Guide oriented to a set of skills, weapons and equipment for assault heists that has given me the best results in gameplay and fun when playing PAYDAY 3.

I create this guide under my own experience and with the gameplay that I feel more comfortable for any difficulty.

.Annihilate the heretics among their ranks & support and supply your team.


We have located the heretic locations with our valuable resources, destroy them all and clean the corruption areas recovering our resources, the emperor has chosen you for this task.

Created under my experience in assault heists, a set to play aggressively and kill any enemy without any concern of armor and ammunition. Having 2 skill trees to choose from to adapt to the equipment of our companions and very versatile weapons to open to any risk.
This build has been created and revised from version: V1.0.0.0.790407





There is a total of 28 points, all obtained at level 100.

I have created 2 branches of skills mainly for the deployable, so I can adapt to the needs of the team in case they need more medical or armor resources.





I always recommend the using of a powerful weapon and a "lighter" one for this build, having one with fast reload to keep EDGE and GRIT constantly, I personally use the following weapons.

⠀·The WAR-45 is a very versatile submachine gun, being able to be used for both long and short distances perfectly, although thanks to its .45 ACP ammunition it will make it easier to kill armored heretics.
⠀· The FSA-12G is the terror of the heretics. A devastating semi-automatic shotgun that annihilates at short ranges and has a fairly fast loading speed for a primary weapon.
⠀· If the selection of any primary is not possible, the VF-7S / Scar is a good alternative.

⠀· The Bullkick 500 is a powerful hand cannon, capable of cleaving in two the heretics that cross your path, with sacred wobbling power and accuracy.
⠀· If its not possible to use the Bullkick 500, i suggest you the Stryk 7, even if its the pistol with less damage, it offers you good rate of fire, capacity and bullet picking.

To kill the Bulldozers I get to use the Overkill Weapon, carrying the HET-5 Red Fox, which eliminates these special enemies with a few shots, since with the base weapons it's hard to defeat them quickly and they do a lot of damage up close.


For this build to work at its best, Adaptive Armor Lining should be used, even if it has less damage reduction.




You can use one of both deployables, choose it according to your skills in order to support and supply your team. Personally I usually equip the deployable that is most scarce or missing.

I prefer the Flashbangs Grenades, it doesn't do damage but stun in a large radius and leave enemies vulnerable. They can be used as human shields.

I don't really use the tools much, but to defend bags, equipment or remote targets it is not bad to deploy the Infrasonic Mines.


I hope this guide has helped you in the game and you have a smoother and more enjoyable experience in Payday 3.

Kill all those heretics, FOR THE EMPEROR!

Can I note this would be easier to read the skill sets if you have the medic and armor sections seperate from the common skills they share? Thanks
