Zen and the art of slowing down and kicking rear.

Hello all,

This article is dedicated to new players and lets me regret there is not a way to lose experience and lose levels. 😉 I am sure most new players have gotten this information repeatedly, but it never hurts hearing it yet again. This game lets you level like a rocket ship at first, and you can be in your 20's one your first day. This is the worst thing in the world to do, but by the time people learn that, they are already there.

You might ask, why is it a bad thing? And its simple, stats are based on time, not level. The natural progression of this game is that all of the big players are in the higher divisions, and in battles, each side will blast at each other, and the factor that determines victory in those top teirs is- who is going to spend the most? in cash and gold.

That makes division 1 and 2 warfare more important. The newer players might end up dictating who wins the major battles, by tossing in the victory points needed to give one side or the other the edge. Winning both division 1 and 2 is the same as winning a division 3 fight in terms of points. If we can consistantly win both divisions 1 and 2, it lets eUSA only have to win 3 or 4 to come out ahead of battle, and we can spend our resources wisely to ensure victory.

Thus, the longer you stay in division 1 and 2, the more important to winning wars, and if I ever have my way, annexing canada so I can get my free maple syrup.

So work, train, participate in battles to get your free bazooka and food bars, this is all good and important. Build yourself up a nice war chest. Just remember that its easier to use those bazooka's to get a battle hero in division 1, then it is to get the same battle hero in each division after. Don't be in a rush to leave to free gold machine that is division one.

Your most important stat is strength, and the higher you get it, not only the more damage you do, but you also use less energy to kill an enemy if the difference is great enough. So relax, and grow slowly. There is not really any perk to leveling, and that leveling gold doesn't really get any more attractive.

You will make more by dominating division 1 then you will get by rushing to 2, and when you do reach 2 by taking your time? Your already a competitive player. So play eRep, be social, be active, because the most interesting aspects of the game tend to be those aspects made by your fellow players. Don't rush to level, because it changes nothing else about the game that truly matters. And if all else fails, fix a motorcycle.
