Q_Q [502869]

for some reason i get 1/4 green and the rest is blue from kidnapping mayor
would it be better doing gta 1 crimes or warehouse arson than doing the kidnapping?
im at 55 nb and 5/10 crimes exp merits
Lvcy [1991105]

Best estimate so far is one successful kidnap mayor equals six successful warehouse arsons in CE gained. If you're failing more frequently than 5 out of 6 tries, you might as well do warehouse arsons. Kidnap mayor does have a high non-success rate, similar to stealth virus. Only do the GTA crimes for the merits, they do not give much CE.

GTA for parked car is considered safe, but it doesn't yield much crime experience. Warehouse arson definitely yields more experience than stealing parked cars and is safe from jailings (you'll land in the hospital, but that doesn't affect your CE).

its really impossible to tell
but it is believed that no jail - no loss of exp, or at least very little loss

If it does it is only by a very minimal amount - players have been using arson warehouse to rank up for too long for the hospital reds to be doing much damage to o your crime exp.
Butters [34298]

A blue fail does not remove crime exp as far as anyone has been able to tell, but they hurt your crime exp gains in their own way as large numbers of blue fails means you're not gaining much crime exp for the nerve you are using.

On another note - iIs there any evidence out there to back up the assertion that the crime exp gain from one kidnap mayor success = 6 x arson warehouse success?

Keep in mind that arsons have a fairly large failure rate, too, with lots of blue results. If the arson blue rate is 50% (that's just a guess, but I think that's about what I had when I was doing them) and 1 successful kidnap mayor is the equivalent of 6 successful arsons, then you would really have to fail at kidnapping a *lot* to not make it worthwhile.

I've found doing warehouse arsons much more easier than kidnapping the mayor, i get a lot more blues/reds from mayor in comparison to my warehouse. That's just me tho

There are lots of merits to be earned clicking crimes in different categories.
Think about that if you are clicking crimes with a low green %
Kidnaps have a very high brown % i tried it for months in my earlier days i would say 50% brown results.
