Before you begin, it is a good idea to check the market value of cocaine on the “Y” menu to ensure that you can maximize your profits. It is also recommended that you bring at least 3 food and water items to sustain yourself for the duration of the run. You will want to begin this criminal venture by purchasing or retrieving a truck from the garage located directly east of Agios Dionysios (DP13). From here you will travel west into the town and then head directly north to the cocaine field. Once you arrive you will notice that the field is in an open field with some large rocks staggered around the collection point. These rocks will come in handy if you encounter other rebels or the Altis Police Department, who will stop your run if you lose to them. Since the area is so exposed you will definitely want to keep your wits about you and carefully listen for any approaching vehicles or helicopters. The field is far from the beaten path so you can safely assume anyone heard travelling through the area is on their way to you. Once you have harvested the desired amount of unprocessed cocaine, you will head south towards the cocaine processor. Alternatively, you can also venture off to the east towards the cocaine Black Market where you will be able to capture the market for your gang in order to process there instead. While safer, using the black market will cause a percentage of your unprocessed product to be lost and you will not be able to double process due to the rudimentary processing equipment.

To interact with the drug dealer, simply scroll wheel and double click the amount of drugs you have in your inventory to select all of the black/pure heroin in your inventory, and click sell. Once you are done, deposit your money in the nearby ATM at the town center or in the nearby city before carrying on.

Introduction

Cocaine is another of the illegal runs on Altis. It is also one of the easiest illegal items to run when you are first becoming financially stable enough to be able to afford armaments to protect yourself and large enough vehicles to increase your profits.

Starting the Run

Before you begin, it is a good idea to check the market value of cocaine on the “Y” menu to ensure that you can maximize your profits. It is also recommended that you bring at least 3 food and water items to sustain yourself for the duration of the run. You will want to begin this criminal venture by purchasing or retrieving a truck from the garage located directly east of Agios Dionysios (DP13). From here you will travel west into the town and then head directly north to the cocaine field. Once you arrive you will notice that the field is in an open field with some large rocks staggered around the collection point. These rocks will come in handy if you encounter other rebels or the Altis Police Department, who will stop your run if you lose to them. Since the area is so exposed you will definitely want to keep your wits about you and carefully listen for any approaching vehicles or helicopters. The field is far from the beaten path so you can safely assume anyone heard traveling through the area is on their way to you. Once you have harvested the desired amount of unprocessed cocaine, you will head south towards the cocaine processor. Alternatively, you can also venture off to the east towards the cocaine Black Market where you will be able to capture the market for your gang in order to process there instead. While safer, using the black market will cause a percentage of your unprocessed product to be lost and you will not be able to double process due to the rudimentary processing equipment.

Processing Cocaine

Once you arrive at the cocaine processor you will see that it is housed in a large shed with minimal cover inside. The outside of the processor is flanked on one side by a large rock formation but you will need to be alert in case you are discovered. Once you are settled in and feel secure, you must now take the unprocessed cocaine to the NPC residing inside the shed. If it is your first time processing cocaine, you will need to buy a Cocaine Processing license ($30,000) at the NPC in order to process. Be sure to sync your new license by hitting ESC. Fortunately, there is a bonus for processing that will incrementally give you faster progress as you process more coke.

Processing Crack Cocaine

After you finish processing you will notice that there is an option to “double process” your cocaine into crack cocaine. This will take more time but you will have the processing bonus bar from any bonus received for processing unprocessed cocaine into crack cocaine. Crack cocaine will give you a significant increase in profit upon selling (x1.25 current price) so if you believe yourself prepared to double your processing time it will be well worth it.

Selling

After you are done processing, it is best to leave the processor as quickly as possible and begin your way towards the Neochori drug dealer. Once you are within a reasonable distance, it is also recommended that you try to scope the area out from a distance to ensure nobody is camping the dealer or already using it to sell drugs before you arrive. To interact with the drug dealer, simply use the scroll wheel and double click the number of drugs you have in your inventory to select all of the black/pure heroin in your inventory, and click sell. Once you are done, deposit your money in the nearby ATM at the town center or in the nearby city before carrying on.

Payout

The average payout for a cocaine run using a box truck and a bergen backpack (210 cocaine) is $678,300 for processed cocaine and $847,980 for crack. If your gang is in control of the cartel, it will allow you to hold onto 15% more of the profits, which is otherwise paid as gang tax to the controlling gang.

Run Time

Using a tier 4 box truck, the run took 30 minutes and 16 seconds. The alternate route posted above will be 31 minutes. If one was to double process it would take 40-45 minutes.
