Gym: getting stronger

With Gym (bottom Crime) train yourself HS (handshake strength) A separate stat that has nothing to do with Power and Defence. With HS you challenge other players to an arm wrestling contest to wager: The higher your HS, the heavier your weight class and the greater your chance to win the pot. This article is about training; for the games themselves see Sports school duels.

Training with the force meter

Choose one of the three exercises below, and then the forcemeter: a pointer moving back and forth over a beam. Click PRESS! When the pointer is in the green zone, the closer to the center of that zone, the higher your precision. Your precision scales your profits:

• Clicked far next to the zone You only have a fraction of the basic profit (up to ×0,6).
• Somewhere in the zone A clean, average profit.
• In the middle of the zone clicked HS from the same set.

Besides your timing, you also count Health along with: your profit is scaled to your health bar (100% health = full profit), and you have minimal 10% health necessary for training. The VIP benefit Better training gives on top 50% more HS per set.

The three exercises

All three exercises build the same stat on HS. but differ in yield and recovery time:

Please note: recovery time is shared. Choose your Bicycles, then you have to wait 10 minutes before you can start training again. A heavy exercise consequently gives more HS per set, but not necessarily more per minute; choose your exercise based on how often you come back to click, not just on the highest basic gain.

What's HS for and where not?

HS only counts with Sports school duels: Your weight class and your winning chance in those PvP games. It has no influence on your chances at the Murder system, in the event of ordinary attacks, vehicle theft, breakout or family wars It doesn't work either. Do you want to get stronger in those other systems, then train or buy Power and Defence separate via The Winkel: free and time bound on the Training tab, or directly with cash on the Arms and Defense tabs.

Training counts for progress

Going to gym is never a waste of time. Each training results in a little XP and counts for day tasks and week challenges just by maintaining your routine.

Strategy and tips

• Train with full health. The health factor directly multiplys your profit; go by first hospital When you're battered.
• Target the middle of the green zone. The difference between a miss and a perfect click is more than a factor of two.
• Bicycles gives most HS per set, but with the longest recovery time (10 minutes). If you are often online, Print (2 minutes of rest) will give you more sets per hour.
• Build HS before you start dueling with a high stake Check your weight class on the Competitions tab before opening a pot.

That depends on your chosen exercise: Printing recovers in 2 minutes, Running in 5, Bicycles in 10. The recovery time is shared for all three exercises after training you wait that time, regardless of which exercise you then choose.
