PVP

***PVP*** is a big mechanic in the game. People will hit-- or "*farm*" -- others. The benefits being you might get more cash from successfully hitting people. You can give your target(s) a CF: bentos, misc, or anything that is possible and in game. Mind ATA's TOS, CF has to be possible to obtain.

## CF - Cease Fire

A Cease Fire is when your farmer gives you a set of rules or conditions you need to complete for them to stop hitting you. Usually this consists of you paying them Bentos or Stat items, and can come with conditions like don't house their targets, be in clubs they're in SFW with, etc.

## DTW/DTS

DTW or Defender too Weak, means your opponent is either out of Regen/Energy or they are too small for you to hit.

DTW or Defender too Strong, means what the heck are you doing trying to pick a fight with a big??! Lol. This means your opponent is way too strong for you to attack and PIMD is protecting you from making a mistake.

## Farming Tags

A farming tag is a group of individuals who will farm clubs or players as a group in order to get a quicker resolve or CF. Usually farming tags have a "tag" in their IGN or status that signifies what tag they are affiliated with.

## Defending Yourself

You are a target, you feel helpless, and have no idea how to defend yourself?

First, you need to set up your account to defend yourself.

Buy misc (stat items, 3mcs:1b) and try maxing your misc capacity. You can see your maximum capacity in your bonus breakdown.

Upgrade your pet, the higher the % the better. To get items you need to ug your pet(s). You'll have to upgrade other pets along with it to get pet boxes. If your main pet is an owl, make a secondary pet not a bird etc.

Focus on upgrading your higher ranked pet first "super rare", when you have to wait for resources upgrade a "rare" pet.

***Do not use a common pet as a main pet.***

Buy tutors, it's ideal to buy tutors that don't really mean much to you. While it's nice to make friends with your tutors, it's a weakness and makes it easy to force volley or strip you. Hire tutors you can keep up with when they upgrade. If you can't keep up with them, they'll only slow down your growth. Try finding inactive, underpriced tutors, or semi-actives. It's ideal to have your top 20 be tuts people would find troublesome to strip.

Upgrade your furniture. Buy recycled furniture in bulk and upgrade your dorm. Pick one dorm to be your main dorm. It's alright to collect cute dorms, but one needs to be upgraded if you want to stand a chance. Always upgrade your furniture to level 11 yourself! It gives you an award with bonus stats connected to it!

Try to upgrade your furniture yourself as you get rewards with stats attached to them-- once you get to level 11.

Get a high % avatar, they come out with avatars often. The higher the % the better. Buying shards with bentos off others is cheaper than trying to open the boxes.

Buy defense items:

I always have about 1000 of each defense item🤷🏽‍♀️

Have a relationship that compliment or compensates your stats. It awesome rsing your bestie, your lover, etc., but if you want to be able to handle yourself you need a rs your stats or higher. If you're a strength build, find an Intel based rs to compensate; or find a strength build to compliment.

Go on dates:

When you have a rs you can activate defense/attack dates. This can help raise the % of winning attacks.

Make friends/connections. Unfortunately, that's the way it goes. If nothing else, make a friend who's ready to jump into action to attack back for you🤷🏽‍♀️

If all else fails, hire a farmer.
