Mental State Vs Strength

[~TKP~]

Now the mental state status bar is in place and it is so easy to go full retard (even on NPC's) and it seems to take ages for some ppl's meters to come back down especially if you only play in free roam. How are you guys balancing your strength meter?

I used to go to the beach and punch NPC's continually until my strength meter went up, however now if I try it I get a nutcase red blip for hurting NPC's continually and then spend the next 15hrs getting chased round the map for being a nutter lol. The strength meter is null and void now really because of this. Opinions?

You can punch other playes too

Arm wrestling.

you're suposed to level strength in gerald missions, as you get no cops.

 

your argument is invalid, mental state and strength are not co-dependent.

 

[~TKP~]

@ maybe

 

I never said they were co-dependant just that they actively affect each other. Tell me that they don't overlap at all and I'll accept your false statement of supposed fact.

[maybeanotherone]

they don't overlap at all.

 

if you're 83 and all your skills are not maxed out already, except lung capacity, you've been doing something wrong.

[Mikelo]

I haven't tried but maybe in missions like Rooftop Rumble punching NPCs will not affect your mental state. Try it out.

oh sorry that's right ur statements are facts.

 

I again never said my stats weren't maxxed I said that this issue is here now and the mental state meter wasn't completely thought out by the fact that NPC's are included. Cops I accept, cars yeah sure if they are a PV but by your meter being affected by the general NPC it affect the way ppl can raise their strength meter. Your making this sound like a rant instead of raising awareness to the fact. As for Gerald's non-police mission being the sole way to raise your strength meter who in R* ever said that. Your a dime-bar plain and simple.

 

Stop trying to sh*t stir just to sound like a good guy. You know, I know and the dogs in the street know it's affected by it and your blatant ignorance of the fact is helping no-one notice the fact and possibly help in resolving the issue. Oh and before you start I know this isn't a R* forum, I've sent the tickets as I seen fit now I'm raising the awareness of the fact on a GTAO forum. Deal with it or STFU

[crashhat69]

this is why i was glad i maxed out strength a long time ago

[waters]

Play golf, hole 6 over and over, fills the strength in 20mins

[havok024]

If your strength ever drops from max, just go play hole 6 on golf a few times and it'll be maxed out again.

Hands down the fastest way to raise strength as playing a single hole gives the same boost as playing an entire round--and the 6th hole is a short par 3.

[~TKP~]

forgot about golf and hole 6(and AFP's arm wrestling), they will deffo help when it drops for ppl. It's amazing how you forget this game has activities that don't involve mindless slaughtering lol

Yeah, golf for sure. It's good cause you can even do it solo if you want. That is how I maxed strength really quickly. Lung capacity is still the only thing I don't have maxed out on a level 85 character.

Level 146 currently, and I have like, half a strength bar, lol.
