Complete the Bank Heist: Cash job in Payday 2 by setting up the thermal drill, securing cash from the vault or deposit boxes, and reaching the escape van.

Optional Weapon: Buzz saw (requires reputation level 30 to unlock).

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Go to the bank's parking lot to retrieve the drill. You must put your mask on to grab it.
  2. 2
    Enter the bank through the side door near the parking lot entrance to avoid cameras.
  3. 3
    Set up the thermal drill (a device that drills through obstacles) inside the bank.
  4. 4
    Wait for the drill to finish. While waiting, collect loose cash from the teller room.
  5. 5
    Enter the vault. Sometimes there is a second gated door inside the vault that also needs drilling.
  6. 6
    Collect the required amount of cash, which can be on a table inside the vault or within deposit boxes. If you have the Buzzsaw, ATMs provide sufficient cash.
  7. 7
    Once the objective is complete, run to the escape van.

Van Locations: The van can appear in three locations: in front of the main entrance to the bank's parking lot, directly in front of the bank's main entrance, or further away near a T-junction to the right of the bank's main entrance.

Cops: Law enforcement can appear from various directions, including the bank's parking lot. Snipers may be positioned in the building opposite the bank or on the roof of the building to the right of the bank.

Note: On difficulties higher than normal, a security room will be present. Taking out the guard inside is highly recommended, especially for stealth runs.

Tips
  • Use the side door near the parking lot to avoid cameras when entering the bank.
  • If you have the Buzzsaw (unlocked at reputation level 30), ATMs are a good source of cash.
  • Consider stealth by neutralizing the guard in the security room on higher difficulties.
