Deal Breaker

Giver
Gerald
Location
Gerald's phone invite, or the Pause Menu job list; the team spawns in Los Santos with a marker to the drug deal

Gerald wants the cocaine from a Ballas and Vagos meeting at the gas company yard in Banning. You clear the yard, grab the package, fight off the gangs who come after it and bring it to Gerald’s apartment.

Before you start

Bring a rifle or sniper rifle for the opening shots and an SMG or shotgun for close range.

Body armor helps, because the gangs come from several sides once the coke is picked up.

A motorbike or fast car is worth having for the long ride to Gerald’s apartment.

Objectives

  1. Go to the drug deal.
  2. Steal the coke.
  3. Help deliver the coke to Gerald’s apartment.
  4. Deliver the coke to Gerald’s apartment.

Deal Breaker walkthrough

Ride to Banning

Follow the marker to the gas company yard in Banning. Travel on a bike or in a fast car, since the route is wide open and the objective timer is not forgiving about cash. Stop short of the yard, below the elevated road, and check the radar before you walk in. Stay together so the team can cover each other once the shooting starts.

Clear the deal

The Ballas and Vagos are gathered between the storage tanks and the warehouse. A scoped rifle lets you thin them out from the overpass before anyone knows you are there. Keep the concrete pillars between you and the yard, and take the ones holding rifles first. Wait for the area to go quiet, then walk down and pick up the coke to start the next stage.

Fight off the reinforcements

Once the coke is collected, more Ballas and Vagos arrive in Cavalcades, Ballers and Rancher XLs. You can fight them near the oil pumps, where the ground is open and your team can spread out, or simply get on the bikes and leave. Whoever carries the package should ride, while the others keep shooting at the pursuing vehicles.

Deliver to Gerald

Head back through the streets of Strawberry to Gerald’s apartment, following the map marker. Keep to the main roads, avoid collisions that throw you off the bike, and use alleys if anyone stays on your tail. At the apartment, walk through the building to the door to hand over the package.

What fails this mission

  • the team runs out of lives

After the mission

Gerald hands over the money and RP after you deliver the package. The payout grows with difficulty and shrinks the longer you take. Gerald has more jobs waiting in the Pause Menu job list.
