Best Offensive and Defensive Weapons.


Best weapons for Better Fight



What is the best weapon in Mafia Wars?


In Mafia Wars, not including reward points weapons, the TNT is the best weapon for attacking, and the Gaff Hook is the best weapon for defending. TNT is dropped from the "Raid the Arms Depot" job and the Gaff Hook is dropped from the "Pillage a Shipyard" job. If you are going by combined stats, TNT has the highest at 62.

What job has the best experience points to energy ratio?

Answer: It depends on what perks you have:

If you have the best wheelman (-11% energy cost on jobs), the best mastermind (+11% exp on jobs), and a private island (+5% exp on jobs, for being a master underboss):


- Technically, the "Run an Illegal Poker Game" is the most efficient job - 38 energy cost for 17 energy, giving it 2.4 energy per exp point. However, when you include collecting the consumeable items, it only gives 1.94 exp per energy point.
- The "Bank Heist" job gives 17 experience points for 8 energy, or 2.125 experience points per energy used.
- The "Settle a Beef... Permanently" job gives 74 exp for 35 energy, or 2.11 experience points per energy (not much lower than Bank Heist). I find the Settle a Beef job superior since it gives a lot more money, and doesn't need to be done as many times to level up.

If you do not have a private island (as in you are not a master boss):

- The "Settle a Beef... Permanently" job gives 71 experience points for 35 energy - giving it 2.03 exp per energy used.

If are not yet level 100 and do not have access to the "Settle a Beef... Permanently" job:

- The Bank Heist job gives 16 experience points for 8 energy, at a ratio of 2 experience points per energy used.


If you do not have a good wheelman and mastermind, get one! They are easy to find, look for recruitment groups and discussion sections on facebook!

How do you get bodyguards in Mafia Wars?



Bodyguards have a chance to drop "Protect your City against a Rival Family" job in the Hitman job tier. If you are missing them, it is because they do not have a very good chance to drop. Make sure you are a master hitman before you try to collect them - this increases their drop rate by 10% (that is, the drop rate is probably around 5-10% to start, so after you are a master boss, they have a 15% drop rate, or 2-3 times greater then before). They also have a small chance to drop from fights, so make sure you are at least collecting your easy wins!

  1. This is a great guide. I will just comment on a slight strategy I use.

    Those three items are definitely the best, hands down. However, I would not underestimate items like the Gaff Hooks and the Hu-9s since they are the items with the highest *DEF* stats you can loot.

    TNT is the best attack weapon but the gaff hook is the best defense weapon.

    Following the same reasoning, the Armored State Car is the best defense vehicle (just as the private jets) but the best attack vehicle is the Hu-9.
