man doing the terra velasquez missions is pain.. super hard the hists . but the thefts are a bit more easy . its a shame you have to do 12 missions and ont only 1 or the other
Yep, I don't regret knocking those off before they started making the Techs obsessed with closing the containers. Then again, if the unlock reqs actually worked you should be able to do it with just thefts which are much easier.
Well, when it's almost completely open i just plant meself in front of the container.
Then i nick it, raise shields and i leg it out at full speed. Apex or the Ship are already on the pad waiting for me.
The natives remain behind, voicing their concerns and waving their weapons, but who cares?
And that counts as covert?Well, when it's almost completely open i just plant meself in front of the container.

Yes, I covertly opened the container
On a more serious note, covert seem to mean "dont trigger the alarms"
And the only way to do that is to disable the alarms. So covert is a misnomer no matter how you look at it.
My first Covert: Heist and the guards saw or heard me cloning a level 3 through a window then I ran away! There were 2 guards protecting this building and a lot more than my Covert: Theft missions. Maybe I'll unlock Terra in a year.
If anyone is interested here what a scope on a Karma L-6 looks like. I kind of like it if I don't use stowed reloading with only 3 rounds then reload anyway. The magnification isn't the scope but the entire screen when aiming through it. So that's how the Devs do it. I tried a scope on the Tormentor but it didn't magnify as much as the L-6.
With greater range at 450m I fired at my Asp Explorer with a class 3 shield at 440m. It took 4 seconds each for the 3 rounds to hit which took the shield down. With my other Asp Explorer with class 6 prismatics maybe only lose 1 shield ring. Not all that useful but fun to try out.
On the Tormentor note the green dots show the aiming point where the rounds will hit.

So if you shut off the alarms, don't kill anybody, even though they saw you take it and run, it still counts as a completed mission?Yes, I covertly opened the container

Yes.
Covert means Not Triggering the Alarms. So if you turn off the alarms, no matter what you do, it will count as completed
There are missions that require you not to harm anyone, but it's not the case with the Covert missions
Edit: it's a bit of misnomer since you Have to turn off the alarms else they will trigger anyway when you open containers, so seen or not, you'll still fail the missions if the alarms triggers
Thanks for the clarification.
