These are guides for several of the trophies in Payday 2. These were recorded on PS3 when the game initially launched, but the trophies remain the same on the PS4 Payday 2 Crimewave Edition.

I’m Going All-In
In the Nightclub job, put a bag filled with money on the poker table

You will need to steal a bag of money from the second floor office of the nightclub. Before heading out, go to the room behind the kitchen and trhow the money on the table

F in Chemistry
On day 1 of the Rat job, blow up the lab

At the beginning of the Rat job, you will come upon a meth lab (think Breaking Bad) and you will be given verbal instructions how to cook the meth.  Just simply mix ingredients not to the instructions to blow up the lab.

Coming in Hot
On day 1 of the Watchdogs job, don’t let the cops shoot and destroy the escape vehicle.

Fairly simple. After loading the trucks with the bags, an escape vehicle will come to pick you up. You’ll have some time before the vehicle arrives so just clear as much of the main street intersection as you can and make it to the vehicle before it gets destroyed

Fish A.I
On day 2 of the Watchdogs job, throw a loot bag into the sea, hoping fish move away as it gets near

A nice little jab at Call of Duty Ghosts here. Very easy. On the second day of the Watchdogs job, grab the bag and run to the waterfront and toss it into the water. That’s all.

Shoot the Glass!
In the Mallcrasher job, destory all windows in the mall

Make sure you have ammo bags with you on a Mallcrasher job. You need to shoot all the glass windows. You don’t need to shoot the glass in the doors or small railing pieces on the second floor as shown in the video, but you will need to shoot the glass above doors and the windows to each store as well as the ceiling.

Lord of War
On day 1 of the Firestarter job, steal all the weapons from the hanger

This is much easier with multiple players as moving the weapon bags is extremely slow. But I do this solo in the video. You need to find all the weapons in the hangars and bag them up and take them back to your vehicle.

You will only need a a small number of them to complete the mission, but you will need to steal all of them to get the trophy. In each of the hangers, you will also need to break into the back of two trucks which will require a Saw preferably, or a drill if you don’t have the Saw.

I got it, I got it!
Catch a bag in mid-air

You just need to look into the air while holding a bag and press L2 to throw.  As it’s falling, hit R2 to catch it. It’s all timing.

Diamonds are Forever
In the Jewelry store job, steal and secure 4 bags without the escape car leaving the first time

You’ll need to steal the 4 bags of jewelry without the cops being called. If they are called, the van will leave in roughly 30 seconds. The van will come back to a  new location, but it will negate the possibility of earning this trophy.

With at least 2 players, you can run in and grab the bags and make it back to the van without it leaving.

To do it solo, you’ll need to be stealthy, tie people up, jam etc. The video below is me doing it solo.

King of the Hill
In the Park escape, ensure that no law enforcement enters the park before the escape van arrives

Randomly, between missions, you will get a Park Escape mission. You can increase the chances of getting this mission by doing the jewelry store job and killing civilians while still capturing 4 bags.

This is easiest with more players, but can be done solo. Take your bags and move them into the corner of the street and make your defense there. No law enforcement will enter the park as long as you stay there.

IF you start this mission and your van is crashed into a wall, law enforcement will spawn in the park so if this is the case, you’ll have to restart.

Let’s Do Th…
In the Ukranian job, complete the heist within 35 seconds

You’re going to need the Shaped Charged Ace and Endurace and Sprinter Ace. As soon as the job starts, put on the mask and sprint to the back rooms. There are two rooms and you’ll have to blow the safe to get the Tiara so you have a 50% chance of picking the correct safe. If you have two players, you can each take a safe. Grab the Tiara and escape within 35 seconds to get the trophy.

I knew what I did was wrong
On day 1 of the Big Oil Job, enter the basement, open the ATM machines and take the loot

You’ll need to have the OVE9000 Saw for this, and ammo bags as well. When the job starts, make your way into the basement and you’ll see 8 ATM’s. Be efficient with your sawing and move quickly and you should be able to open the ATM’s before getting much flak. Keep your eye open for anyone entering the basement, especially around your 7th or 8th one.

I wasn’t even there
On day 3 of the Framing Frame job, send the gold by zip-line without ever tripping the alarm

You’ll want the Smooth Talker skill and a other players with you. It can be done solo as I show in the video below, however, with a patch, they removed the ability to dominate all the guards.

To get this trophy, you want to kill or disable the 5 guards and the 5 cameras. After that, you’ll need to find 5 objects scattered around the home and then take them back to the roof once you found them all. At this point, you’ll need to find the bookcase where the safe is hidden.

Two bookcases are on the lower level. One in the bedroom and one in the dining room. The other one is in a hallway near the kitchen on the tops floor. It’ll be in one of those locations.  If the bookcase is in the bedroom, you won’t be able to solo this.

After finding the vault, you’ll need to move all the bags to the roof but there will be lasers in front of the vault. Ideally, in Co-Op, the second player turns off the lasers with the laptop giving another player 15 seconds to take out bags before the lasers reappear. If done solo, you’ll have to turn off the lasers and then sprint to the vault and remove 1 bag before the lasers turn back on. If you’re playing solo, you’ll need the Sprinter Ace and Cat Burglar Ace.
