In this Payday 3 heist walkthrough, we’re tackling Touch the Sky fully stealth, in co-op with teammates. Expect a few hiccups along the way, but this guide covers all the key moves, tips, and strategies to complete the heist cleanly.

Phase 1: Infiltration & Disabling Security

Start by entering via the skylights. It’s best if each player drops into a different locked room, which allows you to skip phone code hunting early. Once inside, head toward the server room to disable alarms. If you get into the laser room early, use timing and communication to make it across while avoiding detection.

Disable cameras as soon as possible. One player should prioritize accessing the server room and getting the pressure plate/laser grid turned off, while another focuses on acquiring the phone codes to unlock exhibit rooms.

Phase 2: Opening Exhibit Rooms & Gathering Key Art

Find the Uma paintings first. You’ll place them in E4 and E7. These rooms can be unlocked via phones or skylight drops. Once placed, head to the server room to access the authenticator panel.

After unlocking E1, you’ll start capturing WiFi points in the exhibit rooms. Clear guards or distract them before activating. A motion sensor placed in key hallways helps with awareness. Once each point is captured, the next becomes available.

Avoid overcrowding the zones. Two teammates nearby or hugging counters prevents detection.

Phase 3: Extracting Target Artifacts

Once the right exhibits are opened and the authenticators are complete, you’ll move onto the Vicario paintings. These are placed in E5 and E6. Two of them are fakes, two are real. Use the USB scanner to identify the authentic ones and mark them.

Use team coordination to tag and secure the real paintings first. Then clear out the rest of the loot if you want to go for the bonus payout.

Phase 4: Bag Running & Escape

Guards patrol close to extraction, but the van area is relatively safe. One person can run bags solo, while others maintain stealth zones. Consider moving bags through windows or using the stairwell for cover.

Prioritize real art over bonus loot. Once all key objectives are secured, get to the van.

Bonus Tips:

• Place motion sensors near bottlenecks.
• Chuck bodies or bags off the roof if needed.
• Keep one player designated as the runner for maximum bag efficiency.
• Scan for guard paths before exposing bags or running routes.

This heist requires coordination and good communication, but once you have the route and timing down, it’s a solid stealth payday with tons of bonus loot potential.

Good luck out there!
