Best heist for reputation levels?

[Seal]

I'm about level 35 but want to progress quicker for more damage on the bronco, unlock m308 and the gl40... what is the best heist for levelling up the fastest?

[Nikolai]

By getting good at the game and playing more often.

[B Dawg]

All the heists.

Challenges are your best friend when trying to level up the honest method. They give good bonus money (exp) and some even set goals to train you into a better player.

Correct answer to your question is Overdrill. Overdrill is (not so) secret method of robbing First Word Bank. Check instruction on player guides.

While Overdrill might be one of the best methods for making money, most players will highly reccommend against it.

Overdrill does not teach you the skills you need to tackle Overkill and Overkill 145+. Those difficulties are nowhere near as easy as they are in Payday 2.

Also, you don't need the Branco, M308, and GL40 to be good at the game. It's a good loadout, but not the only one. The reinbeck for example is gained early in the support tree and easily the strongest weapon in the game. :)

Yeah but overdrill doesn't teach you anything of how to play the game and instead makes you into a burden for overkill and 145+ players because of how inexperienced you are. Having level doesn't make you good. That's why the first two responses where play more and play all the heists, and why I personally suggested doing challenges. I know players that will straight up kick you if you join their 145+ lobby and only have overdrills to your name.

Yep- what you said is wise.
The only problem is that you answer the question we both would like to hear instead of the one that was asked.

The best method to farm reputation is Diamond Heist on Overkill difficulty. But you will need to learn how to stealth it first.

I wouldn't call it the best method as just playing heists and completing challenges will teach you more and it's quite a fast way to level up. But yes, it's better than doing overdrill on easy over and over or the solo stuff that requires you to restart a heist.

These are the fastest methods to level up:

Diamond Heist OVK - speedrun (2:20 on avg) + grabbing 4 sapphires - on average ~3500k per 1:55 (rng involved)
Overdrill OVK - 75M per 42 minutes / 1785k per minute
Ovedrill normal - 73.2M per 42 minutes / 1740k per minute
Overdrill easy - 71.85M per 42 minutes / 1710k per minute
Undercover OVK - triggering the saw and restart - on average ~1500k per 1:05 (rng involved)
FWB OVK - setting up the drill and restarting - 833k per 50s

But you should be aware that the Diamond Heist run assumes you can set up the boxes in stealth all the time and for overdrill you need a full team, but new players aren't as fast as what I assumed here. The undercover and FWB stuff can be done solo and are pretty much guaranteed.

Don't get spotted. That's all. The best way to learn this is to play it.

[Pawnstar]

1) Start an OVK or OVK145+ FWB
2) Walk into the bank
3) Restart Mission

OR

1) Start OVK Diamond Heist with GL40
2) Stelf it (restart if code fails)
3) Know the three escape spawn zones
4) GL40 if a Shield is blocking the staircase
