Prepare for the robbery
You need to complete 2 setup tasks to get started, including:
- Spotting in the Paleto Score Heist Setup quest.
- Attack the nearby military convoy in the Grand Senora desert during the Military Hardware mission.
Heist Setup
Michael, Trevor and Lester will track the bank's location and police response time. This task is quite easy. You just have to drive around a bit to find the Paleto bank.
Military Hardware
Players need to attack the military convoy moving through the Grand Senora desert and steal 2 tanks containing weapons. Ideally, you should stop the convoy with a sticky bomb trap, attack and take over the truck carrying that crate and speed away. This mission will be completed when you bring it to the lab. Towtruck cannot tow this truck. Cargobob can't lift it either.
The heist will be ready when you complete both of the above missions. There are two challenges that you must complete to receive a gold medal:
- Head Hunter - Hit 5 enemies in the head.
- Sticky Strategy - Stop the army convoy with a sticky bomb trap.
To make sure the sticky bomb trap works, you can park your vehicle right behind the trap so that the enemy convoy has to stop. This move will increase the time for you to activate the bomb.
Step-by-step guide to completing the Paleto Score heist in GTA 5
Direct attack is the only way to carry out this robbery. The team will drive to Paleto Bay, drop Franklin off, and then head to the bank gate. Trevor then took a photo, triggering the alarm. Next, Trevor and Michael will control the crowd while the hired gunman opens the safe with a soldering iron. In the end, they will take the money, the police will come and the robbery will turn into hostage taking.
Michael, Trevor and Gunman will go out fully armed, including armor, minigun to fight the police. The player needs to take down everyone, including the helicopter, and proceed to the houses in the back. NOOSE now spawns and your teammates must battle their way into a construction field. At this point, if you hire an inexperienced shooter, that character will be hit by a police car. If you choose a skilled shooter, nothing will happen.
The army will then come with a few Rhinos and lots of soldiers. Players will lose about 20USD in this fight. Franklin arrives and saves Trevor & Michael with a Dozer, then takes them to the airport near the Cluckin'Bell factory after the chase. The player needs to block the enemy until the ship arrives. The mission ends after everyone jumps on it.
How to get maximum revenue in GTA 5
You can just hire a cheap gunner and have that person get killed for the sake of reducing the cost of casualties rather than using Packie, Chef or Gus. In which, Daryl Johns is the cheapest at 9%. Therefore, you should sacrifice Norm Richards (10.5%) to save Daryl and exchange for Big Score.
Maximum total revenue: 8,016,020USD.
The split is as follows: FIB and Lester have 78%, the remaining 1.7 million is for the team. After that, Lester will take 12% of the stake, Daryl or Norm will have 9 or 10.5%, depending on who you choose. Each main character will receive about 450,000 USD if successfully completed the task.
