Lester wants a briefcase of security system plans that is changing hands at a construction site above Downtown. You get up to the unfinished tower, take the case and bring it to his warehouse in Murrieta Heights.
Before you start
Lester does not supply a helicopter, so arrive in your own aircraft or be ready to climb the crane on foot.
Bring a rifle and body armor, because armed men wait on the tower.
Nobody respawns during this job, so with a team stay together and keep each other alive.
Objectives
- Steal the briefcase.
- Deliver the briefcase to Lester’s warehouse.
High Priority Case walkthrough
Get to the tower
The marker sits on the Mile High construction site in Downtown, and the exchange happens at the very top. Take any fast car and drive in, or fly a helicopter of your own and land on the roof. Nothing stops you on the streets, so use the drive to top up armor and check your weapon wheel before the fight starts. If you arrive by car, park beside the lower works and go in on foot.
Climb the crane
Without a helicopter, the way up is the tower crane. Find the caution sign at the foot of the ladder and climb the long series of ladders and caged platforms. Hold the climb button and keep going; you are slow while climbing, so watch for anyone who spots you from above. At the top, step off the ladder onto the roof before you draw a weapon.
Clear the roof and take the case
On top, scaffolding and wooden walls give you cover against the guards. Use them, peek out, and take out each shooter from range before moving on. Switch weapons from the weapon wheel if you run dry. When the roof is quiet, head down into the open floor below and clear the last few guards around the support pillars. Pick up the briefcase to start the delivery.
Get down and deliver
The objective changes to deliver the case to Lester’s warehouse. If you came by helicopter, simply fly out and land near the marker. On foot, you must go back down the same crane, so use the ladders again and drop into any car at the bottom. Drive to Murrieta Heights without damaging the case or losing your team, and park inside the marked warehouse to finish.
What fails this mission
Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:
- the briefcase is destroyed
- the team runs out of lives
After the mission
You earn cash and RP depending on how long it took. Lester has more jobs waiting; the next ones open as you gain rank.
