We have ranked the best gadgets to equip in Payday 3 so that you know what to get for your Stealth or Loud builds.
Gadgets are more than accessories in Payday 3 as with the right tool in your hand you can make or break your heist runs.
All gadgets are classified under either of the three categories, throwables, deployables, and tools. The choice depends mostly on your build, preference, playstyle, and use case scenarios but some things are always better than others no matter what.
With each providing a unique experience, here is our ranking for the best gadgets in Payday 3.10. ECM Jammer
The ECM Jammer allows you to block out an enemy vision in the target site by temporarily slowing down cameras and radios. It is a useful tool for when you are in a pinch and need some time to make your escape.
The thing is that ECM Jammer hardly has its use because hacking into cameras and radios is pretty easy in Payday 3.
With the right skills, you can pretty much not use it at all but if you are at a low level or simply not invested in hacker-related skills then it is definitely a comfort choice for you.9. MicroCam
MicroCam is a small camera that you can mount pretty much anywhere to peek around corners or get a bird-eye view of the whole site. These extra eyes can even mark patrolling guards and make them visible through walls.
However, it suffers from the same problem as ECM Jammer where there are hackable cameras littered across the buildings during heists that you can access. It also has a small deploying distance, making it even more niche.
You will need to understand the ins and outs of a map first before you can make good use of it like by leaving it near a passcode instead of remembering it or using it in areas where there aren’t many cameras.8. Infrasonic Mine
Infrasonic Mine is a wide-ranged tool that releases a high-pitched sound when triggered, to stun the enemies that manage to step on it.
After placing it near entry points, just wait till enemies trigger it so you can make quick work of them while they are stunned.
The problem is that they can only be deployed at a fixed location and you are almost always on the move during a heist.
If you miss the opportunity to catch the enemy while they are still stunned, it will leave you open to enemy fire. It is great for targeting large groups and enemies but the setup is what makes them less viable.
