· 6 likes · We have had a few SSL players in our faction. We've had the ones who stack on lsd and spend the full week stacking (totally negating any benefit from the better gym gains). We've had ones who don't do anything …
So how do you guys using SSL gym chain and in general compete with the normal player who uses Xanax. Refills don’t compete at all with stacking and cans would cost a fortune. I’m struggling to see how if you want to war often how you could go down the no drugs route but I’m considering it all the same. Also is it under 50 uses for SSL?
SSL players are not good chainers/war players unless they are rich af and can afford cans and stuff. You can use LSD but it only gives 50e with the same cooldown as xanax. SSL is a tough route to go down and at the end of the day even if you reach the end I haven't seen enough proof to prove that its worth it.
If you want to try however by all means do, but do know that all the days that you won't be taking xanax you'll be falling behind the ones that do take xanax.
If you decided to go on the SSL route. You must be able to gain immense amount of net worth to be relevant in torn. If you can't earn billions and billions. It is better to be a xanax user.
Rarely see a ssl thread now.. Ssl route can have a different route in chain too. Example, take a ketamine and be a wall sitter. But yeah, you have to spend a lot of cans to keep up with xan user. Best to ask Josephine about ssl, but not sure if she is so 5 around in torn?
Daily refill, natural E regeneration, Smoogle energy (just plan ahead to have it ready for chain time), FHC's and energy cans, and LSD. You might not be the top chain-er but you can normally meet your 1% target of chains etc and be a good chain watcher. You do need to have some funds though.

We've had ones who don't do anything to make up for not using xanax because they can't afford cans/FHCs, don't want to use any drugs, and aren't active enough to come online every time their natural e is about to fill up. Those ones don't last long before they get kicked
We've had people who are just super active to make up for it. You get 720e in natural e per day and a refill for 150e extra. That's 34 attacks. If your faction does slow enough chains you can make your 1% that way. You can definitely be active enough not to be kicked, since most factions aren't kicking people who are a little under 1%.
And we've had people who spend a lot of money on cans and FHCs, either just using them in the chain/war, or doing a full stack with cans beforehand as well. Some SSL users say they do it because they save money on xanax and rehab, and if so, that's money they can spend on boosters. But those players are rare, and usually also hit a bit of a stats slowdown compared to their peers when they get to SE-point, because they've been spending all their income on boosters and cans instead of building NW.
In general what already said above by people before me.
But if its me though, in SSL? I wont be in SSL, if i am in SSL, then i wont be doing any war, minimum or close to zero chain. Just dont do energy intensive activity at all, because you have a very long way to go to catch up your progress to xanax users. By doing war/chain, you will only be lagging behind much further and longer from your peers.
Then how can i find faction to stay that allow no chain or war? It wont be easy but they exist. Factions that have minimal or no chain, no war, mostly focusing on crimes/bust/revive/oc.
Lol for long term this strategy isn't effective. However SSL CAN still war because med cd + revive cd > drug cd or booster cd. Unless you're the main roasters, usually med cd gets maxed before any cd for energy. So just be really smart on managing med cd, choose your battle, do your war tasks n you will be gold in war ssl or not. Secondly job special is vital for u. Imo go with candle or farm if you are in ssl
I really should have a job which gives energy for job points, but i cant i have to have the mug protection in the clothing store job. Look at my bazaar.
I was in a tiny faction before i joined this one about 6 months ago, i dont even have the merit for doing 100 hits in a chain. Not so good ...
On ranked wars im towards the high end of the stat range. I do on occassion get the chance to use cooldown on hitting but not a lot unfortunately. Im a energy sponge in ranked wars i do get targeted a lot ... the sneaky field mice spy on my stats and they dont let me do a lot in wars rabid field mice do group attack me.. its so bad im resigned to the fact from now on i have to use serotonin in ranked wars.
On chains i have used FHC in the last one to do my share and will continue to do so and this elderly blind field mouse wants to get the merit for doing 100 hits in a chain next time if it fits in with my work schedule. Squeak.
Chains/ranked wars are best done at the weekend for me.
