GTA 5 Casino heist guide

A guide who has done this heist like a hundred times and heres what i learned
(some info may be wrong) (also alot of spelling errors)

Introduction

Hello! Welcome to my guide im a player who has played this game alot
this guide is for people who are having a rough time with the heist
and yeah....lets get started!

Location of arcade

OK! so you wanna get started so you gotta find a location to buy your arcade...but there are so many options where to start?!
Dont worry Truelordpower will guide you through
Anyways




Location


alright so what you wanna do is NOT buy a arcade in sandy shores and paleto bay. Yes there cheap but all the setups will mainly take place in los santos i personally prefer to buy one somewhere in town
I'd say buy the one in la mesa. I know its pricey but Damn is it worth the buck.
So now we have a arcade so lets discuss the entry points and exit points

Entry and Exit points

Of course if you want to rob a casino you need a plan...and entry and exit
Cuz come on...how else do you wanna get in and get the good stuff
(btw the heist setup fee is 25k)

there are alot of ways to enter and exit
But it all comes down to your approach
There 3 ways to hit it
-Silent and sneaky
-Big con
-Aggresive
you dont need to get ALL of the entry points and exits but they are handy to have

to unlock these areas you need to be in the scope casino mission activated from your casino




-main door
found at the front side of the casino
-staff door
found at the back side of the casino
-waste disposal
found at the left side of the casino
-Security door
its just by the race track which is at the back side of the casino and at the right side of the track
-Sewers
around the casino is a bridge which is connected to the sewer system
go down and into the open hole and shoot a pic of a barred up hole
-the roof terrace entrances
once inside the casino take the elevator up to the roof terrace
theres a enterance by the left side with a staircase and a door
and by the right side of the terrace with a keypad door
by the backside and by the left side behind the terrace
-the helipads
take the elevator in the casino to the roof
take the pics of the doors by the left and right side of the helipad
ok so thats the entrance points now lets talk about the P.O.I

P.O.I's

Sorry i got a bit lazy.........so here are all the P.O.I's

anyways lets talk about what you can get from the casino to steal

Things you can get to steal from the casino

So there are 4 things that you can steal from the casino
-cash
-artwork
-Gold
-diamonds
Cash being worst and diamonds being best

The chances of getting these are random
cash being the most common
and gold being most rare
althought diamonds are only available when there are special events
alright we got that over with lets talk about the approaches and crew

Approaches and crew

Alright so you wanna hit the casino dont you?.Of course you do! theres not only 1 way to go there are 3
as mentioned those are
The big con
Silent and sneaky
Aggresive

The big con is all about dressing up as los santos services
bug exterminators
chip delivery guys (gruppe sechs)
Maintence
And a actaul celeb
the maintence being the hardest and gruppe sechs being easiest (ill explain later)

Silent and sneaky as the name implys its all about being undetected and using suppressed guns
and is also the hardest of the bunch

Aggresive (aka the most fun and easy)
Guns blazing. Fast action with lots of murder!

lets start with silent and sneaky
the best way to enter is the staff door
its the quickest and most convienent
Around the staff area are various power boxes which are connected to the metal detectors in the entrances
Along side cameras
Do not spend to much time near them they have a 5 second detection time (in normal mode)
and a 3 second detection time (in hard mode)
You might be thinking
"how does one destroy/avoids the cameras"
welp theres a solution
you need a stun gun which you get by completing the gun setup (ill go in detail in a minute) you shoot the cameras with the stun gun to turn them off (its about 7-10 seconds but dont take any chances) or just destroy them be aware this isnt the best way to avoid them as if you destroy 2 the alarm will be triggered
or since this is silent and sneaky you can do a emp setup that shuts off all power from the casino and you can slip by the cameras
so if you do this do staff door entrance and exit

Next up the big con
As i said you use costumes to slip by the guards
the best one you can do is the gruppe sechs one
i kid you not you litteraly go straight to the vault
and this is the only one you should do and ignore the other approaches
you can also get exit constumes which ill explain later
so if you do the gruppe sechs do staff door exit

and last but not least
Aggresive
You use weapons to kill all the gaurds and push twoards the vault with force
you can also use thermal charges to melt the keypad locks
theres a setup in which you use a boring machine to drill into the sewer system and right up to the vault
most effective most fun of all so if you do the boring machine mission go sewer entrance and staff door exit

so now lets talk crew
there are 3 people you need to choose for the heist
-a gunman
-driver
-hacker
a gunman will provide you guns (duh)
driver will provide getaway cars
and hacker will decide how long you will stay in the vault
the skill ranges from
Poor
Good
Expert
Expert being the best poor being the worst
but sometimes poor is best

the gunman choices go from
-karl abolaji (poor) 5% cut
-gus mota (expert) 9% cut
-charlie feed (good) 7% cut (only unlockable if you have hangar)
-chester mcroy (Expert) 10% cut (unlockable only if you have a bunker or area war workshop)
-patrick Mcreary (expert) 8% cut (theres a special mission where you gotta rescue him from a police van and transport him to his hideout he can be randomly found in the police van around the entire map a blue dot will appear and thats him)

Now we have the drivers

-karim denz (poor) 5% cut
-taliana martinez (good) 7% cut
-Eddie toh (expert) 9% cut
-Zach nelson (good) 6% cut (only available if you have a mc club but he only gives bikes in my opinon hes not worth it)
-chester mcroy (again same as before expert and 10% cut and he cannot be chosen if hes your gunman and vice versa)

and last but not least are hackers
they provide how long you stay in the vault times vary if you got detected and undetected
and we have

-Rickie Lukens (poor) 3% cut (note:DO NOT USE HIM he never gives you enough time to rob the vault
undected time:2 minutes 26 secs
detected time:1 minute 42 seconds (pathetic)

-christian felts (good) 7% cut
Undetected time:2 minutes 5 seconds
Detected time:2 minutes and 59 seconds (or a full 3 minutes)

-Yohan blair (Good) 5% cut (unlockable only if you have a nightclub)
Undetected time:2 minutes 52 seconds
Detected time:2 minutes 1 second

-Paige harris (one of the best) (expert) (9% cut but worth it) (unlockable only if you have a terrobyte which you need a nightclub)
detected time:2 minutes 23 seconds
Undetected time:3 minutes 25 seconds


-Avi schwartzman (expert) 10% Cut (only available if you destroy 50 signal jammers loctated around the map
Detected time:2 minutes 26 seconds
Undetected time:3 minutes 30 seconds
(again very worth it)
alright so thats all of them

the layout i prefer to do with these guys is
Gunman:Karl abolaji
Driver:karim denz
Hacker:paige or avi

With the gunman choose whatever gun you wanna
With the driver always choose the sentials classics
With the hacker you cant choose just do it normally
Also choose the high buyer always to maximize the cut
OK! we got the crew and the approaches
So lets talk setups!

Setups and other stuff

There are mandatory and optinal setups
The mandatory ones are marked with a star in the planning board
optinals have none
lets talk about them

Silent and stealthy
the approach specific setups are
-EMP
-infiltration suits

EMP is used to shut off all the power for a minute and that minute is very precious
allows you avoid cameras and metal detectors and decreases the gaurds vision

Infilatration suits
Allow you to enter through the roof and gives you night vision

Aggresive
Reinforced armour
Boring machine

Reinforced armour decreases damage taken but makes you slower
if your good at shooting you dont gotta do this one
if not do this one

Boring machine
Allows you to enter through the sewers
always do this one

Big con
Yung ancestor
Exit disguises

Yung ancestor is a entry suit you dont need to do this one

Exit disguises
by how the name sounds you dont need to do this one
There are playing cards if you collect them all you will unlock the high roller outfits i recommend hunting them all you will also get some cash

So those are the approach specific ones

the overall ones
Keycards level 1 and 2
Gaurd patrol routes
Duggan shipments
Power drills
security intel
Masks

Keycards
Allow you to slip past the keypads that would need to be hacked
only get level 2 ones
level 1 will only get you into the casino

Guard patrol routes
Show the location of the guards

Security intel
shows loctation of cameras
(you need to do this once and never again)
(unlocked by doing the 6 casino story missions)

Power drills
allow you to drill the safety depo boxes in the vault
if you get a full squad then go ahead

Masks
are only cosmetic dont do this one

Duggan shipments
Weakens the guards at the casino (aka takes away there armour and good guns)
you need to destroy 6 to remove there armour always do this one for all the approaches


so which should you always do?
well always do

Duggan shipments
Gaurd patrol routes
Keycard level 2
Security intel
and all the approach specific ones on the silent and sneaky and aggresive approach but not on big con

OK so we have that down lets talk about he things we can buy to help improve our preformance
these are the things you can buy

Practice keypad 450k
Casino model 130k
Practice Vault door 900k (only unlockable if you have access to mrs bakers office and photo the vault door blueprints)

Always get the keypad practice as once you get into the vault the loot will be locked behind doors that you need to hack
Casino model and vault door unessacry
you can also get a gunman decoy and a clean vecicle switch dont get them there not worth it
ok so now you can get into the vault lets talk about the escape strat that always works

Escape strat

After successfuly escaping the vault and getting out undetected or detected its time to escape
where do we go and what do we do
Well
(note this strat only works for the udetected approaches)
Head right and knock out the guard go along the racetrack ledge and go twoards the lost mc yard go to the gate of the racetrack and jump over if your cars are located there ignore the cars and jack a car
after gettiing the cars go to the bridge and take a right and enter the opening where there is the sewers go along the sewers and wait until you lose the cops
once you lose the cops DONT GO BACK TO THE CASINO the cops will chase you again go along the tunnels
now head to the buyer and your done!
Congratulations you just completed the casino heist
you can do this strat on aggresive but just shoot everyone
