Cocaine or elite challenge which one is more profitable

[Bayolll]

this question apply to normal mode and hard mode.
because i cannot do this heist fast, i can only get the secondary loot in main dock to win elite challenge

if lets say i only get weed and cash, no artwork and cocaine is  somewhere else that is far, should i go for it? if i go for cocaine i'll lose the elite challenge which can give you 100K in hard mode.
which one should i go for? weed, cash and elite challenge or cocaine, cash, and not getting the elite challenge
also, cash is better than weed right?

Money is worst loot. Not sure about the paintings? I'd favor elite over coke unless it's elite with 4 money vs. non-elite with 2 coke (most time it's something in between and I suck at the docks). You should try to loot the airfield instead, also check 2nd floor and the fork lifter. I usually take the Longfin, drive it to the airfield, park it where it won't float away, loot the airfield, drive to the drainage tunnel and then do the swim escape.

How do you approche the island, bc i did it with the kosatka its fast and easy (if you dont have thr srcret tunnel watch a vid how to get it) After that watch a vid how the npc path are and memorize them. Paintig is the 2nd best when you do it solo but thake coke when you can. After that i went to main doc with the motorcycle loot the woodenhut to the left you only need to shoot 1 guy there and takeout the cam too and watch out bc someone in a jeep will drive by. If your not full there is a 2nd hut that only gets guarded by 1 guy  just wait until he turns around them shoot him. After that you should be full then take out the 2 guys standing together and grab one of the boats, if you want you can shot the lost guy standing far away looking at the sea but it dosent matter if he alerts elrubio. Just drive straight and you will escape. I got it like this many times in like 10-11 mins

Short answer: Elite (on Hard) is worth more than the difference between Weed & Coke and about the same as the difference between Cash & Coke. 

 

Long answer: 

Cash max value - $357,680

Painting max value - $399,400

Weed max value - $398,040

Coke max value - $450,000 (but I've personally never seen it actually hit 450, more like 444 or so). 

 

Accordingly, you're better off going for the Elite Challenge rather than sacrificing it for Coke.

 

However, it's easy enough to bag the Elite Challenge simply by visiting as few Secondary locations as possible (ideally just one) then using the Guard Uniform plus a motorbike. Bag Secondary & Uniform, use bike to burn to the cliff near the tunnel, once in the compound kill only guards that are in between you & the Office (and even then only till the gate key drops, bearing in mind you'll need to kill the two Personal Bodyguards - the red guys - on the way up to the Office regardless). If the gate key doesn't drop before you hit the Office, weigh up whether or not you've got time to keep looking for it or just do the longer hack on the elevator. Bag Main Target, get to main gate, exit, shoot bike guy, take his bike & burn to western cliff, swim away. 

 

Even if you have to bike it from the airstrip, as long as everything goes relatively smoothly you should complete the Elite Challenge with 30-60 seconds to spare. What you don't want to be doing is getting held up waiting for guards to be in ideal spots (hence the uniform), crossing the island slowly (hence the bike) or hitting multiple secondary locations. 

 

Oh, and don't be married to the Longfin - choose the entry method that puts you closest to a guard uniform and a double secondary spot, and ideally near a spot where you can get a bike, or at least a jeep. Remember, with the uniform you can just roll right past any normal guard and all cameras so long as you're unarmed & they'll ignore you - not having to dodge/kill them saves massive amounts of time. For me the uniform is the key to getting the Elite Challenge every time.
