Lure walkthrough

Get the sniper rifle

Francis keeps the rifle in a car parked on Union Drive East, opposite Jerkov’s. Walk out of the park and follow the car marker on the radar. The ammo is in the car, and the game tells you to grab it before you leave. You do not need to hurry, because the target is not going anywhere.

Niko walks across a plaza with the objective to get ammo for his sniper rifle from the car.
Niko walks along a road toward the car Francis left.
A row of taxis waits on a road beside the park, with a driver stepping out of the first cab.

Drive to Denver Avenue

Head into East Holland and follow the route to Denver Avenue. The drive is short, so the car you already have is fine. When you stop, Niko phones Francis and learns which apartment belongs to the dealer: the fourth floor, on the east side of the street. Park nearby so you only have a short walk.

Niko stands at the open trunk of the car as Francis describes the apartment.

Climb to the rooftop

The objective changes to getting onto a rooftop opposite the dealer’s building. Find the door of the building across the street and take the stairs up. Step out on the roof, walk to the edge and pull out the sniper rifle. You can see his window from here, but he stays out of sight for now.

Lure the dealer into the open

The dealer sits behind his window and does not move, so you have to make him come to the glass. Zoom in with the scope and break a window pane, shoot the TV set or hit the cable dish outside. Any of them brings him to the window. Pick one thing and fire the moment he shows. If you scare him too much he runs for his car, and then you have to chase him, so take a calm shot. When he is down, the last objective is to leave the rooftop. Go back to the stairwell and head down.

Niko aims the sniper rifle across at the apartment building and its fire escape.

What fails this mission

Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:

  • The dealer gets away.

After the mission

Francis pays $5,000. Blood Brothers needs Tunnel of Death and I Need Your Clothes, Your Boots, and Your Motorcycle done as well, so follow the other jobs on your map next.
