But hey, that's just me.[/QUOTE]Stealthing a job like Framing Frame is incredibly thrilling, the rush of being able to navigate around and avoid detection. I've talked before about how the hand dryers never summon more than a single guard, so I just don't deal with them. So I end up actually out on the floor, avoiding cameras and tracking guards until I can take them out. Its incredibly rewarding to be able to pull a job off without ever having to deal with the police and draw out gun fights.
[QUOTE=Causicus;42128338]So I stealthed all of framing frame solo with 8 paintings and 8 bags on overkill, I was on day 3 and I had taken out a lot of the cams, killed and intimidated all of the guards, planted the coke and opened the vault when I realized that [B]I would need a second guy in order to deactivate the vault lasers.[/B] I was waiting by the desktop pc in the senator's office for 20 minutes until somebody came on in order to help me out. Overall though it was a pretty good turnout considering it was the first time i've stealthed day 2.[/QUOTE]

On a serious note though, it's quite possible to do it solo, even when the Vault is on the bottom floor in the big room. I thought it would be impossible to do alone, turns out it ain't.

I can pretty much just get in and get a single bag on most locations before the lasers start beeping. Sometimes I have a little more time but hardly enough to get a second bag. For someone who isn't properly spec'd, it'd quite likely be impossible.

Yeah I know, but I gotta tell you, I am beyond thankful that I was specced with Maxed out stamina and the Cat burgler when I did the mission solo for the first time and the vault was at the bottom.

Who needs stealth when you have Mosconi
[QUOTE=Nemisis116;42129125]Who needs stealth when you have Mosconi[/QUOTE]
Saw off the barrels and stock, stealth Mosconi! The best of both worlds.
I think people really underestimate just how useful it is to be a Ghost. You get a lot of abilities to make you faster including running, bagging, and weapon swapping. You get the stealth bonuses. You get a 20% bonus to dodge chance by Tier 3 that actually makes you incredibly difficult to even hit let alone kill. I can run through heavy fire in an assault wave and never even have my armor breached thanks to it. Which is even nicer with the skill that decreases your chance of being targeted by 25%, you not only have a good chance to dodge, but that's if they even decide to start shooting at you.
Nine lives allows you get go down one extra time before going in to custody, and Aced you have a chance to just get back up on your own. There is the bonuses to silenced weapons which if all aced give a 30% increase in damage, 28% chance to pierce body armor, 50% reduction in recoil, and 50% increase in accuracy. Then there are the loot bonuses and the lockpicking bonuses, and the ECM jammer which can really help if you get the upgrade for it to open door, and even ECM Feedback at least has the potential to be something useful.
On its own its a really good class, its just one that is far less forgiving if you screw up. And if you're like me and dual spec'd in to Mastermind, you are a favorite with teammates for your ability to basically control an entire map in terms of civies, and your ability to get to keep teammates alive.

I wouldn't be surprised if Overkill patches the game to be like that.

I don't know what Ukrainian Job you're doing but when I do a Projob Overkill one, I only get 80-100k in spending cash.

At least the lubeless bowel grating that is Bulldozers would teach some people to coordinate more and aim for the head.

A lot of console players are worried we won't ever get the patches. Of course, getting rude on a personal Twitter account and just asking Overkill are two completely different things.

It's kinda problematic to update the console version so frequently as on PC.
So me and my jolly-gang of hamburglars decided to try overkill-pro-firestarter the other day.
Day one went without a hitch, day two went swimmingly, and day three..
We "stealthed" day three.
Two masterminds, two enforcers
Killed the bank manager (Goodbye 20,000$), took the card, shot jymal the camera-man, and then the rest was easy. Tied one guard, shot the other three, each of us got on a pager and then my buddy and I got on civilian-spooking. If they couldn't be tied down, they had to be.. [i]silenced.[/i]
