I just want to add an even easier escape. Come out the main gate, then go left and follow the wall back to the ocean. Jump in, dive down deep and just swim. You’ll escape before you run out of breath and won’t be seen by anyone and you won’t have to kill another guard.
I struggled to do this solo and just went for the submarine approach but following this route/ guide worked a treat and I was able to do it solo with ease
@@RedNitrate yeah I've done it quite a few times now I set the north dock as the infiltration point and head to the airstrip for secondary loot and then use the drainage tunnel and escape buy swimming as far as I can
Thank u sm bro I would only steal the tequila bottle n swim away bc I would approach with a kosatka this literally doubles my money in each heist i do🙏🏻
A few viewers were asking me for a Cayo Perico heist guide recently, and I finally got time to make one! Now if only I had a method for avoiding the cooldown timer...
There is one, disconnect your internet (works on pc) the very moment "Heist passed" pops up, you will be put in gta 5, then reconnect with internet. You will get your money but your heist will still be ready to start, no preps or cooldown needed
Use long fin as entrance vehicle, go to airstrip, loot, then take boat to drainage tunnel, do the main route, then get bike and go south to get out faster
@@BoldAMATUER wdym just swim? To the compound? The boat is way faster, if ur talking about the bike going south, there is a small hill when going south that u go off with the bike into the water and it insta pulls u from the heist
Guide is fantastic (thank you). Note to new viewers: There has since been an update where guards can see dead bodies so when you break into the compound you have to be more select about the guards you take out on your route to the office and on your escape. Be mindful of the guards that patrol and may see a dead bodie.
Thanks for commenting about this, I've been wanting to cover it in a video but completely ran out of time. I'm hoping it's a bug, but it feels intentional given the recent rebalancing of businesses and Cayo nerfs earlier this year.
Your exit off the railing and the tip about swimming underwater west are a huge time saver. But I was having trouble with inconsistently settinig off the alarm -- guards were finding a dead guard somewhere long after I had shot them with suppressor. Jay Money has an entry method after the water tunnel that's even quicker than yours, with no timing of the patrols necessary. He turns right (opposite of your first left turn), and climbs up a stair railing on the coast, then climbs onto a wooden pergola/rooftop. Runs across a roof, a beam, hops a stone railing, and that puts him facing the guard that you pop from behind at the bottom of the office tower. Combined, your two methods make this mission even easier!
It doesn't matter what path I choose, I always end up getting caught by a guard and having to shoot my way out. I've dome this heist solo maybe about 6 times now and each and every single time I get caught by some miraculous reason.
Some folks (like me) have a jinxed, or glitched game to where I can follow exactly what someone else did, and still get different results than they did. I did the Longfin approach and tried to get the disguise clothing at the airport, but even that was impossible, which makes no sense. Why gimmie a disguise if I can't get to it and make everything 100 times easier. I need to find a mission that involves zero stealth and I'll beat it every time.
Same here, I even made it to go inside the house , but got caught just before entering...also hate the fact after you die first time, the guards are already aware of you
I take always after entering the compound the left stairs and not the right and sprint directly to the office. Never get caught, have only to kill the bike guard and did the heist about 25 times in the last 8 days with 2 panthers and the rest pink diamonds. 🥳
@@manttahray3239 skill? Don't think so. In my case it's poor eyesight towards the small details.. For instance, the direction of the cones.. I really can't seem to tell the difference if a guard is looking in my direction or not, unless he's very close by. If the key is not being seen from a distance, then I'll probably get spotted every time.Oh yeah. I sprinted to the office before, but they were alerted. Still, I cleaned out the office, solved the elevator puzzle, and even managed to get the first primary target, because I had done a bunch of setups and had the tools. The problem after that is shooting and running, trying to get to the gate, where they let me have it... RS should have included a fool-proof, alternative route where after leaving the drainage tunnel you don't have to encounter anyone, and that would at least reward us 'slower' players so we're not completely being robbed of the entire experience of being successful, like all the rest. Skill? I've grinded 300 mil and own everything there is to own in GTA Online. Gimmie a weapon and a vehicle and full health, and I'm good. I'll probably try this tiresome little stealth adventure about five more times, and then erase it from my memory, either way.
i just got my kosatka not that long ago and i was really struggling trying to beat cayo but your videos helped me beat it 4 times already! thanks man i appreciate it im so glad i can make good money now
Hey man listen I wanted to say thank you for real I was nervous going into the cayo perico heist but your guide gave me the confidence and the tools to get it done. So thank you! Your awesome 😎.
That's great to hear, my main goal was to put together a guide that made the heist look approachable and not as intimidating as it first appears. Appreciate the comment!
It's almost exactly how I do it, take a slightly different route in the compound but I do hit the airport first and then straight to the compound using the longfin
I’m on Xbox series s and my long fin spawns back further into the ocean rather than staying where I parked it after hitting the airport. Does this happen to you?
100% perfect guide. Second run threw I was able to manage not getting seen or shot. I only got 1.394 million on hard though. Dr Dre missions are easier and quicker tbh. Maybe it’s cause I got the red jewel which isn’t worth as much idk 🤷♂️
I take the camera and guard out at 4:47 perfect every time and still the alarm triggers. Been slamming my head against the wall with this all day. and every time I fail here. I feel like going with another entry.
Every so often it gives me a hard time as well, it can be a bit weird. All I can suggest is waiting until the camera rotates in the opposite direction of the guard before taking him out. Alternatively, if you're quick, you can shoot the camera out before the guard, but it has to be done before his cone of vision is on that part of the courtyard.
omg this was so useful dude i escaped so easy thing is the bodies keep on getting found😂 but its alright the escape is amazing works even if youre caught
I usually pull off three of these a day with my running buddies in GTA online. It’s better to pull these off with people you know as opposed to doing a heist with random people who are bound to mess up.
There is a route you can take once you come out the drainage tunnel that takes you straight to the house, you will only have to take out three guards total once there.
You have to press start on the first finale screen before it eventually brings you back to a similar menu where you can select your approach vehicle and entry/exit points.
I love how there are so many different ways to complete the heist but only one of them reigns supreme for solo players. To be fair this one is good but it is not even close to the best.
Oh and my approach is this: I go in with the Kosatka. But to the North Dock. I kill one guard, then steal a boat and go to the places that have 2 stacks of coke (that is more often than not the Airfield, which is about a 25 second "drive" away with the boat from the North Dock). Then I go to the Drainage tunnel, take the main take, get out, kill the guard at the bike, take the bike and jump off the cliff at the southern most point of the island (almost like you do in your video, I swerve around the chopper guard a little more, to reduce the risk of detection). This whole run takes usually 12 to 13 minutes, depending if it's a code I have to put in or a plasma cutter that I have to use for the main take (the code is usually much quicker). So I get the coke, I get the main take and I make the elite too.
Glad to see people are still motivated to do it after the nerf. Maybe for some people cayo can be fun again. Unfortunately I beat it to death playing b2b all last winter and the payout would have to be 5m+ for me to even consider running it again.
I can definitely relate there, I always burn myself out on my preferred grind methods. Struggling to get back into MC sales again for that reason, the invite only sales are nice but those damn Post Ops still give me nightmares lol.
Tylarious is the god of Cayo and this is the way I go. The gate keys spawn at the two guards at the pool melee them with the machine pistol the other spawn is the guard that walks up and down the corridor near the main office if not them it’s the personal guards. Secondary loot first with the long fin and get your primary and leave. Prior to the nerf I made 200 million dollars from this method. For the long fin prep mission I would recommend the phantom wedge. Mk2 for all other preps and if you get hq mission use the sparrow. 45-48 minutes to set up 10-12 minutes to complete elite challenge every time just like printing money.
You are right, for the preps use oppressor but don't forget to return your oppressor to reload the oppressor's homing missiles. So overall sparrow is the best option. The sparrow only takes me 6 to 12 mins for all the preps. You just need to master your helicopter flying skills bro!!!😄
@@Ariffin958 I only use the oppressor for effectiveness I don’t get detected on the cutting torch mission do I only need the weapons for the plasma cutter mission. But you can use a phantom wedge for that mission and drive straight through them in all of the locations.
thanks for this. I last tried this heist when it first came out so it's been a while. First time I'm trying this solo. Never thought to get the secondary loot first but it seems obvious now lol
Just done my first heist! Only problem is that I'm impatient...how long does it take to re do it? I've waited over 10 mins...done a mission and now I'm still waiting...even the sub doesn't let me ..
I usually do 3-4 cayo perico heist a day before the nerf now i can still do it 3-4 times a day all u need is a second character so once u finish the Cayo perico heist on one character move on to the second character and do that heist once u finish both the heist either wait 3 hrs and do the same thing or do the vip missions or the pay phone hits or even the terrorbyte missions those will earn u extra cash and there is always the nightclub business which gives 3x payout on income so that’s a nice bonus
Yeah unfortunately you have to do it every time, there's a fast route you can take though, if you search "Gather Intel" on my channel you'll find my video that covers it.
I highly recommend doing the kasotka entrance instead and not go to the airstrip, instead picking up the secondary targets at the main docks, it will save you a lot of time both during the heist, the setup and the scouting.
@@NotaFederalAgent823 kosatka prep is rlly easy, just drive ur sub over the objective, shoot the helis and boats with the periscope missiles, then dive down to the submarine where the sonar jammer is and kill everyone with a shotgun before returning to the kosatka
I think you should, I don't know if it is necessary, but in one of my runs when I was scouting the island I saw some loot that I didn't take pictures of, and when I came back to the same places the loot was different
they will be there regardless, but scoping allows you to determine beforehand which locations have best loot, allowing you to save time while making the most profit... i always scope the airfield.. as long as there is coke, i go straight to the tower... if airfield doesnt have coke, i scope the north dock, and if coke is there i would loot north dock instead during the heist.... if there is no coke in either locations then there will aways be enough weed instead... during the heist i'll know to approach whichever location has the better loot before heading to the compound
Such a great video...to the point..no frills just straight up 😎. You earned my sub and share of the video. Keep doing things the way you do them my man 😀
Takes a few runs to learn the best place to jump off, but once you get it you'll almost always drop right in front of the 3 mines. In some of my early attempts I think I went through about 10 rebreathers because of getting lost lol.
Good guide, but you should be able to get a primary target from the basement without shooting any guards. Just gotta learn the guards moves and it is hilarious how poor eyesight they have. The turcose shirt guard at the stairs close to the house entry point, you can sneak past him without him noticing you, even if he is faced your way 😁
Please make another video like this for hard mode. Thanks for this godly video that saved me from multiple attempts!!! Really helped me a lot for all the finales except for the hard mode!!!😀
Glad to hear it was helpful mate. Hard mode doesn't change the heist too much, main thing is there are a few more guards, and they have a slightly larger cone of vision. Oh, and one extra fingerprint hack for each of the methods. Thanks for the feedback though, I'll definitely consider featuring it in a future guide!
You deleted the video with the secondary targets. The thing with those targets and lower yield main takes after the Nerf is: The Secondaries are changing in value. For example: With the Bearer bonds the Coke is 12k more valuable per stack than before (2.0 stacks). That is not much, but it puts it almost on par with a full duffle bag of Gold (1.6 stacks) that would only be a few thousand dollars more than the coke. Doesn't matter of course, because you can not take Gold in a solo run, but it is interesting to know, because these increases in values are meant to encourage groups to go out on the island for the raid - that's especially true if there isn't enough gold for everyone in a group - they can take coke instead. Since weed only takes up 33% of the bag, it almost is as valuable as coke (50%) in summary. It is the same principle with the coke and the Gold - just a little bit less worth in value. Now the paintings. This was and still is a matter of opinion and personal taste if you want to do that, because if you have enough coke in one place, you can easily get the main take afterwards and still make the elite challenge (which nets you 50k more). In a solo run this would be advisable if you can make the elite challenge. If not and if you have two paintings in Rubio's office to take: Do that. It nets you a little less than the coke + elite challenge, but this would be the only reason for me to take the paintings over the coke: Only when I can't make the elite challenge trying to get the coke, or if there isn't enough coke on the island and have 2 paintings to take instead. It is excessively more likely that you will find enough coke on the island and make the elite, even if you have to go to 2 different places to get it (it would be close to the 15 minute mark, but even under such bad conditions: If you have enough coke, you probably can get it and make the elite). So, yeah, the decision between "coke or paintings?" depends on the elite challenge and if you can make it.
With the cayo perico nerf, I believe Rockstar changed the value of certain secondary loot. For an example, I did a heist today, and I took a painting which was worth 235.000 $ (more than a stack of coke) So I think a new video about secondary loot has to be made (sry for my bad english :/)
@@varness2 Yeah I have seen that too just yesterday. Also, the secondaries seem to change in accordance to the value the main take has. And: No worries - English is my 2nd language too :)
I had a ruby necklace today, grabbed that and a painting and some gold using the safe door roll glitch into the basement on ps4 with conspirator. Fast run 8:01 If I didn't study the roll glitch I'd be rocking the longfin too looking for cocaine. Very nice guide. (y)
@@LolSho0orTs Welp supposedly it has been patched, check a feller by the name of Lokknath on YT here. he just dropped a vid about it being patched 4 hours ago I'm watching it right now.
Just go into the compound first through the entry tunnel and fill up your bag at the main dock on the way out. Easy Elite challenge 100k hardmode bonus every single time.
Yes to both, but if you're playing with other people you'd be better off getting gold from inside the compound as your secondary targets (if it's available ofc)
With the new dlc and the cayo perico nerf, I believe Rockstar changed the value of certain secondary loot. For an example, I did a heist today, and I took a painting which was worth 235.000 $ (more than a stack of coke) So I think a new video about secondary loot has to be made (sry for my bad english :/)
Do you have to do gathering intel everytime or is that first time on madrazos files only I havent started the heist yet every im jus prepping it for the weekend
But if you need both the guard clothing and the supply truck then you need to scope these 2 again together with your primary target and secondary targets. The guard clothing will come in handy for dodging all cameras and few other guards.
Personaly i go through submarine entrance and scam through walls at south and west storage since safe have a kilbox now. First west storage, then south, basement with gate keys comes last. Usualy end up in less than 10 minutes when i didn't fucked up clean run by alerting the guards by missing shots or killing someone relativley close to heavy gunner. Honestly it's kinda funny. You can litteraly run cirles behind them and jumping. But he can hear meat bag falling flat at a quite distance.
Cheers frantic! It was harder when it first released, took a while for people to figure out some good strategies but it's a decent earner now, even with the annoying cooldown.
The mines don't trigger swimming, and tbh my method is always elite challenge completed but I do a different run... None the less great guide chap I hope many less advanced players appreciate it! 👍
Yes if you are desperate for cash but now with the 2 and a half hour wait time for doing it solo it's not as good but still worth doing every now and again
Id say definitely yes. It isn't difficult to learn with a few guides, and the cooldown really just means you can't do it back to back. 1.5 mil every few hours is still very good imo.
UPDATED CAYO GUIDE (2023)

I just want to add an even easier escape. Come out the main gate, then go left and follow the wall back to the ocean. Jump in, dive down deep and just swim. You’ll escape before you run out of breath and won’t be seen by anyone and you won’t have to kill another guard.
I've heard that a few times now but I keep forgetting to check it out. Cheers.

Yeah the longfin is great for collecting the loot early, so easy to move around.
Thanks! Took me a few Quick Restarts but I was able to do it solo and it was my first time ever doing it. 👍
Hell yeah congrats, it gets easier every time as well.
Thank you! It helped a lot.
thanks red i needed this! 👍
Just done my first heist! Only problem is that I'm impatient...how long does it take to re do it? I've waited over 10 mins...done a mission and now I'm still waiting...even the sub doesn't let me ..
2.5 hours thx R* for the fuken nerve :(
I usually do 3-4 cayo perico heist a day before the nerf now i can still do it 3-4 times a day all u need is a second character so once u finish the Cayo perico heist on one character move on to the second character and do that heist once u finish both the heist either wait 3 hrs and do the same thing or do the vip missions or the pay phone hits or even the terrorbyte missions those will earn u extra cash and there is always the nightclub business which gives 3x payout on income so that’s a nice bonus
You can share income on different characters ?
@@Vihloah yep
make sure to move the forklift before going inside the lower storage or you will be trapped inside like a goober
Good video man keep it up
Thanks a lot Mohamad, happy to see you're still enjoying the content.
Thank you that helped me a lot
Bro sounds like he about to drop a tf2 update 💀
Love your tutorials, this one helped me a lot!
But do I need to scope the Island every time I’m doin the heist??
Yes
Yeah unfortunately you have to do it every time, there's a fast route you can take though, if you search "Gather Intel" on my channel you'll find my video that covers it.
incredibly useful
GG
I really appreciate you taking the time to do this
Most welcome. I wish I could have got it done sooner but I'm happy to see it's helping a few people.
this is so good
Thanks!!
Earned a sub
This worked perfect
Beautiful guide
Thanks before I used to just use kosatka but realized this is better because I can get the things in the hangar at the airport easier
How is the new job doing
This worked so well! Thank you man. We getting this Shhhmmmooonneeyyy, you Dig. 💸💰💵💷
Hell yeah dude happy to help
Rip to the poor soul who probably landed on a mine with that bike jump💀
Amazing👏👏👏
Solid guide!
I highly recommend doing the kasotka entrance instead and not go to the airstrip, instead picking up the secondary targets at the main docks, it will save you a lot of time both during the heist, the setup and the scouting.
I mean it still works as long as you complete it lol
Thw kasatka prep mission is absolutely aids so I try to avoid it
@@NotaFederalAgent823 kosatka prep is rlly easy, just drive ur sub over the objective, shoot the helis and boats with the periscope missiles, then dive down to the submarine where the sonar jammer is and kill everyone with a shotgun before returning to the kosatka
Tnx you so much my friend
Man your a sexy God I’ve just managed to pass first time using your way of doing it thanks mate I owe you big time
Lmao no worries man congrats on the run
liked and subscribed 😀
Do you have to scope out the locations for the secondary loot? (Weed etc) Or can you just start up the heist and find them that way?
I think you should, I don't know if it is necessary, but in one of my runs when I was scouting the island I saw some loot that I didn't take pictures of, and when I came back to the same places the loot was different
you can find them on the way except you be wasting time if you wanna do the elite challenge.
they will be there regardless, but scoping allows you to determine beforehand which locations have best loot, allowing you to save time while making the most profit... i always scope the airfield.. as long as there is coke, i go straight to the tower... if airfield doesnt have coke, i scope the north dock, and if coke is there i would loot north dock instead during the heist.... if there is no coke in either locations then there will aways be enough weed instead... during the heist i'll know to approach whichever location has the better loot before heading to the compound
Cheers everyone appreciate the replies!
Such a great video...to the point..no frills just straight up 😎. You earned my sub and share of the video. Keep doing things the way you do them my man 😀
Thank you! Appreciate it.
Is it only me that the equipment Dosent the plazma cutters and all the other stuff?
I hate leaving thru the front entrence its impossible to get out. That gaurd sees me everytime and i have to quit and try again
Just wait for him to walk in the other direction and you're good.
I always have an issue leaving but, you took your time so, I think I have it now. I just have to pay attention to the map, when on the bike.
Takes a few runs to learn the best place to jump off, but once you get it you'll almost always drop right in front of the 3 mines. In some of my early attempts I think I went through about 10 rebreathers because of getting lost lol.
Good guide, but you should be able to get a primary target from the basement without shooting any guards. Just gotta learn the guards moves and it is hilarious how poor eyesight they have. The turcose shirt guard at the stairs close to the house entry point, you can sneak past him without him noticing you, even if he is faced your way 😁
Haha I actually just released an updated guide covering exactly that, funny timing that I just saw this now.
Even without using the long fin this escape method is the new meta for me quickest method out
Such a massive time saver, makes the ending so easy.
i think that this tutorial should consider multiple target locations for secondary loots. because not all the time the target loot is in the airfield.
Thanks bro
Please make another video like this for hard mode. Thanks for this godly video that saved me from multiple attempts!!! Really helped me a lot for all the finales except for the hard mode!!!😀
Glad to hear it was helpful mate. Hard mode doesn't change the heist too much, main thing is there are a few more guards, and they have a slightly larger cone of vision. Oh, and one extra fingerprint hack for each of the methods. Thanks for the feedback though, I'll definitely consider featuring it in a future guide!
You deleted the video with the secondary targets. The thing with those targets and lower yield main takes after the Nerf is: The Secondaries are changing in value. For example: With the Bearer bonds the Coke is 12k more valuable per stack than before (2.0 stacks). That is not much, but it puts it almost on par with a full duffle bag of Gold (1.6 stacks) that would only be a few thousand dollars more than the coke. Doesn't matter of course, because you can not take Gold in a solo run, but it is interesting to know, because these increases in values are meant to encourage groups to go out on the island for the raid - that's especially true if there isn't enough gold for everyone in a group - they can take coke instead.
Since weed only takes up 33% of the bag, it almost is as valuable as coke (50%) in summary. It is the same principle with the coke and the Gold - just a little bit less worth in value.
Now the paintings. This was and still is a matter of opinion and personal taste if you want to do that, because if you have enough coke in one place, you can easily get the main take afterwards and still make the elite challenge (which nets you 50k more). In a solo run this would be advisable if you can make the elite challenge. If not and if you have two paintings in Rubio's office to take: Do that. It nets you a little less than the coke + elite challenge, but this would be the only reason for me to take the paintings over the coke: Only when I can't make the elite challenge trying to get the coke, or if there isn't enough coke on the island and have 2 paintings to take instead. It is excessively more likely that you will find enough coke on the island and make the elite, even if you have to go to 2 different places to get it (it would be close to the 15 minute mark, but even under such bad conditions: If you have enough coke, you probably can get it and make the elite).
So, yeah, the decision between "coke or paintings?" depends on the elite challenge and if you can make it.
With the cayo perico nerf, I believe Rockstar changed the value of certain secondary loot.
For an example, I did a heist today, and I took a painting which was worth 235.000 $ (more than a stack of coke)
So I think a new video about secondary loot has to be made
(sry for my bad english :/)
@@varness2 Yeah I have seen that too just yesterday. Also, the secondaries seem to change in accordance to the value the main take has. And: No worries - English is my 2nd language too :)
bruh demolition is optional? I’ve always done it and never realized i never used it while doing the heist 😭😭😭😭
Legit almost didnt include that bit of dialogue because of the video getting a bit long lol, glad I did now.
Any tips on scoping it out I always get caught and it takes more time than the actual heist
I've got some videos coming that cover all of that. I'll try to get them out as soon as possible, lots to cover atm.
I love that exit strat
Ngl that outtro goes hard😅
Haha right? Not bad for a royalty free track on youtube
I had a ruby necklace today, grabbed that and a painting and some gold using the safe door roll glitch into the basement on ps4 with conspirator. Fast run 8:01 If I didn't study the roll glitch I'd be rocking the longfin too looking for cocaine. Very nice guide. (y)
how to do that glitch ?
@@LolSho0orTs Welp supposedly it has been patched, check a feller by the name of Lokknath on YT here. he just dropped a vid about it being patched 4 hours ago I'm watching it right now.
*EDIT Glitch just worked for me on PS4. Wow had a ruby necklace and made a 7min 38 sec run. The information is out there friends.
Awesome video thanks will use this next time I go do Cayo
Just go into the compound first through the entry tunnel and fill up your bag at the main dock on the way out. Easy Elite challenge 100k hardmode bonus every single time.
Nah takes too long doing plus rubios searching for you as well
Can you do this in a solo session? I have to do these for the internet
Yep, all of cayo can be done in solo/invite only lobbies.
@@RedNitrate thanks homie. I knew it worked in invite only but I had to know if it worked in solo before I bought it
When you set the alarms off when a guard sees you, how do you make the alarms stop so helicopters will stop attacking you
Easiest way at the point is to let yourself be killed and hit restart on the mission summary screen (not continue)
Does this work with duos? Also does it work on hard mode ? As far as the edict over the bones and boat…etc
Yes to both, but if you're playing with other people you'd be better off getting gold from inside the compound as your secondary targets (if it's available ofc)
With the new dlc and the cayo perico nerf, I believe Rockstar changed the value of certain secondary loot.
For an example, I did a heist today, and I took a painting which was worth 235.000 $ (more than a stack of coke)
So I think a new video about secondary loot has to be made
(sry for my bad english :/)
1 coke and 2 weed is worth more, but you have to hit three loot spots, to get a full loot bag.
2x coke is ideal imo
Is this after the latest update? I have yet to complete the heist and having trouble with getting detected.
This was from before the update, but I've got a new guide (pinned in the comment section)
For the approach vehicles, do you have to collect all 6 vehicles to prepare the heist or just collect one and move on?
Just one.
@@RedNitrate omg ty, I did that as you said.
Do you have to do gathering intel everytime or is that first time on madrazos files only
I havent started the heist yet every im jus prepping it for the weekend
Yes, every time. However it's easier on follow up heists, you only have to visit the communications tower and scope the main compound.
But if you need both the guard clothing and the supply truck then you need to scope these 2 again together with your primary target and secondary targets. The guard clothing will come in handy for dodging all cameras and few other guards.
Personaly i go through submarine entrance and scam through walls at south and west storage since safe have a kilbox now. First west storage, then south, basement with gate keys comes last. Usualy end up in less than 10 minutes when i didn't fucked up clean run by alerting the guards by missing shots or killing someone relativley close to heavy gunner. Honestly it's kinda funny. You can litteraly run cirles behind them and jumping. But he can hear meat bag falling flat at a quite distance.
it’s my first time doing cayo perico setups and heist and i don’t have the torch cutter for the setups is this normal?
Plasma cutter or cutting torch?
do i have to keep doing the setups?
Great guide red, looks easier than i remember!
Cheers frantic! It was harder when it first released, took a while for people to figure out some good strategies but it's a decent earner now, even with the annoying cooldown.
Do you mind helping me with the hiest I can't do it
The mines don't trigger swimming, and tbh my method is always elite challenge completed but I do a different run... None the less great guide chap I hope many less advanced players appreciate it! 👍
To be honest I've never been brave enough to check if the mines activate when swimming lol, appreciate the info.
Is this worth it I’ve never done the cayo grind?
Yes if you are desperate for cash but now with the 2 and a half hour wait time for doing it solo it's not as good but still worth doing every now and again
Yup it's still worth doing. Just do other stuff to make money during cooldown. You can now sell product in invite only lobby for instance.
Id say definitely yes. It isn't difficult to learn with a few guides, and the cooldown really just means you can't do it back to back. 1.5 mil every few hours is still very good imo.
Does it despawn the boat you had at the drainage pipe?
I've been getting a few comments about that recently, I fear there may be a new bug in the works.
