Euph's Guide to Becoming Elite
Source: Euphoria [1443076], thread t=16525974. Karma 37,651. Wiki Contributor. Top 20 stats (10T+, 500B networth). Updated April 2026.
Recommended Stat Build (Dex Meta)
Ratio example: 5 Str : 1 Def : 2 Spd : 3 Dex (or e.g. 5B : 1B : 2B : 3B)
The meta right now favours Dex for RW. Build toward special gyms.
Elite Dex End-Game Build: - Stats: 3B Str / 0 Def / 2B Spd / 5B Dex - Armor: Vanguard set - Job: Private Security Firm (bonus flash) or Gents Strip (bonus Tyrosine) - Use Tyrosine + Flash/Needles = terror vs the vast majority of the game
Training sequence: Get into a Gents/Ladies Strip → train Dex to 5B and unlock special gym → then join a Restaurant for Str/Speed training with books and cans.
Training Rules
- Stop wasting energy mugging noobs for tiny cash. Every energy point goes in the gym.
- FHCs are not worth it unless the cost is less than your daily ROI (stock dividends + company income)
- Once ratio is set, spend booster money only when you net more than you spend daily
- Don't rush SEs until 3B+ in a stat. Before that, daily training compounds faster.
Company Priority
For training (energy): - 10* Restaurant: Best energy-per-cost with cans (16 red bulls/day > FHCs, much cheaper) - Strips (Gents/Ladies): Great for Def/Dex whoring, unlocks special gym faster - Fitness Centre: OK, +3% all gym gains
For Ranked Wars: - 7-10* Candle Shop: Best energy output (5E per JP). Best war company. - Farms: 7E per JP but only 9* every other week - PSF: Extra flash ammunition, good income, armor bonuses - Candle gives income from RW also
Avoid: Poor Logistics for 2M/day. Company perks must outweigh opportunity cost.
Ranked War Quick Guide
- Join a Candle Shop for max energy (5E per JP)
- Buy 2-3 MCS BB tiers (+200-300 energy per war)
- Get Assault set as base armor (~1B for full set)
- Warlord weapon or Armalite/Enfield with good mods
- Learn to roll needles, use med cooldown efficiently, revive strategically
- Just doing the above makes you better than most active players in the game
Merits Priority (Euph's Order)
- Life — max first
- Critical — max second
- Rifle mastery — max
- Stat passives (Str/Def/Spd/Dex) — spread evenly, ignore the one you're not training
- Bank — 7+ for passive income
- Education and Nerve Bar — early, then reset once educations done
- Stealth and Awareness = ZERO. Never put merits here.
- Crit and Life take 55 merits each to max. "I'd rather have 5/5 in both than 10 in just one."
Weapons Tier List (Current Meta)
Primary (Rifle): - Best: Enfield > Armalite > Tavor/Sig - Perks: Yellow = Penetrate > Powerful > Specialist > Deadeye - Perks: Orange = Deadeye > Puncture/Penetrate > Powerful/Specialist - Perks: Red = Deadeye/Puncture > Specialist/Penetrate > Powerful
Secondary: - Assassinate pistol with high damage - Best: Derringer > QSZ > Baretta
Melee: - Kodachi / DBK / Macana - Target perks: Parry, Eviscerate, Quicken, Fury, Rage
Temporary: - Needles priority: Epinephrine > Tyrosine/Serotonin > Melatonin - Smoke for faction war support, Flash for Dex builds
Ammo: - Armor Piercing > Incendiary > Tracer > Normal >> Hollowpoint - Always be stacking special ammo
Ammo sources: Duke Missions > Stock Block > Big Al's Shoplifting > Job Points
Weapon Mods: Recoil Pad > Laser Sight >> Flashlight/Accuracy Mods
Armor Tiers
- Assault set (budget ~1B, decent base)
- Delta set (attacking, but headshots hurt)
- Marauder helmet + Assault body
- Vanguard
- Sentinel
- EOD (top tier, very expensive)
Rule: "Never spend more on equipment than your total stats in $"
SE (Stat Enhancer) Rules
- Don't SE before 100B networth or until you can afford 3-4 SEs/month without losing money
- Most average players: Don't SE before 3B in a stat
- Cost to double a stat: ~70 SEs = ~31.5B. Very expensive.
- Even 1 SE/month compounds massively over time (exponential)
- SEs are about saving days of training. Unless buying multiple at once, not urgent.
Money Rules
- Run PSF/Logistics/Oil Rig/TV: generates 15-50M/day passive
- Max bank merits + keep 2B invested
- Buy all stocks with 20%+ ROI
- Golden rule: Never spend more than you earn daily. Gambling and overspending are the #1 demise of accounts.
- Target 100B networth → at that point 1% in stock fund = ~2 SEs/month automatically
