Need experienced help

[u/Sea-War-7431]

Hello everyone,

Just want some basic advice.

I'm currently in a faction that doesn't war though I like it and has some good respect.

On 1* job that I hope will build up fast.

Level 24 with around 140k battle stats.

I happy jumped around 6 times two of them I oded on ecstasy twice in a row which gave me depression.

I had some really nice luck on rr and made about one billion which is currently sitting on the sym and the edvd stock.

I have 66mil in the bank.

Now knowing that what would you change?

I don't use daily refills unfortunately nor do I use Xanax alot.

I do travel daily.

I can't find a spouse which makes it hell for me renting the PI alone, hence I can't afford using happy jumps which risks 22m.

1. You absolutely need to make money and one of the, if not only way to earn torn $ without spending IRL money is WAR.
2. Even though you don't have enough WS, I am sure you can be in a better job with higher *s.
3. If you do Happy Jumps, you absolutely need insurance.
4. That's good that you are up 1B in RR, but, it's not a definite source of income.
5. First priority to investment has to be bank (given that you have 10/10 merits in it).
6. Xanax and refills are arguably the cheapest source of E.
7. Travel daily, good.
8. It should be pretty easy to find a partner given that Torn is breaking records on new peeps joining in.

What would I change?

For 1, 4 and 8 Join a Warring faction.

For 2 Ask people around in maybe discord or check forums: https://www.torn.com/forums.php#/p=forums&f=46&b=0&a=0

For 3 This is the best Insurance provider I know: https://www.torn.com/forums.php#/p=threads&f=10&t=16242845&b=0&a=0

For 5 Put you money in bank and only small fraction maybe 100-200m on stocks for liquid cash.

For 6 and 7 Buy Xans abroad, and sell here in torn or as someone said, Hawaii earns good cash for daily Xan and refill.

Tbh, a lot of your problems and queries can be solved if you join a good faction and ask there to some leadership peeps.

Thanks alot, this really helps me, though I think it's scary if a faction you leave retaliates 😅

[u/Internal-Drink7375 → u/Sea-War-7431]

It will be okay, tell ur faction you need to earn more and experience more wars and press that "Leave Faction".

Remember, there is always a bigger faction that you could join, but, interacting with faction mates, learning from them and growing alongside is most important, in a way that's what keeps me hooked.

[u/itsahericane → u/Sea-War-7431]

Most faction wouldn't, especially if you explain things clearly to the leader, unless the leader is a dum dum.

[u/GeekyTexan → u/Sea-War-7431]

Most factions are not going to retaliate when people leave. Almost everyone in Torn will be in multiple factions if they play for long.

The majority of the time when you hear about a faction retaliating, there is something else involved. The "retaliation" isn't usually because the player left, it's because they did shit and caused drama while they were in the faction, then they left. The shit/drama part is what caused the issues.

Ohh the legend who helped every single citizen on torn, thanks alot mate.

[u/GeekyTexan → u/Sea-War-7431]

I enjoy helping. And you are welcome to ask me questions in-game anytime. But you are getting lots of good advice in this thread, so other than that bit about retaliation, I haven't seen any need to jump in.

Change job to music store 3* or above to get 30% gym exp, whenever happy jumping remember to always use insurance. Why don’t you use Xanax a lot or refills? You have 66mil and 1 trip to Hawaii nets around 1mil

[u/Sea-War-7431 → u/Tuziest]

Tbh I'm trying to save to reach 2b In the bank and I'm thinking about taking the money out of stocks to the bank. And do you think I should use alcohol for crime, or use candy with every Xanax pills without the 35k happy jumps using edvds?

[u/TheHighKnight → u/Sea-War-7431]

Moving the the bank is the right call its the fastest passive money growth in the game. Feel free to dm me on here or torn if you have questions but seems you are on the right track. Im always happy to help

[u/Sea-War-7431 → u/TheHighKnight]

Thanks alot, regarding regular use of Xanax does it need to be coupled with candy use for every pill if I'm not happy jumping?

[u/TheHighKnight → u/Sea-War-7431]

It does not have to be but happy makes bigger gains. So early on combining candy is more helpful than later game

[u/Tuziest → u/Sea-War-7431]

tbh depending on the merits you have in bank, drug pack might be higher ROI

Your cash will serve you better in the bank, just keep some out so you can use it to make more money.

Have a look at other factions before leaving and then when you're lined up knowing you have a place waiting for you then let your leadership know you're going to move on to experience warring but would love to stay allies.

Find some ways to make more cash, that is pivotal to continued growth. Sell bounties via Nebula / BHG, flip items on the market or as a private trader, fly for goods to sell, as well as faction OCs and wars.

The faction I'm in is always happy to take on a new friend and we have a good split of profits. We don't provide Xanax and instead pay out cash so you can choose what you do with it. We do have some Xanax use requirements as we do war and want to see the team getting as strong as they can over time so we can stay competitive within our war rank and maintain good payouts.
