Mafia Wars Cuba Achievements

Mafia Wars Cuba Achievements

Eight new achievements also went live with the release of Mafia Wars Cuba. Some of these are actually related to New York, but were just put into the game. Here they are:



One Down

Tips: Master one stage in New York..

What else you got?

Island Bound

Earned by traveling to Cuba
Tips: Hit level 35, click the fly to Cuba button.

Banana Republic

Earned by owning all six businesses in Cuba

Tips: Money may seem tight in Cuba to start, but don't worry. You'll master this in no time. Don't buy any businesses until you master the first tier once; you'll need the money to buy the required items for the jobs before that.

Havana Hat Trick

• 
  
  
  
  Earned by mastering at least one job tier in Cuba
  
  Tips:  Just play in Cuba for a bit, it will happen in no time.
  
  
  

Like a Hurricane

• 
  
  
  
  
  

Earned by winning 1000 fights in Cuba.
Tips:  This is the only strategy in Cuba that will actually take a bit of time. If you are struggling to win fights in Cuba, find an easy target in Cuba to attack repeatedly as discussed.

My Little Friend 

My Little Friend

 Earned by gifting an M16A1 to a friend.
Tips: Do the "Transport a Shipment of US Arms" job in the El Capitan tier until you get one of these guns, then gift said gun to someone in your mafia. Easy enough.

So far, there are 6 achievements to work on in Cuba, with the "Like a Hurricane" being by far the longest grind. I would not be surprised if the developers decide to add more though, as there is definitely room for it!

Update: 6/18/2009 - As predicted, new achievements were added :

International

Earned by collecting over 1,000,000 Cuban Pesos
Tips:  Not actually too bad. Once you work through Mafia Wars: Cuba, start buying businesses. Fully upgraded businesses will be able to knock this achievement out in 4 days.

Big Business

Earned by fully upgrading a single Cuban business other than the Bodega

Tips:  Will happen en route to International. Don't worry too much about this or the Tycoon achievement, just buy some businesses and they will pay to upgrade themselves in short order.

Tycoon -

 Earned by fully upgrading all Cuban Businesses

Working Man

Working Man

Earned by doing 20 jobs in one day
Tips:  Easy. They do not have to be different jobs - if you have 20 energy you can just do one energy jobs in the Street Thug tier and earn it easily. Or, you can just work on leveling up and you should get it!

Dependable

Dependable

Earned by doing a job every day for seven days
Tips:  Do a job once every seven days.

Big Spender

Big Spender

Earned by purchasing an item or service with Reward Points
Tips:  Level up 28 times and buy +4 stat points, or spend your money on some.

Treasure Hunter

• 
  
  
  
  Treasure Hunter
  
  Earned by finding a rare item in a mystery crate
  
  
  

Tips: Buy mystery crates. Sucks because the rares in the mystery crate are pretty poor quality, maybe they will upgrade them at some point

Slum Lord 

Slum Lord

Earned by owning 30 apartment complexes
Tips:  Buy 30 apartment complexes

Cashing out

• 
  
  
  
  Earned by selling 50 Mega Casinoes
  
  
  

Tips:  Buy and sell 50 Mega Casinoes. If you don't have any Mega Casinoes, you can buy and sell them 1 (or 10) at a time to save money.

Getting the Crew Together

Earned by promoting friends to each Top Mafia position
Tips: Find some friends, promote them to top Mafia.

Crime C.E.O. 

  Earned by assembling a Top Mafia with all players above level 100
Tips: Not too bad, by the time you have 50 or so Mafia members, you should be able to find enough to put in your Top Mafia.

Knife Thrower

Earned by looting 10 Butterfly Knives.
Tips: You should earn this achievement just in the process of leveling up.

Uncle Sam 

  Earned by owning 50 federal agents.
Tips: They had to put this in after I gave all mine away! At any rate, you get federal agents from the "Buy off a Federal Agent" job in the boss tier. They do not have a good drop rate, and the job requires blackmail photos, so I would recommend being a Master Boss before going for this achievement. It might take a few days worth of energy packs to collect enough blackmail photos to get this one.

What's after Trillion?

• 
  
  
  
  
  

Earned by depositing 999 Trillion Dollars
Tips: I'll be surprised if anyone ever gets this legitimately within the year. It took a few weeks for people to hit the 10 trillion mark, so getting 100 times that is going to take quite some time. I think this was just put in the game to give people who have done everything something to do.

Bulletproof

• 
  
  
  
  
  

Earned by surviving for over 60 minutes on the Hit List.
Tips:  This one actually looks pretty interesting. Surviving on the Hit List takes an interesting build - you need to be able to win a lot of fights on defense (see guide), but you also need to have a lot of health so that you do not get knocked out in between bouts of healing. On the hit list, you can be knocked out even if you win every fight on defense. If you win 100 fights, you're still taking damage on most fights, and eventually you will get knocked out. You can heal every minute or so, but if you only have the base line level of health, you will not last very long on the hitlist. You can try to have this done at off-peak hours (in the middle of the night) and have a friend list you, but Mafia Wars is an international game, so there will never be truly be an opening.

That's Amore

Earned by gifting a Diamond Ring to any player under level 8
Tips:  Get a friend to play, gift them a ring before they get past level 8. In other news, the Diamond Ring crops up on everyone's wishlist..

The Best Offense 

• 
  
  
  
  
  

Earned by defeating 6 attackers in a row
Tips: See the How to Win Fights on Defense guide. The best way to get attacked 6 times in a row is to get someone to list you on the hitlist after you get an outfitted Mafia of 501. It can be done earlier, but requires a bit of luck. Alternatively, you could have a weaker friend attack you until you get it.
