Hey, someone on the forums pointed out to me that weed was 37.50%, after filling bag with 1 money stack (25%) i was able to grab 2 full weed stacks so 75% :2 = 37.50

I received 148.580 for 1 full weed stack and 290.300 for 2 other full stacks.
Dont know if the money numbers makes sense but it's definitely 37.50%

Hope you can update, good guide otherwise. :steamthumbsup:

Nice and no nonsense guide.
I would lose the spoiler tags, though as they might not really be considered spoilers (?). Makes reading the guide a little easier.
I would also add that, for solo runs at least, going for a full bag of cash while going for the bonus is potentially more efficient than trying to find just paintings or cocaine while possibly forfeiting the bonus.
My quickest solo-runs take about 8-9 minutes but if I'm unlucky with secondary locations, they might take up to 14 minutes, leaving very little time to look for specific loot.
Do mind, I only scope for the main target and hope for (good) loot on my way to the main dock as that's quicker than scoping the entire island every time. I usually end up with an average of 1.5M.

TLDR: cash plus bonus is (avg.) 450k, cocaine with no bonus is 440k. Grab the most lucrative loot you find but don't go out of your way trying to find it.

So helpful, thank you. I tried looking online for information about the Cayo Perico Heist, but it was too detail-heavy and didn't get to the point like this did! :steamhappy:
