🔎 Scoping the Vault
Casino Heist: To see what’s in the vault:
- Start the Casino Heist Setup via Lester at the Arcade.
- Begin the “Scope Out the Casino” prep mission.
- Locate the vault security feed in the manager’s office.
- View the feed—this reveals the vault content for your heist.
⚠️ You must complete this step after each heist or any time you cancel and restart the setup.
🔁 How to Reset Vault Contents (Legit In-Game Method)
There is no “reset” button, but you can change the vault content by canceling and restarting the heist setup. Here’s the step-by-step process:
🧾 Resetting Vault Contents: Step-by-Step
| Step | Action | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Launch the Arcade setup via Lester | Must own an Arcade |
| 2 | Complete “Scope Out the Casino” and check the vault content | Mandatory |
| 3 | If the vault content is not what you want, cancel the heist setup | Costs $25,000 |
| 4 | Wait for Lester to call again (a few minutes) | He’ll offer you the job again |
| 5 | Start a new heist and re-scope the vault | Content is randomized |
You can repeat this process as many times as needed. While it costs $25,000 to cancel, this is a small investment if you’re chasing high-value content like gold or artwork.
💡 Reset Strategy Tips
| Tip # | Strategy | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Scope first, prep later | Save time/resources if vault content is bad |
| 2 | Aim for Artwork or Gold | Best balance of value and time efficiency |
| 3 | Keep an eye on Events (e.g., Diamond Week) | Diamonds are only available during special events |
| 4 | Use solo prep method (two-player minimum for finale) | Keeps costs low |
| 5 | Switch session if Lester doesn’t call back quickly | Can trigger faster reset availability |
📈 Should You Always Reset for Better Loot?
It depends on your priorities. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:
| Player Type | Recommended Action | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Solo grinders | Reset for Artwork | Fastest to steal, great value |
| Crew-based teams | Reset for Gold/Diamonds | Higher max payout with a team |
| Casual players | Stick with what you get | Reduces prep fatigue |
| Event grinders | Chase Diamonds only | Time-limited opportunity |
