Under the Surphaze is a difficult stealth heist in which you must steal some rare paintings before making your escape in Payday 3.
“Under the Surphaze” is one of the longest and most difficult stealth heists to complete in Payday 3. You are going to find a good challenge even if you decide to do Under the Surphaze in Loud.
The job involves stealing paintings from the Surphaze Art Gallery while an exhibition is being hosted by crooked rich kids.
On top of being a multi-layered level, there are guards and cameras everywhere and each exhibition room can only be unlocked using a unique QR code.
Additionally, the deposit location is far from the heist building, meaning you need to take multiple trips each time you grab the items.
To successfully execute the art heist in Payday 3 right under the security’s noses, you need proper strategy and planning to ensure that you aren’t looping around the same corners of this huge Museum.How to complete Under the Surphaze in Stealth for Payday 3
The first thing that we recommend is gearing up using our best stealth build. This will give you the best skills as well as the best weapons to complete Under the Surphaze easily in Stealth for Payday 3.
Another thing we recommend is purchasing the zipline before starting the heist because the escape vehicle is parked pretty far away. Unless you are willing to spend an extra 30 minutes just moving the loot on top of a pretty time-consuming heist, the zipline is a better choice.
The last thing we would recommend is taking all the loot before making your escape in Under the Surphaze heist. There are three display cases in each Exhibition Room with additional loot in a secret safe as well as a secret painting to steal. Enter the Surphaze Museum
The Surphaze Art Museum has multiple entry points. We found that the quickest and most convenient way is to jump up the boxes at the riverfront and climb up the stairs.
On your way there, you can grab the zipline bag if you bought it in the menu, on your right near the bushes but mind the guards patrolling the area.
Using the glass cutter, open the window of the first floor that leads you directly to the Server Room. Wait for the guard to leave before you enter and mind the camera right next to it as well so you don’t get caught.
Once you are inside the next step to make the whole heist a lot easier for you is to disable the cameras.Disable the security cameras (optional)
The Surphaze Museum is littered with cameras which will make your movements restricted and make things harder especially in Stealth for Under the Surface in Payday 3.
Though it is an optional step, we highly recommend doing so which will require locating the Security Room and costs a pager for taking out the guard inside.
The Security Room will always be on the top floor but since the locations of rooms can interchange with each other, you will need to look around a bit to find it.
After you have found the room, you will need to take out the guard watching the cameras and then disable them using the computer.Disable the security bars
Before you can even begin the heisting part, you will have to get rid of some security parameters around the paintings set by the Museum. If you try to access them otherwise, the Security Bars will rise, blocking you from taking the paintings.
To disable the Security bars, especially for Stealth in Under the Surphaze in Payday 3, you will need to be vigilant and quick since the security checks will be all over the place.
There are two security checks in total, one on each floor which are not skippable so you need to grab both.
The monitor for disabling Security Bars on the top floor can be found between the E4 and E5 Exhibition rooms, mounted on the wall in the hallway next to an Advertisement board. The security check for the ground floor is also a monitor mounted on the wall and is next to the employees’ bathrooms on the red brick wall.
Once you activate the check, it is pretty much the same process you have already done for Touch the Sky and Gold & Shark heist while hacking the Wi-Fi systems.
A few white circles on the ground will pop up and you need to stand in to complete the check. It may sound simple enough but in order to not break Stealth, you will have your work cut out for you.
A few tips we can give you are to mark the guards so you can keep track of their movement. A personal one is to, abandon the circle if you need to and then come back to it later to complete it since risking the whole run is not worth doing it a few seconds quicker.
