Complete GTA 5 Los Santos Drug Wars Mission: Make War Not Love
In the latest GTA Online update, the Los Santos Drug Wars have arrived and Drax and his crew have moved into Trevor’s Old Market and are in the process of taking over. The fifth LS Drug Wars mission is Make War Not Love, where you will need to take down the hippies who are cooking acid in their tents and destroy three vehicles, as well as take down a chopper, all solo and with low rank weapons and transport. In this walkthrough, we will guide you through the mission step by step.
Before you begin, make sure you have full snacks, full armor, a heavy automatic, a grenade launcher, hand grenades, sticky bombs, and a fast off-roader or an armed vehicle such as the Dragger Night Shark or Insurgent Custom, if possible. If not, a standard open four-wheel drive will suffice.
Starting the Mission
Join the public, invite-only or crew lobby in GTA Online and head over to the D on the map for Drax or to the Freakshop marker. If he hasn’t called you yet, you’ll spot the Starter Runner in the yard in front of the warehouse. You’ll be dropped straight into the mission. Head to your vehicle and jump in.
Attacking the Acid Lab
Make your way to the hippie camp and pull up just outside the camp. Your objective is to take out the tents containing the acid lab equipment while the Drax crew distracts the AI enemies. Make your way around the outside of the camp, taking out anyone you can along the way, and make your way to the tents marked on the minimap. Be sure to avoid shooting the surfer customs or VW combies. Look for the door of each tent and lob a grenade in, then get clear. If that doesn’t work, shoot the gas canister. After clearing all of the tents, jump in any of the hippie vans and drive it back to your personal vehicle.
Destroying the Vehicles
You’ll notice three new markers on your map: two stationary and one moving. Look for the one that’s moving and set a marker to where you think it’ll be in a minute or two. A few hippies will be chasing you in a Weevil, but don’t worry about them at this point. When you spot the Surfer Custom van, get as close as you can and start lobbing sticky bombs at it. It might take a few tries, but it’s not too challenging. Head to the next closest van and take it out, then the final one. If the Weevil is still on your tail, take care of them too.
Taking down the Chopper and Ending the Mission
Dax will direct you to the Altruist camp in the mountains. Pull up a little ways down from the gate and jump out. Pull up out the front and take out the cultist in the guard tower. Make your way up the drive and take out the first van, then make your way through the gate. Don’t try to take cover behind the gate, it’s useless. Peg anyone you spot along the way. You’ll get a bit of resistance but the mission becomes much easier as you get to the back corner. When you see the water tower, take a shot or two with a grenade launcher to hit the next target, then work your way along the fence line and cliff side until you reach the stairs at the back of the main building. Head up, onto the roof, and take a plum shot at the chopper. The pilot is your main target, but if that’s not practical, take out the tail rotor. You may or may not need to take out the gunners. Once the chopper is down, head out and skedaddle. Jump off the back of the building if you’re good with a parachute, or make your way along the fence line and back through the gate to your car. The mission will finalize itself and drop you back into the lobby.
At the end of the mission, you’ll receive $50,000, in addition to the regular mission pay. This may be a first-time completion bonus during launch week, so watch for additional updates and recaps of the Los Santos Drug Wars Drip Feed updates.
