Section 01
The brief
Half of mission deaths are inventory problems: empty armor, no snacks, and a wasted respawn.
- Armor and snacks are the cheapest survivability you can buy
- Both cap, so restocking is a routine, not a decision
- Running out mid-heist costs far more than the restock
Section 02
Recommended route
Open the interaction menu before every launch and top off super-heavy armor, snacks, and ammo in one pass.
- Restock armor and snacks at the start of every session
- Keep the fast-acting snack in the quick slot
- Buy in bulk from any convenience store or your property
Section 03
What good looks like
The ten-second ritual becomes automatic, and your failure rate drops without touching your loadout.
- Never entering a finale short on supplies
