Hey there Battle Bots!!
With the New DC Event there are some questions arising on just how to progress in the Event with limited Characters, more specifically when it comes to Battles with Thugs & Gangs.
In this post I will go over the Basics of the Battles to help you out, so take a peek below and see if this resolves your questions/issues.
For the Main Event Post, go HERE
For the Main Phase 1 Questline, go HERE
WHEN WILL THE THUGS APPEAR?
There are two different kinds that you can currently Battle…
THUG: will not trigger until you start Fight or Flight Pt. 3
GANG OF THUGS: Triggers around Fight or Flight Pt. 7
WHAT DO I NEED TO START A BATTLE?
First, you will need to collect Super Vitamins as they are needed each fight, no matter Character or Thug used.
Thug Battle: Requires FOUR Super Vitamins per Battle
Gang of Thugs Battle: Requires SIX Super Vitamins per Battle
Super Vitamins (Rare): Chris Peek Into Neighbor’s Medicine Cabinet OR Bruce Buy Vitamins OR Jerome Search “Lost and Found” Box OR Bottle City of Kandor OR Peter Confiscate Pills
If you do NOT have the amount of Super Vitamins required, you will see “NOT READY” on the Battle screen no matter what Character(s) you select.
Once you have the amount of required Super Vitamins, then “FIGHT” will appear once you select your Character(s).
HOW DO I SELECT A CHARACTER?
Just tap on either of the + signs on the Main Battle Screen.
It will take you to the Character Selection Screen. If you see a lock on the Character, you do not have them available.
Tap on the Character(s) you want to use for the current Battle and a check mark will appear on them. If you want just one, that is fine. Then tap on “GO” to take you back to Battle Screen.
WHAT CHARACTERS CAN BATTLE?
The Characters you can use will depend on WHO you are battling…
THUG CHARACTERS:
Superman: Hit 3, Damage 4
Wonderwoman: Hit 3, Damage 4
Superman Peter: Hit 2, Damage 2
GANG OF THUGS CHARACTERS:
Superman: Hit 3, Damage 4
Wonderwoman: Hit 3, Damage 4
Now their Hit Power and/or Damage it takes to defeat them may change as Event progresses, I am not sure on this… but we will have to see what happens as the Event progresses. I hope at least their Damage will increase so they last longer and can fight more Thugs/Gangs.
DO I NEED TWO CHARACTERS TO BATTLE?
Not really, NO! This all depends on how fast you progress in the game but more importantly the STRENGTH of the Thugs/Gang of Thugs.
In other words, you ONLY NEED ONE CHARACTER TO BATTLE.
Two will make it go faster and give you better chances, but only one is required to Battle. More on this below so keep reading.
Now that you have the Basics, let’s look at a few Battles so you can see how the Thug/Gang of Thugs chosen as well as Character selection WILL make a difference.
THUG BATTLES
The first thing I will do is get you familiar with WHAT you want to watch for when picking a Thug to Battle.
Look around your town for all the available Thugs. In my game, I had 2 of each.
Tap on each individual one and look for TWO things on the Battle Screen…
- How much Damage can they Inflict on your Character (Fist)?
- How many Hits will it take to Defeat them (Bars)?
You are looking for an opponent that is weaker than your current Character(s) you can use.
Let’s look at an example:
This Thug can Inflict 1 Hit each (shown by the fist) on your Character, and it will take 2 Damage in return from your Character to defeat him (shown by the bars).
So if you use Superman Peter, you have decent odds as Peter can Inflict 2 Damage with each Punch and it will take two Hits to defeat Peter.
In short, your one Hit with Peter (2 Damage) is better than the Hit from the Thug (1 Damage). You will win this Battle with Peter
Another Scenario with Odds of failure high…
In this Scenario, Peter still has a good Hit Power (+2 Fist), however… he will go down with 2 Damage to him. Where as the Thug has a low Hit Power (+1 Fist), but he needs EIGHT Damage to take him down.
In short, in two hits Peter does 4 damage and the Thug still has 4 more left. The Thug will hit Peter just once with 2 Damage and Peter will go down. You will lose this fight. Now if you have Superman, the odds are better.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I LOSE?
If you do not have enough to take down a Thug the first time, you can always try again once your Character heals up. Then it is just a matter of tapping on the Thugs roaming around to find the one that is down from 6 to 2 Damage remaining, then Battle them again.
You will only be rewarded ONE Super Vitamin for a loss.
(You will also notice the harder Thugs will give you a lil more payout if you do win.)
GANG OF THUG BATTLES
I will tell you right off, you WILL need one of the following to happen to defeat a Gang of Thugs.
- Use one Character (Wonder Woman) twice
- Use two Characters (Wonder Woman & Superman) once
The reason for this is the Gang has much higher Hit and Damage, so it will take you multiple battles to defeat them with one or you have a good chance defeating them right away with two.
Again, try to find a Gang of Thugs that will benefit you the best during a fight. One with Hit and Damage that won’t hurt your Character too bad, but that you can defeat with your Characters Hit.
Scenario…
This group of Thugs will go up against Wonder Woman. She can only Inflict 3 Damage where as the Gang will inflict 6 Damage right off. She has no chance. She will lose this fight.
No worries though, once she heals… find the group again (you will see their bars now showing the recent Damage from her last battle) and try again. You can see they now only have 2 Bars left, so her attack at 3 WILL win the Battle this time.
WHAT IS HEALING?
Each time your Character goes into Battle, they will take Damage. In order to be able to use them again they must heal from that Damage back to their full Capacity (Bars all filled up).
There are a few ways to Heal your Character. First tap on any Thug or Gang of Thugs and then go to the Character Select Screen (tap on +). Here you will see your Character has taken Damage and “HEAL” is showing over them.
Depending just how badly they were last hurt, will depend on the time to heal and/or the Clam Cost to Heal them instantly.
Here are the times I saw in my game, let me know if you saw Differently.
1 Bar: 2-3hrs Heal Time (saw both)
2 Bars: (No info yet)
3 Bars: 9hrs Heal Time
4 Bars: 12hrs Heal Time
CLAM OPTION:
If you want to Heal them Instantly, there is of course the Clam Buy Out Option. You may seen one on the screen like show above (32 Clams for 4 Bars), but you can also just tap on “HEAL” over the Character to see individual options.
You can select a specific amount of Bars you want to Heal your Character too. Either fully Heal or Partially Heal them and wait out the rest of the time. All OPTIONAL.
Here are the options I saw per my game for Clam Healing
1 Bar: 8 Clams
3 Bars: 24 Clams
5 Bars: 40 Clams
If you take one of the 3 Clam Options from the Heal Screen, you will see “HEAL” appear over the one you selected. Tap on “HEAL” to add what you just purchased to your Character (s)
CHARACTERS MUST HAVE FULL BARS TO BE ABLE BATTLE
HOW CAN I SEE HOW FAR MY CHARACTER IS HEALED?
Now if you have no Thugs wandering and have no idea what status your Character(s) currently have, there is a shortcut. Just go find them in the Hall of Justice.
Tap on it to open the Hero/Outfit section, locate your Character(s), tap on them to see their Current Status.
You can see in mine that Wonder Woman is completely down from Damage,
Superman is ready to Battle,
Peter needs to heal one more Bar in order to be ready to Battle.
WHAT ARE THE REWARDS?
This will depend on where you are in the game as far as Extra items, but here is a general idea of Payouts.
THUGS:
1 Man Tears
OR
2 Man Tears (for Harder to Defeat Thugs)
22 Sacks of Cash
GANG OF THUGS:
42 Sacks of Cash
EITHER BATTLE LOSS PAYOUT:
1 Superman Vitamin
FULL ON BATTLE
Now that you have an overall idea, let’s run through some Battles.
Here is a Thug Battle from start to end. I have selected a low level Thug to go up against Peter.
The Battle plays out in the separate screen as Peter deals one blow and inflicts TWO Damage on the Thug.
Since the Thug could only take Two Damage before he went down, Peter won this Battle.
Here is a Gang of Thugs Battle from start to end. I selected Wonder Woman as she is the “Freemium” option for Players. Now the Gang of Thugs are more difficult to take down. These guys will inflict 6 Hit Power against Wonder Womans 3 and will take 5 Damage to defeat them.
It goes to the Battle scene…
Wonder Woman was not strong enough nor could she inflict enough Damage to take them down, so she lost. Reward is ONE Super Vitamin.
PART TWO
The Gang of Thugs Wonder Woman just fought are tracked down for a second fight (I used Clams to instantly Heal her. you can wait for the Heal Time). The Gang of Thugs are down to only Two Damage remaining, so this will be easier.
Another Battle Scene Plays out.
This time Wonder Woman was able to defeat them. She did take on full Damage too and will need to heal again, but she was able to win the Battle and get the Reward.
TWO CHARACTER BATTLE
Now for those of you that have more than One Character to Battle. It will go a lot faster and you will be more likely to Win more Battles.
Superman & Wonder Woman Battle VS Gang of Thugs
6 Hit inflict capability and 5 Damage required for this Gang of Thugs.
Superman & Wonder Woman can Inflict 6 Hit Total and take on 8 Damage Total from the Gang of Thugs.
Both Characters are selected and the Battle is started by tapping on “FIGHT”
Battle scene plays out…
Gang of Thugs are Defeated, Reward given, Superman & Wonder Woman took Damage of 3 each (the 6 split between them) and will need to Heal before the next Battle.
QUICK RECAP
- Collect Super Vitamins
- Find a Thug/Gang of Thugs you can easily Battle
- Pick a Character (s) that will cause the most Damage and win the Battle
- Collect Reward
There you have it, the overall idea of the Battles and the best ways to approach them. Hope this helps you understand that you CAN do it with just one Character. You just need to select the right Thugs and may need to fight more than once towards same Thugs.
How are you doing in the Battles? Does this help you more? Any other tips you would offer fellow Players? Any more questions on the Battles not covered? Let us know.

So in order to play this super hero family guy game you have to buy clams to finish this event. I guess I’m only going to have Peter because you have to buy clams for Superman in order to fight thugs with Peter, hoe is that fair?

No. You do NOT have to buy clams. Every game in existence will always have “premium” options to pay to keep the games alive. So there is no way in any shape or form to avoid “premiums”. How YOU game is YOUR choice. If you want EVERYTHING, then yes, you will have to pay. If you just want to play the game and see what you get… then go for it. There are always ways of doing things Freemium. They will take longer and you won’t get everything… but it is doable.
And if you notice this post notes many many many times, you only need ONE Character to Battle. It will take longer on harder battles… but you can do it. 😉

7 thugs in 48 hour. Used al possible characters and set timers. Yeah, it 48 hours I got a total of 7 vitaminS. What an absolute joke. I usually get at least the first 2-3 prizes, but to not even get the first week is BS.
Unlocked Wonder woman, good thing she was free because she totally useless, does absolutely nothing for this event.
Cost of krypto goes up and up, yet still only get 3.
Very shocked that I got Peter halfway through the week and wonder woman on say 5. Bought superman, just because it’s superman, but at least he’s being useful.
Week one was really good, but we’ve all seen that before and know what to expect for the rest of this event.

It’s dropped for me. It doesn’t seem fully though. The asylum has Aquaman trapped and you have to free him. It said he’s timed. There was s repair hammer but when I clicked on it it doesn’t seem to work yet. I’ve been amassing Kryptonite so I bought all the items already that have drops. The only items left for me are Lazuras pit, two faces hide out, catwoman Lois and Batcave is the very last item.
Killer Croc is the next thing you have to clear like Brainiac. You need fish food I think it was called which joe, Bonnie, and I think the iceberg lounge, and a premium building drop. Batman costs 320 clams and always drops a vitamin, crocodile sewer 240 always drops 16 of new loot, lost city 130 and drops fish food hook thing. And it looks like you fight Bane and Catwoman Lois is the one that you need not sure if there are others.
LikeLike
Not sure if this sent but week two loaded for me already. Premium stuff Batman 320 drops vitamin and fights bane, croc lair 240 drops new loot, lost city 130 drops hook needed to fight Killer Croc which is like Brainiac. Aquaman is at the asylum and from the in game text it sounds like he will be timed. There is a hammer build icon but it doesn’t seem to work when I click on it. I had surplus Kryptonite so I bought everything but 4 items which are Lazuras pit, Twoface hideout, Catwoman Lois, and the final item is the Batcave. Lois is needed to fight Bane.

Hi Bunny, tiny co- always full of surprises I guess. – new content is already out (hit for me about 12:30 am CST). Playing on iOS. And they had the countdown timer running in parking garage which indicated a WEDNESDAY 5 pm CST release of new content. That’s why I think this question was asked. Batman 320 clams- a bit steep but couldn’t resist. He does have a 4 hour task for super vitamins. There is also a clam buy for 9.99 and you also get 12 vitamins with that too.

Hmm, the Parking garage upgraded for me last night. I now have Batman available and Crocs running round and Aquaman is available to unlock…seems like it’s partially released if not officially. However I have cleared 2 Crocs which didn’t drop jewels so there seems to be some issues which may be because it isn’t ‘officially’ released maybe? The Parking garage counter did count down to last night though, not tonight. It currently now has a countdown till ‘Joker Week’, though the Joker icon is a headless horseman and not The Joker.
I didn’t try unlocking Aquaman yet so I don’t know if there is any issues with him, because it has a 7 day timer I didn’t want to start it. (The FAQ also updated for me with Week 2 info which is why I know it has a timer).

That is because the two, as you can see in this very post, are completely separate. One is an Individual… the other the Group of 3 and also WAYYYYYY harder to defeat for majority of players. 😉

Is battling going to be dependent on pills for the entire event? Because the pill drop rate is ludicrously low. I have all four farming them and often get zero or one to drop.

Hi, everyone. Does anyone know if there would be any characters in Weekly Challenges?
I just want to decide on whether to even try performing them. I get pills very rarely. In fact, 1-2 pills in 3 full attempts by ALL characters who drop them. So I have had only 3 fights so far in all these days. Looks like 7 thugs are simply impossible to beat in 2 days at this rate.
I would speed up and spend clams only and only if I get new characters as prizes for weekly challenges.
Anyone any idea?

At least I haven’t had to worry about waiting for SM Peter to heal yet. He’s always well-healed by the time I manage to scrounge up 4 more vitamins, at least 8-12 hrs later (if I’m lucky).
