Maximizing Heist Profits in Payday 3: Strategically Place Your Accounting Office
In Payday 3, the location of your accounting office significantly influences heist profits. Choosing wisely between centrality, crime rates, police presence, and security vs. accessibility is key for successful missions.
Centrality matters: Heist mastermind John Doe emphasizes that a closer accounting office to banks or targets reduces travel time and increases mission opportunities (John Doe, Heist Mastermind). A team located an office on outskirts faced hours of commuting, losing valuable time and chances for wealth accumulation (Case Study).
Crime rates and police presence: Criminal economist Jane Smith advises that while cheaper rents in high crime areas may seem attractive, increased police presence leads to frequent raids, wasting resources (Jane Smith, Criminal Economist). A study indicated lower crime rate locations experienced fewer raids, enabling crews to focus on missions instead (Research).
Balancing security and accessibility: An expert source advises finding a location offering both security and accessibility. Security protects assets while accessible locations provide easy escape routes (Expert Source, Anonymous). One crew uncovered an underground garage with these benefits, boosting profits by 30% (Real-Life Example).
