Bampers' Super ToonTown Help Thread for Just About Anyone New!

[bampers]

Welcome! It seems you have stumbled across my little guide for new Toons to ToonTown!
This thread should cover-
Cog HPs
Merits/Cogbucks/etc.: how you get them, and how to get them quick~!
Suit Promotions
Gags
Strategies
Uber Toonage

Lets start out with Gags.
As a new Toon, your duty is to learn, grow, and deliver erasers. While you do this, make sure to kill just a few extra Cogs. That way, you get more expeirience in what seems like a shorter amount of time. If you don't have any Level Two or Three gags, those few extra Cogs could get you on your way up.
Bampers here recommends that you focus on Throw gags a little more than Squirt. Throw is more powerful. To help 'equalise' your gags damage on the Cogs, plant your Squirt gags in trees. That will get you a few exrta damage points.
When you choose your gags for the first time, you should go with Toon Up. That way you can immediately start helping to heal Toons. In TTC, you aren't going to be fighting two or three Cogs at a time, unless you are very unlucky, so Sound wouldn't be my top choice. Before you choose Drop or Lure, make sure you have at least the Lipstick in Toon Up. You need to have enough stronger gags in each gag track you have so you can focus easier on the newer one. I recommend you choose Lure, it compliments ToonUp well. If you lure a Cog succesfully, then it is 'asleep' for a while. That gives you time to heal your comrades in battle. Say you don't have anyone fighting with you, then you have time to call a doodle, or you can just attack and do extra damage. Both lure and drop have low accuracy, but lure is more helpful in the long run, I believe. By the time you can choose Gags, again, I believe you should have at leat these gags:
Toonup: Dance
Lure: $5 Bill
Throw: Whole Fruit Pie
Squirt: Water Pistol
If you don't, avoid choosing gags until you achieve these gags.
When you DO choose a new track, pick Trap. Trap is the most powerful gag track. TNT, the second strongest of Trap gags, is capable of destroying a Level 11 Cog. That is very powerful. It takes a while to train, though. My retired Toon, Firebolt, was at 70 Laff before she got the Trap Door (Third Strongest Trap).
When you pick your final gag track, get sound. Train it in empty districts in places like Donalds Dock or Daisy Gardens, and follow up with a nice strong Throw. Going Dropless is the key, I think. Dropless may be powerful, but it's accuracy is low. Trap is more powerful, and TRap never misses.
So dont choose Drop.

Dislamer: Just because Bampers says not to pick a certain gag doesn't mean that you cant pick it. If you don't like my guide, please just go along on your own way and not post rude things here. Thanks!

Uber Toons...
I have a uber! His name is Citrus, he's an orange dog. He took a while to train, but aren't all ubers?
Well, to start, what is an uber? To put it simply, an uber is a Toon with a generally low amount of Laff (I would say under 40) but have very powerful gags. An example would be:
Bob is an uber. He has 25 Laff. His gags are: Juggling, Wedding Cake, and Storm Cloud.
With an uber, you usually have only three or four gag tracks (ex. Toonup, throw, sound, squirt). This can cause some disadvantages, but the pros weigh out the cons.
How do you 'make' an uber? First, you make a Toon. Give him a cool sounding name, that works well with Uber-age. I say you should concentrate on throwing and squirting, not getting Toonup or Sound or Laff. Before you have 20 Laff, make sure to have at least a Whole Cream Pie and a Seltzer Bottle. When you have 25 Laff, work only on larger pouches and getting your Toonup or Sound track. Stay at 25 for a long while until you get Pixie Dust of an Elephant Trunk, then try going to 30. I say STOP at 30, I believe thats how far you should go when you are an uber. Just do Toontasks that give you Jellybeans and larger Jars or Gag space. Then, move on to SellBot HQ factories. You might get 'rejected' because of your Laff, but eventually you'll get the necessary parts. Defeat the VP a few times, and you'll be very proud of your work.
How do I start?
After you make a Toon, get on the trolley ALOT and try to get Max on all games. You'll need all the jellybeans you can hold so you can constantly recharge your gags. Just go to a Quiet district and kill cogs. Don't stop to get a drink of water, just keep clicking that mouse until you are about to fall out of your chair and sleep.



Not really. Take rests regurally, or else your eyes'll go bad.
Thanks, and stay Tooned for more!
