This is a comprehensive solo stealth guide for the “Boys in Blue” heist in Payday 3. This run is performed on Overkill difficulty and completed entirely without ever equipping a mask. It’s loud in theme, but silent in execution. Here’s how to do it.

Loadout and Skills

• Rush Generation: Use donut boxes and civilian proximity to maintain rush.
• Quick Fingers + Hacker Branch: Required to pick locks quickly and loop cameras when needed.
• Motion Sensor: Place on the Lead Guard for GPS tracking.

Phase 1: Infiltration

1. Start in Lobby: Wait until you’re unobserved to steal the box of donuts. This gives full Rush.
2. Open Rear Doors: With Rush active, open the doors into the restricted area.
3. Mark the Lead Guard: Place a motion sensor on his back as he walks by. This will keep you aware of his location at all times.

Phase 2: Upstairs Sweep

4. Enter Lieutenant’s Office: Use rush to slip past guards. Look for the lieutenant’s desk and collect cash and the car keys.
5. Captain’s Office: Place the donut on his desk to bait him out. Once he leaves, loot the safe and hack his terminal.
6. Hack the Terminal: Progress will halt partway; you must retrieve Jeremy’s fingerprints to continue.

Phase 3: Fingerprints & Listening Devices

7. Find Jeremy’s Desk: Look for Jeremiah Benton’s desk. Use the coffee cup to collect prints.
8. Locker Room Entry: Use a QR code from a phone to enter the locker room.
9. Loot Lockers: Search all lockers for loot and scan for hidden evidence.
10. Plant Listening Devices: One in the locker, one in the lieutenant’s office, and one on the lieutenant’s car outside (license plate: CZN 1033).

Phase 4: Evidence Room Entry

11. Use Fingerprints for Entry: Return to the evidence room and use prints to unlock it.
12. Hack Cameras: Disable both cameras inside the evidence area.
13. Grab All Loot: Prioritize crack, rare elements, and other high-value items. Use your perk to carry two bags.

Phase 5: Transporting the Loot

14. Access Side Compartment: Open the wall compartment to pass loot through.
15. Don’t Use Button Early: Only activate the button to open the chute when it’s safe.
16. Escort Loot Through the Parking Lot: If RNG gives you the van in the parking lot, sneak the bags through a side exit. Avoid guards and cameras using rush and timing.

Phase 6: Final Sweep & Escape

17. Final Bags: Repeat trips to grab remaining bags. Use back routes and direct car park access to minimize detection.
18. Exit: Once all loot is loaded, head to the manhole cover outside to make your getaway.
