Anyone: I'm needing some advice... I started without prior Storm8 game experienced & well as you can imagine I wasn't playing smart. The game is addicting so I attacked and leveled up fast. I bought slaves, but only as I needed them. it wasn't until reading these helpful tips & advice that I realize how I wouldn't survive any higher levels, unless I made some changes... Now I'm "harvesting" I unlearned most of my abilities & bought all the slaves I could afford. As I'm getting more blood, I'm investing in slaves, until reaching a decent amount, I guess. I'm currently at level 28 daywalker with 11 in my clan. My blood intake is barely at 1/2 million every hour. I will continue to buy slaves as I go, but can I still make it?or should I just reset my character; something I really don't want to do!

I think you can still make it without having to restart. Just don't have any things you don't need for upkeep - keep upkeep as low as possible. Only have what you need to have to cover your clan members.

Thanks for the reply... I'm going to continue, but it's really affecting my stats, since I'm now getting attack like crazy. Does it really matter or should I consider getting some defense abilities in place?

YES for sure beef up on defense - I'd say max out for your defense - you need defense no matter what.

equiptment (or maybe low equiptment) camping a try. People can only attack you so many times ^___^.
If you give me your ign, in a couple of days, I guess I could let you hit me some lol. If you can get past my looted items haha.

Also, try using justcalcit.com so you always buy the best ROI slaves without too much brain cramps.

Btw, ROI is "Return Of Investment"

Camping with defence is like playing call of duty with with a rpd... sitting in a corner with 2 claymores planted in front of you.

Personally I reccomend you build your attack and your slaves and just camp camp camp till you have built a decent blood income and then come out if your coffin blazin and destroy anyone in your path with ur sexy attack.

I'd rather die fighting than die defensively camping. No honor.

Thanks for the advice earlier. I'm currently a lvl 27 vamp with a net income of 2,439,400 and an upkeep of 248,600. My attack is at 20 and my defense is at 28. I'm stillcamping but what irks my gameplay is the farmers; most act me twice while others caught on to my game and have figured out when I'm not around. Even if I was around they'd still attack but lately my defense has thrwarted their attacks every now and then. The thing is my win lose ratio is poooooor; about 154 wins to 654 losses. With a clan of 21 with each of them using abilities that have the highest defense, what should I do now? Do I keep
going, or should I rid away my clan? Or should I increase my clan?

Thank you for any comments or advice you may have.

Ok... Keep your blood in bank every now and then. Don't left it. Yes! it costs you 10% to put in the bank. In my opinion, better than 'farmers'. And, don't write anything to their walls. This could link back to your ID and attack you more. Be wise, don't bounty them. That cost you double. :) Hope this help! DON'T forget to enhance your defense and attack.

Actually leveling up is a good thing to get the higher slaves.. what happens when you start camping is it takes a long time to feel as if you have "enough"..

As it takes a multiple of your strength to maintain, just make sure that y ou keep a portfolio that is no more than about a third of your income...

You are way past that already, is the game about camping? Defending? or attacking? That you have to choose...

What is a good income to have before leveling higher then 8? (I am at level 8) should it be a million? or is that to high?

My advice is to get rid of all of your abilities AND all of your clan members. If you don't have clan members, you can't be attacked, and since you only have 11 you won't be losing much. The follow the rest of the advice on the forums.

Right now I have a bloodflow of 5.3 mil an hour. Just camping at level 31 and no more banking. What I do is attacking strong clannies to keep my health low!

In one day I have earned 700.000 extra bloodflow. I will be camping here untill I will be around 100 mil. I expect to be around 10 mil bloodflow in a few days!
