some old equipment, and the several more expansions on the horizon, it seems like it would be a good idea to maintain a running "Best Of" list to outline the best offensive and defensive weapons, armor, and vehicles in game.

Note, to qualify for the list, it must be an item that drops from jobs (job mastery items (like the cazador assault rifle, godfather points items and limited edition items like the Red Coat will be excluded from the list).


Best Offensive Weapons:

Ubijca Assault Rifle: 43 attack, 18 defense - from the "Help "Plan" The Next Attack" job (Vory Only) in Episode 5 in Moscow.

-or-

Tanto: 43 attack, 28 defense - from the Yakuza Only Episode 5A, Chapter 3 job.


Best Defensive Weapon:

Cheng-Wei X94 Machine Gun: 25 attack, 45 defense. Sold in the Mafia Wars Bangkok faction store (Triad).


Best Offensive Armor:

Yakuza Assassin: 50 attack, 26 defense. Sold in the Mafia Wars Bangkok faction store (Yakuza).


Best Defensive Armor:

Shaolin Bodyguard: 27 attack, 51 defense. Sold in the Mafia Wars Bangkok faction store (Triad).


Best Offensive Vehicle:

Fugama Hasu: 46 attack, 23 defense. Sold in the Mafia Wars Bangkok faction store (Yakuza).


Best Defensive Vehicle:

Lloyds Spectre: 18 Attack 45 Defense - from the Yakuza only job in Episode 5B, Chapter 2 of Moscow.

Conclusion

Currently, most of the best items in game are now available in the Bangkok faction store. I am assuming there will also be some good drops from jobs in later episodes of Bangkok. More details to come.

  3. Why are there no Moscow Loot items being dropped from fighting?
    ReplyDelete
  4. It took a long time for Cuba items to drop from fighting - I am assuming this is the same case for Moscow. I doubt we'll see Moscow items drop from fighting until they release episodes 5 and 6.

    Also Bangkok is announced for the Holiday!

    And there is a Halloween event coming up!

  7. ^ Actually, anon, in my opinion it'd be wiser to carve through episodes 4 and 5 (lvl 1 mastery) to get at the much-improved ruble:energy rate in episode 6. It'll save you a lot of time and help ya out with money issues which seem to crop up very frequently in Moscow.

  8. If you would choose mafiya on episode 1 lv 1 and then you choose vory on episode 1 lv 2 what will happen to those loot?

  9. Hi Mafia Wars Guide,

    I think you should modify the conclusion of this article because it is outdated for now.

    Cheers

  10. if i am reading this right mafya only has one exclusive item while vory has 3????
    ReplyDelete
  11. So basically you should do the episodes as such (for those of us who haven't yet maxed out the best previous items):
    1 = Mafiya
    2 = Vory
    3 = Vory
    4 = Either, but probably Vory (since I am STILL using my Private Jets)
    5 = Vory
    6 = Either

    Looks like I'm glad I have alt accounts. ;-)

  12. Some of the limited loot items (labor day loot, halloween loot, tiger loot) have higher stats than the best equipments, yet some players fight by only using TNTs, ASCs and Guerillas. Is it because they do not have any limited loot items in their inventory? Or are they able to dispose these loot items?
    ReplyDelete
  13. you know, no one should be looking to get 501 of any of these because we have two more cities coming in a few months, and with those, much higher stat items. We'll probably have to be level 150 to go to Bangkok and 250 to go to western us. Save your energy and just finish the tiers however way you want to

  14. The best offensive weapon in my loot list is Boss Karpov's Pistol 50 attack 38 defense. I dont remember where i got that. I think in one Russian job. Only have one and can not be transfered.
    ReplyDelete
  15. Boss Karpov's Pistol is a tier mastery reward. As such, you'll only ever get one.
    ReplyDelete
  16. Pick
    1) Mafiya
    2) Vory
    3) Mafiya
    4) Vory
    5) Vory
    6) Either

    Ignore the dumbass who wrote pick vory in episode 3. Volk luxury sedan is clearly better than taiga shotgun.
    ReplyDelete
  17. as of this moment i dont have those items but what items should i buy from inventory that are enough to win fights?
    ReplyDelete
  18. so if u pick mafiya on episode 6 u cant get any cargo carriers?? so best bet is armored state cars after that?
    ReplyDelete
  19. Is there a marked difference in drop rate between the Klyk and the Blade? The Klyk has only 1 less defense, but a barely crappier energy ratio to obtain.
    ReplyDelete
  20. Is there a chance to get an update on this list now that Bangkok is live?
    ReplyDelete
  21. Could we also get the list of non faction store, best in slot?
    ReplyDelete
  22. Why isn't this list accurate?
    ReplyDelete
  23. You might wanna change the vehicles here, since the cool upgrades of Chop Shop were released :) it's a damn good addition
    ReplyDelete
