== What are Sluts and Rapes? ==
−
Slutting is the act of attacking a hobo and losing on purpose. In this activity, you gain quick cash, but you damage your win/lose score. Some hobos want to level quickly so they will hire a slut who will use up their "T".  
+
*<b>Sluts</b> and <b>rapes</b> are services one can buy from another hobo in order to gain experience from someone who agrees to be beaten unconscious.
  
−
Lower level sluts generally get paid like so:
+
*A slut is where a hobo pays another hobo to [[Fighting|attack]] them and lose on purpose. Since “sluts” cost the player who is performing the slut awake, they tend to be more expensive than rapes if sold by the same seller.
  
−
($100 * Slut's level) * [the amount of times the slut attacked]
+
*A rape is where a hobo pays another hobo to heal in order for the paying hobo to attack them and win. The purchasing player uses their own T to attack, resulting in rapes being more affordable in general.
  
−
Example:
+
*Rapes and sluts may be paid for either before or after the battle, though it is preferred by sellers that first time buyers pay in advance.
  
−
Level 10 hires level 7 slut who has 100T. Level 7 slut attacked 20 times and lost, then he was paid $14,000 by the level 10.  
+
== Penguin Sluts ==
 +
*A penguin slut is a variation of a slut where the seller typically has higher stats than the purchaser, and therefor would beat them in a regular fight. The slut is achieved by the purchaser drinking a [[Drinking|mixed drink]] called the [[Sorrowful Penguin]]. After drinking the Sorrowful Penguin, the drinker received 11-15 minutes of being [[sorrowful]]. This allows for the first three attacks by someone who wins against the drinker to lose and the timer is decreased by 5 minutes. Penguin sluts are the most expensive type of slut because the person who sells them generally are fighters that take pride in their high win percentage, which allows for greater experience.
  
−
Higher level sluts are harder to find, and they generally go cheaper than the 100*level rule. For instance, a hobo with level 26 would often offer their slutting services for 2k each attack.  
+
== Prepaid Sluts & Rapes ==
 +
*Prepaid sluts and rapes are usually purchased by gangs as an incentive to their fighters to continue leveling. Prepaids are usually tracked either on the sellers journal and/or in a thread on the gang's message board.
  
−
Generally half is paid to the slut before he/she starts slutting, the other half is paid after. You may want to also give the slut a tip depending on his/her performance.  
+
*Due to prepaids being tracked, it is typically not acceptable to use more than a few each reset, as this takes away from your fellow gang members. If you wish to use additional services, it is typically suggested that you purchase your own for personal use.
  
−
Always have a slut take off their weapons and armour before slutting. If you are the slut you need to make sure that you put all your money in the piggy bank before you attack.  
+
== Finding Sellers ==
 +
*The most common way to find sellers is to run a battle search for s50k, s100k, r10k, r50k, or some other variation, depending on level and how much the sellers charge. Most people who sell rapes or sluts will list their prices in their name.
  
−
Try to find a slut who you know you can beat, is on a different side of the city, and, if desired, from a different gang so you can get extra gang exp.  
+
*Do some price comparison when you are looking for rape/slut sellers. The higher the level and win% the more experience you will get when you attack them. It's important to factor in the various exp taxes & bonuses when comparing sellers and their prices.
  
−
Don't hire a slut with an incredibly bad win/lose score, if it is less that 35% wins, then a slut tax will be in affect and you lose half the exp gained.  
+
=== Taxes and Bonuses ===
 +
Depending on the losers win%, [[Side Wars|side placement]], [[gangs|gang]], and the number of [[fighting|battles]] you've had with them during the current [[reset]], the experience gained from defeating them fluctuates. All taxes and bonuses stack with each other. The ''same side tax'' can be avoided if you have the [[Bernard's_Mansion#Special_Items|Green Card]] and are the attacker.
  
−
== Rapes ==
+
*'''Experience Bonuses'''
−
Rapes is similar to slutting, except the buyer is using up his 'T' instead of the slut. Rapes are generally cheaper for that reason. The price of rapes can vary anywhere from 1K, to over 10K. Variables include the person's level, respect, win/loss percentage, and their stats.

**Exp increased by 60%. [Win percent 90%+]

There are two ways to make quick cash or to level up on this game, but like most shortcuts it has it's downsides.

What are Sluts and Rapes?

This allows for the first three attacks by someone who wins against the drinker to lose and the timer is decreased by 5 minutes. Penguin sluts are the most expensive type of slut because the person who sells them generally are fighters that take pride in their high win percentage, which allows for greater experience.

Prepaid Sluts & Rapes

  • Prepaid sluts and rapes are usually purchased by gangs as an incentive to their fighters to continue leveling. Prepaids are usually tracked either on the sellers journal and/or in a thread on the gang's message board.
  • Due to prepaids being tracked, it is typically not acceptable to use more than a few each reset, as this takes away from your fellow gang members. If you wish to use additional services, it is typically suggested that you purchase your own for personal use.

Before you become a rape or slut seller, answer the question of whether you are a beggar or a fighter. In general, if you are a beggar you won’t care about your win% so you can choose to do both rapes and sluts. If however you are a fighter, in general you would only want to sell sluts and penguin sluts in order to preserve your win percentage for a longer period.

General Suggestions

  • Level your hobo. This allows for a greater base of customers, but you will also be able to charge more due to the higher experience given.
