Farming Fleeca v One play through of PS.

[theEwing1979]

Host and play through Fleeca nine times and you'll clear more profit than hosting the set ups and finale of Pacific Standard assuming you take a 55% cut ($687,500) of the take and make off with the full $1,250,000.

 

Fleeca set up cost $11,500 x9 = $103,500

 

60% cut of Fleeca take = about £86,000(?) x9 = $774,000

 

I have found this tedious but better than relying on randoms to get me through the PS set ups and finale.

 

Try it.

[Ocelot]

about £86,000(?) x9 = $774,000

 

What kind of exchange rate is that. o.O 1:1?

And farming Fleeca is definitely more efficient if you play with randoms.

[Smesi]

Yeah but the Fleeca Job is the sh*tiest heist and the most boring one as well.

[s4rkrs]

If you're a good driller then make sure you're the driller if playing with randoms, the reason I hate to join randoms is because they suck at drilling and take 15 minutes of me watching the people inside, I wish we could just kill them.

[§†range]

Your maths is sound, but f*ck that

[countingfingers]

A random requested a deal in which we would do the Fleeca job twice, each time one of us will take the full cut, skeptical I told him I'll bite if he let me do it first so he won't be scamming me. So he said fine, but has never sent me a request and hasn't said anything, oh well. I'm better of doing my own things anyway.

[Giantsgiants]

Hosting Fleeca isn't even necessary. Use the quick job feature and more often than not, every other heist you'll join is Fleeca.

[Eggobites90]

High risk high reward is no way to make money in GTAO.

 

Think of it this way: by grinding you are already playing the game in a way that is different than if you had all the stuff you want.

 

The reliability of getting the money you want in a boring way is worth sacrificing the bigger payouts that result from immensely stressful, less reliable jobs.

you can make quite a bit more just grinding contact missions with randoms

[Ai®a©ob®a]

Except you can only play it one host per 48 minutes so if you and a friend do Fleeca Bank and each host it by time you're done you'll have to wait at lleast 20 minutes before one of you can start it again so in that hour if you have a full group you can pull off Pacific Standard.

[Eggobites90]

So in those 20 minutes sell a car and do potshot a few times for about $10,000 per 4 minutes.

[ghoraaa]

If none of my heist friends online, i'd still choose contact mission over fleeca, fleeca is boring, grinding mission with random is much better, more fun and less stressful

[TH3 S3LL0UT]

You have the same idea as me, but considering that once you're done the heist, you can't play it again unless you have eight other friends playing.

 

 

 

P.s. I've been running into the flecca job constantly, I've really profited from it. I just hate how there are those trolls that don't do a thing when the hack part comes. My solution is driving the car into the ocean. For the low levels, they really have a hard time with an easy hack.

You need to find better crew members bud.

 

Usually looking at 100-120K per hour and that's top rate grinding with contact missions.

 

We run the entire PS strand on hard with 40/20/20/20 cut in 75-90 minutes. That nets 380-400K.

 

It's not even close.

And how long does the entire Fleeca take approximately? That will be multiplied by 9, resulting the raw overall time.

 

Then you also should count how long the errors and disconnections may take in total? Add that to the raw overall time.

 

With this, you know if that $670,500 worth the time or not. Then you can start comparing to other missions.

If I remember my CM run, it took roughly 30 minutes to complete Fleeca, so 9 attempts would result in about 4 and a half hours. Total of $774K (According to OP.)

 

PS can be completed in completed in 1 and a half hours with a good team, so that's pretty much 3 full runs. Total of $1.2 million.

 

As for grinding contact missions (even with randoms), that's about $100K per hour. Total of $450K in 4 and a half hours.

 

This is an estimate without disconnections and failures for the heists (I mentioned that you needed a good team, so that's assuming that no one fails.)

This.

 

As for grinding Fleeca as host, unless its changed with the update then theres a significant cool down time for replaying the same heist as host, so I don't understand how you could grind fleeca as host. Am I missing something?

if he had good crew members, I guess he wouldn't need the randoms

[Geefiasco]

Been there, done that. I earned approx. 4 million grinding Fleeca for IGG1.

 

'Scope Out' is a pain and seems like a chore; but apart from that, it's worth doing.

 

Also, the lack of basic skill you come across from high-ish level players on this heist is shocking. I've failed the finale every now and then due to complete idiots being thick as pig sh*t and cannot simply intimidate hostages or drive the car under the Cargo Bob.

 

I've stopped doing Fleeca since the latest exploit has me sitting on 10's of millions and I'm not a shamed to admit it; but if I were to be banned/deducted money, Fleeca grinding will return as it's the most efficient way of making dosh alongside selling cars and LTS whilst waiting for the cool down.

[Silver le Belge]

Also, you need to take account of the cool-off time for heists

 

Imagine you grind Fleeca with a friend. You can do it in 20 min of you are good. Then your friend can host it. And finally, you still need to wait 25 min to host it again.

 

Do PS with 3 friends. You host the first one. Then someone else hosts it. At the end of it, you can host it again. No cool-off.

 

Fleeca is easy. Only one random to invite, easy money. Best if you want to farm alone, combined with missions and car theft. But PB is best with 4 good players.

 

Maybe a easier heist like Humane could have a better risk/reward ratio.

[Geefiasco]

Also quick tip which some of you probably already know:

 

When doing Kuruma - wear your Heavy Utility Vest and simply drive up to the Kuruma and jump inside it. Saves wasting time killing everyone.

 

Just make sure you drive up as close as you can (leaving a gap for you to get out your car, of course)

 

If the other guy dies, you'll simply continue the heist at the getaway part, avoiding the shootout. Saves a few minutes.

Grind the shark. Bigger payout, less time, less effort. Shark eats money and spits out GTA$
