However in Four Stores the it is suggested to open the ATM in the 24/7 as you can hide behind the door of the ATM with enough cash from the ATM alone while you wait for the Van, meaning you can make a clean getaway before the cops show up as civilians will not find the open ATM suspicious." This one is a hit on the Teuer Dealership, high class joint." -Bain offering the heist Generally, you wouldn't want to waste a Jammer on an ATM, but if the mission has already gone to hell and you brought one along, you may as well get some extra cash with it. This way you have the ability to kill cameras and cell phones without giving civilians a chance to run away and call the cops, buying you a few precious seconds at the beginning of a mission.ĮCM Jammers can also be used to bypass doors requiring an electronic keycard, or used to open ATMs. You can also use an ECM to bypass any lock that requires a keycard, though this will consume your ECM.Īs you level up the ECM Jammer via skill points in the Ghost skill tree, you can also give it an alternate mode where it can incapacitate any enemy within its radius as well as shut down electronics. Remember that the ECM's pulse travels through walls, so you don't need to get into a security room to shut it down.

It's best to place the ECM Jammer near the security room, if you place it at all.

If you're in a place with a security room (such as any of the Bank Heist missions), and your ECM Jammer doesn't affect the guard in it, then he'll call out when sees a camera go down. You'll want to be a little careful with the Jammer depending on the mission. If you take down a guard, then place the jammer, you'll need to interact with the body immediately as usual. Further, once the Jammer finishes working, the pager will become active again, and you'll have to interact with the guard's corpse as normal or the police will be alerted. The Jammer also shuts down the pagers of downed guards if you placed it before shooting the guard. This can be used to great effect in the Jewelry Store heist, as you can place a Jammer, smash-and-grab, and escape in under a minute without having the cops alerted to your actions. This is most prominent in cell phones, which can delay the police response time since no one can call out unless they run away. The Jammer shuts down all electronic devices in its radius. If you're not carrying a loot bag, press and hold the G key while aiming where you want, and it will be deployed and turned on. The ECM Jammer can be attached to any vertical or horizontal surface. By default, you only get one jammer, but additional skill points can be spent on increasing the number of its charges, the size of its range, or its duration. To unlock the ECM Jammer, spend a skill point in the Ghost skill tree.
