First Dose 1 – Welcome to the Troupe Mission Brief
Ron Jakowski asks you to take care of an unknown gang that took over Ace Liquor after Trevor Philips’ departure. Upon de-escalating the situation, the Lost MC reignited the hostility, which pushed the rest of the new gang to relocate.
Recommendations:
- For beginners, we suggest using the Heavy Revolver for easy body shots. Otherwise, perform headshots using the Pistol.
- Don’t panic. Enemies can’t breach the Ace Liquor store.
- Bring lots of Snack and Armor.
- Take cover.
Take Out the Lost MC
The Lost Motorcycle Club will surround the Ace Liquor. Despite all key gang members being introduced, they won’t take damage.
Check all sides and eliminate enemies.
Some Lost MC members may enter the shop, but you can take them out easily.
Go to Dax
Assuming you’re outside the shop, head to the topmost floor to find Dax.
He’ll tell you about his relocation plans, but recovering the Journey II is a priority.
Leave the building.
Recover Dax’s Stolen Journey
First, go to this side of the map to find a boat.
If you’re a player replaying Welcome to the Troupe for fun, you may use your Oppressor Mk II.
Otherwise, enter the boat and drive to the Alamo Sea. You’ll end up in an abandoned marina, where the Lost MC members will spawn.
Before retrieving Journey II, we highly suggest eliminating all enemies first.
Once the site is cleared, enter the vehicle. You may ignore some gang members respawning from the dirt road riding a motorbike and the warehouse nearby.
Pick Up Dax From Liquor Ace
Return to Liquor Ace and follow this GPS route:
Hostiles will appear in motorcycles, attempting to stop you. Use your gun and eliminate them.
Enter the yellow corona to pick up Dax.
Take Dax to the Abandoned Warehouse
Go to this location:
Just follow the GPS route, but make sure the Journey II takes minimal damage. Watch out for the health meter on the right side.
Enemies will also spawn, so take them out.
Entering the yellow corona at the abandoned warehouse (The Freakshop) will conclude Welcome to the Troupe in GTA Online.
