The best weapons in GTA Online
Although the basic pistol is correct it is better toquickly invest in a weapon such as an assault rifle or submachine gun. Indeed the flow of the weapon much more important than a handgun will make the phases of combat much easier. Once theADP de combat unlocked, it could be an interesting investment since it is a silent weapon, thus allowing you to be more comfortable during the infiltration phases. Note also that the acquisition ofa sniper rifle is never too much because it makes it easier to complete the assassination missions.

A little further in the game and with more money in your pocket, the rocket launcher and the sticky bombs can prove to be a significant additional asset. The first will indeed be formidable against most vehicles, land and air. Sticky bombs will be very useful during the pursuit phases, either to defend themselves by placing them on the road behind you or in front to destroy the vehicle being pursued, they are also used to force open doors during certain missions.

When approaching level 100 the purchase of a Widowmaker may prove to be an advantage. Despite the impossibility of taking cover, this weapon has formidable damage against all types of opponents, humans and machines.
Once unlocked the Widowmaker will be one of the most fearsome weapons in GTA Online.

The best vehicles in GTA Online
Vehicles are at the center of GTA 5. Whether it's for getting around or carrying out missions, a good car or motorcycle is essential. It is therefore important to choose your means of transport carefully. When starting out in Online mode, the cars to be favored will be those of sports categories. The Elegy RH8 can thus be obtained for free by registering on the Rockstar Social Club. For those wishing to invest the Invetero Coquette turns out to be good value for money. Motorcycle enthusiasts will be able to find their happiness on the side of the Pegassi Bati 801 or Nightblade for the wealthy.

With a little more money in your pocket, it is rather advisable to move towards super sports cars, offering more speed than sports cars. The Pegassi Zentorno will therefore be a good choice in this category, remaining relatively affordable for vehicles in this class while offering more than adequate performance. Invest in a Armored Karin Kuruma can also be very useful for missions. This armored vehicle thus offers more protection when the action begins or during the pursuit phases.

The last step will be the aerial vehicle. At this level the Attack Buzzard is undoubtedly the best choice. Offering a good speed/maneuverability ratio while being armed, it will prove particularly useful in all missions involving aerial vehicles. Only drawback, the helicopter is delivered to an airport (Los Santos or Grapespeed).
The Attack Buzzard is arguably the most interesting aerial vehicle to buy

The most profitable businesses in GTA Online
But there is no way to afford weapons or vehicles without the buildings and production sites that generate sufficient income. The first major building to be purchased will be the biker club HQ. Relatively affordable (about 200000 GTA$) it allows access to new missions but above all to unlock production sites. Five in number, these will be one of the simplest and most stable sources of income, only asking to carry out very accessible supply and sales missions. Own a garage will also be one of the first useful investments since it will make it possible to store several vehicles.
The biker club HQ is one of the most interesting investments
The second step will be the acquisition of offices, more expensive than the HQ but allowing access to the rank of CEO. The offices will also be the gateway to car import/export missions and the warehouse. While vehicle traffic missions will be a big source of income with relatively simple sell missions, the warehouse will allow you to generate big RP gains without neglecting the monetary gains. One luxury apartment will also have to be on the list of acquisitions because it allows you to launch different heists.
The offices will provide access to the warehouse and vehicle traffic missions
Other more expensive buildings may also be of interest, such as the complex, which provides access to the Doomsday Heist, or the arcade room which starts the Diamond Casino robbery. However, these robberies are very long and not very profitable given the time spent on preparation missions. They will therefore be reserved when the buildings mentioned above are acquired and will generate sufficient income.
The hangar and the nightclub are rather unprofitable buildings.. The hangar missions can sometimes be quite uninteresting and difficult for a gain not necessarily up to par. Nightclub entrances generate very little money, and the building is mostly used as a storage warehouse to recover stolen goods that sometimes appear on the map.
