Meth

SPOILER_unknown.png

What is Meth?

Methamphetamine, known on the streets as 'Meth,' is a powerful drug in the city of Los Santos that drives locals and players alike wild. 

How is Meth obtained?

In the city, Meth can be obtained in two ways; creating your own meth, or buying it from someone else.

What can I do with it?

In the city, Meth can be used to sell to the locals as well as other players in the city. 

Local Selling Meth

Selling Meth is a very complex topic, and the main concern comes to 'how much will it sell for?' As there are multiple factors going into it, some factors to consider in the price of your sale would be the following;

  • Amount of PD online 
  • Quality of Meth
  • Group Perks
Cooking Meth

Cooking your very own meth can be a very risky venture in the city, but could lead to potentially promising rewards. In order to cook your own meth, you will need the following;

  • Cooking Apparatus 
  • Cooking Supplies
  • Personal Protection Equipment
  • An applicable vehicle
The Math

When cooking your own meth, there is a specific calculation that determines both the quality of meth you receive, and the quantity of meth you receive.

When you finish a cook, your cook is scored on a scale from 0-125 based on how good of a cook you are and how good of a recipe you used. In order to determine the number of trays you receive from a cook, the formula of Cook Score / 33.0 as well as the following table is employed;

Cook Score Quantity of Trays
33-65 1
66-98 2
99-125 3

Note: If you don't have a specific recipe to create 3 trays, then scoring 99-125 will still give you 2 trays.

However, there is one group perk that can make cooking easier, called 'Let Him Cook.' This group perk also employs a tiny bit of math as it will recalculate the score you need for a specific amount of trays. After a cook, and if you have any of the 3 tiers to the perk, you can expect the following;

Perk Tier Cook Score Dividing Factor Quantity of Trays
I 31-61 31 1
I 62-92 31 2
I 93-124 31 3
I 124-125 31 4
Perk Tier Cook Score Dividing Factor Quantity of Trays
II 29-57 29 1
II 58-86 29 2
II 87-115 29 3
II 116-125 29 4
Perk Tier Cook Score Dividing Factor Quantity of Trays
III 27-53 27 1
III 54-80 27 2
III 81-107 27 3
III 108-125 27 4

Note: If you don't have a specific recipe to create 3 trays, then scoring 93 | 87 | 81 out of 125 will still give you 2 trays. Additionally, if you don't have a specific recipe to create 4 trays, then scoring 124 | 116  | 108 out of 125 will still give you 3 trays.

The Perfect Recipe

If you got confused looking at the tables regarding the cooking score and number of trays just above, your mind may continue to get unscrewed with 'The Perfect Recipe.' There is no mathematical way to calculate a perfect recipe in a given month, the numbers for recipes are randomly scrambled and new numbers are set to issue different tray quantities. However, the perfect recipe can be made a lot cheaper and a lot easier with the 'Let Him Cook' group perk. Finding the perfect recipe is all about trial and error.

Note: The longer you stay on green while cooking, the more likely you are to get cloudy!
