Arson, most nerve intensive crime per skill gain?

your not meant to get to skill 100 in a few days.. 

I actually think most crimes are too fast.. puts more pressure on the devs to release the next one

I agree. I’m not advocating for it being easier or even harder. I was just wondering if other people were having the same experience. I got disposal to 75 in about a week of clearing jobs, and arson has been a very slow crawl. I prefer it taking longer. 

I don't think any of us should be rushing to get to level 100 on any of the crimes, we'll be complaining here in a few weeks about how bored we are...

You didnt wantto start at the begining and work up on the lower criems first? I think that would help you build a good base.

Not really, I did enough to get the items I needed for the higher crimes. When I’ve got extra nerve, and once I hit 100 in arson/diaposal, I’m going to take the time between crimes being released to go back and max out the earlier crimes. 

Good idea in theory, and if you are having fun then go with it :)

In reality you had a worse CE to nerve gain from the higher failure rates, so will spend more nerve and take longer to get them all done, but Torn is a marathon not a sprint so get your enjoyment where you find it :)

Have to agree here.  Not that you won't catch me grumbling and mumbling in protest from time to time. 

The higher failure rates from the earlier crimes? I noticed that on pickpocketing, search for cash, etc..

What Arson jobs are you running / your process? My chart looks incredibly inefficient.

I just do 15-20 nerve jobs with no stoking or dampening.

I'm at 5036 Green and almost 84 Arson now.  21,850 Nerve used so far according to Torn.Report.  Probably not going as efficient as I should be.  Really like the Flamethrower!

The beauty of Arson is you can go money efficient way or nerve efficient way. Just use gasoline a lot, you will save a lot of money. But If you use costlier Arson material, you will be saving a lot of nerves. Finding a right combination of Arson materials for each type of job is the need here.

Coming off scamming crime, arson CS is flying in comparison. 

Did a few here and there when.it was released,  but past few days been putting in some work and able to clear all the daily arsons with refill and booze , will hit 30 CS after a couple more from today i still need to do.

Unlocked,  methane,  oxygen,  magnesium,  potassium and  diesel .

I think some people are overdoing it with materials/nerve use but, its possible to finish quite a few  with only 13 -18 nerve per.

Arson for now not stonks, hope 90 CS or higher have better rewards

It makes most sense to do the crimes easiest to hardest because higher chance of success + lower nerve cost means you get more out of your nerve bar.

I have followed this and taught this method, I am halfway through scamming now, use my spare bitty nerve to get arson materials rather than pay

100%
How long have they been out for now and I’ve already maxed every one… (bar arson)

I started thinking it would be as nerve intensive as cracking, but after I started it (2 days ago) I noticed it's even worse lol. Of course, as a new player starting a crime, you will be doomed to dump a lot of nerve trying to figure it out how to do stuff.

But I think that in the long run it can be more intensive than cracking.

At least you are positive, I am net negative

But, now Stonks not even really Stonks. 

Thats wild. You seem to have a high crit failure rate also. any idea what's causing it? I've got slightly more than you, but only 4 crit fails
