Jimbatron Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) Introduction and Table of Contents The purpose of this guide is to set out a strategy to achieve 100% completion, all single player achievements/trophies, and all interactive content as efficiently as possible. This will cover every single task required for you to reach the goal (nearly 400 separate entries). The key difference between this an many other guides on the internet is that it outlines the optimal order to complete every task required. An unplanned approach will have you travelling all over the map and revisiting the same places multiple times. This means there are significant time savings from optimising the order you approach each requirement in, as outlined in the embedded video above. This is done combined collectables and other tasks (e.g. stunt jumps, flying under bridges, hobbies etc) all when you are in the right location, which reduces the amount of times you have to revisit the same spot. Some miscellaneous activity can also be completed during missions themselves, which the guide outlines clearly in each case. In addition, linked videos also show you how to get gold in every single mission, so this also covers off the "Solid Gold, Baby!" Achievement/Trophy. These include time stamps, so you can click and jump to the part where each objective is completed. All the other single player achievements/trophies are also included in the guide. It also covers off all the other content in the game, for example, the strangers and freaks, hobbies and pass times , miscellaneous activity and random events shown on the social club not required for 100%. It flags miss-able content, such as the Simeon Yetarian random event, and the Altruist camp final shoot out, to ensure you get to experience everything in the game. It also cover content not in the original version of the game, such as Michael’s murder mystery, the Stunt Plane Time Trials, Monkey Mosaics, Wild Life Photography, and the Stock Car Races. I also flag a couple of still present bugs that can make some content unavailable, and how to fix or avoid them. In addition, the guide also shows how to make lots of money! This starts off with the optimal set up choices for each heist. Then it ensure you do Lester’s Assassinations at the right time and exploit the relevant stock market trades. It also covers some of the less well known stock trades you can make in the game, and debunks some of the myths out there. At the end, you’ll have over $2bn per character and own all of the properties. Although the guide content has been entirely produced by me, I have added credits in the acknowledgements section to others where they have provided inspiration or suggested modifications. This guide is arranged into the following Sections, click on the titles to jump to each part: A) Overall Requirements and Strategy* B) Chapter 1 C) Chapter 2 D) Chapter 3 E) Chapter 4 F) Chapter 5 G) Epilogue H) Summary and Acknowledgements (*This first section will give a rationale for the ordering and why it will make your quest much easier if you do things at certain points in the story, as well as highlighting which tasks are ones to have in mind from the beginning of your play through).

Jimbatron Posted May 2, 2022 Author Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) Overall Requirements and Strategy How to use the Guide The Guide is split into five chapters and an epilogue in the six posts below. These aren’t official chapters designated in the game, just my own way of breaking it up as otherwise it would be too long. Each chapter has tables showing what to do and when in order. Here is an example section from Chapter 1: Activity Name/Details Location Map Icon Notes Mission Franklin and Lamar Del Perro Beach Autostarts, click here for a gold medal video guide Non 100% Steal and Store a Bullet Simeon's Dealership, Pillbox Hill Click here for a video guide Mission Repossession Simeon's Dealership, Pillbox Hill F Click here for a gold medal video guide Misc Stunt Jump #1 End of Adam's Apple Boulevard During this mission you can take 1 easy stunt jump which will also save you time towards the gold medal objective Strangers and Freaks Pulling Favours Forum Drive, Stawberry ? Click here for a gold medal video guide Random Events Getaway Driver Dollar Pills, Strawberry Click here for a video guide. Unlocks Patrick McReary as a Heist Member Mission Complications Simeon's Dealership, Pillbox Hill F Click here for a gold medal video guide. Swithces your control to Michael, remain as him Strangers and Freaks (non 100%) Grass Roots - Michael Legion Square ? Click here for a gold medal video guide. Switch to Franklin after you complete the mission The columns have the following information. “Activity” details what type of content it is: either a Mission, Hobbies and Pastimes, Strangers and Freaks, Random Events, or Misc. If these are not required for 100% completion this is noted in brackets. Therefore if you just want to get the “Career Criminal” achievement/trophy you can skip this part of the guide. An example above is the Strangers and Freaks “Grass Roots - Michael”. There are also some marked in white as “Non 100%”. This is activity that doesn’t fit into any of the categories above but may be beneficial to do in helping you with your quest. “Name/Details” give the name to the activity, for example the mission title, and “Location” tells you roughly where on the map it is. “Map Icon” shows where relevant what type of symbol will appear on the pause menu and radar. These are colour coded in Green for Franklin, Blue for Michael, and Orange for Trevor. Where more than one character can start a mission, this colour indicates who to go with so you can see the full cutscene. “Notes” give you more information about what to do. Every entry has a clickable video link. This will zoom in on the map to show the precise location of the start point and any collectibles. The description of the video also has more detail on trips and tricks. In the case of missions that gave medal requirements, the timing of these are time stamped and also a gold medal difficulty rating is supplied (see further discussion below under the “Solid Gold, Baby!” achievement/trophy in the requirements section below. The “Notes” section also highlights the key things to look out for, whether you are auto switched to another character, or if the guide recommends you should manually switch characters in advance of doing the next task. Each row typically has one activity in, but sometimes two or more will be contained within the same border. In that case you know you will have the opportunity to combine two different tasks together. You can see this above where during the Mission “Repossession” you can also take your first stunt jump (Misc). Spaces (empty rows) between activities indicate you will have to travel some distance in a vehicle or switch characters to arrive at the location for the next task. Where there is no space it indicates the next task is very close - roughly walkable in a minute or two of real time, either in the same district or just a couple of blocks away. Requirements Before starting out it is worth considering how much of the game you want to complete. Not all content in the game is necessary to achieve the official 100% completion statistic and the "Career Criminal" Achievement/Trophy. In the spoiler below is a checklist of all the content required for the official 100% completion statistic Spoiler All story Missions Hobbies and Pastimes: Medals in shooting range challenges (3 hand guns, 3 sub machine guns, 3 assault rifles, 3 shotguns, 3 light machine guns, 3 heavy - the rail gun does not count but is shown in the guide) 5 Street Races Win at Tennis Play 9 Holes of Golf and Finish even or under par Win at Darts Get a Private Dance at the Strip Club 3 Triathlons 6 Off Road Races Medals in all 10 Flight School Missions 4 Sea Races 13 Parachute Jumps Strangers and Freaks: Pulling Favors Pulling Another Favor Pulling Favors Again Still Pulling Favors Pulling One Last Favor Shift Work Paparazzo - The Meltdown Paparazzo - The Sex Tape Paparazzo - The Partnership Paparazzo - Reality Check A Starlet in Vinewood Grass Roots - Franklin Grass Roots - The Smoke In Exercising Demons - Franklin Far Out The Final Frontier Risk Assesstment Liquidity Risk Targeted Risk Uncalculated Risk Random Events: Complete any 14 of the 60 available Misc: Purchase any five properties Collect 50 Spaceship Parts Collect 50 Letter Scraps Walk and Play Fetch with Chop Complete a Booty Call Receive Services from a Prostitute Hold up a Store Complete 25 X Under the Bridge Complete 8 X Knife Flights Complete 25 Stunt Jumps Visit the Cinema Friend Activity: Visit a Bar Friend Activity: Visit the Cinema Friend Activity: Visit the Strip Club Friend Activity: Play Darts If you want to get all the Single Player Achievements/Trophies, then some of these will be unlocked automatically as you progress towards 100%. Some you will partially progress to (such as the stunt jumps, knife flights, and bridge flights where you only have to do half of them for 100%), and others require you to engage in entirely separate activity not need for the official 100% completion. A list of Achievements/Trophies, and what is required, is contained in the spoiler below: Spoiler Obtained in the process of achieving the official 100% statistic: Welcome to Los Santos You repo'd a car and raced it through the heart of a sun-soaked metropolis. A Friendship Resurrected With friends like this who needs enemies? A Fair Day's Pay It's time for a little getaway. The Moment of Truth You have uncovered the truth about Brad. To Live or Die in Los Santos Completed the final mission. Diamond Hard You cleaned out Vangelico to pay back Martin Madrazo. Subversive You stole an experimental super weapon from Merryweather... and gave it back. Blitzed You performed a classic blitz play.

Partially Completed when getting 100%: Show Off Complete all Stunt Jumps. Close Shave Complete all Under the Bridge and Knife Flight challenges Non 100%: Solid Gold, Baby! Earn any 70 Gold Medals on Missions, Strangers and Freaks. The guide shows you how to get Gold in all 110 of the Missions and Strangers and Freaks content that have medal requirements. Each video is time stamped showing you the section where each criteria is met. Under that I have given each mission a difficulty rating. Those rated as Hard are the most difficult. I recommend not trying to get Gold on these unless you want to get Gold on every mission for its own sake. Conversely, those rated as Easy are the ones I would definitely go for if I wanted the 70 easiest medals for “Solid Gold Baby”. However this includes some optional Strangers and Freaks side quests Those rated as Medium are a little bit more tricky but you might consider trying for if you don’t want to do all of the optional content and just want to get the achievements/trophies San Andreas Sightseer Explore all of Los Santos and Blaine County For this you basically have to uncover all of the map. There is a video guide for this. All's Fare in Love and War Purchase Downtown Cab Co. and complete a private fare. All of the Cab Co missions are in the guide, as shown this is recommended you don’t buy the property until after the story and most other content. It will annoy the hell out of you if you’re on the way to a heist and the cab manager randomly calls up to ask you to do a private fare. TP Industries Arms Race Purchase McKenzie Field Hangar and win the arms race. Complete the Hobbies and Passtimes Arms Traffic Air and Ground 1-5. Missable if you pick “Something Sensible” as the final mission choice. Multi-Disciplined Attain a gold medal in all applicable hobbies and pastimes.

These collectibles aren’t required for 100% but will net you an achievement/trophy as well as some cash Red Mist Complete all Rampages. You need to complete Rampage One through Five to get this - you don’t have to get Gold in them. Missable if you pick “Something Sensible” as the final mission choice. Kifflom! Complete your path to enlightenment... or not. You need to do all the Strangers and Freaks Epsilon Missions from "Seeking the Truth" through to "Unknowing the Truth". This also can potentially net you £2m if done as in the guide. Missable if you pick “The Time Has Come” as the final mission choice. Three Man Army Survive 3 minutes on at least a 3 star Wanted Level with all three characters together off mission. You need to get all three characters out on a social together and cause some trouble. Missable if you don’t pick “The Third Way” as the final mission choice. Out of Your Depth You're gonna need a bigger boat... Get eaten by a shark, you can trigger a spawn by flying to the edge of the map until your planes engine cuts out Altruist Acolyte Deliver an unsuspecting victim to the Altruist Cult. You must deliver one of the following random events to the Altruists rather than their requested destination: Missable if you pick “Something Sensible” as the final mission choice. Also, although not required for the achievement/trophy, there is a missable special event triggered when you take the 4th victim there A Lot of Cheddar Spend a total of $200 million across all three characters. If you follow the guide and particular the stock market trades you’ll spend a lot more than this! Trading Pure Alpha Make a profit over your total investments in the stock market. As above, the guide will take you through all the most profitable stock market scripted gains Pimp My Sidearm Fully mod a weapon.

Deliver one of the following alive to Maude - Targets from the Hobbies and pastimes Bail Bonds Quarry, Farm, Mountain or Hobo. Missable if you pick “Something Sensible” as the final mission choice or accidentally kill them all. Los Santos Customs Fully mod a vehicle. It’s in the guide, as a place holder when to do it, but you shouldn’t really need one for this. Humans of Los Santos Unlock all Special Characters and enter Director Mode as an actor from this category. The guide takes you through where to find all the special characters you need to interact with. First Time Director Enter Director Mode for the first time as an unlocked actor. Shown in the Director mode achievements video Animal Lover Enter Director Mode as an unlocked animal actor for the first time. Youll need to eat one of the peyote plants Ensemble Piece Unlock all Story Characters and enter Director Mode as an actor from this category. Most of these you’ll get during the Story missions. However, you must visit Dr Friedlander at least once and do the "Special Bonds" , "Nigel and Mrs Thornhill", and Epsilon Strangers and Freaks Missions. This is therefore missable if you don’t pick “The Third Way” as the final mission choice. Cult Movie Enter Director Mode as Cris Formage. You need to complete “Unknowing the Truth”. Missable if you pick “The Time has come” as the final mission choice Location Scout Visit all Locations in Director Mode.

Nothing different other than changing your view There is then additional content you may wish to experience even though it isn't required for 100%, nor linked to an achievement/trophy. Many of these will unlock a social club thumnail icon. If you are unsure of where these are, log in to the social club, go to Games, Grand Theft Auto V, Story, and Checklist to see the ones you have unlocked. A list is in the spoiler below.

Michael’s Murder Mystery Unlocks special camera filters Golden Peyote Plants Unlocks The Beast in Director Mode Strategy - Unlocking all 60 Random Events This is something of a misnomer. They always occur in a specific place (or places in the case of ATM Robberies), and will always spawn if you go to the right place (with a notable exception below), so there is very little that is random about them! Perhaps they would seem that way to our Protagonists, as they aren’t part of the main story. You only need 14 of the 60 available for the official 100% stat. If you only want to get 100%, then you will probably encounter 14 without even trying. However if you want to get all 60 events ticked off it requires more thought. Expand the spoiler for details. Spoiler The first challenging part of getting them all is that they won’t spawn sequentially: if you have recently encountered one there will be a delay of a few game hours before another will appear. This makes it difficult to go around the map collecting them all. This can be countered to a degree, by saving and reloading or driving some distance. However, the guide makes it manageable by spacing these out and getting ones that are nearby on you route to and from missions. Most of the random events are one time encounters. However, there are a couple of exceptions. “ATM Robbery” can continually re-occur, and also isn’t limited to one location, it can occur anywhere where there is a cash machine. This can be quite annoying - because if you run into one unintentionally, it will prevent another random event spawning for a while that you might want to encounter. Generally though, if there is a mission or other activity in between this and the next random encounter you want in the guide it will be fine. Also there are the Security Vans. There are 10 in total and they are not one time events, meaning you’ll be able to encounter the same one more than once. However, when you’ve encountered one, no other security vans will spawn for a couple of in game days. This presumably is to stop players farming them for cash. Saving and reloading won’t do you any good here though, you have to allow time to elapse. Fortunately this guide again spreads the security vans out in the schedule so you can be confident the next one will spawn when it’s time to tick it off the list. If you tried to get all 10 back to back though you’d get frustrated very quickly. You should note in particular the Simeon Yetarian random event is miss-able. If you don’t complete this before the Jewel Store heist it will no longer be available. And as that’s very early in the game, it would be a bad one to miss if you wanted to tick off all the games content - you’d be in for a lot of replaying. This guide of course includes all the Random events in its schedule and shows where to find them. But if you decided to skip some of them, it’s worth noting some are particularly valuable: “Getaway Driver” and “Crash Rescue” both unlock heist crew members and they are two of the best ones. “Burial”, “Deal Gone Wrong”, “Country Side Robbery”, and “Drug Shootout” have some of the better cash rewards. “Bike Thief City 1” will reward you with some shares worth $100k. “Car Theft 2” rewards you with a unique suit “Hitch lift 1” gives you a stock market tip - see below for more details. “Hitch Lift 2” gives you a booty call option. Strategy - Utilising Characters Special Abilities Whether you are setting out to just complete the game, the official 100% stat, or all the content, this is something you should master. In certain circumstances, the three characters special abilities are massively over powered. If you want to complete all the games content, learning how to master them will make the task so much easier. This includes picking the right character for the right job, and also managing your Special Ability Power Metre (the yellow bar below the radar), so it doesn’t run out. In most cases, you can get all the benefit from the Special Ability in a short burst of a second or two. So only turn them on briefly, then off again to minimise the drain on your reserves. Expand the spoiler for details on each character's unique Special Ability: Spoiler Michael Michaels Special Ability slows down time when he is on foot. This allows you to make very accurate shots as moving targets will be much slower and you’ll have more time to refine your aim. It can also buy you time if you’re in danger of getting overwhelmed by multiple bad guys and killed - allowing you to take several of them out before they get a shot off. The most important use is getting a Gold Medal on any mission with a headshot and accuracy target. When you have a choice of characters, you should maximise time with Michael and his special to help you get this. You should try and get your aim roughly in the right place manually first. Then activate the special just for a second to refine your aim and get a headshot, deactivating as soon as the red x appears on screen confirming the kill. This will minimise the drain on the bar. Getting kills without the special will recharge the bar, so be on the look out for some easy kills (eg a stationary target) to top up your reserves if it’s running low. Another use is that it works well in hand to hand combat, as your opponents won’t have time to react as you batter them. Notable uses are the gold objectives to knock down Simeon and Rocco without damage in “Complications” and “Mr Richards” respectively. It’s also useful to take out Stretch with a melee weapon in “The Third Way” Franklin Frankin’s special slows down time when driving a car or other land based vehicle (E.g Bike or Truck) as well as allowing you to accelerate quicker and exceed normal top speed of the vehicle. This has a couple of uses - obviously it helps with driving, but also less obviously it allows you to shoot very accurately while in a vehicle - much in the same way Michael does on foot. For starters, you should use Franklin for all the land races in Hobbies and Pastimes. This is especially true for the Off Road races (needed for 100%) but also the Stock Car races if you do them. The Street Races can only be done by Franklin and are equally useful here. Use the special primarily in corners to turn with much greater speed than you normally would. Deactivate it as soon as you exit to preserve your special ability energy bar. It can also be used to cleanly overtake or regain ground if you crash and fall behind. Near misses or driving close to other cars will quickly recharge the energy bar - so deliberately drive close when passing other vehicles to top it back up. Once you’ve got the knack of this it’s almost impossible to lose a race as Franklin. It’s also useful in any mission where there is a Gold Objective with a time limit, or to hit top speed in a vehicle. With the time limit, obviously the ability slows down time, but because you can exceed the vehicles top speed, and the momentum keeps you going after you turn it off, this can drastically cut journey time. For example, in my Gold Run for “The Long Stretch” I hit 180 Mph in Frankin's stock Buffalo. Also if there are Combat objectives don’t get out of the car until you have to and use Frankin's special to get accurate Headshots. Examples of this are the beginning of combat in “Fresh Meat” and “Lamar Down” Trevor Trevor’s Special turns him into a walking tank. It massively increases the damage he deals to opponents whilst reducing the damage he takes when hit on foot (but note it doesn’t work in a vehicle). First and foremost, this can save you when you are being overwhelmed in combat situations with multiple enemies. It is so effective I don’t think I’ve ever died when using it - to all practical intents, Trevor becomes invulnerable. It is also useful when you have an “Unmarked” gold objective (to take limited damage). It’s also quite handy indirectly in other cases. Where there is a Time objective, it allows you to charge straight into a hail of gunfire and eliminate enemies quickly. Where you need accuracy or headshots, you can turn the special ability on. This protects you whilst you take extra time to line up your aim. As a result, if Michael isn’t available, or his metre has run low, you can use Trevor as a back up for these objectives. Strategy - Heist Options If you want to maximise you take, the following heist options and crew members are best. These are all utilised in the guide below (with one minor deviation from the money optimising choices for plot purposes). That said, all the approaches are viable and don’t be deterred from picking the one you find most fun. However read the details in the spoiler, as some bad crew choices can cost you - particular for the big score where it’s possible to lose a big chunk of the the take if you have an inexperienced person in the wrong role. Spoiler The Jewel Store Job I recommend picking the Smart Option, Patrick McReary as gunman, Karim Denz as driver, and Rickie Luken as Hacker. You need to take a good gunman otherwise he’ll crash and you’ll incur a causality expense. McReary is the most cost effective option if you’ve unlocked him via a random event that the guide will show you how to do. You don’t need an experience driver if you don’t mind having a suboptimal vehicle through the tunnels, but it’s fine. So go for Karim because he’s cheap. Rickie Lukens is a poor hacker but still gives you enough time to clear all the Jewels. In fact, if you want the gold medal you can’t take more time than he gives you anyway, so going for a more expensive crew member isn’t worth it. If you pick the Loud Option you need a good drive too, so pick Eddie Toh. The reason being is that the gunman has to mind the staff, so the driver has to help collect the jewels. A weak driver will drop some of the take. There aren't much benefits to picking Loud at all. You will make less money, miss out on one easy gold medal setup mission, and the finale itself is a bit harder to get gold on. The only benefits I can see to picking loud would be is if you are trying to speed run the game (as it requires one less set up), or personal preference on the style. The Merryweather Heist Whatever you do it won’t affect the pay-out. However, there are a couple of small benefits to picking “Offshore”. Firstly you get an additional easy Gold Medal for a setup mission. Secondly you get some extra weapons such as a combat machine gun for Franklin. Oddly enough, whilst if you are going for the "Solid Gold, Baby" achievement trophy, "Offshore" is better (due to one additional easy set up Gold Medal), if you want to get Gold on every mission in your playthrough, it is worth noting that I think most players will find the "Freighter" finale less difficult to get a Gold Medal on than "Offshore". The Blitz Play No Options for this heist. The Paleto Score You only have one choice to make, which gunman. Optimal for money is to take norm Richards. Whilst he will die, provided you pick up his bags his lower fee will compensate for his casualty expense. Technically you could take Daryl Johns and make money money from this mission, however he will die too here, and you really want to save him as the cheapest gunman for the final two heists. However, I like to take Patrick McReary for this. Although he’s more expensive, you get to hear him tell the story of “Three Leaf Clover” from GTA IV enroute to Paleto Bay and for me it’s totally worth it for the nostalgia. The Bureau Raid: I recommend picking Roof Entry, Taliana Martinez as driver, Daryl Johns as gunman and Rickie Lukens as hacker. They are the cheapest options and none of them will die. If you pick the Covert option, you only have to take two gunmen. However if one of both of your gunmen are inexperienced then the least experienced one will die. This incurs a casualty expense and you’d be better off taking Gustavo Mohta and Patrick McReary. However, this will cost more than the three cheap crew members needed for the roof entry. You also can’t easily get Daryl some experience for the Big Score. This said, if you want the "Solid Gold, Baby" achievement/trophy, and are struggling to get the 70 medals you need, it is worth considering the Covert Option. You get an additional easy set up mission gold medal, and the gold criteria are not as hard on Covert as for Roof Entry. The Big Score I recommend you pick the Obvious option, pick Taliana Martinez as driver one (very important, if you pick a poor driver they lose half the take), Karim Denz and driver two, Hugh Welsh as gunman one and Daryl Johns as gunman two. The Obvious option will give you a better return as you don’t need a hacker and there is no cost to using the cheapest options if you’ve unlocked Taliana as a driver (shown in the guide below). Gunman one does very little fighting as they’re mostly wheeling the gold out whilst you hold off the NOOSE, so they do not need to have experience. Daryl Johns is therefore the best pick as you will have got some experience on the Bureau Raid and can help you out better in combat - although gunman 2 still won’t die whatever you do. If you want to go with the Subtle option, you must pick an experienced crew member as driver one, otherwise you risk losing a third of the take and suffer a casualty expense. Pick Taliana as driver one and Karim as driver two and you’ll be fine. Gunman one will help unload the gold under fire, if he is inexperienced he will drop some, which will eat into your profits. Unfortunately even if you used Daryl for the Bureau Raid (with Roof Entry) he is still vulnerable to cost you here. So pick either Patrick McReary or Chef as Gunman one, and Daryl Johns and Gunman 2. Although you'll get significantly less money with the Subtle approach, around about $5m less per character, it is worth considering if you want the "Solid Gold, Baby!" achievement/trophy and have been struggling to get all the medals you need. This is because Subtle has four easy set up mission gold medals, whereas Obvious only has two. The finale for Subtle is also not as difficult to get a Gold Medal on as Obvious. This is primarily because of the accuracy requirement. In Obvious you have a combat section where you are forced to use Franklin. In Subtle you can do most of the fighting with Michael and make use of his special ability to help you. It should also be noted if you follow the guide you will make so much money from stock market trades it could be argued the $15m lower take is somewhat moot - you will wind up with more money than you can possibly spend regardless. I recommend keeping a manual save before each heist planning board so you can reload and try the alternative approaches if you want to. More important to making money though, is not they choices you make regarding heists, but how you play the stock market. Strategy - Making Money Using the Stock Market In the game it’s pretty much the same as reality. You want to buy low and sell high. So if you buy 1 million shares at a price of $1 each, and then sell them after the price rises to $2 you’ll get $2m back and have made $1,000,000 clear profit. Some people complain there aren’t enough money making opportunities in the game - I’ll bet they aren’t using the Stock Market correctly. This is what will get you more money than you can possibly spend in the game. You can buy stocks whenever you like. They’ll randomly fluctuate up and down for the most part, and it will be pot luck whether you win or lose. However, there are certain scripted story mode events that will cause stock prices to fluctuate by huge amounts. If you know when these are, and take full advantage you can make over $2bn per character. See inside the spoiler for details. Spoiler Most stock prices changes are triggered by completion of story missions (and one by a random event) - these are all described below. However these won’t always happen instantly on completion. You may need to wait for some time to pass before the stock hits it’s peak or trough. To save waiting you can sleep in a bed in any safe house, which advances time. Here you should carefully choose which character depending on how long you need to advance time for. Trevor sleeps for 12 hours, Franklin for 8, and Michael for 6 (explanation - Trevor is cranked up most of the time, so no surprise when he finally sleeps it’s for a long time. Franklin is your average persons sleep. And Michael is a Dad, having just happily become a father myself I can attest that you get used to less sleep). So use Trevor to advance time rapidly if it’s several days you need to pass, or Michael if you need a fine tune adjustment. How do you know how long to sleep for? This isn’t totally exact in each case, it can depend for example on what time of day you finish the mission, although the guide gives you a good ball park indicator. However the guide also gives you a target return percentage. Unfortunately this isn’t exact either! Although there may be a scripted rise in a stock, there is always a random movement put on top of that - so it won’t always be exactly the same if you replay. But if the guide says you should get a ~100% return, expect it to be between 90% and 110%. The best thing to do is after every sleep, check your phone, and see if the stock has reached your target % change. If it is on the LCN website this is much easier as there is a graph which very clearly shows if a scripted jump in the price has occurred. You may want to sleep once as Michael to check it has plateaued - after share prices hit a peak or trough, they’ll stay that way for a while. If it’s flattened off you know there isn’t another rise or fall about to happen after you sell or buy. On the Bawsdaq it’s slightly harder to fine tune as the graph does not show scripted jumps on it. You have to go by the quoted return percentage. The final thing is to make sure you do missions that change stock prices as late as possible. This is because you’ll have more money to invest and the multiplies gains from stock trading will be larger. The following Lester Assassination missions for Franklin all impact stock prices: "The Hotel Assassination" "The Multi Target Assassination" "The Vice Assassination" "The Bus Assassination" "The Construction Assassination" "The Hotel Assassination" must be done early to advance the story, but the others can all be delayed until after “The Third Way” when you will get the proceeds from the Big Score. You absolutely must do this. Why? The combined gains from these four missions will multiply any money you can invest by a factor of around 24 times [multiple probably bigger than this - will return to edit later]. Let’s say you do this before you’ve got your proceeds before the Big Score and have $5m to invest. You’ll end up with $120m. That might sound pretty good. However now consider you wait until after you have the money from the Big Score and have around $40m to invest. At a 24 times multiplier this will leave you with a whopping $960m. The Random event Hitch Lift 1 also provides a stock Market tip - this should similarly be delayed until after the main story missions are complete. Conversely, you should try to grab what income you can before these missions. The main variable here is Michael’s optional Epsilon Strangers and Freaks missions. Completing these in the right way will net you $2m, actually the best payout outside of The Big Score. So doing this early is advantageous. Anyway, that’s the theory. The guide schedule below explains exactly when and where to do all this - when to do the missions, when to buy which stocks and when to sell them. There are also some less well known stock movements in the game outside of Lesters Assassination mission that can be similarly exploited. Vangellico This stock takes a knock after the Jewel Store Robbery. It will rebound after the mission “Minor Turbulence”. However, you need to be aware Michael and Trevor will be unavailable briefly after completing “Caida Libre”, so you must buy the stock before starting that mission. You may need to sleep once after completing “Minor Turbulence” to check it has plateaued. You should get a return of around 25% Gruppe Sechs This rebounds after “Fresh Meat” from the aftermath of the Blitz Play Heist. Again you need forward planning here because Michael will briefly become unavailable after “Bury the Hatchet” so you should invest in the stock for all three Characters before this mission. You may need to sleep for 12-18 in game hours after “Fresh Meat” for the stock to reach its peak, which should get you a return around 12.5%. Fly US After the events of “Legal Trouble”, Fly US stock will dip by about half. You may need to sleep a couple of times for it to reach the trough at which point you should invest with all three characters. This is one of the shortest rebounds in the game, with it returning to its approximate previous value after “Meltdown”. Your target return is 80-100%, this can be quite variable, given you have to time the buy and the sell correctly. Again you may need to sleep a couple of times for it to hit its peak after you finish Meltdown. Augury Insurance This stock will rise after you complete “The Third Way”. It’s not clear on the rationale for this. Some sight that it’s the Big Score, but I’m not so sure. If they were the insurer for $200m of gold they’d be taking a hit at this time, not a bounce. I wonder if it’s actually possibly a rebound following the Bureau Raid, as substantial damage is caused to the FIB building. Regardless, you should put all your money in Augury before it rebounds after the Story climax. Ideally you want to invest your proceeds of the Big Score in this, and it is possible since Augury won’t always shoot up straight after “The Third Way”. What is critical is that you start the mission early in the morning, ideally 7-9am. Why? At the end when Trevor arrives at the cliffs the game will advance time to sunset. If you’ve got there a afternoon, this causes and advance of a few hours. However if you start the mission in the afternoon you’ll probably arrive night time. This will cause the game to advance time by nearly a full day to get to the next sunset. This advance in time will mean Augury will already have jumped by the time you get control back in free mode and you won’t be able to invest your Big Score proceeds in the stock before it jumps. Given you might not want to replay “The Third Way”, especially if you get a Gold Medal on it, it’s a good idea to invest your money in Augury before starting. Then if you get the mission done before sunset, you should be able to put your extra income after. Your target return is 80-100% Clucking Bell This will jump after “The Third Way” by about 66%. But there’s no point in investing in it because you get a better return from Augury so you are better off putting all your cash there instead. Myth - Merryweather? It seems logical that this will take a rebound after the “The Third Way”, the text message from Don Percival certainly suggests this will happen. It definitely takes a knock. However, I’ve advanced time for weeks, and I’ve never seen a scripted jump in it. What I would say is after “The Third Way” it’s probably at its minimum value, so the only way is up for it. Random fluctuations may be more likely than other stocks to give you a small positive return, but there is not obvious step up like those mentioned above Myth - Free Roam actions impact the stock market This isn’t true. I think this was reported in a magazine article before the game was release, so possibly a cut feature, but the myth seems to persist in some corners of the Internet. Don’t go around blowing up planes in free roam hoping to affect stock prices, it won’t work. Only scripted missions do this. Strategy - Buying Properties You have to buy any five properties for 100% completion (excluding garages, helipads, etc), but there are more - 16 to be precise. And some have unique achievements/trophies attached to them as well. So which ones should you get and when? Check inside the spoiler for details. Spoiler The main thing you should consider is that many of these properties will have management missions, where you can be rung up randomly and asked to perform some task. Since you can't control when this will occur, it can be extremely annoying to have this happen when you are miles away, intent on doing something else. Therefore I pick five properties that do no have management missions to buy to complete the game to 100%. If you want to access all the content in the game, including the property management missions, I recommend buying those after you have done everything else. As a side point, it is worth noting you are unlikely to make a return on these properties - even the fastest return is over 20 in game weeks, so there isn't a financial impetus to invest sooner. I buy the following properties to get to 100% while the story mission is in progress: McKenzie Field Hangar (Trevor): Unlocks Hobbies and Pastimes and Achievement/Trophy "TP Industries Arms Race" for doing 5 air and 5 ground missions. Feels natural for Trevor to do this before going to Los Santos. Sonar Collections Dock (Any, I buy for Michael due to "Death at Sea" being near): Actually makes a profit, required to unlock the "Waste Management" achievement trophy, postponing risks "Death at Sea" glitching out. I then buy the following 3 properties after the main story to hit 100% completion: The Golf Course (Any, I pick Michael because the last couple of stock trades take him over the $2bn limit): No property management missions. Los Santos Customs (Franklin): No property management missions. LSPD Auto Impound (Franklin): No property management random phone calls, you have to go to the tow truck. I buy the rest after I've completed all the other optional content. Out of these I get the Downtown Cab Co. first for Franklin as it is required to do one property management mission for that business to unlock the "All's Fare in Love and War".

Jimbatron Posted May 2, 2022 Author Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) Chapter 1: "Back in the Game" Part A Your quest begins here, first with the Prologue showing you the events in North Yankton. You will then be given control of Franklin currently working with his friend Lamar in repo for Simeon Yetarian. One of his jobs is to take a car from a big mansion in Rockford Hills but the owner isn’t the pushover his boss suggests. Before starting the second mission with Franklin, "Repossession", take and store the Bullet GT parked outside the dealership as this will be helpful for races later and stunt jumps. Sometimes you'll be able to keep it after the mission if you use it there, but sometimes not, so save it now! Another one will respawn for the mission. "Repossession" has an easy stunt jump to take, so watch out for it. Then do the first Strangers and Freaks out side your safe house with Tonya, and then look to complete the Random Event, "Getaway Driver" to unlock Patrick McReary as a Heist Member. The following mission will unlock Michael to switch to. As he will be in town, do "Grass Roots - Michael" which is just around the corner before switching back to Franklin. Then do "Chop", a couple more random events close by and unlock Hao's street races. You can use the Bullet GT you stored earlier and Franklin's special ability to win this easily. NB.

A therapy session does nothing to calm him. Then back home his family life disintegrates. He tried yoga, and watching TV, but nothing soothes his mood. Going into town for a haircut, he ironically gets caught up in someone else’s robbery. But he does encounter a strange Epsilonist and, in his depressed state, checks out their website.

Jimbatron Posted May 2, 2022 Author Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) Chapter 3: "Different Bosses, But Still No Pay" Part A Michael, singularly unimpressed with the Merryweather Heist debacle, gets more involved with the Epsilon Program as a refuge from his Trevor troubles. Trevor is similarly frustrated and looking to take it out on someone, first on a group of Ballas alone, then as a group when he meets up with Franklin and Lamar. After “Hood Safari”, stay on the Seashark to go picking collectibles along the east coast. Note there are two collectibles right next to the random event “Seaplane”. The Dodo plane is a unique vehicle so you may wish to store it in your hangar.

Returning into town, Michael encounters some clues pointing to a murder, with further evidence apparently left under the sea. This appeals to his movie fantasies so he heads out to buy a dock. There he encounters Abigail pointing to a new mystery. You can do the Heist setups as any Character but make sure you pick Franklin for “Tow Truck” and “Trash Truck” to utilise his special ability.

Unfortunately he takes Trevor rather than Franklin and things go badly wrong when payment for the favour isn’t forthcoming.
