Money in Dead or Alive (DOA) Xtreme 3 comes in the form of Zack Coins and is necessary to purchase swimsuits, items, food, and beverages. Learn how to farm Zack Coins quickly.
In Dead or Alive (DOA) Xtreme 3, the game is primarily experienced in two ways: Girl Mode and Owner Mode. When in Girl Mode, the Zack Coins you receive are able to be spent by the girl you are currently having stay on vacation. When in Owner Mode, the Zack Coins you receive are able to be spent at any time by the Owner, regardless of which girl is currently staying on vacation.
Missions that help you progress the Satisfaction Rate of the girl and the Owner Level often require you to spend Zack Coins on various gifts to complete.
Girl Mode Zack Coin Farming
Poolside Relax Quitting (PSRQ)
You can pick any scene in which the girl can relax, but Poolside is the easiest way. Simply choose Poolside > Relax in Girl Mode then immediately quit it over and over. This will allow you to progress through the entire 14-day vacation in about 10 minutes and receive bonus rewards.
Selecting Poolside will prevent all the other girls from losing their initial Satisfaction Rates, giving you bonus Zack Dollars.
Completing Missions
Finishing Missions is one of the best ways to farm Zack Coins in Dead or Alive (DOA) Xtreme 3. They serve to not only give out payment rewards but also increase a girl’s Satisfaction Rate. The higher a girl’s Satisfaction Rate is, the more Zack Coins she will receive when doing any activity.
Always do easy missions that do not require you to spend money, as this will quickly level your girl’s Satisfaction Rate and the Owner Level. When you find a mission is too difficult or will take too long to see through, switch to Owner Mode back at the hotel and select the “Quit Mission” option. This will give you a new mission the following day.
Beach Volleyball
When you reach a Satisfaction Rate of 3 or higher, then win Beach Volleyball matches against another team with a difficulty of Normal or higher, you can easily make over 100,000 Zack Coins per game.
Be sure to wear a swimsuit your girl likes while doing so, as this will continue to help improve her Satisfaction Rate.
Owner Mode Zack Coin Farming
Having Zack Coins in Owner Mode is debatably more important than in Girl Mode due to the greater selection of exclusive outfits and items that can be purchased in the Owner Shop.
Gifts can also be wrapped with the Owner’s design and sent repeatedly without additional expense if a girl rejects it.
Roulette
When you return to the hotel for the night with your girl, visit the Casino in Owner Mode.
- Pick the Roulette minigame and choose the bet stakes appropriate to how many Zack Coins you currently have on hand.
- For > 200,000 Zack Coins, select 100. If > 100,000 < 200,000 Zack Dollars, select 50. If < 100,000 Zack Dollars, select 10.
- Go and equally spread your chips across slots 1-18. This will give you a 50% chance of winning. Maximize the number of chips in a given number if you can. If betting 100, you can risk as much as 250,000 Zack Coins.
- If you win, you will receive anywhere between 300,000 – 500,000 Zack Coins.
- Rinse and repeat.
Poker
When you return to the hotel for the night with your girl, visit the Casino in Owner Mode.
- Pick the Poker minigame and choose the bet stakes appropriate to how many Zack Coins you currently have on hand.
- Start with a winning hand of any kind (can be as little as One Pair). If not, keep folding until you start with a hand that has the potential to win during Showdown.
- Once you have a winning hand, raise the bet to the highest possible amount. This usually psyches out the AI and makes them all fold.
- Rinse and repeat.
