# Bank Truck

> Learn how Bank Truck Delivery and Convoy jobs work, including requirements, equipment, GPS tracking, guards, thermite, and Tier 2–3 criminal progression.

Bank Truck jobs introduce two different criminal opportunities:

* **Delivery** — a Tier 2 job focused on locating and accessing a bank truck
* **Convoy** — a more dangerous Tier 3-scale heist involving armed security, tracking, thermite, and a secured safe

Both jobs begin through the same criminal system, but the **Convoy** represents a significant increase in risk and difficulty.

# Available Jobs

| **Job Type**       | **Police Required** | **Timer**                      | **Payout Scale** |
| ------------------ | :-----------------: | ------------------------------ | ---------------- |
| **Delivery**       |          2          | GPS appears within 2–5 minutes | Tier 2           |
| **Convoy / Heist** |          3          | 25 minutes until reset         | Mid Tier 3       |

<Info>
  ### Two Different Experiences

  The **Delivery** is the simpler option and sits within Tier 2 progression.

  The **Convoy** is a much more involved operation with stronger resistance, additional equipment requirements, and a higher reward scale.
</Info>

# Getting Started

Both Bank Truck opportunities begin with an:

## Advanced Laptop

    </Frame>

    <Warning>
      The **Advanced Laptop is consumed after the initial entry into the system**.
    </Warning>
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

Using the laptop begins a hacking minigame that allows you to access the Bank Truck system.

***

## Randomized Hacking

Don't expect to memorize one minigame and repeat it forever.

The hacking system uses a **randomized minigame**, meaning the challenge may be different each time you attempt to access the system.

<Info>
  ### Stay Ready

  The purpose of the randomized hacking system is to keep the activity from becoming a memorized mechanical loop.

  Pay attention to the challenge you're given each time.
</Info>

# Delivery Requirements

The Delivery job is the simpler of the two Bank Truck opportunities.

You'll need:

<Info>
  ### Delivery Quick Reference

  **Crime Scale:** Tier 2<br />**Police Required:** 2<br />**Primary Equipment:** Advanced Laptop + Lockpicks<br />**GPS Delay:** Approximately 2–5 minutes
</Info>

The Delivery job is intentionally more straightforward than the Convoy, so this guide focuses primarily on the larger heist.

# Convoy Requirements

The Convoy is where things become significantly more dangerous.

You'll need to prepare for:

* Armed guards
* Multiple stages
* GPS tracking
* Thermite entry
* A secured truck
* A combination-protected safe

# Step 1 — Head to the Initial Location

After successfully accessing the job, make your way toward the location provided by the system.

<Tip>
  ### Keep the Laptop Available

  You'll need the laptop to properly identify the target.

  Without it, you may reach the general area without recognizing exactly what you're looking for.
</Tip>

</Frame>

***

# Step 2 — Recover the GPS Device

At the initial location, you'll encounter a guard connected to the convoy.

The guard may attempt to flee.

Once the encounter is resolved, **search the guard**.

</Frame>

You're looking for the:

## GPS Device

<Info>
  The GPS Device is an important mission item.

  Without it, you won't be able to properly locate the armored truck.
</Info>

***

# Step 3 — Use the GPS

Once you've recovered the GPS Device, use it.

The device will begin tracking the target and provide the location of the armored truck.

<Frame>

</Frame>

<Tip>
  Use the time before reaching the truck to make sure your crew is actually prepared.

  Once you engage the convoy, expect resistance.
</Tip>

***

# Step 4 — Intercept the Convoy

The armored truck is not traveling alone and unprotected.

Expect an armed:

* Driver
* Passenger / security guard

Both may engage your crew when the convoy is attacked.

<Frame>
  <img alt="Armed guards protecting the Bank Truck Convoy" title="Convoy Guards" src="https://mintcdn.com/equinox-roleplay/CiIkUpF4PYUOFlPM/images/killed.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=CiIkUpF4PYUOFlPM&q=85&s=aa9f5c18e2f75feebe2c2cc8b115b9f5" className="dark:hidden" width="388" height="276" data-path="images/killed.png" />

</Frame>

<Warning>
  ### Armed Security

  Convoy guards may carry high-powered weapons.

  Treat the security detail as a serious threat rather than ordinary NPC resistance.
</Warning>

***

# Step 5 — Breach the Rear Door

Once the immediate security threat has been handled, move toward the **rear of the armored truck**.

Place your Thermite at the designated interaction point.

<Frame>
  <img alt="Placing Thermite on the rear of the armored Bank Truck" title="Thermite Breach" src="https://mintcdn.com/equinox-roleplay/WoXKKjdXBcDbKDdI/images/image-20.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=WoXKKjdXBcDbKDdI&q=85&s=3c79fe4093d6db186d17764a21ffa32b" className="dark:hidden" width="215" height="247" data-path="images/image-20.png" />

  <img alt="Placing Thermite on the rear of the armored Bank Truck" title="Thermite Breach" src="https://mintcdn.com/equinox-roleplay/WoXKKjdXBcDbKDdI/images/image-20.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=WoXKKjdXBcDbKDdI&q=85&s=3c79fe4093d6db186d17764a21ffa32b" className="hidden dark:block" width="215" height="247" data-path="images/image-20.png" />
</Frame>

The breach is **not immediate**.

You'll need to wait for the Thermite sequence to finish.

And you're not done fighting yet.

***

# Step 6 — Reinforcements

After the Thermite is placed and the breach progresses, **two additional heavy armored guards** will exit.

These guards are heavily armed and will aggressively defend the truck.

<Warning>
  ### Second Security Wave

  Expect **2 additional armored and armed guards** after beginning the breach.

  Do not assume the area is secure just because the original driver and passenger have been dealt with.
</Warning>

Once the additional guards are down, search their bodies.

One of them may have something extremely important:

## The Safe Combination

***

# Step 7 — Recover the Combination

Search the security guards until you locate the combination for the secured safe.

<Info>
  ### Don't Skip the Bodies

  The safe combination is obtained from the guards associated with the convoy.

  If you immediately rush toward the truck without searching them, you're going to be missing something important.
</Info>

Once you have the combination, return to the rear of the armored truck.

***

# Step 8 — Loot the Truck

With the rear compartment breached and the safe combination recovered, you can begin collecting the rewards.

There are two main objectives:

### Truck Compartment

Loot the accessible contents from the rear of the armored truck.

### Secured Safe

Use the recovered combination to access the additional secured loot.

<Tip>
  Don't spend so much time celebrating that you forget what kind of scene you're standing in.

  A bank truck heist tends to attract attention.
</Tip>

***

# Police Response

The Convoy is a major armed criminal event and requires at least **3 police officers** to be available.

Law enforcement may respond while you're still completing the job or shortly afterward.

<Info>
  ### Give the Scene Room to Develop

  Police involvement doesn't automatically mean the scene needs to become a shootout.

  A pursuit, standoff, negotiation, escape attempt, or investigation can all develop depending on how the situation unfolds.
</Info>

Under normal circumstances, officers should have an opportunity to engage with the scene before gunfire becomes the default response.

However, threatening behavior changes that situation.

<Warning>
  ### Escalation Has Consequences

  Aiming a firearm at an officer, advancing on officers with a weapon, firing at police, or otherwise presenting an immediate deadly threat can result in officers responding with deadly force.

  Do not assume law enforcement must give you an unlimited opportunity to escape regardless of your actions.
</Warning>

If you're trying to get away:

**Get away.**

If you choose to turn the scene into a gunfight:

**Expect the scene to respond accordingly.**

# Convoy Quick Reference

<Info>
  ### What You Need

  **Before Starting**

  * Advanced Laptop
  * Thermite
  * Appropriate weapons
  * A crew capable of handling the job

  **During the Mission**

  * Recover the GPS Device
  * Locate the truck
  * Deal with armed security
  * Thermite the rear compartment
  * Survive the reinforcement wave
  * Search for the safe combination
  * Loot the truck and safe
  * Escape the police response
</Info>

***

# This Is a Major Step Up

The Convoy represents a noticeable jump from entry-level crime.

You're dealing with:

* Multiple objectives
* Randomized hacking
* Mission-specific equipment
* Armed guards
* Reinforcements
* A secured safe
* Increased police requirements
* Tier 3-scale rewards

<Note>
  Higher-tier crime should feel more dangerous.

  The larger payout comes with more opportunities for the job to go wrong.
</Note>

***

<Info>
  ### The payout is only one part of the heist.

  The escape, police response, mistakes, injuries, arrests, investigations, and consequences can create just as much roleplay as successfully opening the safe.
</Info>
