jewerly store without disabling cameras
sometimes i get the jewelry store with the opt objective to do it on stealth without disabling the cameras, how you guys do it? i tried it but there are always 3 cameras on the front, so i cannot destroy them all due to the strikes, haven't tried it on normal difficulty, only on extreme

Kinda hard to pull in stealth, altought I don't remmeber if you need to do the heist in stealth or not ( could be just "do not disable camera" and so that means you can go loud at any point)

To do it in stealth, I would check where the cameras are located in main room/how many there are and the angle they cover. If you are fast enough you can destroy two cameras for a single strike, so that would allow to destroy up to 4 cameras, without alarm. Then remain the threat of guards. I would start from the back and try to catch guards in the back rooms and backyard out of camera coverage. If you manage to pull it there should be 2 or 3 guards left in main room depending on the preset.

Then I would either draw guards toward back rooms with bricks and subdue them there if it's possible outide of camera range, or, if daytime and/or camera placement allow it, I would try to enter lobby and push down the guards quickly then destroy cameras before they call backup. Don't forget to push the red button to close the windows shutters, so you don't get attention from outside. Also check if there is no cop patroling the entrance of the building, I've got a few presets where that is a thing.

That really depends on camera number/placement. If it's too complicated, I would probably just abandon the secondary objective.

i got a camera jammer while leveling up, think i can pull it off if i use it, didn't know this game has one, i tried doing the "kill in quick succession the guards" to prevent many strikes raising it, but i get the strike right away, think its because im on extreme that there is no delay in the strikes getting added.

You can kill two guards quickly and get one strike. How the game decides seems to be RNG.

right in the follow up seems to works for me but the time window is reallly short indeed.
EDIT : just tried it agaiin and you're right, it seems to not work anymore at all in extreme difficulty

Also, I just thought of something I never tried : disabling camera with jammmer, then destroying it. I wonder if it still gives a strike or if there is something to exploit with that

EDIT : O M G.... It works. for real it works. Destroying jammed camera do not gives strikes

the only way i could see work is hope for the rng with minimum of camera in the main room and lure all the guard to the back and hope the camera cant see them then use the 2 strike you have for camera in the main room

well, as I just tested in extreme, you can disable camera with jammer then destroy them and you won't take a strike for it... Although they will probably still arise guards alert gauge if spoted like other destroyed cameras, This is quite a game changer

Somehow I think this wasn't intended.

"Do job in stealth without disabling cameras" is a BS 3rd objective anyways. Had cameras once the jammer wore off get upset at lockpicked open cabinets and sounding the alarm for "Broken case" so this tactic seems fair in exchange.

I've done this one. You can "knock out" the camera with a melee attack, you just can't use the security room computer to "disable" the cameras. After getting the guards out of the main room you just need to knock out the one camera that can see the lobby area.
