One of the four jobs you can take on for Jodi in the new Agents of Sabotage update in Grand Theft Auto Online is called "The Fine Art File." As you might have guessed, this job tasks you with stealing some artwork and selling it off to an interested buyer. The payout for the job is up to $183k and requires three set-up missions before you can take on the grand finale.
We have a complete, step-by-step walkthrough of The Fine Art File for you below so you can get that easy payout in GTA Online.
Secure EMP Charges
Your first mission in The Fine Art File is to find and steal some EMP Charges that will be used in the heist. These are located on the outskirts of Los Santos inside of a shipping container.
Once you accept the mission, drive toward the waypoint on your map, and you'll encounter several security enemies guarding the shipping container. Take them out and then go to the green shipping container that's lifted in the air by the white forklift. Shoot the tiny, tan block on the black lift that's holding the shipping container up. After that, the container will fall to the ground and you can enter it to find the EMP Charges.
Head back to the garment factory to accept your next mission in The Fine Art File.
Steal a Helicopter
Your next task is to go to a hangar in LSIA and steal a helicopter that will be used to gain access to the artwork's building for the heist. After you make your way to LSIA and the marked hangar, shoot any enemies outside the hangar and go up the stairs outside of it.
Inside the hangar, you'll be on walkways that overlook the ground floor. Before you can steal a helicopter on the ground, you must shoot out five security boxes. These are marked with red arrows above them and are located all across the walkways you're on. However, during this process, the enemies on the ground will likely be shooting at you, so try your best to avoid their gunfire.
Once all the boxes are shot, go to the ground and get inside any helicopter of your choosing. Then, press the move button to get out of the hangar.
You'll now be in the air and need to make your way to the chopper's designated drop point, which is located a few miles away and right near the garment factory. After you land the chopper, go to the factory for the next mission.
Scan a target using a Surveillance Drone
The last set-up mission for The Fine Art File requires you to steal a surveillance drone and use it to get a facial scan of a target. You first steal the drone from the trunk of a felon's car, which is located behind some apartments in Los Santos. There are enemies there, so take them out and then open the marked trunk to grab the drone.
With the drone, go to the new waypoint, which is a vantage point overlooking a hotel. Once you're at the vantage point, get out the drone and fly it straight ahead to the hotel. View the target in the red sweater talking to a woman on the first balcony above the lobby roof (as seen in the screenshot above). The target will be marked with a blue arrow. Get to a point with the drone where you can see his face and begin scanning it, making sure not to lose sight of his face.
Once the scan has been 100% completed, leave the area and go back to the garment factory for the big finale.
Fly the chopper and hack the door
Once you have accepted the final mission for The Fine Art File, you need to drive to the chopper's location and fly it to the Maze Bank West building. Land it on the roof and then try to silently take out the guard below the helipad.
You now have to hack into the building's door by going through an easy puzzle. The solution to the puzzle is in the screenshot above, but all you have to do is line up the lines of the circuit board so they're all connected from one side to the other.
After you solve the puzzle, you can go through the door and truly begin the heist.
Plant EMP Charges and locate the hidden room
Inside the building, you'll see a few security guards that you'll want to silently eliminate. Your main job here is to plant and detonate three EMP Charges on the electrical boxes that are marked on your HUD.
Once the charges are planted, go down the back stairs and detonate them, causing the lights to go out in the building. You'll now view everything in night vision. You can go through to a new area where you have to locate a switch to reveal a hidden room. The switch is located right near an end table on the wall opposite the kitchen (shown in the screenshot above).
Press the hidden switch on the wall and go through the hidden room in the kitchen.
Hack the security panel and steal the statue
Once you're through to the hidden room, you'll have to hack another security panel. This time, you have to match up two fingerprints with one shown on the right side of your screen. Rotate through all the fingerprint sections until you find the right one that matches the one on your screen.
You mainly have to worry about the middle sections of the fingerprint, as a lot of the choices can look the same. However, as long as you pay attention to the fingerprint on the right and try to match it accordingly, you should get through the door.
The next part of the mission is simple, as all you have to do is steal the tiki statue from a display case. You can also steal other pieces of art from surrounding cases, but you want to do this before you steal the tiki statue. If you try to steal them after the tiki statue, you won't have time.
Escape the gas and drive out of the garage
Right after you steal the tiki statue, gas will flood the art room, so get out of there as soon as possible. However, enemies will be waiting for you, so shoot them and make your way to the elevator near the tiger figurines to enter the garage.
In the garage, more enemies are waiting for you. Once they're eliminated, steal a car and drive up the ramp. A helicopter and nearly a dozen enemies are surrounding the exit, so try and get through them quickly otherwise, you'll likely be killed.
Deliver the tiki statue to the buyer
The final step of The Fine Art File is to travel a couple of miles and deliver the tiki statue to the buyer. Once you've done this, you'll wind up back at the garment factory. The maximum payout for this job is $183k, and you can complete these tasks to earn a bonus:
- Enter the penthouse undetected
- Flick the switch in 60 seconds
- Take all cabinet contents
